Gmail POP3 retrieval, SSL-Error and Cert Chain
by Tobias Ruch 24 Feb '15

Hi, I want to use stunnel to enable ssl on port 995. Unfortunately, I got "SSL error: Unable to verify the first certificate." when using the gmail pop3 retrieval My Certificate is signed by wosign and included in the mozialla truststore list. https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html gives me a grad A for my apache configuration and chrome and firefox are also fine with this certificate. So it's no self signed one. For a test I have configured stunnel to serve https. I get than the message that the chain is incomplete. According to https://www.digicert.com/ssl-support/gmail-pop3-troubleshooting.htm this could be one reason for this error. My Apache-config looks like this SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/mydomain.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl//mydomain.key SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/1_root_bundle.crt SSLCACertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/ca-certs.pem for stunnel I used cert = /etc/apache2/ssl/mydomain.crt key = /etc/apache2/ssl//mydomain.key CAfile = /etc/apache2/ssl/1_root_bundle.crt or ca-certs.pem (I have tried both). What is the a similar configuration in stunnel? The Post https://www.stunnel.org/pipermail/stunnel-users/2010-February/002594.html mentioned, that the chain must be completely in the crt-file. But a description how to achieve this is missing and I found no other resources describing this. Thanks a lot Tobias

Stunnel for EWS servers?

HI, We are already using stunnel as SSL wrapper for retrieving emails from POP3 servers to our application server. In future the mailboxes are planned to be migrated to EWS servers. Would like to know if stunnel holds good for EWS servers as well. Regards,Shanmuganathan

TLSv1 - Linux vs Windows ?
by Brian Ipsen 16 Feb '15

16 Feb '15

Hi I have a strange issue with stunnel 5.09 - which connects up to a F5 loadbalancer/SSL-offloading engine. In my config, I specify that the protocol must be TLSv1 - from Linux, I can connect - but it does not work from Windows.. Linux log: 2015.02.10 15:58:29 LOG7[22779]: Service [rb20] accepted (FD=3) from 127.0.0.1:33247 2015.02.10 15:58:29 LOG7[22887]: Service [rb20] started 2015.02.10 15:58:29 LOG5[22887]: Service [rb20]

stunnel transparent mode stuck in timeout
by shushant.kakkar＠lhsystems.com 09 Feb '15

Hi, we would like to use stunnel in transpartent mode. Therefore we already applied iptable changes as mentioned in the man page : Re-write address to appear as if wrapped daemon is connecting from the SSL client machine instead of the machine running stunnel. This option is currently available in: remote mode (I<connect> option) on Linux >=2.6.28 Linux >=2.6.28 requires the following setup for iptables and routing (possibly in /etc/rc.local or equivalent file): iptables -t mangle -N DIVERT iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m socket -j DIVERT iptables -t mangle -A DIVERT -j MARK --set-mark 1 iptables -t mangle -A DIVERT -j ACCEPT ip rule add fwmark 1 lookup 100 ip route add local 0.0.0.0/0 dev lo table 100 However the connection to the services cannot be established and we run into a timeout. 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568909760]: ldaps-in accepted FD=12 from xxxxxx:51018 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: ldaps-in started 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: FD 12 in non-blocking mode 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: Waiting for a libwrap process 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: Acquired libwrap process #0 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: Releasing libwrap process #0 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: Released libwrap process #0 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: ldaps-in permitted by libwrap from xxxxxxx:51018 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG5[6658:139940568905472]: ldaps-in accepted connection from xxxxxxx:51018 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): before/accept initialization 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read client hello A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write server hello A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write certificate A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write server done A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 flush data 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read client key exchange A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read finished A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write change cipher spec A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write finished A 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 flush data 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 1 items in the session cache 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 client connects (SSL_connect()) 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 client connects that finished 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 client renegotiations requested 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 1 server connects (SSL_accept()) 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 1 server connects that finished 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 server renegotiations requested 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 session cache hits 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 external session cache hits 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 session cache misses 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: 0 session cache timeouts 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG6[6658:139940568905472]: SSL accepted: new session negotiated 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG6[6658:139940568905472]: Negotiated ciphers: AES256-SHA SSLv3 Kx=RSA Au=RSA Enc=AES(256) Mac=SHA1 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: FD 13 in non-blocking mode 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG6[6658:139940568905472]: local_bind succeeded on the original port 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG6[6658:139940568905472]: connect_blocking: connecting 127.0.0.1:10389 2015.02.09 10:00:03 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: connect_blocking: s_poll_wait 127.0.0.1:10389: waiting 10 seconds 2015.02.09 10:00:13 LOG3[6658:139940568905472]: connect_blocking: s_poll_wait 127.0.0.1:10389: timeout 2015.02.09 10:00:13 LOG5[6658:139940568905472]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 0 bytes sent to socket 2015.02.09 10:00:13 LOG7[6658:139940568905472]: ldaps-in finished (0 left) Any idea why the timeout is occuring?

stunnel keeps using SSLv3 even after disabling it
by Or Yarimi 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

Hi, I'm using stunnel to communicate with FIX server. In order to do that, I disabled SSLv2 and SSLv3 and set the sslVersion to TLSv1. It seems like stunnel keeps trying using SSLv3 handshake, which isn't working. This is the configuration: client = yes debug = 7 output=stunnel.log cert = stunnel.pem ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ; Turning for LMAX options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 [LMAX-fix-tunnel-DEMO-Trading] sslVersion = TLSv1 accept = 40001 connect = fix-ate.lmaxtrader.com:443 stunnel log: 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG7[12516]: Service [LMAX-fix-tunnel-DEMO-MktData] started 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG5[12516]: Service [LMAX-fix-tunnel-DEMO-MktData] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:59475 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG6[12516]: s_connect: connecting 91.215.165.69:443 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG7[12516]: s_connect: s_poll_wait 91.215.165.69:443: waiting 10 seconds 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG5[12516]: s_connect: connected 91.215.165.69:443 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG5[12516]: Service [LMAX-fix-tunnel-DEMO-MktData] connected remote server from 10.0.0.62:59476 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG7[12516]: Remote socket (FD=620) initialized 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG6[12516]: SNI: sending servername: fix-md-ate.lmaxtrader.com 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG7[12516]: SSL state (connect): before/connect initialization 2015.02.04 12:10:31 LOG7[12516]: SSL state (connect): SSLv3 write client hello A Already burned around 4 hours understanding what I'm doing wrong, will be glad if you could help me.

Can't compile stunnel 5.10 on Linux ... got fatal signal 11 error
by amontaron 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

Hi everybody ! I tried to compile stunnel 5.10 (latest) on my old Suse 7 Linux distrib and got "a fatal signal 11 error message" when doing the make command. Just before, openssl 1.0.2 (latest) compile fine with no errors. Also, I add some stuffs like xemacs 21.4.22 (latest) just to say that that rather old distrib is able to do all that :-D So, here is the latest messages from make I got : > Making all in src > make[1]: Entering directory `/root/stunnel-5.10/src' > make all-am > make[2]: Entering directory `/root/stunnel-5.10/src' > source='stunnel.c' object='stunnel-stunnel.o' libtool=no \ > DEPDIR=.deps depmode=gcc /bin/sh ../auto/depcomp \ > gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/usr/kerberos/include > -I/usr/local/ssl/include -DLIBDIR='"/usr/local/lib/stunnel"' > -DCONFDIR='"/usr/local/etc/stunnel"' -g -O2 -pthread -Wall > -Wformat=2 -Wconversion -Wno-long-long -Wno-deprecated-declarations > -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -c -o stunnel-stunnel.o `test -f 'stunnel.c' || > echo './'`stunnel.c > In file included from /usr/include/string.h:346, > from common.h:201, > from stunnel.c:38: > /usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strsep_g': > /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: warning: passing arg 2 of > `__strpbrk_c2' with different width due to prototype > /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: warning: passing arg 3 of > `__strpbrk_c2' with different width due to prototype > /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: warning: passing arg 2 of > `__strpbrk_c3' with different width due to prototype > /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: warning: passing arg 3 of > `__strpbrk_c3' with different width due to prototype > /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: warning: passing arg 4 of > `__strpbrk_c3' with different width due to prototype > gcc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11 > make[2]: *** [stunnel-stunnel.o] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/stunnel-5.10/src' > make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/stunnel-5.10/src' > make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Previously got lots of warning messages. Perhaps need "make report" also ? I've look at stunnel-users(a)stunnel.org mail archive up to July 2011 with no success. So, that's why I'm writting to you there... Then, I tried different versions of stunnel 4.xx like 4.00, 4.56, 4.28 and more. All simply don't compile with differents errors messages. The only one I could compile completly is stunnel 3.22 (so latest 3.xx) Note that I'm happy with that because I was running stunnel 3.3 just before and that everything works with the latest openssl version I download and everything works fine for what I would ! Remark: Suse7 distrib (not OpenSuse) is Linux 2.2.16 kernel (not latest :-D) Alex. PS: Another things, on the same machine I ran stunnel 4.56 on (old) Windows 98 with no problems. --- Ce courrier électronique ne contient aucun virus ou logiciel malveillant parce que la protection avast!

stunnel log shows SSLv3 protocol level even when TLSv1 was negotiated
by christian.tenvenne＠lhsystems.com 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

I'm running stunnel in server-mode with options "NO_SSLV2" and "NO_SSLV3" and sslVersion=all. My client also explicitly disables SSLv2 and SSLv3. My client's ssl-log (-Djavax.net.debug=ssl) confirms that, during handshake and for application data, the highest TLS protocol version is being used.

Hi Mike, thanks for your fast response, but I think there is a big issue. The latest version that is available in the CENTOS 6 Base Repo is "stunnel-4.29-3.el6_6.1.x86_64" - In this version the SSLv3 is disabled by default, but there is not option to enable it.

Hi Mike, yes your correct, but I have forced the installation with "stunnel-4.29-3.el6_4.x86_64" ( all other packages openssl, etc. updated) and SSLv3 is working again. So, for my understanding there must be a bug or they have disabled SSLv3 in version "stunnel-4.29-3.el6_6.1.x86_64".

Anyway, if you connect stunnel with some software that's so old that it doesn't support TLS, the software is almost certainly no longer supported, and most likely vulnerable to attacks. This is a serious risk! Mike On 29.01.2015 11:58, Sebastian Ochsenkühn wrote: Hi Mike, thanks for your fast response, but I think there is a big issue.

Currently i have installed an older version, where the SSLv3 protocoll is not disabled by default. Is there anything that I'm doing wrong?

Hi, I have a big problem with the new stunnel version on CentOS 6.6 (stunnel-4.29-3.el6_6.1.x86_64) that is available in the CentOS base repository. You describe in your documentation that SSLv3 is disabled by default. -> OK for me, but I need SSLv3 and the option with -NO_SSLv3 is not working?!

Blue Iris
by Patrick wickline 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

I have stunnel set up on my machine. It works locally and lets me connect to my Blue Iris server with https. However, I am unable to do this remotely. I have forwarded the port in my router to stunnel, from stunnel to blue iris, but still doesn't work. Below is part of my conf file [Blue Iris] accept = 8344 (forwarded this in the router to my static IP of my machine) connect = 127.0.0.1:8081 (8081 is my blue iris web server) I hope someone is able to give some advice

Re: [stunnel-users] No DNS lookup?
by Colin van der Zanden 21 Jan '15

Ludolf, Thanks for your quick response. I have no clue on how to respond on the stunnel users list, so i'll try it this way. The support on the host we are trying to reach states to following: It really sounds like the stunnel is not connecting to "something.host.com" but perhaps to the IP address behind it? The use of the hostname something.host.com is however an requirement. Is there anyway we can force the stunnel to connect to the hostname instead of resolving it as an IP adress?

No DNS lookup?
by Colin vd Zanden 20 Jan '15

20 Jan '15

Hi, We've got a bit of a problem working with Stunnel. We are trying to connect to a domain, but the stunnel is somehow translating it to a IP adres. (We didn't know, we saw it in the log file). This is causing our connection to fail. Is there any way to prevent stunnel from translating the domain into a IP, and just connect to the domain name?

HTTPS support for the webserver using STUNNEL
by Siva Kumar 13 Jan '15

13 Jan '15

Hi All, I am fairly new to stunnel and also to the networking concepts. Currently we are working on a surveillance device running on monta vista linux on the ARM11 architecture. We have crossed compiled and deployed a THTTPD server which is working fine. Once you connect to the device using any of the web client (from a windows PC), it will take you to a web page where you can select and stream live video's from all the camera's connected to the device. So far everything is working fine now.. Now the real problem is that we need to support https as well along with http. Since THTTPD web server doesn't support secure connection we thought we would accomplish that using the stunnel application. We were able to download and cross compile the stunnel application for the device. Now the doubts I have here is:- 1) Do we need a stunnel server application running on the windows PC from where we will be using the web browser to connect to the client? 2) Where should be the stunnel server and stunnel client be running. I mean should the linux device be running the stunnel client and the windows PC be running the stunnel server? In that case what should be the correct accept and connect parameters in the stunnel.conf file in both the device and the windows PC? 3) Since the device and the machine can have any random IP and port, so is it feasible to dynamically set the accept and connect parameters in the stunnel.conf file? 4) Can the stunnel be considered as a solution to the problem which I have reported here. The point 3 above makes me thing otherwise. I have tried all combinations mentioned in the point 1 and 2 without success. In none of the case my web browser was able to talk to the device using HTTPS (ie https://my_device_ip) I could see a "client hello" request from the browser to which the client sends an ACK and RST. In some combination an HTTPS request from the browser only triggered a TCP connection request for which the client responded with ACK and RST. Sorry for the long mail. Any inputs would be deeply appreciated. Regards, Siva

Using stunnel to secure clients instead of servers
by Leon Smith 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

Hi, this may be a slightly unusual request, but I was curious if stunnel could be used for securing clients that do not support TLS, to connect to services that optionally support TLS. So, really, stunnel already does almost everything that would be needed; except that in this use case, it would be listening for incoming unencrypted connections, and then serve as a proxy to an encrypted connection to the actual service. While it might be nice to offer certificate-based authentication options in this scenario, it wouldn't be necessary for my intended use case, so stunnel wouldn't need access to any private certificates. However, certificate pinning would be pretty essential to what I have in mind. Best, Leon.

RHEL6 Update stunnel-4.29-3.el6_6.1 breaks functionality?

Hello I realized that the latest RHEL6 updates including stunnel-4.29-3.el6_6.1 break our Stunnel connections! We are forced to go back to previous version stunnel-4.29-3.el6_4 in order to have the systems running again, and blocking Stunnel updates in /etc/yum.conf for the moment. Our typical client config and server configs are as follows: Client (5.08): ********** client = yes compression = zlib sslversion = TLSv1 delay = yes debug = 7 taskbar = yes cert = my.pem [abas_ssh] accept = 127.0.30.10:5303 connect = firewall.client.dom:5303 Server, xinetd.d: ************* service stunnel_ssh { disable = no socket_type = stream instances = UNLIMITED per_source = UNLIMITED wait = no user = root server = /usr/bin/stunnel server_args = /etc/stunnel/stunnel_ssh.conf log_on_success += HOST DURATION log_on_failure += HOST } Server, stunnel_ssh.conf **************** cert = /support/stunnel/cert/server.pem CApath = / support /stunnel/hash/ verify = 3 debug = 7 connect = 192.168.1.100:22 The error thrown is something like: Dec 17 17:30:23 srvabas stunnel: LOG3[3385:140171595282368]: SSL_accept: 140760FC: error:140760FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:unknown protocol What are we missing?

Ordinal not found error on new Stunnel install
by Tracy Drake - IQ-C 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hello Michal! We have just pushed/began to push Stunnel version 5.04 to our user community. This version was extensively tested, pushed/installed on a number of machines both with an older version of Stunnel and no Stunnel at all. We are having a barrage of users encountering the below error. [image: Inline image 1] Can you offer insight/a quick resolution? Bear in mind that although I support the apps that require Stunnel I know very little about the ins and outs of Stunnel. I did google this error and found something to the effect that a newer version of the LIBEAY32.dll is required. Does this perhaps mean that this file did not get replaced on these machines. We were previously running quite an older version - 4.27. Please advise asap! -- Tracy Drake CSM Senior Consultant GSA-FAS CAMEO Contractor URSA & INFOConnect Support & Training Team Lead 704-987-1211 tracy.drake(a)gsa.gov

In building the stunnel package from the port in FreeBSD 10.1, is it more secure to enable SSL_PORT? In particular, will that ensure that stunnel is using the latest openssl release? And if that is so, why is that build option disabled by default?

Stunnel for android
by Neacsu Mihai Adrian 03 Dec '14

03 Dec '14

Hello everyone. I am new to Stunnel, but i would like to compile a working version for Android L. The android version on the website is not compiled with PIE support, thus it does not run on Android L. I tried to look through the source code, and add the flags, -fPie and -pie, but i did not figure out where to do that. Also, after settings 755 on build-android.sh and running it, i get Permission denied on creating folders inside the /bin/android folder, even if i am running as root user. Any help is highly appreciated and i appologize if this has been already write in the archives, but i was not able to find anything related.

Hello, colleagues! I suppose there is a memory leak on stunnel reconfiguration when it receives the SIGHUP signal.

SSLscan does not display a certificate when connecting to stunnel
by Swonk, Glenn 15 Nov '14

15 Nov '14

When I open a connection to display the certificate, it works from openssl. openssl s_client -connect x58.swonk.com:444 However, when I use SSLScan, it only displays the supported server ciphers. SSLScan.exe --no-failed --sslv3 x58.swonk.com:444 I am troubleshooting a problem with a device which cannot connect directly to my https server and am trying to use stunnel to either forward the connection or help understand why it isn't working. The strange thing is that the 'Charles Proxy' (http://www.charlesproxy.com/) seems to forward the requests properly. Can anyone download a copy of SSLscan and test it against their connection?

External validation of client certificates
by Rene Bartsch 15 Nov '14

15 Nov '14

Hi, we're having a special use case and hope to find a solution in stunnel. In our use case clients use self-signed X.509 certificates to authenticate with our TLS-server. We don't have a CA but a database with usernames (DN) and fingerprints of the client-certificates. Is it possible with stunnel not to validate the client certificates against a CA but handover the Distinguished Name to an external application which returns the fingerprint to check the certificate against? -- Best regards, Rene Bartsch, B.

How to enable weak ciphers in stunnel

15 Nov '14

When I run stunnel, I would like to enable the weaker ciphers and protocols (SSLv3) for testing purposes. However, adding options to the stunnel.conf file doesn't seem to return new ciphers during the negotiation (using sslscan to generate the report). I have look through the documentation and it doesn't seem to address these options very well.

capi, other engines not found at runtime

When I run stunnel.exe, and have engine=capi in my stunnel.conf file, i get the following [ ] Enabling support for engine 'capi' [!] error queue: 2606A074: error:2606A074:engine routines:ENGINE_by_id:no such engine [!] error queue: 260B6084: error:260B6084:engine routines:DYNAMIC_LOAD:dso not found [!] error queue: 25070067: error:25070067:DSO support routines:DSO_load:could not load the shared library [!] ENGINE_by_id: 25078067: error:25078067:DSO support routines:WIN32_LOAD:could not load the shared library [!] Line 17: "engine = capi": Failed to open the engine Is this something wrong at link time in my compile? I used a precompiled version of OpenSSL, and modified this: SSLDIR=C:\OpenSSL-Win32 INCDIR=$(SSLDIR)\include LIBDIR=$(SSLDIR)\lib I thought that was all that would be needed, but apparently not. I then tried to go to make this modification: SSLLIBS=/LIBPATH:"$(LIBDIR)" libeay32.lib ssleay32.lib capi.lib thinking that maybe I need to explicitly add capi in, and again it compiles, but does not run. I have also tried to move the capi.dll from the LIBDIR into the same folder as the stunnel executable to make sure it was found, and I still have had no luck. Any ideas?

Truncated responses with stunnel >= 5.05
by Tuomas Silen 07 Nov '14

07 Nov '14

Hi there, After upgrading to stunnel 5.07 I've seen a lot of truncated http responses. I've tested different versions and 5.04 is the last one to work fine. There seems to be fixes to a similar issue in 5.05, but at least for me the result seems to be the opposite. I'm on Ubuntu 12.04. Looking at the logs, the log entries are identical except for one part, the amount of data sent to SSL: stunnel >= 5.05, not working: LOG3[31153]: transfer: s_poll_wait: TIMEOUTclose exceeded: closing LOG5[31153]: Connection closed: 67584 byte(s) sent to SSL, 184 byte(s) sent to socket stunnel 5.04, works: LOG3[6248]: transfer: s_poll_wait: TIMEOUTclose exceeded: closing LOG5[6248]: Connection closed: 113051 byte(s) sent to SSL, 184 byte(s) sent to socket It's worth noting that in both cases the closing happens after TIMEOUTclose has exceeded (probably because of a missing close notify?). In any case, apparently less data is sent to SSL and that's how it seems like; the end of the http responses get truncated. If everything's very fast (e.g. localhost connections only) the problem seems not to happen, not very often at least. With connections between two servers I've been able to reproduce it pretty much every time in my setup (stunnel -> haproxy -> apache -> unicorn). Undefining the POLLRDHUP or reverting the changes in 5.05 to src/client.c seem to fix the problem for me. Any ideas what would be a proper fix? Thanks! Best regards, Tuomas Silen

[BUG] SSL directory scan breaks cross-compilation
by John Spencer 05 Nov '14

05 Nov '14

it seems between 5.02 and 5.06 a "SSL directory scan" was introduced. for main_dir in /usr/local /usr/lib /usr/pkg /opt/local /opt /usr; do for sub_dir in /ssl /openssl /; do check_ssl_dir "$main_dir$sub_dir" && break 2 this ofc breaks cross-compilation. the concept of searching for a library directory is completely broken. if just adding -lssl -lcrypto to LDFLAGS doesnt find the openssl libraries at link time, the user's compiler toolchain is wrongly set up, and its not the job of a package to work around that by searching through a number of directories. it's the user's job to fix his toolchain by supplying the right -L paths in case he's got his library installed in a non-standard location. also, there's pkg-config (which supports crosscompilation via a PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR env var) in case a library needs elaborate CFLAGS. --JS

The debug messages produced by stunnel can sometimes be confusing. They are intended to be helpful to developers, and not end-users. OpenSSL implements the SSL/TLS/DTLS protocols with three separate finite state machines: SSLv2, SSLv3, and DTLS1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automata-based_programming All TLS protocols use the SSLv3 state machine, thus the state name does not reflect the actual protocol being negotiated.
