Multiple SSL Versions
by Jeremy 22 May '09

22 May '09

Hi, Is there any way to make the sslVersion version take multiple options? I would like to restrict things to TLSv1 or SSLv3 but it seems only one option can be specified. I tried specifying this in the cipher section instead of ALL but couldn't seem to get it to work. Also here is something a little weird I've noticed, if anyone else has ran into it before and knows what's going on. With sites set to use TLSv1, sometimes while testing a HTTPS site using Firefox SSL (when both SSLv3 and TLSv1 is enabled in Firefox) sometimes the site won't come up. It feels like Firefox is using a weird SSL version to do the SSL certificate verification but once you trust the certificate it uses the right settings. I've set sslVersion = all, and trusted the SSL certificate in Firefox, then set sslVersion = TLSv1 again and I can get to the site ok at that point. Kind of weird. I'm probably just going to have to leave sslVersion = all, but Nessus and other security scans really like things locked down to just TLSv1 or SSLv3. stunnel: LOG5[17972:3086609296]: https-site01 accepted connection from 1.2.3.4:50878 stunnel: LOG3[17972:3086609296]: SSL_accept: 1408F10B: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number stunnel: LOG5[17972:3086609296]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 0 bytes sent to socket

Can't connect to Yahoo POP3

Hi, I wonder if you could possibly help me get Stunnel ver. 4.26 working with Yahoo.com email? I have been trying to get it working and can't see what the problem is. I do have it working with Gmail just fine. My email client is setup with: Email server 127.0.0.1 Email user: 127.0.0.1/11011/MuUserName(a)yahoo.com Email password: <InsertPassword> Port 9999 My email client is connecting to K9 K9 connects to Stunnel on port 11011 I'm running this in Win '98se I'm following the instructions to use Yahoo POP3 Free at: http://sajeevnairs.blogspot.com/2009/03/pop3-access-in-yahoo-mail-free.html I think it's saying: SSL alert (read): fatal: bad certificate How can I get a god certificate for Stunnel to use?

Preventing "choose a digital certificate" pop-up in IE
by Wallace Winfrey 08 May '09

Hello I have browsed the archives but have not found the answer to this question... I have stunnel set up to handle https connections. It sits on a CentOS server alongside HAProxy and works fine with every browser except for Internet Explorer. When I connect with Internet Explorer, I get a blank "Please choose a digital certificate" pop-up. I am pretty sure I have a configuration issue. Here's what I have: socket=l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket=r:TCP_NODELAY=1 options = NO_SSLv2 ciphers=ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM output = /var/log/stunnel.log [my.host.name] accept=my.external.IP:443 connect=127.0.0.1:8101 xforwardedfor=yes CAfile=/etc/stunnel/GlobalSign.pem cert=/etc/stunnel/my.host.name.pem verify=1 How do we turn off the request for the client certificate in IE?

patch: TCP keep-alive socket options
by Ludolf Holzheid 08 May '09

08 May '09

Dear list, the attached patch allows for tweaking the TCP keep-alive socket options on Linux 2.4 and later. Thanks to the groundwork laid by Michal, this got fairly trivial. We use this to keep NAT table entries alive for connections that are expected to have idle periods longer than the NAT time-outs of the routers in involved.

Odd termination of stunnel process...
by Robert Nickel 08 May '09

We've been happily using stunnel for quite some time now and have run into a strange problem. At seemingly random intervals, stunnel just freaks out an dies. I don't know if it's getting overwhelmed or what but I'm not seeing anything in the logs for stunnel or any other process. Any help is appreciated. Stunnel is being used to wrap a service that was written without use of the ssl libraries directly and connects to two remote web servers (that happen to be running on the same host, separate ports).

[PATCH] Fix undefined aliasing in libwrap.c
by Miloslav Trmac 02 May '09

02 May '09

Hello, The attached patch changes the code not to access a part of a char[...] array using an int *, which is undefined in ISO C. Using memcpy() is safe. I would have posted it on in the BTS, but it doesn't allow me even to log in... Thank you, Mirek

I was trying to get stunnel working with anonymous ciphers (SSL_DH_anon_WITH_RC4_MD5_128, etc.) from a java based client and found that s_server succeeded while stunnel failed with the "no shared ciphers" message because it has routines to initialize a temporary DH key in the absence of a certificate. Here's a sloppy patch that just borrows those routines from the s_server source code. This is against an older version of stunnel (RHEL4u7 based system), but the latest version also fails without similar patching.

aNULL ciphers
by Brian P Hinz 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi, Does stunnel support the use of the aNULL cipher suites? I can't seem to make it work, stunnel just fails with a "no shared ciphers" message. I don't think that the problem is with openssl or the client, since when I test it with s_server the handshake completes. Thanks, -brian

Issue resolving path to .conf using DFS and changing from "by name" to "by IP address"
by Peterson, Stephen 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

We use stunnel 4.20 and encountered a problem today and hope someone may be able to provide some insight to a solution. Our client machines are all Windows XP machines with stunnel started as a service. Those installs of stunnel have the path to the .conf as part of the path to the executable. The path to the .conf uses a DFS share. Our network administrator changed our DFS share from "by name" to "by IP address" and then the client services could not resolve the location of the .conf file when the services started on the next start up of client machines. Has anyone encountered this before and what did you do to fix it? Thanks for any assistance. Stephen

error during multithreaded operation
by Dale Kingsbury 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

OS: Windows 2003 SP2 SDK: 2003 R2 SDK We have a multithreaded application that uses a REST-style interface to an SSL-enabled UNIX box that only uses AES. I tried using WinHTTP, but unfortunately, AES is broken in the 2003 version of WinHTTP (confirmed by M$). SO, I hook up stunnel, which works fine when I only start one thread, but if I use more than 1 thread, I get the following error in the stunnel.log. Note that the error is on thread 7140, and the connection is immediately closed. I have retry logic that re-starts failed threads, and the restarted thread works the second time. (of course, the first has finished, so it is essentially running by itself.) The other item of interest is that each thread is sending about 500,000 bytes of data in chunks of 16,000 bytes, and my trace shows that it usually fails after having written more than 100,000 bytes successfully.

I've downloaded and installed the GUI version, "Process Explorer", on a test machine. I'm pleasantly surprised at its utility and light impact on system resources. One more question please: Will the Win32 binaries at the link you provided <ftp://stunnel.mirt.net/stunnel> keep up fairly closely with the latest OpenSSL releases? With OpenSSL so widely used it is constantly being evaluated for vulnerabilities. When they're found, it is patched quickly but dependent applications are sometimes slow to incorporate patched versions. Thanks again for your excellent help. ./Cal

OpenSSL Vulnerabilities
by Cal Webster 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

Will there be a security update of stunnel to address vulnerabilities outlined in CVE-2009-0590, CVE-2009-0591, and CVE-2009-0789? Alternatively, will stunnel use updated OpenSSL libraries on the host? It appears that this is true on Fedora RPM packages. For Example: ldd stunnel: ------------ libssl.so.7 => /lib64/libssl.so.7 (0x0000000006a3c000) libcrypto.so.7 => /lib64/libcrypto.so.7 (0x0000000007954000) ------------ rpm -q --requires stunnel ----------------------------------------- ... libcrypto.so.7 ... libssl.so.7 ... ----------------------------------------- rpm -ql openssl | egrep 'libcrypto.so.7|libssl.so.7' ----------------------------------------- /lib/libcrypto.so.7 /lib/libssl.so.7 ----------------------------------------- However, I don't know how to determine whether the same dependency works with Win32 dll's. For example, could we install "Win32 OpenSSL v0.9.8k Light" from the below link to resolve the vulnerabilities? http://www.slproweb.com/download/Win32OpenSSL_Light-0_9_8k.exe The description says that it "Installs the most commonly used essentials of Win32 OpenSSL v0.9.8k" but it doesn't say exactly what. Thanks for any insights or suggestions. Cal Webster

Updating OpenSSL used by stunnel
by Peter Droop 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

Hi, I am running stunnel 4.25 with openssl 0.9.8h on Windows 2003 Server. There are some security updates out for openssl, that are not available on stunnel.org. Can I update openssl by just replacing libeay32.dll and libssl32.dll in the stunnel installation directory? I downloaded the dlls from http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html. Thanks, Peter

GPL patches
by Michal Trojnara 01 Apr '09

01 Apr '09

Dear Users, I've just uploaded some patches sent to stunnel-users list over the years to ftp://stunnel.mirt.net/stunnel/contrib/. Please remember my policy is *not* to include any GPL code into the official stunnel distribution. If you're brave you're free to apply the patches yourself, or even create a fork of stunnel with some additional functionality. Just be aware there were already some security vulnerabilities (including remote code execution) discovered in the 3rd party stunnel patches. For this reason I also don't recommend stunnel package/port maintainers to include any 3rd party code with stunnel. Best regards, Mike

Can't get NTLM authentication to work with proxy connect.
by Rudy Ghani 01 Apr '09

01 Apr '09

Hi there, My stunnel client is on an Active Directory-authenticated XP workstation, which needs to connect via a web proxy that authenticates using NTLM. I populated my login details in protocolUsername and protocolPassword, but the connection just dies when it reaches the proxy server. Looking at the log, I get the following:- 2009.04.01 08:20:39 LOG6[2140:2892]: SSL connected: new session negotiated 2009.04.01 08:20:39 LOG6[2140:2892]: Negotiated ciphers: AES256-SHA SSLv3 Kx=RSA Au=RSA Enc=AES(256) Mac=SHA1 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:2708]: ssh3 accepted FD=356 from 127.0.0.1:1026 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:2708]: Creating a new thread 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:2708]: New thread created 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: ssh3 started 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: FD 356 in non-blocking mode 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: TCP_NODELAY option set on local socket 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG5[2140:3896]: ssh3 accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:1026 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: FD 472 in non-blocking mode 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: ssh3 connecting 129.32.20.14:8080 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: connect_wait: waiting 10 seconds 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: connect_wait: connected 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG5[2140:3896]: ssh3 connected remote server from 130.32.82.203:1027 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: Remote FD=472 initialized 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: TCP_NODELAY option set on remote socket 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG5[2140:3896]: Negotiations for connect (client side) started 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: -> CONNECT xxxx.ath.cx:443 HTTP/1.1 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: -> Host: xxxx.ath.cx:443 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: -> Proxy-Connection: keep-alive 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: -> Proxy-Authorization: NTLM TlRMTVNTUAABAAAAAgIAAA== 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: -> 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG3[2140:3896]: Unexpected socket close (fdgetline) 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG5[2140:3896]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 0 bytes sent to socket 2009.04.01 15:34:09 LOG7[2140:3896]: ssh3 finished (1 left) If I decode the NTLM auth string, I only get the NTLMSSP header, which seems to be incomplete. If I recall correctly the domain and workstation info should be passed on as well. So question is, how do I get this to work? Is there any specific format that I need to use when using the protocol* settings for NTLM? Thanks and regards.

SSL CTX use RSA Private Key error
by G K 27 Mar '09

27 Mar '09

Hello all. I am trying to set up stunnel for use on my machine. I shouldn't have a problem with iptables. But I do run tor/privoxy on a regular basis if that matters. I also have set up my gpg keys too. The following is the error I get. I did do some Googling but I'm not quite understanding what I'm looking for to change or modify. I know the error is the SSL CTX RSA private key.

stunnel 4.26 MS SQL connetion - works on Vista, not on XP
by zervakos 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

Greetings, I was wondering if anyone's come across anything like this. I want to encrypt connections for MS SQL Server 2008 Express from a Windows XP client to a Windows 2003 Server. Following these instructions: http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677 I was able to configure encrypted connections by pointing SQL Server Management Studio to 127.0.0.1 on _either_ XP or Vista and then that gets tunneled over to the Windows 2003 Server running SQL Server 2008 Express. I can browse the database tables, etc. Now the problem. I have users that make use of a thin client that connects directly to the SQL Server. It has one config file that I've pointed to 127.0.0.1. When I run this thin client on Vista, it works great, however, when running it on XP, stunnel tries to connect, but then gives up after several attempts. Here's what I see in the server log before connecting: 2009.03.23 12:26:59 LOG7[284564:274684]: RAND_status claims sufficient entropy for the PRNG 2009.03.23 12:26:59 LOG7[284564:274684]: PRNG seeded

earlier versions of stunnel, but I figured I'd just check and see if may anyone's run across something like this before. From what I can tell, the combination of XP, the thin client and stunnel does not work. The thin client does work on XP when I do not use stunnel, but I need to have the connection encrypted. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/stunnel-4.26-MS-SQL-connetion---works-on-Vista%2C-not… Sent from the Stunnel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [stunnel-users] Using stunnel in a box having http client and http server.

So, my understanding is that I will need one stunnel for each remote web server that my http client is going to connnect to. For example if my http client want to connect to 3 remote web servers. I will need to setup the folllowing stunnels: Remote https Web Server #1 <------------- Stunnel #1 <---------- http client (http://localhost:81) (port 81) Remote https Web Server #1 <------------- Stunnel #2 <---------- http client (http://localhost:82) (port 82) Remote https Web Server #1 <------------- Stunnel #3 <---------- http client (http://localhost:83) (port 83) But I will need only one stunnel for my http server as follow: Remote https client #1 ------------+-----> Stunnel --------------- http server | (port 443) (port 80) Remote https client #2 ------------+ | ..... | | Remote https client #N-------------+ Is the following config file correct for my http server stunnel? client=no accept=443 connect=localhost:80 Thank you! -Joe -----Original Message----- From: Christophe Nanteuil [mailto:christophe.nanteuil@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 3:19 AM To: Joe Lau Cc: stunnel-users(a)mirt.net Subject: Re: [stunnel-users] Using stunnel in a box having http client and http server. 2009/3/20 Joe Lau <Jlau(a)extremenetworks.com>: > > Hello, Hello, > I am new to this list. > > I am planning to use stunnel on my box which has a http client and http server running on it. > I will need two stunnel instances, one for the http client and one for the http server respectively.

Re: [stunnel-users] Using stunnel in a box having http client and http server.
by Joe Lau 20 Mar '09

Hello, I am new to this list. I am planning to use stunnel on my box which has a http client and http server running on it. I will need two stunnel instances, one for the http client and one for the http server respectively. For my http client, my stunnel config file looks like this: client=yes accept=80 connect=remote_web_server:443 For my http server, my stunnel config file looks like this: client=no accept=443 The problem I am facing is now I have two programs (i.e. 1) stunnel for http client and 2) http server) listening to the same port 80. How do I resolve this conflict? Thank you very much for the help.

Is this possible? Stunnel FIPS mode with rdesktop to secured Microsoft terminal server
by David W Blaine 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

Hi list, I was wondering if this solution is possible? Linux Linux Windows Server 2003 rdesktop ----> Stunnel client ------> Terminal Server no enc FIPS mode FIPS mode I know there is doco's about how to setup a Stunnel using client and server setups on either side but Windows admins here are unlikely to install Stunnel on their side. They have enabled FIPS mode on their Windows servers and disconnected all the Linux/UNIX admins from their Terminal Server. So I was wondering if I could get away with a client only solution? Dave

persistent SSL connection
by Dorai Ashok 16 Mar '09

16 Mar '09

Hi all, I was able to setup stunnel between two hosts successfully but the only problem I am facing is that, the SSL connection between the two hosts is not persistent. For every connection I make to the stunnel client, a new SSL connection is established by the stunnel client to the stunnel server. Is there a configuration variable in stunnel which can make the SSL connection between stunnel client and server persistent ? Thanks, -Dorai.
