OpenVPN with stunnel
by Heikki Lavaste 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

Hi, To bypass the office firewall to access home server, I'm trying to run openvpn over port 443 with stunnel. I managed to get to this point: Log on client side 2019.03.22 22:15:13 LOG5[38]: Connection closed: 352 byte(s) sent to TLS, 2067 byte(s) sent to socket 2019.03.22 22:15:19 LOG5[39]: Service [openvpn] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:51265 2019.03.22 22:15:19 LOG5[39]: s_connect: connected x.x.x.x:443 2019.03.22 22:15:19 LOG5[39]: Service [openvpn] connected remote server from x.x.x.x:51266 2019.03.22 22:15:19 LOG5[39]: Connection closed: 352 byte(s) sent to TLS, 2067 byte(s) sent to socket Log on server side: Mar 22 22:21:54 ssh-server-heikki stunnel[2797]: LOG5[2797:140127128753920]: connect_blocking: connected 127.0.0.1:8443 Mar 22 22:21:54 ssh-server-heikki stunnel[2797]: LOG5[2797:140127128753920]: Service [openvpn] connected remote server from 127.0.0.1:49366 Mar 22 22:21:54 ssh-server-heikki stunnel[2797]: LOG5[2797:140127128753920]: Connection closed: 2067 byte(s) sent to SSL, 352 byte(s) sent to socket Config: Client [openvpn] client = yes accept = localhost:1337 connect = x.x.x.xg:443 cert = C:\Users\heikki_lavaste\Documents\stunnel\stunnel.pem verifyChain = yes verify = 2 CAfile = C:\Users\heikki_lavaste\Documents\stunnel\ca-cert.pem checkHost = stunnel.heikki-lab.local sslVersion = TLSv1 Server chroot = /var/run/stunnel sslVersion = TLSv1 pid = /stunnel.pid setuid = nobody setgid = nobody socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 cert = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem [openvpn] accept = 443 connect = localhost:8443 cert = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem The issue is probably nothing to do with stunnel but if somebody can help me figure this out, that'd be appreciated. Kind Regards Heikki

ERR_SSL_VERSION_INTERFERENCE on Google Chrome v 73.0.3683.86 and stunnel v5.51b1
by Kolan Koala 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

I cannot get TLS 1.3 to work with Chrome. TLS 1.3 works fine in firefox quantum v 66.0.1 over the same hardware, so this is not caused by middleboxes. It is a fault with stunnel or Chrome. ERR_SSL_VERSION_INTERFERENCE error occurs in Chrome and will not connect. For now the solution is to turn off TLS v1.3 in stunnel configuration and force TLS v1.2, but this is not a long term solution. Does anyone have a solution to use TLS 1.3 with chrome and stunnel together? Kolan

No more Win32 stunnel?
by John Hall 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

I've only just discovered that stunnel is seemingly no longer being updated for Win32; at any rate there has been no version 5.50 released for Win32. It would have been nice if there had been an announcement to that effect, as until now I was only subscribed to the announcements mailing list and had thus been in blissful ignorance. (For some reason I never saw ANY announcement for 5.50 - in fact I still seem to be on 5.47.) Given that there are a number of ports to different OSs by various people, is there any chance that someone might supply a Win32 port for future versions? (Sadly I lack the knowledge to do that myself.) -- John Hall

Verify peer immediately
by Phillip Hellewell 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

Hi, I have verifyPeer = yes in my client stunnel.conf. Is there any way to make it verify the peer right away instead of waiting until a connection is made (to the accept port)? I run stunnel with foreground = yes and would like it to exit right away if the peer doesn't have the appropriate cert/key. Thanks, Phillip

I have 5.30 running on Ubuntu workstation. It has become sluggish and almost non responsive at times. I captured this in the log the other day...no source, no destination address.

Hi, I have to create tunnel between server and client. Client have proxy configured in between. So i use below in /etc/stunnel/stunnel.config pid = /var/run/stunnel.pid cert = /home/client.crt key = /home/client.key options = NO_SSLv2 debug = 7 output = /var/log/stunnel4/stunnel.log client = yes CAfile=/home/**chain.pem verify=2 [test] protocol = connect accept = 127.0.0.1:10000 protocolHost = server.xxxx.com:443 connect = <PROXYIP>:<PROXY port> protocolUsername = user1 protocolPassword = password protocolAuthentication = Basic then i bring up the service. With above configuration connection works file. Now i don't want proxy password to be clear text in this case. Any pointers plz Thanks, Vj

FIPS in stunnel and OpenSSL The actual cause of the problem is OpenSSL v1.1.x does not support FIPS engine and as such, you can only use a FIPS Compliant cipher until FIPS is recertified as I understand it Andruw Smalley Loadbalancer.org Ltd. www.loadbalancer.org +1 888 867 9504 / +44 (0)330 380 1064 asmalley(a)loadbalancer.org Leave a Review | Deployment Guides | Blog Andruw Smalley Loadbalancer.org Ltd. www.loadbalancer.org +1 888 867 9504 / +44 (0)330 380 1064 asmalley(a)loadbalancer.org Leave a Review | Deployment Guides | Blog On Mon, 4 Mar 2019 at 16:20, <stunnel-users-request(a)stunnel.org> wrote: > > Send stunnel-users mailing list submissions to > stunnel-users(a)stunnel.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://www.stunnel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/stunnel-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > stunnel-users-request(a)stunnel.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > stunnel-users-owner(a)stunnel.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of stunnel-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

dhparam and others
by mlrx 02 Mar '19

02 Mar '19

Hello, This is my first run with stunnel. I have unbound and stunnel on openBSD to do DNS-over-TLS and it works (fine). I want now to enforce TLS security so I added the following options: sslVersion = TLSv1.2 options = CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE ciphers = [list] curve = [name] When it will be ready to production, I will add: verify = 3 CA* OCSP* For now, I don't find any information about using dhparam file. Something like SSLOpenSSLConfCmd DHParameters "/path/to/file.pem" in Apache. How can I do it possible? Could you point me some informations or the path to do it please? Could you confirm that I can't use TLS1.3 for now in stunnel? May be you could have some security advices ? Best regards, -- mlrx
