Thank you. I tried the new version. Between 10:15 and 10:50 stunnel private bytes grew by ~ 85 MB. Log entries regarding "possible memory leak" look like this at the beginning: 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\tasn_new.c:179: 71652 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\asn1_lib.c:412: 70978 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_object.c:346: 55283 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_object.c:315: 55283 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\asn1_lib.c:376: 56826 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\stack\stack.c:162: 13761 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\stack\stack.c:187: 11448 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\buffer\buffer.c:118: 11172 allocations 2016.04.20 10:17:01 LOG4[937]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\tasn_new.c:342: 10501 allocations ..and later like this: 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\tasn_new.c:179: 182132 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\asn1_lib.c:412: 181243 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_object.c:346: 138968 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_object.c:315: 138968 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\asn1_lib.c:376: 144407 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\stack\stack.c:162: 35294 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\stack\stack.c:187: 29760 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\buffer\buffer.c:118: 28186 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\tasn_new.c:342: 27649 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\bn\bn_lib.c:303: 27405 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\buffer\buffer.c:74: 18971 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\x_name.c:136: 18967 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\x_name.c:383: 18967 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_int.c:208: 18406 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\asn1\a_bitstr.c:158: 18433 allocations 2016.04.20 10:51:04 LOG4[2658]: Possible memory leak at .\crypto\bn\bn_lib.c:272: 13616 allocations If there is anything else I can do, please let me know. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: stunnel-users [mailto:stunnel-users-bounces@stunnel.org] Im Auftrag von Michal Trojnara Gesendet: Dienstag, 19.

Your suspicion looks plausible. I have added a heuristic algorithm that identifies excessive memory allocations. Please try stunnel-5.32b2: https://www.stunnel.org/downloads.html The logged warnings should allow identification of the leak source.

Stunnel and Eudora error
by EPPack 14 Apr '16

14 Apr '16

I installed stunnel on one of my laptops a few days ago, and it installed uneventfully. I set up one of my gmail accounts in Eudora per directions I got from another Eudora user, and the account works perfectly in Eudora. However, on this machine, I got an unexpected prompt that showed up in a cmd window during the install, which did NOT show up on the other machine: WARNING: can't open config file: /devel/win32/openssl/openssl.cnf Generating a 2048 bit RSA private key ...+++ ..................+++ Writing new private key to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\stunnel\config\stunnel.pem' ---- You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated into your certificate request. What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN. There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank for some fields there will be a default value, If you enter '.', the field will be left blank. ---- Country Name (2 letter code) [PL]: When I try for an inbound in Eudora, I get the "Error reading from network. Cause: connection aborted due to timeout or other failure (10053). Problem of course is that I'm also unsure if it installed fully/correctly. On the other machine, it installed itself uneventfully as a service, and after I started it (it came in as manual, unstarted), it was fine. This time, tho, it didn't show up in the list of services at all, even tho there was a prompt to start it, which I allowed it to do. That said, I did see it in the start menu, and was able to start it. I also rebooted, and it started up OK. However, after configuring one of my accounts the same way as on the other machine, it's not working, getting the timeout error above. Changed it back to the normal settings for GMail in Eudora, it worked fine, so it wasn't any other cause. I tried adding options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS to the conf, hopefully in the right place :) and also bumped the Eudora Advanced Network params as also suggested.Nada. The only difference between the two machines, both Windows 7 Pro, is that this one is a 64bit, the other not, which may well be the difference. As I'm new to stunnel, I looked for the manual, but got a 403 on the page.

Hello, My name is Mohamed Aymen, i'm an electronic payment engineer . I recently descovered Stunnel and i'm trying to make some developement and modifications and i need your help with points bellow: 1-steps for compilation on IBM AIX-7 plateform 2-possibility of adding a new source code file(.c) and compiling it with native stunnel files ===some clarifications about source code : 3-i would appreciate if you can indicate me : where exactly in source code i can find the code responsible for accepting buffer from client and the code responsible for accepting buffer (response) from server, also the code responsible for sending data to server and the code responsible for sending server's answer to client (all those on socket mode,on ssl mode and on tls mode) warm regards

Memory Leak in stunnel 5.31
by Fritz Gschwendner 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hello, we have a memory leak with stunnel 5.31 in server mode on Windows Server 2012. Page File Bytes of the stunnel process keep growing. The more traffic the faster it's growing, until memory is exhausted and client connects start to fail with: 2016.03.31 15:50:30 LOG3[main]: _beginthread: Exec format error (8) 2016.03.31 15:50:30 LOG3[main]: Connection rejected: create_client failed I suspect it has something to do with clients not closing the connection correctly. We have a lot of connections ending like this: 2016.03.31 09:21:48 LOG3[5156]: SSL_shutdown: Connection reset by peer (WSAECONNRESET) (10054) 2016.03.31 09:21:48 LOG5[5156]: Connection reset: 239 byte(s) sent to SSL, 722 byte(s) sent to socket Is my suspicion plausible? Can you recommend a change in the configuration to avoid this issue? Anything else I can do to debug? The config looks something like this: cert = C:\crt.pem key = C:\key.key ciphers = ALL:!DH:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 verify = 2 CAfile = C:\All-In-One.pem [test] accept = 23456 connect = 10.10.10.10

Incoming port ignored
by Ivan De Masi 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hello, I have a strange problem with my stunnel since a view days: I installed stunnel, because my AV-Scanner (Avira) is not able to scan e-mail traffic of encrypted connections to my mailprovider. So I configured both mail-clients (Thunderbird & Outlook) and AV-Scanner to listen on localhost and stunnel to connect to my mailprovider. This was working fine for a view days, but stoped some days ago and I'm not shure why. Maybe when I installed stunnel as a daemon I run into trouble (will bw another subject). The encrypted connection to my mailprovider is working and e-mails are recived and sent, but the AV-scanner doesn't "see" them anymore. I examined the log and what makes me wonder is, that the when fetching the e-mails, the configured ports (110/143/25) seem to be ignored: "Service [df-pop3s] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:1878" or "Service [df-pop3s] accepted (FD=472) from 127.0.0.1:1882" The mails on my host are always bypassed on another port (the longer I run stunnel they change/increase) - see the log file. I have installed latest stunnel version (5.31) on Windows 7 (x86). Any ideas? Kind regards, Ivan Main-config: [df-pop3s] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:110 connect = sslin.df.eu:995 verify = 3 CAfile = peer-df-pop3s.pem checkHost = sslin.df.eu OCSPaia = yes [df-imaps] client =

Host1: [secure_telnet] accept = local:23 connect = host3:host3port1 client = yes Host3: [incoming_telnet] accept = host3:host3port1 connect = local:23 client = no If e.g. Host3 isn't directly reachable from Host1, a simple port forwarding (without decryption and re-encryption) on Host2 would suffice.

Connecting stunnels
by Juhasz Gabor 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hi, I am newbie in stunnel world so sorry for my question if it was already answered earlier. I have the following task to solve somehow : We have 1 server with 2 stunnel connections (any kind). We have e.g. http communicatoin via tunnels. Is there any support in stunnel to connect them somehow. Probably we do not need bidirectional communication. [client1]----- stunnel 1---> [server]------stunnel2 ----->[client2] So [client1] --> [client2] If there is no support in stunnel do you have any idea how to do it? Kind regards, Gabor

Please help

Installed stunnel-5.31 (stunnel-5.31-installer) so that I can get MT4, a Forex trade platform, to send me mails to my Gmail account. I was told this was necessary because MT4 doesn't support SSL Authentication. I attempted to start and received this; [image: Inline image 1] It looks like a config file issue but also would not bind? Is this one issue? I was told all I needed to do with the config file is this; [image: Inline image 2] Can you please simply help me with the config file? I'm lost and need help. Thanks to all in advance for your help.

Using stunnel for TLS with Geotrust cert?
by Jon Bogaty 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

Hey stunnel-users, I'm having an issue both on stunnel4 and on 5 which I think is more related to a lack of understanding of the difference between how stunnel uses intermediate chain certs and root CA certs. I have from Geotrust, who signs my SSL certs, an intermediate.crt which by the stunnel docs should be catted into one stunnel.pem with the cert for my domain and the private key. The issue is when I setup everything on the server and try to connect with a client I either get for "verify 2" warnings about MiTM authentication problems, or for "verify 3" or "verify 4", which should disable CA checking altogether to my understanding, "Please specify CApath". I feel like I'm missing something critical in terms of pieces. The goal is to use stunnel as a proxy for mysql and the conf is pretty barebones: sslVersion = TLSv1 setuid = stunnel4 setgid = stunnel4 pid = /var/lib/stunnel4/stunnel4.pid debug = 7 foreground = yes socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 cert = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem verify = 3 [mysqls] accept = 3307 connect = localhost:3306 It runs just fine using supervisor. Any thoughts and how I could make the handshake work between server and client using geotrust's intermediate crt as the CA cert, or something similar? It contains certs down to the root level. Thanks! Jon
