RE: Basic OpenSSL Client w/Pthreads

2002-05-14 Thread Nick Gaugler

You are correct, it was timeouts.  My pthread application was overloading
the SSL server and it wasn't returning within the timeout, so that is why I
kept receiving Error with sockets.   I have an additional question related
to SSL_write on a non-blocking IO.  What is the proper method to check and
make sure that the SSL write was performed properly?  I've seen a few errors
in my SSL server log that look like this that have actually been crashing my
SSL daemon:

There are no problems with service_data-servicesend, this is always a
simple HTTP HEAD request, I've already checked this.

Subject: Basic OpenSSL Client w/Pthreads


I've come up with the following BASIC OpenSSL client from the cli.cpp
example and I am trying to turn it into a multi threaded application with
pthreads.   Each thread will open a brand new connection, it will not read
off of the same connection, so it should not be any different.  I've added
the th-lock.c library into it before the threads are created and after they
are destroyed, from the limited documentation I've found, that should cover
everything.  The only thing I have changed with the basic cli.cpp is that I
am using non-blocking IO through SELECT/FD_ISSET.  By doing this I have also
added support for SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ, so that shouldn't be the issue.  The
problem I am seeing is within the select/FD_ISSET.  My FD_ISSET is failing.
(Enclosed below)


c = select(sockfd+900, readfds, NULL, NULL, tv);
if (c  0) {
perror(SELECT);
fprintf(stderr, Error with the select\n);
break;
}

if (!FD_ISSET(sockfd, readfds)) {
perror(Error);
fprintf(stderr,Error with socket\n);
break;
}

Should I not be using this with OpenSSL and/or pthreads?  Are there any
known issues or can anyone shed some light onto the subject for me?

Thanks in advance,

Nick

Securing Telnet

2002-05-14 Thread Thomas Nilsen

Sorry if this is a lame question, but I've not been able to find the answers to my 
question anywhere else. 

We've been given the task of giving an external company access to a AIX 4.1 box which 
only runs telnet. And since it looks like OpenSSH needs AIX 4.3 we are not able to 
nativly support SSH on the box.

Is it possible to set up a SSH session on a linux host in DMZ which will forward any 
SSH connections on a given port to the AIXs telnet port? There will be a couple of 
users needing access, and we need to be able to have them log on to the AIX box with 
their own username/password. From the examples I've seeen it is possible to set up SSH 
forwarding to a telnet session that is already logged on, but tha's not quite what we 
need. We are looking for a proxy type SSH gateway. 

The clients will be running Windows.

I hope someone can give me a good idea on how to solve this.

Large files with smime

2002-05-14 Thread Girish Venkatachalam



Hi everyone, 
Openssl smime is not able to handle big files ( We 
tried with a 500MB file). It doesn't report any error message. 

On stepping through the source, we found that it's 
failing in OPENSSL_malloc.

However openssl enc works fine with files larger 
than 2 GB. 

There is a bug in one of those pkcs7_ routines. Is 
there a workaround for this problem? 

We are using Openssl 0.9.6c 21 Dec 2001 version. 


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Doesn't the PKCS#7 routines keep all the data in memory? I think that's
how it's done.
If that's correct, then you should consider adding more memory (either
physical or swap) to your system.

The administration server was unable to fulfill your request.

Whats wrong with the certificate? Same certificate runs in IIS and Apache. I saw

not?

 The following ssldump trace records the following 'su' sequence and shows that

 Questions:
 
 1. any idea why the su from a non privileged account is not working?
This is a Solaris question. My guess, offhand, would be that DAV has
a '*'-ed out password field so you can't su to it if you're not
root.

 2. how do I invoke ssldump to decrypt the complete dialog?
(e.g. all Handshakes and application data)
You need to ensure that it has the server's private key, using the 
-k and -p arguments.

 3. how do I convert the certificates exported from Microsoft Enterprise
Certificate Authority to a format which can be read by ssldump?
I'm not sure what yu're trying to do here. There seem to be two
ways to read this message:
(1) You want ssldump to decode the certificates when it parses
the transaction. This is a simple matter of giving it the -N
flag to tell it to parse the ASN.1. (Assuming, of course, ssldump
was linked with OpenSSL when you built it.)

(2) You want ssldump to read the server's private key (not certificate).
There's no need to read the server's certificate. All you need to do for
this is convert it into an OpenSSL keyfile. It's not clear what
kind of keyfile you're starting with here...

Do you have an example of such S/MIME mail that can't be handled correctly
by OpenSSL?

BTW: there's really no difference between a certificate created by OpenSSL
and one created by a classic certificate vendor (such as VeriSign, Thawte,
or any other). The only important things are what you put in your
certificates, and for what purposes the Root CA is trusted in your client
software.

 Moreover, I need to know what client is doing what. It seems that some
 clients make some internet connection to verify certificates...

Yes, if the certificate that the client would like to verify contains for
example a CRLDistributionPoint extension, then the client software needs
to grab the CRL pointed by this extension, and validate the certificate
based on this CRL.

Same if the client software tries to validate the certificate by asking an
OCSP responder.

 What the use of having openssl if you can't use it, on a wide range of
 platforms.

OpenSSL can now be considered mature, and works perfectly on a very wide
platform range.

is supported by OpenSSL now, but there is a "detached" attribute for files in 
PKCS7 routines, and working in PKCS7_verify(),PKCS7_init(),PKCS7_data() you can 
do it.You have to change memory BIOs (yes,all the data is handled in memory) by 
file BIOs.

  Hi everyone, 
  Openssl smime is not able to handle big files ( 
  We tried with a 500MB file). It doesn't report any error message. 

  
  On stepping through the source, we found that 
  it's failing in OPENSSL_malloc.
  
  However openssl enc works fine with files larger 
  than 2 GB. 
  
  There is a bug in one of those pkcs7_ routines. 
  Is there a workaround for this problem? 
  
  We are using Openssl 0.9.6c 21 Dec 2001 version. 
  
  
  Any help is greatly appreciated.

RE: create opensll, ssldump keyfile

2002-05-14 Thread Davidson, Stuart

2. when I try using the -k and -p arguments using the iPlanet cert7.db, ssldump gives 
the error:

Problem loading private key
Error: Couldn't create network handler

3. I think I need option (2) but I don't know how to convert the existing iPlanet 
key3.db, cert7.db or Microsoft Enterprise Certtificate Authority Server certificates 
to a format which can be read by ssldump.

The ssldump man page specifies an OpenSSL format keyfile but how do I create one? Step 
by step instructions would be great.

Last but not least, any idea why the failed su coincides with 81 byte application_data 
and 20 byte Handshake?

Thanks,
Stuart

This is a Solaris question. My guess, offhand, would be that DAV has

root.

 2. how do I invoke ssldump to decrypt the complete dialog?
(e.g. all Handshakes and application data)
You need to ensure that it has the server's private key, using the 
-k and -p arguments.

 3. how do I convert the certificates exported from Microsoft Enterprise
Certificate Authority to a format which can be read by ssldump?
I'm not sure what yu're trying to do here. There seem to be two
ways to read this message:
(1) You want ssldump to decode the certificates when it parses
the transaction. This is a simple matter of giving it the -N
flag to tell it to parse the ASN.1. (Assuming, of course, ssldump
was linked with OpenSSL when you built it.)

(2) You want ssldump to read the server's private key (not certificate).
There's no need to read the server's certificate. All you need to do for
this is convert it into an OpenSSL keyfile. It's not clear what
kind of keyfile you're starting with here...

create opensll, ssldump keyfile

2002-05-14 Thread Davidson, Stuart

The following ssldump trace records the following 'su' sequence and shows that
an su from a non privileged account does not work.

# su - dav
$ id
uid=4001 gid=401 +++ su from root to dav works OK +++
$ su - dav
Password:
su: Sorry +++ su from dav to dav does NOT work +++
$

Questions:

1. any idea why the su from a non privileged account is not working?

3. how do I convert the certificates exported from Microsoft Enterprise
   Certificate Authority to a format which can be read by ssldump?

Thanks,
Stuart
  
Note:

I have tried various openssl commands to convert the Microsoft Enterprise
Certificates to a formate suitable for ssldump but without success.

The server certificate exported from Microsoft Enterprise Certificate
Authority have been added to the Netscape/iPlanet format cert7.db using
keyutil and certutil. This allows passwords stored in Active Directory to
be changed from Solaris proving, I think, that the certificates are OK.

Overall objective is to integrate Solaris with Active Directory so that user
accounts are served from AD.

Environment:

Solaris 8, PAM ldap built with iPlanet ldapcsdk5[1].08, Windows 2000 Service
Pack 2, Active Directory, Microsoft Enterprise Certificate Authority

Yes, if the certificate that the client would like to verify 
contains for
example a CRLDistributionPoint extension, then the client 
software needs
to grab the CRL pointed by this extension, and validate the 
certificate
based on this CRL.

Same if the client software tries to validate the certificate by 
asking an
OCSP responder.

OpenSSL can now be considered mature, and works perfectly on a 
very wide
platform range.

That's not surprising. The ASN1 routines currently are purely
memory based. That is you need to have the whole structure in
memory for it to work. Trying to allocate 500Mb of memory is
probably producing a malloc failure. It should however give
an error message.

 However openssl enc works fine with files larger than 2 GB. 
 

The 'enc' command streams data in chunks and never needs to
have the whole file in memory.

 There is a bug in one of those pkcs7_ routines. Is there a workaround for this 
problem? 
 

The fix is to add ASN1 routines that are I/O based 
instead of memory based. In 0.9.6 you'd have to
rewrite almost all the ASN1 code, in 0.9.7 and later
it is less difficult and will need a new or additional
BIO based ASN1 encoder and decoder.

This is still a big job though. Handling non blocking
I/O is particylarly messy, but blocking I/O is somewhat
easier.

Steve.
