Title:
openssl has catastrophic issues when locale set to TR_UTF8
Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:

Status in openssl source package in Jammy:

Status in openssl source package in Kinetic:

Bug description:
[Impact]
Due to the case comparison differences in the Turkish locale, some routines in
OpenSSL fail to recognize some algorithm names as valid, unexpectedly breaking
crypto.
[Test Plan]
This bug is really easy to trigger:
sudo locale-gen tr_TR.UTF-8
LANG=C curl https://ubuntu.com/ > /dev/null # This work
LANG=tr_TF.UTF-8 curl https://ubuntu.com/ > /dev/null # This fails
The error is curl: (35) error:03000072:digital envelope
routines::decode error
[Where problems could occur]
This patch set is relatively massive, and can cause regressions, as
illustrated
by the patch #5 which fixes one such regression. Those regressions would
likely
show up as either libssl crashes, in case of uninitialized objects, or as
algorithm selection failures if somehow the case comparison is buggy.
[Other Info]
The fix has already been released upstream as part of their 3.0.3 release.
[Original report]
I noticed this when I checked "ua status". It alerted me that I should check
my openssl configuration.
"ua status
Failed to access URL:
https://contracts.canonical.com/v1/resources?architecture=amd64&kernel=5.15.0-25-generic&series=jammy
Cannot verify certificate of server
Please check your openssl configuration."
I also figured wget&curl doesn't work with https:// URLs at all.
On web I found:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/18039
So I changed locale to C_UTF-8
#locale
LANG=tr_TR.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="tr_TR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_TIME=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="tr_TR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="tr_TR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_NAME=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=tr_TR.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
casaba@ship-macbook:/backups$ sudo locale-gen c
ca_AD ca_ES.UTF-8 ca_IT ckb_IQ cs_CZ cy_GB.UTF-8
ca_AD.UTF-8 ca_ES@valencia ca_IT.UTF-8 cmn_TW cs_CZ.UTF-8
ca_ES ca_FR ce_RU crh_UA cv_RU
ca_ES@euro ca_FR.UTF-8 chr_US csb_PL cy_GB
casaba@ship-macbook:/backups$ sudo locale-gen C.UTF-8
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
C.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
casaba@ship-macbook:/backups$ update-locale LANG=C.UTF8
casaba@ship-macbook:/backups$ sudo update-locale LANG=C.UTF8
Now the result is (after logout/login)

If Ubuntu 22 ships with current configuration, entire TR will suffer
considering you can't find http:// downloads anymore.
