Package: sendmail
Version: 8.14.1-9
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
After upgrading ssmtp to a version that linked against gnutls instead
of openssl, I found that it simply didn't work anymore when using
client certificate authentication. I added debugging to ssmtp and it
was reporting:
The Diffie Hellman prime sent by the server is not acceptable (not long
enough).
On my Sendmail server, I did some searching and eventually found
that I could fix this by running:
openssl dhparam -out dhparam.pem -2 1024
and adding to /etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4:
define(`confDH_PARAMETERS',`/etc/mail/tls/dhparam.pem')dnl
This did the trick and ssmtp works again. Since gnutls is probably
complaining about the small prime for a legit security-related reason,
I think it would make sense for sendmail to use a larger one by
default.
