Dear team,
I'm running an application which uses openssl for secure communication
between processes. I am getting seg-faults at openssl level. This only
occurred very randomly and the following are stacks that seg faults
at openssl level in the given 2 cases. We are using openssl 1.0.2k.
version 1.0.2k suggests you are using RHEL7/CentOS 7, correct?
Went through the security vulnerabilities list for this version but
couldn't find a clue. Running valgrind too didn't give an exact clue
related to the issue. Can you please guide me how can I find the exact
root cause for the seg fault?
I am calling SSL_do_handshake(ssl_ctx) from my code level and both the
below seg faults are occuring from it's inside.
#0 0x00007fd64cdabdd3 in ASN1_item_verify () from /lib64/libcrypto.so.10
#1 0x00007fd64cdcac58 in internal_verify () from /lib64/libcrypto.so.10
#2 0x00007fd64cdccaef in X509_verify_cert () from /lib64/libcrypto.so.10
#3 0x00007fd64d111c68 in ssl_verify_cert_chain () from
/lib64/libssl.so.10
#4 0x00007fd64d0e8cc6 in ssl3_get_client_certificate () from
/lib64/libssl.so.10
*#5 0x00007fd64d0ea3f8 in ssl3_accept () from /lib64/libssl.so.10*
so the segfault occurs inside ASN1_item_verify () when verifying the
certificate - it could be a malformed certificate with invalid ASN1
encoding; do you have the certificate that causes the segfault?
If you do not, then it is worthwhile recording/storing all certificates
until you find the one that causes the segfault and then examine it.
