SSLv2 bug with large writes

2000-12-18 Thread Eric Day
I came across this bug while i found our SSL server was coring a few times a day. I used dmalloc (www.dmalloc.com) to help trace it down to a client using MSIE with SSLv3 off and using SSLv2. I have not tried but i assume any SSLv2 client will cause the same results. It comes down to calculating

EVP_EncryptUpdate

2000-12-18 Thread Pawe Krawczyk
Hello, I'm having problems with the EVP_Encrypt/Decrypt interface. The following program doesn't work as expected. It does simple data-encrypt-decrypt-in. Specifically, I get some garbage mixed with the plaintext in the final buffer. It seems like the EVP_DncryptUpdate decrypts (n-1) blocks of 8

My servers don't wanna talk v2

Okay, I went and looked at Appendix E of the SSL v3 spec, to find out why ssl23_accept() does special handling on ClientHello messages with v2 headers that are marked as version 3. First it says "Version 3 servers should accept either ClientHello format". That's understandable for the since

Hi Bodo (and anyone else interested), Just a thought I was having about locking and things. Rather than us worrying so much about how to do per-object locking (as opposed to our current per-class locking), I wonder if it's worth considering how to minimize the number and complexity of operations
