Re: [users@httpd] TLS SNI with user certificates.


As a quick hack, I setup the normal vhost to have a certificate 1 (it 
has to have one defined to even start after all) then patch 
set_ssl_vhost() to load a different "ctx" certificate 2. I would leak 
context like crazy, but as a quick proof-of-concept it would tell me if 
it is feasible.

         strcasecmp(servername, "www.example.com")) {
         SSL_CTX *ctx;
         int status;

         found = TRUE;
         ap_log_error(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_ERR, 0, s, "example patch: 
loading");

         ctx = SSL_CTX_new(SSLv23_method());
         ap_log_error(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_ERR, 0, s, "new ctx %p", ctx);
         status = SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file(ctx,
                         "/etc/certs/www.example.com.pem", 
X509_FILETYPE_PEM);
         ap_log_error(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_ERR, 0, s, "loaded pem file %d", 
status);

         if ((ssl = ((SSLConnRec *)myConnConfig(c))->ssl) == NULL)
             return 0;
         if (!(sc = mySrvConfig(s)))
             return 0;
         sc->server->ssl_ctx = ctx;
         SSL_set_SSL_CTX(ssl,sc->server->ssl_ctx);
         SSL_CTX_set_app_data(ctx, s);
         return 1;
     }


The last few lines, I have tried a few combinations in my attempt to 
make it work. I get the following output however:


[Tue Jan 29 12:23:38 2008] [error] Called set_ssl_vhost with 
'www.example.jp'
[Tue Jan 29 12:23:38 2008] [error] example patch: loading
[Tue Jan 29 12:23:38 2008] [error] new ctx
[Tue Jan 29 12:23:38 2008] [error] loaded pem file 1
[Tue Jan 29 12:23:38 2008] [error] Re-negotiation handshake failed: Not 
accepted by client!?


And Seamonkey says: "the site uses a security protocol that isn't enabled".


Am I trying to patch it in too late in the game?, has it already sent 
part of the vhost certificate1 before the example.com certificate2?

If I create a vhost with example.com, and example.com.pem certificate2, 
as well as the default vhost, both certificates work and loads 
correctly. It is my hack that breaks things, I am not sure how much of 
apache's framework I need to conform to.

Hi,

I'd suggest taking this to the dev@httpd.apache.org mailing list. Tell
them I sent you if they complain ;-)
