Summary: SSLv3 and keep-alive causes "Page cannot be displayed"
in Internet Explorer
Product: Apache httpd-2.0
Version: 2.0.53
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: mod_ssl
AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: eirik.gjesteland@accenture.com
Internet Explorer opens up to four http connections to the web server
(configured as reverse proxy). These are in ESTABLISHED state for the duration
of the keep-alive timeout period. Then they enter CLOSE_WAIT state, where they
stay for a few seconds. If the user tries to go to a new page AND "friendly
http error messages" is enabled in Internet Explorer, the infamous "The page
cannot be displayed" appears.
This has been reproduced with httpd 2.0.52 and 2.0.53 with OpenSSL 0.9.7b,
0.9.7d and 0.9.7g. We were not able to reproduce the bug in 2.0.40 or 2.0.47
(all config files were equal), which makes us believe some sort of bug or
incampability with Explorer is introduced some time after 2.0.47. One will have
to go via a proxy in order to reproduce it.
For performance reasons, it is not an option to disable keep-alive.
Disabling SSLv3 "fixes" the problem.
