Bug #11376: Stop using SSLv3 methods

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: -
• Target version: -
• Backport: 2.0.0: REQUIRED, 2.1: DONE, 2.2: DONE

[kroeckx (Kurt Roeckx)]

If openssl is compiled using the OPENSSL_NO_SSL3_METHOD you can't compile ruby anymore since it will still try to use the SSLv3_*_method()s.

Please stop using those method at least when they're not available.

It would also be nice that you actually stopped version specific methods like TLSv1_1_method() and that you only use the SSLv23method()s or TLS*_methods (only available in development branch). If you want to restrict the version that can be instead please use things like SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3.

Is there any ETA of when I can expect this to be resolved? Do you need some help or more info?

I would like to see this fixed in Debian as soon as possible, because I would like to drop support for that and ruby is really my biggest blocker at this point.

Since OpenBSD removed SSLv3 from libressl a few days ago, I've committed patches similar to the attached one to all ruby ports in the OpenBSD ports tree.

Applied in changeset r51722.

• ext/openssl/ossl_ssl.c (static const struct): Only add SSLv3 support
  if the SSL library supports it. Thanks Kurt Roeckx [e-mail]
  [Bug #11376]

• ext/openssl/extconf.rb: check for SSLv3 support in the SSL
  implementation.

• test/openssl/test_ssl.rb (class OpenSSL): Skip tests that need SSLv3
  if there is no support.
