Subject: IO-Socket-SSL: unexplainable closed filehandle
Date: Sun, 28 Dec 2014 00:16:43 -0500
To: bug-IO-Socket-SSL [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Yclept Nemo <orbisvicis [...] gmail.com>
I've been trying to debug the ddclient package which suddenly stopped working. Here is an excerpt: require 5.004; use strict; ... use IO::Socket; ... $sd = IO::Socket::SSL->new( PeerAddr => $peer, PeerPort => $port, Proto => 'tcp', MultiHomed => 1, Timeout => opt('timeout'), ); defined $sd or warning("cannot connect to $peer:$port socket: $@ " . IO::Socket::SSL::errstr()); if (defined $sd) { ## send the request to the http server verbose("CONNECTED: using SSL"); verbose("SENDING:", "%s", $request); $0 = sprintf("%s - sending to %s port %s", $program, $peer, $port); my $result = syswrite $sd, $rq; if ($result != length($rq)) { warning("cannot send to $peer:$port ($!)."); } else { ... syswrite() on closed filehandle GEN1 at /usr/sbin/ddclient line 1888. Use of uninitialized value $result in numeric ne (!=) at ./ddclient line 1889. WARNING: cannot send to members.dyndns.org:443 (Bad file descriptor). Since the above error only happens when libio-socket-inet6-perl is installed, I assumed I was running into an IPV6 networking issue. So I tried including 'use Socket;' and passing 'Domain => AF_INET,' to IO::Socket::SSL->new(...), however the problem persisted. I also attempted calling 'system("netstat -W -n -a -e -e -p | grep '$progname'")' after calling IO:Socket::SSL->new(...); however the list was empty. At which point I assumed the error was internal to IO:Socket::INET6. So I tried the following: require 5.004; use strict; use IO::Socket::INET6; use IO::Socket::SSL; use Socket; my $program = "tester"; my $peer = "members.dyndns.org"; my $port = 443; my $request = "test"; my $rq = "test"; # try swapping these # my $sd = IO::Socket::INET6->new( my $sd = IO::Socket::SSL->new( PeerAddr => $peer, PeerPort => $port, Proto => 'tcp', MultiHomed => 1, Timeout => 120, ); defined $sd or warning("cannot connect to $peer:$port socket: $@"); if (defined $sd) { print("CONNECTED: using INET6\n"); print("SENDING: ", $request, "\n"); $0 = sprintf("%s - sending to %s port %s", $program, $peer, $port); my $result = syswrite $sd, $rq; if ($result != length($rq)) { warning("cannot send to $peer:$port ($!)."); } else { print("sent\n"); } } Strangely enough, the IO::Socket::INET6 version works perfectly (see the commented lines) whereas the IO::Socket::SSL version generates the aforementioned issue. Hence this bug report; I am stumped.

Sincerely,

Message body is not shown because it is too large.

Thanks for your problem report. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the problem with your example program. From my tests members.dyndns.org has a single IPv4 (204.13.248.111) and no IPv6 address, so I wonder why this problem should be related to INET6. Could you please run your tests with -MIO::Socket::SSL=debug4 ? Also, it would be good to use the latest version of IO::Socket::SSL. The version you use is nearly a year old. Regards, Steffen

Strangely enough, I can no longer reproduce the problem either. I installed libio-socket-ip-perl as a workaround, so that apps specifically requiring libio-socket-inet6 would continue to work while libio-socket-ssl-perl would prefer libio-socket-ip. In the meantime I realized my openssl CA store was out of sync (problems with SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed) and ran c_rehash as root. Now after uninstalling libio-socket-ip, I can no longer reproduce the issue. Everything is working smoothly. Strange... Anyway, thanks for the suggestions, and sorry for the transient report.

Good to know that it works now. Then I can close the bug.
