connect() are as finicky as sendto() when it comes to socket address
length. As it turned out they are, therefore the fix. Note that you
can't reproduce the problem on Linux, it was failing on Solaris,
FreeBSD, most likely on more...

Some systems have broken IPv6 headers and/or implementations. If
OPENSSL_USE_IPV6 is set to 0 IPv6 is not used, if it is set to 1 it is used
and if undefined an attempt is made to detect at compile time by checking
if AF_INET6 is set and excluding known problem platforms.
I just compiled the 9.9-dev version from the 12022007 tarball under
DJGPP. There were only 2 changes needed, one for b_sock.c, since
DJGPP with WATT32 doesn't define socklen_t and one for testtsa to
handle DOS style path separators. I also noted what seems to be a
typographical error in ts.pod. The test suite passes. The patch is
attached.
Since I am in the US, I have sent notifications to the Bureau of
Industry and Security and to the NSA.
1107. He says:
This is a followup to the NetWare patch that was applied to beta3. It
does the following:
- Fixes a problem in the CLib build with undefined symbols.
- Adds the ability to use BSD sockets as the default for the OpenSSL
socket BIO. NetWare supports 2 flavors of sockets and our Apache
developers need BSD sockets as a configurable option when building
OpenSSL. This adds that for them.
- Updates to the INSTALL.NW file to explain new options.
I have tried very hard to make sure all the changes are in NetWare
specific files or guarded carefully to make sure they only impact
NetWare builds. I have tested the Windows build to make sure it does
not break that since we have made changes to mk1mf.pl.
We are still working the gcc cross compile for NetWare issue and hope
to have a patch for that before beta 6 is released.
Use BUF_strlcat() instead of strcat().
Use BIO_snprintf() instead of sprintf().
In some cases, keep better track of buffer lengths.
This is part of a large change submitted by Markus Friedl <markus@openbsd.org>
PR: 338
Here's the description, submitted by Gisle Vanem <giva@bgnett.no>:
1. sock_init() renamed to ssl_sock_init() in ./apps/s_socket.c due
to name-clash with Watt-32.
2. rand() renamed to Rand() in ./crypto/bn/divtest.c due to name-clash
with <stdlib.h>
3. Added calls to dbug_init()/sock_init() in some demo programs.
4. Changed cflags/lflags in configure. Watt-32 install root now taken
from $WATT_ROOT.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.
only happened when the port number wasn't parsable ot the host wasn't
possible to convert to an IP address.
