From: "Chris D. Peterson" <cpeterson@aventail.com> Subject: Implementation Issues with OpenSSL To: openssl-users@openssl.org Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2001 16:13:17 -0700 The patch included in the original post may improve the internal session list handling (and is therefore worth a seperate investigation). No change to the list handling will however solve the problems of incorrect SSL_SESSION_free() calls. The session list is only one possible point of failure, dangling pointers would also occur for SSL object currently using the session. The correct solution is to only use SSL_SESSION_free() when applicable!

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb() sets the callback function, which is automatically
|
|
called whenever a new session was negotiated.
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_sess_set_remove_cb() sets the callback function, which is
|
|
automatically called whenever a session is removed by the SSL engine,
|
|
because it is considered faulty or the session has become obsolete because
|
|
of exceeding the timeout value.
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb() sets the callback function which is called,
|
|
whenever a SSL/TLS client proposed to resume a session but the session
|
|
could not be found in the internal session cache (see
|
|
L<SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3)|SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3)>).
|
|
(SSL/TLS server only.)
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_sess_get_new_cb(), SSL_CTX_sess_get_remove_cb(), and
|
|
SSL_CTX_sess_get_get_cb() allow to retrieve the function pointers of the
|
|
provided callback functions. If a callback function has not been set,
|
|
the NULL pointer is returned.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
In order to allow external session caching, synchronization with the internal
|
|
session cache is realized via callback functions. Inside these callback
|
|
functions, session can be saved to disk or put into a database using the
|
|
L<d2i_SSL_SESSION(3)|d2i_SSL_SESSION(3)> interface.
|
|
|
|
The new_session_cb() is called, whenever a new session has been negotiated
|
|
and session caching is enabled (see
|
|
L<SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3)|SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode(3)>).
|
|
The new_session_cb() is passed the B<ssl> connection and the ssl session
|
|
B<sess>. If the callback returns B<0>, the session will be immediately
|
|
removed again.
|
|
|
|
The remove_session_cb() is called, whenever the SSL engine removes a session
|
|
from the internal cache. This happens if the session is removed because
|
|
it is expired or when a connection was not shutdown cleanly. The
|
|
remove_session_cb() is passed the B<ctx> and the ssl session B<sess>.
|
|
It does not provide any feedback.
|
|
|
|
The get_session_cb() is only called on SSL/TLS servers with the session id
|
|
proposed by the client. The get_session_cb() is always called, also when
|
|
session caching was disabled. The get_session_cb() is passed the
|
|
B<ssl> connection, the session id of length B<length> at the memory location
|
|
B<data>. With the parameter B<copy> the callback can require the
|
|
SSL engine to increment the reference count of the SSL_SESSION object,
|
|
Normally the reference count is not incremented and therefore the
|
|
session must not be explicitly freed with
|
|
L<SSL_SESSION_free(3)|SSL_SESSION_free(3)>.
