After having issues with both updating OPNsense (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=24968.0) and DNS over TLS (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=24972.0) it seems to me that there is an issue with LE certificates.
[admin@OPNsense ~]$ fetch -o mimugmail.conf https://www.routerperformance.net/mimugmail.conf
Certificate verification failed for /O=Digital Signature Trust Co./CN=DST Root CA X3
5843273977856:error:1416F086:SSL routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:/usr/src/crypto/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:1915:
fetch: https://www.routerperformance.net/mimugmail.conf: Authentication error
after I remove the DST Root CA X3 certificate from /etc/ssl/certs.pem and /usr/local/etc/ssl/certs.pem I get the following:
[admin@OPNsense ~]# fetch -o mimugmail.conf https://www.routerperformance.net/mimugmail.conf
Certificate verification failed for /C=US/O=Internet Security Research Group/CN=ISRG Root X1
898400673792:error:1416F086:SSL routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed:/usr/src/crypto/openssl/ssl/statem/statem_clnt.c:1915:
fetch: https://www.routerperformance.net/mimugmail.conf: Authentication error
And in both places the ISRG Root X1 is valid till 2035.
Running openssl s_client -connect unicast.uncensoreddns.org:853 (using a LE cert) gives the following (shortend):

let me guess..
added cross-signed ISRG Root X1 cert to Trusted?)

I was about to answer that as well. Getting a update which would be able to fix that will be hard if a pkg update fails (which it does).
-
The fix seems to lie in this thread, but I am still trying to figure out what to do exactly from there. But people got it working again over there.

It also affects ldaps:// connections (!!) and let in our case to broken vpn authentication for our users.
seems the openssl version is the problem. the only thing that helped us for now is to import the ldap servers LE-Certificate into Trust->Authorities. It is then directly trusted by the ssl client and the (assumably broken) chain is not checked.
-
i think this is a bigger issue hitting a lot of people and should be raised in priority

Kind of. I did delete the old DST Root CA X3 (called R3 (Let's Encrypt) from Trusted and recreated all the certificates.
This then seems to have added the ISRG Root X1 (called R3 (ACME Client). I removed this and recreated all of them again. This solved the issues.
I can update from mirrors with LE certs, DoT is working again with uncensoreddns.org and the openssl s_client also verifies the LE certs again.
Thanks

this steps worked for me. maybe some benefit too;
1. remove old ca (go System - Trust - Authorities)
2. change update mirror to http (MARWAN)
3. logon to commandline (as mine also seem to fail on ntop repository),
pkg remove ntop
pkg clean
pkg update
pkg upgrade
reboot

I've followed these steps and my webgui cert works like a charm, I'm also able to check for updates.

But I'm having other problems that still persist.
I'm on:
OPNsense 21.7.3_3-amd64
FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p20-HBSD
LibreSSL 3.3.4
Monit can't send any more emails:

And Nextcloud backups also stopped working.

2021-10-02T10:34:39 php-cgi[17483] Cannot get real username
The Nextcloud server has a let's encrypt certificate but it's not signed with the old CA.
(https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=24973.0;attach=19004)
Any suggestions?
-
maybe, forse reset of existing account in acme, and then renew certificate will help
-
Since the router in my case (initiating email or connection to Nextcloud) is the client this should have nothing to do with the certificate, but with the CA's marked as trusted by the OS right? So shouldn't this be an update of the OS (BSD)? Maybe it's handling the cross signed versions of the CA wrong or something?
-
Does anyone have similar problems? Or maybe even someone who has fixed them by now?

Hi,
my solution in the end:
- Remove all LE CA/intermediate certificates with 0 certificates attached from System: Trust: Authorities
- Follow the solution from Felix: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=24950.msg119837#msg119837 (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=24950.msg119837#msg119837), to download the ISRG root X1 and the LE R3 certificates and add a new Authority to System: Trust: Authorities with the R3 cert first and the ISRG after it in the Certificate data field and give it a nice name.
- All my ACME Client certificates where now assigned to this certificate. YMMV.
- Delete the old R3 certificate created by the ACME client, which should now have no certificates attached.
If you do not use the ACME client plug-in, the first two steps might be sufficient.

If you do not use the ACME client plug-in, the first two steps might be sufficient.
From what we have seen acme-client caused CA stuffing (multiple CA certificates in one entry) which then got flushed into the trust store causing the wrong chain to be verified by OpenSSL. When not using acme-client the condition is nearly impossible to trigger in the first place unless you maybe imported Let's Encrypt CA certificates manually into System: Trust: Authorities.
There is a code change to make handling the trust store more careful with regard to arbitrary System: Trust: Authorities input.
We since replaced the certificates away from Let's Encrypt for the community updates server to allow updates even in the botched system state.
But in the end consider Let's Encrypt doing this stunt to keep old Android phones from breaking. It nearly broke the rest of the Internet for a bit in the process. Not a good plan.

The update to LibreSSL 3.3.5 fixed the problem for me. Both emailing with Monit and Nextcloud backups (both with lets encrypt certs) now get accepted again.
-
With at least 3 other related changes I'm doubting it was LibreSSL 3.3.5 update by itself. That theory is easily tested:
# opnsense-revert -r 21.7.3 libressl
Cheers,
