Issues with IPSEC and Diffie Hellman Groups on 19.1

[dasaint]

Hey All,

Testing out 19.1 and came across IPSEC Issues it doesnt seem that any of the DH codes are working when i  started to look deeper i found that its only supporting curve25519 which isnt even an option in the UI but also that there was an issue with OpenSSL failing to load which looks very similar to a freebsd issue from a while back (https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212149)

more info,

this is what i would have expected to see but because of the openssl error i am betting that is root cause, had to boot up an older pfsense box that i had to pull it but i would have expected to see the below and it confirms my suspicions  (PFSense 2.4.4 P1 is using strongSwan 5.7.1 (OpenSSL 1.0.2o-freebsd) and this OPNSense Build 19.1b is using strongSwan 5.6.3 (OpenSSL 1.0.2o-freebsd)) could be a bug from previous strongSwan version that could be affecting Openssl?

Hope this helps more.

I have a similar issue with the same possible cause. After importing configuration from 18.7 to 19.1 my IKEv2 VPNs are broken, the clients can't connect due to some errors with the DH Group

Did you install 19.1 image or just install 19.1 kernel?
For me it looks good ...

[mimugmail]

OK, was able to reproduce. Installed a fresh 19.1 ISO and got the same behavior.
After updating to latest version and reboot it's gone ..

[franco]

Sounds strange, but should be reevaluated on 19.1-RC1 for safety.

i hadnt updated the image as i went on vaca but that would prob be the next step i do believe that the issue is related to the strongswan version being older and that its causing an incompatibility with openssl that triggered the issue.

My tests were New installs via the ISO with 0 updates IIR it said it was 19.1 Version D that i had issues with

[franco]

Oh right, there was a transient issues with OpenSSL on StrongSwan 5.6.3 for us, but it was fixed when StrongSwan 5.7.1 was added in 18.7.7 and the 19.1-BETA images had the faulty one from 18.7.6.

FWIW, LibreSSL was not affected by this as far as I can tell.

Case closed.


Cheers,
Franco
