[Bug 861137] Re: Openssl TLS errors while connecting to SSLv3 sites

[graingert]

ubuntu 12.04

I don't get this issue in wget, curl or openssl

But I do get this issue in python

import requests
requests.post("https://browserid.org/verify", data={})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/api.py", line 84, in post

    return s.request(method=method, url=url, **kwargs)

Title:
  Openssl TLS errors while connecting to SSLv3 sites

Status in “openssl” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I upgraded to Oneiric Ocelot beta1. OpenSSL version is "1.0.0e 6 Sep
  2011"

  Now, when I connect to certain HTTPs servers with wget or curl I get a
  TLS error.

  With wget : OpenSSL: error:14077438:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert internal error
  With curl : curl: (35) error:14077438:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert internal error

  In wget, this can be fixed by specifying --secure-protocol=sslv3 option
  In curl, this can be fixed by specifying -sslv3 option

  The issue is that the automatic check for the version seems to be
  failing. This is working fine in Natty systems using older versions of
  openssl.

  The impact of this will be in scripts using curl, wget etc. which will
  start failing after an upgrade.
