Using MySqlConnection (.NET) to SSL connect to MySql-server fails from certain clients_问答_开发者

This is really a question about SSL, and Socket-traces are below, so don't be shy to continue reading even if you've never used MySql before. Anyway we're trying to connect to a MySql-server over SSL (with a Client .PFX certificate) using MySqlConnection (both .NET 2.0 & 4.0, version doesn't matter), as so:

using (MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection(@"server=xxx.yyy.zzz.uuu;database=whopper;user=Username;password=Secret;Certificate Store Location=CurrentUser;Pooling=false;SSL Mode=Required;Certificate Thumbprint=NNNN;Keepalive=60")) {
    con.Open();
}

The certificate is installed in the Personal store, and this whole thing works on some machines; but not on others. StackTrace:

System.IO.IOException: Received an unexpected EOF or 0 bytes from the transport stream.

Now, to debug this I've downloaded the latest src of MySqlConnection, so I can follow everything until the call to AuthenticateAsClient - where MySqlConnection calls the .NET framework to setup the SSL connection. Next I added the following to my app.config (to be get a socket trace and continue the investigation):

<?xml version="1.0"?>

    <system.diagnostics>
        <sources>
            <source name="System.Net.Sockets">

        </sharedListeners>
        <trace autoflush="true"/>
    </system.diagnostics>
</configuration>

On the client machine where the connection accually succeeds, that file begins with:

[my client certificate seems to be sent here]

(I've cut out the certificate parts of the files above). Anyway my guess is that the error that I receive on some machines is rooted in what cipher algorithm that is selected in the SSL handshake. But it's really a punch in the dark (?) and I'm tearing my hair at this very moment. The SSL handshake just seem to fail on some machines.

If anyone knows a good way to dissect/decode/analyze the traffic above (I've been in WireShark and banged my head for several hours, and still can't figure out how to give the above hex to the SSL dissector). Or if anyone can directly spot the difference / whats failing in #2 that would help alot!!

I found the solution myself while dissecting the TLS protocol. Turns out that the client that don't work in the example above is sending the my client certificate while handshaking; and the client that do work doesn't do that. Apparently encryption is established anyway (I haven't continued on into the TLS protocol), and probably a certificate exchange/key exchange is taken place further on.

To get the connection to work, all I had to do was change the connectionstring and remove all Certificate*= keys. In particular "Certificate Store Location=CurrentUser". My current, working MySql SSL connectionstring is:

server=xxx.yyy.zzz.uuu;database=whopper;user=Username;password=Secret;Pooling=false;SSL Mode=Required;Keepalive=60

Also, as a side note, while dissecting the communication, I found that Tamos CommView does a better job than WireShark in intercepting & dissecting while on VPN communications. Perhaps due to WinPCaps dissability to dissect VPN packets under Windows 7 x64. Also the TLS dissector in CommView is what really helped me find the handshaking issue.

Also, as a second side note. All SSL/TLS communication in Windows is handled by a DLL called schannel.dll. Full logging into the System EventLog for that dll can be enabled by creating the DWORD HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\EventLogging with the value 7.

To make it work. Remove stuff.
