Source: openssl Severity: normal Tags: upstream When trying to debug connection issues of a XMPP server it is sometimes required to debug the plain XMPP data stream between the two servers. In order to do this a handy tool usually is openssl s_client. Unfortunately when debugging XMPP connections between two servers which uses STARTTLS inside XMPP OpenSSL simply hangs.
How to reproduce: 1. Choose an arbitrary XMPP server, e.g. xmpp-server.example.org on port 5269 2. Try to connect to this server with openssl s_client: openssl s_client -connect xmpp-server.example.org:5269 -starttls xmpp Expected behaviour: Either one of the following would be okay: 1. A connection to the destination server is established 2. An error message indicating the server's refusal to speak the XMPP c2s protocol flavour on the s2s port. Actual behaviour: Connection hangs without any indication of why it doesn't continue.
