Hello Mahantesh, or anyone else affected,

Accepted wget into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wget/1.20.3-1ubuntu2
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: wget (Ubuntu Focal)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-focal

Title:
  OpenSSL "double free" error

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in wget package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in openssl source package in Focal:
  Incomplete
Status in wget source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  openssl config file is being loaded twice, causing engines to be loaded twice 
if specified therein, causing double free errors and other strange behavior.

  [Test plan]
  Run the command of the package being tested in

  gdb  -ex "break CONF_modules_load_file" -ex "run" --args

  and make sure it only breaks one.

  Regression test:

  In default Ubuntu configuration, either no openssl configuration is provided, 
or it contains no settings that affect wget. This code path changes how/when 
openssl configuration is loaded and used by openssl. One should verify that:
  1) wget continues to work without openssl.cnf
  2) wget continues to work with stock ubuntu unmodified openssl.cnf
  3) wget continue to honor and use custom TLS settings that one may have 
specified in openssl.cnf (for example custom engine)

  
  [Where problems could occur]

  wget: This is an upstream change that changes initialization and is in
  use in later releases. Since it mostly removes an unneeded call to the
  load file function, a regression could be a config file being ignored,
  but it seems unlikely given the use in later releases

  
  [Original bug report]
  "double free" error is seen when using curl utility. Error is from 
libcrypto.so which is part of the OpenSSL package. This happens only when 
OpenSSL is configured to use a dynamic engine.

  OpenSSL version is 1.1.1f

  The issue is not encountered if
  http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.1.1f.tar.gz is used instead.

  OpenSSL can be configured to use a dynamic engine by editing the
  default openssl config file which is located at '/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf'
  on Ubuntu systems.

  On Bluefield systems, config diff to enable PKA dynamic engine, is as
  below:

  +openssl_conf = conf_section
  +
   # Extra OBJECT IDENTIFIER info:
   #oid_file              = $ENV::HOME/.oid
   oid_section            = new_oids

  +[ conf_section ]
  +engines = engine_section
  +
  +[ engine_section ]
  +bf = bf_section
  +
  +[ bf_section ]
  +engine_id=pka
  +dynamic_path=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/engines-1.1/pka.so
  +init=0
  +

  engine_id above refers to dynamic engine name/identifier.
  dynamic_path points to the .so file for the dynamic engine.

  # curl -O https://tpo.pe/pathogen.vim

  double free or corruption (out)

  Aborted (core dumped)
