Short description
Instead of storing the frontend context for server-side connection and the
SSL_CTX*
for client-side.The first commit in this PR fixes a race condition where reloading the certificate and key via
reloadAllCertificates()
, for example, could cause theALPN
-related data to be destroyed while it was still used by an existing TLS connection. The time window to trigger the issue is quite narrow becauseALPN
data is only accessed during the initial handshake, but we have got one report of it happening in the wild, and TSAN confirms the race. This is not a security issue since it cannot be triggered without administrative access to dnsdist.The remaining commits are making this code more clean and robust, and should probably not be backported.
I would recommend reviewing this PR commit per commit!
