I am attempting to use a remote system for user authentication. This chunk of code gets a response when I run it on MacOSX, but fails on my machine:
def create
uri = URI.parse('https://ourclient.example.com/')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new('/login.jsp')
request.set_form_data({'login_name' => params[:login], 'password' => params[:password]})
response = http.request(request)
puts "Response BODY: #{response.body.inspect}"
end
Turning verify off gets rid of a warning on the Macs. On my machine, the http.request raises this exception:
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError (SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A: sslv3 alert illegal parameter):
app/controllers/sessions_controller.rb:16:in `create'
I get the same behavior using IRB without Rails. I did a clean install of Fedora 14 yesterday, installed the required development tools and libraries. I'm using Ruby 1.9.2-p180, and Rails 3.0.4. I thought I might have had my libraries misconfigured (I had Fedora 12 that had been upgraded a few times), but this is now a new install.
The remote system is probably Microsoft's IIS, but I'm not certain of that. Perhaps I can use an older SSL protocol, but my Google-fu can't find the incantation.
I would appreciate any tips on resolving this issue. Thanks,
Chris
how was created the ssl cert on the server? self-signed or ca-signed?
which is the error you receive if you remove the VERIFY_NONE?
use Mechanize gem for it
gem install mechanize
and try
require 'mechanize'
page = Mechanize.new{|a| a.ssl_version, a.verify_mode = 'SSLv3', OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE}.get "**YOUR HTTPS LINK HERE**"

I want to build a cli ruby app which sends requests to Rails API server. I wanted to use rest-client gem to do that. Every time i use
RestClient.post
I get the following error
SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: wrong version number (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)
Is there anything i can do for it to run from the console? The code is pretty simple, I just wanted to test out the feature, so don't worry, that's not final.
I am running rails 6.0.3, ruby 2.6.3.
require "tty-prompt"
prompt = TTY::Prompt.new
require 'rest-client'
if prompt.yes? "Do you have an account ?"
email = prompt.ask('What is your email?') do |q|
q.validate(/\A\w+#\w+\.\w+\Z/, 'Invalid email address')
end
pass = prompt.mask('password:')
puts email
puts pass
RestClient.post "https://localhost:3000/auth/sign_in", "email: #{email},password:#{pass}"
puts response.code
else
RestClient.post "https://localhost:3000/auth", "email: #{email},password:#{pass}"
end
I would like for the cli app to send a request to API, That's it, rest-client doesn't want to cooperate with me. Thank You :D
Likely the port 3000 you access is only http:// and not https://. Accessing a plain http:// port with https:// will cause the client to interpret the servers HTTP error message (since the beginning of the TLS handshake sent by the client was not valid HTTP) wrongly as HTTPS which can result in strange errors like invalid packet length or also wrong version number.
I'm using a local server to test an application, and make requests to that server from my own machine.
The test server's SSL is bad, and HTTParty throws errors because of that. From what I read, HTTParty should ignore SSL by default, but when I try to do this:
HTTParty.get( "#{ #settings.api_server }#{ url }" ).parsed_response
It throws this error:
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError at /
SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed
How do I make it ignore the SSL?
In the latest HTTParty, you can use the verify option to disable SSL verification;
HTTParty.get( "#{ #settings.api_server }#{ url }", :verify => false ).parsed_response
To make HTTParty always skip SSL cert verification, and not have to specify this in every call:
require 'httparty'
HTTParty::Basement.default_options.update(verify: false)
HTTParty.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url1}")
HTTParty.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url2}")
HTTParty.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url3}")
# ...
You can also do this scoped to a class when including HTTParty as a module:
require 'httparty'
class Client
include HTTParty
default_options.update(verify: false)
end
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url1}")
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url2}")
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url3}")
Or
require 'httparty'
module APIHelpers
class Client
include HTTParty
default_options.update(verify: false)
end
end
World(APIHelpers)
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url1}")
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url2}")
Client.get("#{#settings.api_ssl_server}#{url3}")
If you want to still send your certificates, use this flag:
verify_peer: false
This may be totally off base, as I'm new to Ruby, but this is what worked for me when other solutions wouldnt
OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
Additional ways of doing this, if you get a 'dynamic constant assignment' (pulled from here)
OpenSSL::SSL.const_set(:VERIFY_PEER, OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE)
My code:
require 'machanize'
agent = Mechanize.new
agent.user_agent = 'Mac Safari'
page = agent.get 'https://github.com
Everything is ok. But here what i've got if try to use proxy
require 'machanize'
agent = Mechanize.new
agent.user_agent = 'Mac Safari'
agent.set_proxy 'X.X.X.X', <port>
page = agent.get 'https://github.com
i've got
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A
I've also tried to turn off validation of cert, trying different certs and other. Any way, this error i've only got when trying to use proxy. Any ideas?
It was problem in 'openssl' program. I've installed postgresql.app on my system and it change PATH env to it self. So, same programs comes from poesgresql.app and openssl too. Problem was solved with correcting path, to make system's openssl preferred by default.
I'm trying to use ruby to do a search based on account 1234, but I keep getting an SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 certificate error. The site is signed, but for some reason Ruby doesn't like it. The certificate is properly signed, so I'm not sure why it's rejecting it.
require 'net/http'
uri = URI("https://secure.domain.com/api/account/1234?api_key"+key)
response = Net::HTTP.get(uri)
puts response.body #this must show the JSON contents
Based on another suggestion I also tried, but received the same error.
Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port,
:use_ssl => uri.scheme == 'https') do |http|
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new uri
response = http.request request # Net::HTTPResponse object
end
Turns out the error was due to Windows not having support for something like OpenSSL built in. After installing the appropriate binaries onto the system it worked without error.
This is the code I'm using to connect to the SSL site.
require 'mechanize'
a = Mechanize.new
page = a.get 'https://site.com'
I"m using using Ruby 1.9.3 and Mechanize 2.1pre1 + dependencies. On Mac the above code works and returns the page. On windows 7 running the same versions it gives me the following error:
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3
read server certificate B: certificate verify failed
Reverting to Mechanize 2.0.1 seems to solve this problem, but I then get plagued with the too many connections reset by peer problem. Thus that is not a solution.
I've tried doing a.verify_mode = false, but that does not do anything. I have read that you can turn off SSL verification by using:
open(uri,:ssl_verify_mode => OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE)
How can I turn it off in Mechanize ? Why am I only getting this error on Windows ?
The version of OpenSSL (the library used to establish secure connections with Net::HTTPS) is not able to properly find the certificate chain in your computer.
To our bad, OpenSSL was never able to use the Windows installed cert storage to validate remote servers so is failing because of that.
From your example, you can do:
a.agent.http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
To avoid the verification, however that is far from ideal (due clear security issues)
I recommend you download some cert bundles (like the ones from curl):
http://curl.haxx.se/ca
And modify your code to something like this:
require "rbconfig"
require "mechanize"
a = Mechanize.new
# conditionally set certificate under Windows
# http://blog.emptyway.com/2009/11/03/proper-way-to-detect-windows-platform-in-ruby/
if RbConfig::CONFIG["host_os"] =~ /mingw|mswin/
# http://curl.haxx.se/ca
ca_path = File.expand_path "~/Tools/bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt"
a.agent.http.ca_file = ca_path
end
page = a.get "https://github.com/"
That seems to work, Ruby 1.9.3-p0 (i386-mingw32), Windows 7 x64 and mechanize 2.1.pre.1
Hope that helps.
Luis' answer looks fine but more generally:
OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
You can simply do the following:
agent = Mechanize.new
agent.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
This worked on the latest version 2.8
