Hi,
I ported/compiled openssl into vxworks with goAhead webserver. Using the
HTTP works fine without any problems! However, when accessing the same page
with HTTPS, vxworks gets an exception. After some debugging it looks like
its related to the RAND library with openssl. Typing "RAND_status" at the
terminal will cause the same crash!
The ">>>" indicates where the crash happens (when attempting to access
HTTPS).
int ssl23_accept(SSL *s)
{
BUF_MEM *buf;
unsigned long Time=time(NULL);
void (*cb)(const SSL *ssl,int type,int val)=NULL;
int ret= -1;
int new_state,state;
>>> RAND_add(&Time,sizeof(Time),0);
ERR_clear_error();
clear_sys_error();
....
It looks like I don't have the RAND seeded properly. How can I fix this? Did
anyone have this problem?
Thanks
