error trying to connect: tls handshake eof

[enjikaka]

For some reason doing a GET on https://copernicus.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/Corine/CLC2018_WM/MapServer/0?f=json
crashes Deno with:

error: Uncaught Http: error sending request for url (https://copernicus.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/Corine/CLC2018_WM/MapServer/0?f=json): 
error trying to connect: tls handshake eof

Works fine with curl and client side JS. Something wrong with SSL management in Deno? Calling on HTTP doesn't work either since Deno upgrades to HTTPS.

Steps to reproduce

Source:

const layerInfoURL = 'https://copernicus.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/Corine/CLC2018_WM/MapServer/0?f=json';
const json = await fetch(layerInfoURL).then(r => r.json());

console.log(json);

or

deno run --allow-net https://deno.land/x/gh:enjikaka:terrain-server/poor_api.ts

Version

deno 1.1.1
v8 8.5.104
typescript 3.9.2
macOS 10.15.5 (19F101)
also fails in docker on hayd/alpine-deno:1.1.1

I'm having the same issue. ATM, I'm dead in the water as this is a blocking issue for me to adopt Deno.

I have a POST request to a remote REST API that uses a standard GoDaddy Cert so it's not self signed like I'm seeing in other issues. From my understanding the issue's root is with the TLS method used but I'm unclear how to change or correct it.

I can successfully make the call using Node or GO. The Go code used for reference is below with certain details changed due to security and confidentiality issues.

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"io/ioutil"
	"net/http"
	"strings"
)

func main() {

	url := "https://api.test.com/webapi/api/session"
	method := "POST"

	payload := strings.NewReader("{\"UserId\":\"test@test.com\",\"Password\":\"P@$$w0rd\",\"SourceSystem\":\"BUDDY\"}")

	client := &http.Client{}
	req, err := http.NewRequest(method, url, payload)

	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
	req.Header.Add("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8")

	res, err := client.Do(req)
	defer res.Body.Close()
	body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)

	fmt.Println(string(body))
}

I temporarily solved it on my end by proxying through another cert. https://github.com/Freeboard/thingproxy

[zinthose]

I did try adding cors and origin to my request headers using soxa but to no effect.
The response headers from the server I'm attempting to connect to is below if some insight can be gleamed from it that I'm not seeing:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Length: 461
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 12:52:13 GMT
Expires: -1
Pragma: no-cache
Server: Microsoft-IIS/8.5
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

@enjikaka I'll look into thingproxy as a temporary solution.

[enjikaka]

@zinthose CORS doesn't matter here. It's the HTTPS management in Deno and/or the rust lib it uses that doesn't handle specific certs correctly. With that thingproxy it'll use another cert that Deno doesn't error on, which is a temporary hack around the issue. :)

To compare here's curl -v with the plain server vs proxied response:

I think ALPN, server did not agree to a protocol is the issue here?

[zinthose]

I did a DIFF compare with the results below. It dose appear the protocol is the issue.

[zinthose]

FYI: I created a thingproxy docker image for the time being as an alternative workaround for others.

[zinthose]

I know it seems silly to put so much effort into a workaround, but here you go anyway. 🤪

I created a module, zinthose/thingproxy-deno , that can replace the fetch api to automatically forward requests through a thingproxy server.

⚠️ The module is fairly simple but may still have bugs. ⚠️

Example

const response = await phetch("https://postman-echo.com/get?foo1=bar1&oo2=bar2"); 
console.log(response.status); 
// e.g. 200 console.log(response.statusText); 
// e.g. "OK" const jsonData = await response.json();

Looking at the rustls library page, it looks to only support AESGCM not AES.

The europa.eu site only supports weak ciphers that rustls doesn't support.

Not really sure where to go from here / suggest. @ry got any ideas?

[enjikaka]

It's quite a showstopper for using Deno if you can't consume certain third-party APIs... Will be bad for adoption.

Is rustls planning support? Otherwise I guess an alternative needs to be evaluated.

[jacobgc]

I agree completely. In an ideal world though these sites would upgrade their SSL certs to more modern ciphers. However this isn't going to happen. I dont think rustls has any plans to add in AES without GCM however I'll raise an issue and see what I get back.

[jacobgc]

Got a reply at rustls/rustls#381 The host runs an old version of IIS and thus has old certificates that just aren't supported. Not sure what else to suggest. They need to move with the times. For now, I'd suggest keeping with the proxy setup you've got going.
