Summary0005686: REHASH after moving ssl options results in SSL connect failures
DescriptionHello,

I have under set { ssl { } } set the certificates either too under listen { } block , i read on docs that if i have already set under set { ssl { } } the certificates then does not need too to set them in listen { } block too, but when i remove them from the listen block then the client cannot connect on the ssl port because of ssl certificate verification fail.

NOTE: As syzop said due a short lookup, it seems that /REHASH doesn't work in that case (probably).

unrealircd.conf ::

listen {
        ip *;
        port 6697;
        options { tls; }
        tls-options {
                certificate "/etc/letsencrypt/live/DOMAIN/fullchain.pem";
                key "/etc/letsencrypt/live/DOMAIN/privkey.pem";
        }
}
 
set {
    ssl {
        protocols "all";
        certificate "/etc/letsencrypt/live/DOMAIN/fullchain.pem";
        key "/etc/letsencrypt/live/DOMAIN/privkey.pem";
        trusted-ca-file "curl-ca-bundle.crt";
       
        sts-policy {
            port 6697;
            duration 180d;
        }
    }
}

I can verify after testing that on /REHASH didn't worked but it did on /RESTART

Hm, I'm not sure. I've looked again the code and now I can see it properly frees the listen-specific SSL/TLS context, the options, etc. So it looks all correct.

Perhaps this was a different issue, related to REHASH -tls? The one that has been fixed a few weeks ago in git (after your bug report):

commit ca6630a2fb622ce59b8b59a20ea6f5fdb69c337b

    Fix "called a function you should not call" server linking error that
    happens if all of the following are true:
    1) You use link::outgoing::tls-options (or ssl-options)
    2) You do a REHASH -tls (or REHASH -ssl)
    3) You do NOT do a regular REHASH
    4) You try to link to the server in such a link block (outgoing!)
    
    In other words: the problem may happen if you try to link after
    a Let's Encrypt cert renewal, unless there has been a regular
    REHASH between that and the outgoing linking attempt.

Or maybe it even was something else?

I am too lazy to setup a public test installation with let's encrypt etc though :D

I ditched my lazyness and tried to reproduce with:
listen with tls-options::certificate and tls-options::key while also having set::tls::certificate and set::tls::key.
TLS connected fine with no warnings/errors.
I then removed all the tls-options and REHASHed
TLS still connected fine with no warnings/errors.

So I cannot reproduce (anymore). But then again, I am on latest git.
