Re: Random and rare Seg faults at openssl library level

Hi team,
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man3/CRYPTO_set_locking_callback.html :  From this , learnt that for openssl multi-threaded applications to be run safely, the callback functions to be implemented.

I am using this in a multi-threaded application and Above scenario was again recreated and in that case 2 threads were calling RSA_verify (same stack above). However, for SSL_do_handshake, SSL* objects are given separately and they are not shared between threads. So, we have not implemented callback functions.

Could you please clarify whether we need to implement locking callbacks for multi-threaded applications  even if the ssl objects we supply are provided separately for threads?

Many thanks.

Dear team,
I'm running an application which uses openssl for secure communication between processes. I am getting seg-faults at openssl level. This only occurred very randomly and the following are stacks that seg faults  at openssl level in the given 2 cases. We are using openssl 1.0.2k. 

Went through the security vulnerabilities list for this version but couldn't find a clue. Running valgrind too didn't give an exact clue related to the issue. Can you please guide me how can I find the exact root cause for the seg fault?  

I am calling SSL_do_handshake(ssl_ctx) from my code level and both the below seg faults are occuring from it's inside.

  I am setting context to use SSLv23_method() s. However, I can see ssl3_ methods being called. Is there any issue with that?  

Given below is SSL* object passed to SSL_do_handshake method.
