#202 closed Bug / Defect ( fixed )

easy-rsa/whichopensslcnf does not detect openssl 1.0.1 correctly

Reported by: Bevan Owned by: Eric Crist

Component: Generic / unclassified Version: OpenVPN 2.2.2 (Community Ed)
Severity: Not set (select this one, unless your'e a OpenVPN developer) Keywords: easy-rsa whichopensslcnf openssl

Description

The script whichopensslcnf which is part of easy-rsa does some checks on the openssl version to determine which configuration file should be used.

The problem is that the regular expression
"1\.0\.( :digit:? :alnum:? )"
does match the version string 1.0.1, which is the current version of openssl.

The exact output of "openssl version" here on a current Arch Linux system is:
OpenSSL 1.0.1 14 Mar 2012

Changing the expression in the script to
"1\.0\.( :digit:? :alnum:? ?)"
should solve this issue.

Please tell me, if I can help with any further information.

It appears this optional flag in the regex for the alphanumeric character at the end is in the current version of easy-rsa, unless I'm missing something. 

elif $OPENSSL version | grep -E "1\.0\.[[:digit:]][[:alnum:]]?" > /dev/null; then
