Ошибка ssl certificate problem self signed certificate in certificate chain

I try to send curl request with my correct APP_ID, APP_SECRET etc. to the

  https://oauth.vk.com/access_token?client_id=APP_ID&client_secret=APP_SECRET&code=7a6fa4dff77a228eeda56603b8f53806c883f011c40b72630bb50df056f6479e52a&redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI 

I need to get access_token from it, but get a FALSE and curl_error() print next message otherwise:

60: SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain

My code is:

    // create curl resource
    $ch = curl_init();

    // set url
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    //return the transfer as a string
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

    // $output contains the output string
    $output = curl_exec($ch);
    if ( ! $output) {
        print curl_errno($ch) .': '. curl_error($ch);
    }

    // close curl resource to free up system resources
    curl_close($ch);

    return $output;

When I move manually to the link above, I get access_token well. Why it doesn’t work with curl? Help, please.

Answers suggesting to disable CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER should not be accepted. The question is «Why doesn’t it work with cURL», and as correctly pointed out by Martijn Hols, it is dangerous.

The error is probably caused by not having an up-to-date bundle of CA root certificates. This is typically a text file with a bunch of cryptographic signatures that curl uses to verify a host’s SSL certificate.

You need to make sure that your installation of PHP has one of these files, and that it’s up to date (otherwise download one here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html).

Then set in php.ini:

curl.cainfo = <absolute_path_to> cacert.pem

If you are setting it at runtime, use (where $ch = curl_init();):

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CAINFO, dirname(__FILE__)."/cacert.pem");

This workaround is dangerous and not recommended:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

It’s not a good idea to disable SSL peer verification. Doing so might expose your requests to MITM attackers.

In fact, you just need an up-to-date CA root certificate bundle. Installing an updated one is as easy as:

  1. Downloading up-to-date cacert.pem file from cURL website and

  2. Setting a path to it in your php.ini file, e.g. on Windows:

    curl.cainfo=c:phpcacert.pem

That’s it!

Stay safe and secure.

If the SSL certificates are not properly installed in your system, you may get this error:

cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer
certificate.

You can solve this issue as follows:

Download a file with the updated list of certificates from https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem

Move the downloaded cacert.pem file to some safe location in your system

Update your php.ini file and configure the path to that file:

Important: This issue drove me crazy for a couple days and I couldn’t figure out what was going on with my curl & openssl installations. I finally figured out that it was my intermediate certificate (in my case, GoDaddy) which was out of date. I went back to my godaddy SSL admin panel, downloaded the new intermediate certificate, and the issue disappeared.

I’m sure this is the issue for some of you.

Apparently, GoDaddy had changed their intermediate certificate at some point, due to scurity issues, as they now display this warning:

«Please be sure to use the new SHA-2 intermediate certificates included in your downloaded bundle.»

Hope this helps some of you, because I was going nuts and this cleaned up the issue on ALL my servers.

To add a more specific answer, I ran into this when using Guzzle v7, the PHP HTTP request package. Guzzle allows you to bypass this like so:

use GuzzleHttpClient;

$this->client = new Client([
    'verify' => false,
]);

If you’re using a self-signed certificate on your Bitbucket server, you may receive SSL certificate errors when you try to perform certain actions. This page will help you resolve these errors.

Problem

When trying to perform a clone using instructions stated in Debug logging for Git operations on the client the following error is reported:

$ export GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1

$ git clone https://username@git.example.com/scm/repository.git
Cloning into 'repository'...
* Couldn't find host git.example.com in the _netrc file; using defaults

* - Conn 0 (0x22a7568) send_pipe: 1, recv_pipe: 0
* About to connect() to git.example.com port 443 (#0)
*   Trying 10.253.136.142...
* Connected to git.example.com (10.253.136.142) port 443 (#0)
* successfully set certificate verify locations:
*   CAfile: C:Program Files (x86)Git/bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt
  CApath: c:/Users/username/Downloads
* SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain
* Closing connection 0
fatal: unable to access 'https://username@git.example.com/scm/repository.git': SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain

Cause

This is caused by git not trusting the certificate provided by your server.

Workaround

One possible workaround is to temporary disable SSL check for your git command in case you only need to perform a one time clone:

GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true git clone https://username@git.example.com/scm/repository.git

or

git remote add origin <gitrepo>
git config --global http.sslVerify false

The workaround is intended to be used for one-time only operations and not to be used frequently. Removing the SSL verification disproves the whole concept of having SSL implemented.

Resolution

Step1: Get a self-signed certificate of the remote server

There is multiple ways of exporting the certificate, Either from the Browser or using the OpenSSL command

Get Certificate using OpenSSL

Get Certificate using OpenSSL

$ echo | openssl s_client -servername NAME -connect HOST:PORT |
  sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > certificate.pem

Get Certificate using the Web browser

Export Certificate in MAC

Trust Certificate in your browser

To trust a self-signed certificate, you need to add it to your Keychain.

The easiest way to do that is to open the site in question in Safari, upon which you should get this dialog box:

Click ‘Show Certificate’ to reveal the full details:

Export Certificate in .pem format

Git doesn’t use the Mac OS X keychain to resolve this, so you need to trust the certificate explicitly. 

  1. If you haven’t done so already, follow the steps in ‘Trust certificate in your browser, above
  2. Open Applications > Keychain Access and select ‘Certificates’ in the lower-left pane
  3. Type the website into the Search field in the top-right
  4. Select the certificate entry for the website, then in the menu click File > Export Items
  5. In the Save dialog, change ‘File Format’ to ‘Privacy Enhanced Mail (.pem)’ and save the file somewhere on your drive

Export Certificate From Firefox

  • Access the URL of the remote server
  • Click the Open padlock in the address bar.

  • Click the arrow beside OpenConnection Secure.

  • Click More Information. The OpenPage Info dialog box opens.

  • Click View Certificate.
  • The Certificate page opens.
  • Scroll down to the Miscellaneous section.
  • In the Download row, click the PEM (cert) link.
  • In the dialog box that opens, click OK to save the certificate file to a known location.
  • Navigate to the location for saving the file, and then click Save.

Step 2: Configure Git to trust the Certificate

For MAC/Linux:

Once the certificate is saved on the client you can instruct your git client to use it to trust the remote repository by updating the local git config:

# Initial clone
GIT_SSL_CAINFO=/path/to/certificate.pem
git clone https://username@git.example.com/scm/repository.git

# Ensure all future interactions with origin remote also work
cd repository
git config http.sslCAInfo /path/to/certificate.pem

For Windows Client:

Step 1: Import  the certificate into the window trust store

Import a signed certificate into the local machine certificate store

  • Enter Start | Run | MMC.
  • Click File | Add/Remove Snap-in.

Image

  • In the Add or Remove Snap-ins window, select Certificates and click Add.

Image

  • Select the Computer account radio button when prompted and click Next

Image

  • Select Local computer (selected by default) and click Finish.

Image

  • Back in the Add or Remove Snap-ins window, click OK.

Image

  • In the MMC main console, click on the plus (+) symbol to expand the Certificate snap-in.
  • To import the CA certificate, navigate to Trusted Root Certification Authorities | Certificates pane.

Image

  • Right-click within the Certificates panel and click All Tasks | Import to start the Certificate Import wizard.

Image

Image

Image

  • On successfully importing the CA certificate the wizard will bring you back to the MMC main console.

Image

  • Close the MMC console.
Step 2: Configure git to use the certificate in the windows Trust store

When using Windows, the problem resides that git by default uses the «Linux» crypto backend. Starting with Git for Windows 2.14, you can configure Git to use SChannel, the built-in Windows networking layer as the crypto backend. To do that, just run the following command in the GIT client:

git config --global http.sslbackend schannel

This means that it will use the Windows certificate storage mechanism and you don’t need to explicitly configure the curl CA storage (http.sslCAInfo) mechanism. Once you have updated the git config, Git will use the Certificate in the Windows certificate store and should not require http.sslCAInfo setting.

  • Since npm stopped automatically accepting self-signed certificates, users have started to report errors while trying to publish some packages in certain applications.
  • The error can be fixed, usually, by upgrading the package manager or use the known registrars.

For some time now, developers encountered a SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN error during installing and publishing packages in certain applications and developer tools such as Node.js, npm, or Git.

Until a few years ago, when npm for instance announced that they would no longer support self-signed certificates.

This means that the certificate verification process was no longer automatic. So developers now have to set up their application to see the self-signed certificates.


How do I fix self-signed certificate in the certificate chain?

self signed certificate in certificate chain

Depending on the tool you’re using, there are a few recommendations. Some are risky, some are safe. One thing is clear, though: you should not attempt to disable the certification verification process altogether.

For Node.js

You can insert an environment variable to allow untrusted certificates using the following command at the beginning of the code:

process.env['NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED'] = 0;

This is risky and it’s not recommended to be used in production. Alternatively, use npm config set strict-ssl=false if you have to do this for many applications and you want to save repeating the process.

Users also suggest upgrading your version of Node, to fixes any existing bugs and vulnerabilities.


For npm

The recommended solution is, again, to upgrade your version of npm running one of the following:

npm install npm -g --ca=null 

npm update npm -g

Or,  tell your current version of npm to use known registrars, and after installing, stop using them:

npm config set ca ""
npm install npm -g
npm config delete ca

Some users mentioned that they only switched the registry URL from https to http:

npm config set registry="http://registry.npmjs.org/"

We hope that one of these suggestions helped you fix the problem. Should you have any recommendations, please use the comments section below.
