Description Nicolas Werner 2022-11-18 00:31:20 UTC
When enabling http3 support using quiche, that conflicts with the openssl flag. If both are linked into the binary, the wrong ssl lib seems to get picked up for the SSL_new symbol. This then causes a crash, since the ssl_method field is initialized to an invalid value when trying to do a http3 connection. This is because quiche uses a bundled boringssl library with the same symbol.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build curl with openssl and quiche
2. curl --http3 (some http3 host here)
3. Segfault
Actual Results:  
It crashes

gentoo:~ % curl -vvvvv --http3 https://quic.rocks:4433/
*   Trying 216.155.158.183:4433...
*  CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
*  CApath: /etc/ssl/certs
zsh: segmentation fault  curl -vvvvv --http3 https://quic.rocks:4433/

Expected Results:  
It does the same as with http2, just that curl uses http3

You can work around this by using curl with the gnutls and nghttp3 backends or just not enabling quiche.

net-misc/curl-7.86.0-r3::gentoo was built with the following:
USE="adns alt-svc ftp http2 imap ipv6 openssl pop3 progress-meter quiche smtp ssl tftp websockets zstd -brotli -gnutls -gopher -hsts -idn -kerberos -ldap -mbedtls -nghttp3 -nss -rtmp -samba -ssh -sslv3 -static-libs -telnet -test -verify-sig" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" CURL_SSL="openssl -gnutls -mbedtls -nss"

    net-misc/curl: add 7.88.0
    
    drop ipv6 and quiche USE
    
    Using quiche requires building cURL with the same SSL flavour
    as the quiche library (i.e. BoringSSL). This is currently
    unsupported on Gentoo.
    
    Drop `ipv6` USE; it doesn't require additional deps and `--ipv4`
    can be used at runtime to force connectivity in dual-stack configurations.
