[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#776308: nagios-nrpe-server: Bad SSL_shutdown() causes "Return code of 141 is out of bounds" SIGPIPE/TCP RST

[Ivan Vilata i Balaguer]

Package: nagios-nrpe-server
Version: 2.13-3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch

Hi, I wanted to report that the version on ``nagios-nrpe-server`` in Wheezy
suffers from [Nagios bug #305](http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=305),
which (at least in out case) causes some test to alternatively return a normal
WARNING or an unexpected CRITICAL error with the message "Return code of 141 is
out of bounds" caused by a TCP RST packet sent by the server to the client
because of an incomplete ``SSL_shutdown()`` that causes an incomplete read and
thus a SIGPIPE.

Fortunately the patch ``nrpe-ssl_shutdown-2.patch`` attached to the ticket
applies cleanly to the current 2.13-3 source code and generates a package which
doesn't suffer the problem.

Thanks!
