Python/sockets/ssl EOF occurred in violation of protocol

Viewed 2869

I would like to authenticate the server at client's side in my echo client/server program. I'm using python 2.7.12 and the ssl module on

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release:        14.04
Codename:       trusty

I've generated client's and server's certificates and keys using the openssl commands:

openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out client.pem -keyout client.key
openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out server.pem -keyout server.key

Versions of openssl library itself and openssl used by python are the same:

python -c "import ssl; print ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION"

However, the code below shows some errors, at server's side: EOF occurred in violation of protocol (_ssl.c:1645) (but the server still works), and at client's side:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Server's code:

#!/bin/usr/env python
import socket
import ssl

def main():
    HOST = '127.0.0.1'
    PORT = 1234

    sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    sock.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
    sock.bind((HOST, PORT))
    sock.listen(5)

    while True:
        conn = None
        client_sock, addr = sock.accept()
        try:
            ssl_client = ssl.wrap_socket(client_sock, server_side=True, certfile="server.pem", keyfile="server.key", ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2)
            data =  ssl_client.read(1024)
            print data
            ssl_client.write(data)
        except ssl.SSLError as e:
            print(e)
        finally:
            if conn:
                conn.close()
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Client:

#!/bin/usr/env python
import socket
import ssl

if __name__ == '__main__':

    HOST = '127.0.0.1'
    PORT = 1234

    sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    sock.connect((HOST, PORT))

    context = ssl.SSLContext(ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2)
    context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_REQUIRED
    context.load_verify_locations('server.pem')

    if ssl.HAS_SNI:
        secure_sock = context.wrap_socket(sock, server_hostname=HOST)
    else:
        secure_sock = context.wrap_socket(sock)

    cert = secure_sock.getpeercert()
    print cert

    if not cert or ('commonName', 'test') not in cert['subject'][4]: raise Exception("Error" )

    secure_sock.write('hello')

    print secure_sock.read(1024)

    secure_sock.close()
    sock.close()

All files are in the same directory.
