I have a fresh kubernetes cluster (version 1.18) deployed using Rancher on a fresh Ubuntu Server 20.04. The problem I'm facing is that each https request made from any pod is failing with the following message:

curl -v https://pypi.org/simple/pip/
*   Trying 44.227.65.245...
* Connected to pypi.org (44.227.65.245) port 443 (#0)
* found 173 certificates in /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
* found 692 certificates in /etc/ssl/certs
* ALPN, offering http/1.1
* gnutls_handshake() failed: Handshake failed
* Closing connection 0
curl: (35) gnutls_handshake() failed: Handshake failed

I've tested it using

kubectl create deployment hello-node --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4
kubectl exec -it <pod_id> bash

I tried the same thing via ssh on the host system and everything was working properly. I also tried running standalone docker container (on the same machine) with the same image as pod (docker run -it --rm k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4 bash) and there were no problems here as well. So I'm guessing that this is something related to my kubernetes setup.

It happend only with https requests - http requests are working properly.

I tried to remove the cluster and prepare it from scratch but this didn't help.

UPDATE:

I'm receiving two types of messages, depending on the server I'm trying to connect:

I found this two messages appearing together described here: https://blog.techstacks.com/2010/03/3-common-causes-of-unknown-ssl-protocol-errors-with-curl.html

The Destination Site Does Not Like the Cipher You could be trying to connect to the site using an ssl cipher that the site is configured to reject. For example, anonymous ciphers are typically disabled on ssl-encrypted sites that are customer-facing. (Many of us set a blanket rejection policy on any SSL-encrypted web site—regardless of it's purpose.) The following command string "can" also result in the curl (35) error:

curl --ciphers ADH-RC4-MD5 https://some_web_site.some_domain.com/ Unfortunately, the type of error response you can get from curl depends largely upon the ssl server. On some sites, you'll receive the Unknown SSL Protocol error but on my techstacks-tools site, I get:

curl: (35) error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure

Another thing I dicovered is that I prepare the same environment on the DigitalOcean droplet and ther were no problems there.

My bare metal environment is not available from the world, it stands inside internal network - maybe this is somehow related?

I also tried to setup k8s using microk8s but the problem still occurs so this is probably not related to rancher but only to my machine setup.

  • Any chance that you are using Proxy in your use case? Sep 11, 2020 at 8:17
  • The only "proxy" is probably ingress but I'm not sure if it's participating in outbound traffic as well

  • @John This is not exactly what mdaniel has asked for. We need your Pod's YAML. Also, what is your firewall configuration (if present)? Sep 15, 2020 at 11:10

The OP chose not to post an answer, but did say that they solved the problem:

The problem was that there was were some strange domains added in the search part of /etc/resolve.conf on the host. And when I was trying to make a https request I have been redirected by DNS to some other server responding with plain http.

Correcting the DNS settings solved the problem.
