I don't know much about the OOM killer of the Linux kernel. As far as I can understand your machine is our of memory and the kernel selects a process to kill in an attempt to recover. Which exact part of the log suggest a memory leak in openfofrtivpn? Perhaps total-vm:1245576kB
which seems to imply that openfortivpn is consuming > 1 GB of RAM? Also an oom_score
of 295 is pretty bad as far as I can understand.
Which exact Linux distribution is this? Which exact version of the kernel?
Also how much RAM do you have on your system? How many openfortivpn processes do you run in parallel and how much memory do they consume?
Sorry for not updating sooner. The box is a VPS running on Digital Ocean. I have two public IP's on the FortiNet device and I have a connectivity to each one. The VPS has 3GB of ram. Top shows each connection using 13 % of ram:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
25264 root 20 0 737748 383988 2828 S 0.0 13.2 10:14.85 openfortivpn
25301 root 20 0 728668 383196 2828 S 0.0 13.1 12:59.74 openfortivpn
The box shows the actual total as 2846:
[root@noc2 ~]# free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 2846 1515 250 152 1080 1022
Swap: 0 0 0
So 2846 * 0.13 is 370MB. Does it make sense that each one is using 370MB?
I am going to watch both processes and see it's usage over the next week.
I don't see openfortivpn using that much memory on my Ubuntu 18.04 workstation:

Especially the resident size RES
is worrying in your case (383988) compared to the size in my case (6536).
Which Linux distribution is this? Have you built and installed openfortivpn from source? Or used a package bundled with your distribution?
What about the parameters passed to the openfortivpn command and/or the contents of the openfortivpn configuration file?
I really don't see the RES
value changing over time here, whatever I do: downloading/uploading a large file, remote graphical session, etc.

On the other hand I wouldn't expect memory leaks during "usual" operation, they would have been already reported. Is there anything special in your setup? Have you tried running a single instance of openfortivpn?
Hi,
I did not see anything further in dmesg. I did create systemd scripts to start openfortivpn. Currently when I check the status for one of them I see: Feb 13 14:29:52 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Remote gateway has allocated a VPN. Feb 13 14:29:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: ERROR: forkpty: Cannot allocate memory Feb 13 14:29:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Closed connection to gateway. Feb 13 14:29:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Logged out. Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Connected to gateway. Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Authenticated. Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Remote gateway has allocated a VPN. Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: ERROR: forkpty: Cannot allocate memory Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Closed connection to gateway. Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: INFO: Logged out.
If I then kill the pid for openfortivpn it will start again and come up. The box has more than enough free memory.
[root@noc2 ~]# free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 2846 1939 693 152 213 646 Swap: 0 0 0 [root@noc2 ~]#
I also think I found another possible issue. My ugly hack to get around this issue was to write a bash script like this: HE_TUNN=$(/usr/sbin/ip route | grep XX.XX.XX.XX | wc -l) if (( $HE_TUNN < 1 )); then /usr/bin/date /usr/bin/echo "starting HE VPN" /usr/bin/echo "HE TUN IS $HE_TUNN" systemctl restart ssl_vpn_he sleep 10 fi
The problem is even if the link was down the route was still in the system so my script was wrothless. If the status is logged out why would I see a route if I was logged out?
This doesn't look good:
Feb 13 14:30:53 noc2 openfortivpn[25644]: ERROR: forkpty: Cannot allocate memory
I really don't know. There's a memory leak somewhere, probably not in openfortivpn. You may get some inspiration from pages such as:
For example you may:
ps --sort -rss -eo rss,pid,command | head
ulimit -a
Not sure I understand you last message about your scripts and the routes, but my guess is that openfortivpn cannot not clean up if it is killed abruptly by the system. It's best to let systemd restart openfortivpn for you instead of relying on your script which is indeed a hack :-)
Which exact Linux distribution are you running?
[root@noc2 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core) [root@noc2 ~]#
The Linux distribution is recent, nothing suspect here.
Now openfortivpn does use more memory on your server than on my own machine. Perhaps this is related to the double connection to the two public IP addresses of the FortiGate device. Apart form the memory problem do you see any other issues with openfortivpn (slowness, lost packets)? For testing purposes, could you limit yourself to a single connection to the FortiGate device and see if it helps in any way? Then could you show the output of route
before starting openfortivpn, after starting the first instance of openfortivpn and after starting the second instance?
Finally for debugging purposes if would help if you could put yourself in the simplest possible configuration:
You may obfuscate logs and such, but if you do so please obfuscate in a clear and consistent way. For example make sure we can see the two different (though obfuscated) public IP addresses of the FortiGate device and keep these addresses consistent in posts.
Finally I suggest you also investigate possible memory leaks and issues elsewhere:
ulimit -a
ps --sort -rss -eo rss,pid,command | head
I am sorry for the delayed response, it's been busy here. While working on an unrelated issue I found in the logs: Feb 23 20:17:47 noc2 openfortivpn: ERROR: socket: Too many open files Feb 23 20:17:47 noc2 openfortivpn: INFO: Closed connection to gateway. Feb 23 20:17:47 noc2 openfortivpn: ERROR: socket: Too many open files Feb 23 20:17:47 noc2 openfortivpn: INFO: Could not log out.

I can write a script to look for OpenForti PID's that more fore then say 900 fd's and systemd will re-launch but if there is a bit I would prefer to fix it.
Interesting. So the root cause would be a socket leak in openfortivpn. I'm no certain the socket leak can result in the memory leak you also experience. Are these leaks different issues or the same issue?
Just wondering why this had never been noticed before.
Does this happen with a single instance of openfortivpn running? Or with two instances of openfortivpn only?
It's currently happening when we have multiple instances. What's strange is that it will happen to all of them over time. So today it will hit one and tomorrow it will hit another. From what I recall we only had one running and we started having these issues which is why we now have three of them.
I don't know if the memory leak errors are because there are no fd's (so it see's that it's "out of memory") or the leak is causing the sockets to leak or they are one of the same. We can only have one session up if would like. I can then write something that will check every minute for how many files are open for the PID.
Another thing you could do is add some debugging code where sockets are opened/closed:
close(tunnel->ssl_socket)
handle = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
close(handle)
close(tunnel->ssl_socket)
BTW it occurs to me that we don't check the return value of close() but I don't know whether we should expect the function to fail often on a socket. I can add some code to at least print a warning if close() fails.
Also it would help to know the options passed to openfortivpn. Are you passing the --persistent
option for example?
Dimitri,
This is what I am using:
/usr/local/bin/openfortivpn XX.XX.XX.XX:12443 -u dovid -p
I would try without --persistent
- but then it might be difficult to reproduce the problem if openfortivpn goes down after a few hours. Could you perhaps monitor the number of sockets with/without --persistent
?
Dimitri,
No problem. I wrote a script that will check how many connections per openfortipd there are that have a connection that is in CLOSE_WAIT.
I was reading over https://blog.cloudflare.com/this-is-strictly-a-violation-of-the-tcp-specification/ and decided to do netstat -anp to show the pid. What I am seeing is:
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:42124 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 5763/pppd
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:46780 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 7458/pppd
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:43604 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 7458/pppd
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:60180 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 7505/pppd
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:41730 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 5763/pppd
tcp 1 0 y.y.y.y:59662 x.x.x.x:11542 CLOSE_WAIT 5763/pppd
Is the bug with pppd rather then openfortivpn?
It seems like there is a leak every 6 minutes. Below is the output of my log. I am going to remove the persistent flag and will see how it goes. From what I recall I needed it as without it, the FortiNet device would end the connection after 8 hours and the systemd script would just sit there (since openforivpn never actually exited).

[2020-02-26 07:10:01][25503] There are more then 100 entries for root 25503 0.1 3.1 438516 92108 ? Ssl Feb25 1:20 /usr/local/bin/openfortivpn z.z.z.z 12443 -u
Indeed openfortivpn execs pppd and at first sight the socket leak could be related to pppd.
Also I was suggesting to remove --persistent
as a mere test, not as permanent solution. No worries here.
Finally I have noted why you're using --persistent
- which I cannot use at my place because we have a token which generates one time passwords. It would be interesting to have openfortivpn detect when the Fortinet device ends the connection, either explicitly if the Fortinet device actually reports this event or implicitly by having openfortivpn monitor the connection and exit (after a time-out) the connection seems dead. Then you could have systemd restart openfortivpn when needed.
On second thought, what I don't understand is that if openfortivpn is able to restart a connection when needed with --persistent
, it should also be able to exit in similar circumstances without --persistent
. Isn't that what you experience? If not we need to investigate that...
To me it looks as we have several different scenarios happening here:
@DimitriPapadopoulos We have the persistent because of the 8 hour max forced by the Fortinet. If we don't use it when the connection is forced closed by the Fortinet the process doesn't actually stop so systemd does not restart it.
@mrbaseman Traffic for one tunnel is not routed over another as the routes that we get are for specific routes behind the fortinet and not 0.0.0.0.
I will run OpenForti in a screen session with --persistent and log it with tee and see what happens after a period of time.
EDIT1: It's leaking without systemd. Looking at the output I see: WARN: You should not pass the password on the command line. Type it interactively or use a config file instead.

There are no timestamps so I can't say for sure but it seems the leak is happening after the log out.
Concerning the need for --persistent
:
I don't know if it is possible to natively detect the FortiGate time out (8 hours) on the client side - without actively monitoring the connection using pings for example. It would be nice to get openfortivpn to exit - I cannot recall if FortiClient exits in that case. But wait... openfortivpn is able to detect the connection closes since it restarts the loop. Not sure why openfortivpn would restart the loop with --persistent
but not exit without --persistent
. Are you certain that openfortivpn does not exit and that it is not a systemd configuration issue?
If you have a look at the loop, clearly if the loop restarts with --persistent
, then without --persistent
openfortivpn should exit:
do {
if (run_tunnel(&cfg) != 0)
ret = EXIT_FAILURE;
else
ret = EXIT_SUCCESS;
if ((cfg.persistent > 0) && (get_sig_received() == 0))
sleep(cfg.persistent);
} while ((get_sig_received() == 0) && (cfg.persistent != 0));
@DimitriPapadopoulos I am checking now. From the logs without --persistent the process seems to exit with. DEBUG: Error reading from SSL connection (Protocol violation with EOF).

INFO: Logged out.
Is that expected behavior? It seems this happens every 6 minutes.
When using systemd WITHOUT persistent it seems to exit correctly and restart. (I am not sure why I didn't see this in the past). I can simply use systemd without persistent. My concern is two fold: 1) For others that don't have redundant links. 2) systemd can take 1-3 seconds to restart. If one IP is offline we lose connectivity. 3) We have three connections. Two that are fiber and one cellular as backup. When the thread running to the cellular connection restart all traffic goes through it, increasing latency.
Oh, I'm not saying you shouldn't use --persistent
, of course you can. Just wanted to make sure openfortivpn exits gracefully when the FortiGate appliance closes the connection - hence --persistent
is not an absolute necessity.
If I understand you correctly, you experience openfortivpn exiting after 6 minutes without --persistent
and apparently cycling a new loop every 6 minutes with --persistent
. Is that correct? That is of course not expected. I am not as familiar with openfortivpn and FortiGate devices as @mrbaseman but I couldn't help noticing these dates that look suspect to me:
Set-Cookie: SVPNCOOKIE=; path=/; expires=Sun, 11 Mar 1984 12:00:00 GMT; secure; httponly;
Set-Cookie: SVPNNETWORKCOOKIE=; path=/remote/network; expires=Sun, 11 Mar 1984 12:00:00 GMT; secure; httponly
<script>function fgt_clear_cookies() {var cookies = document.cookie.split(';');var domain = document.domain.split('.');var new_date='; expires=Thu, 21 Sep 1979 00:00:01 UTC';
Can you run date
on your system? And the equivalent command on the FortiGate appliance?
Finally about the memory/socket leak itself, chances are it is in pppd and probably not considered a problem there since it happens when exiting. And it's true that in a "normal" use case it wouldn't be much of a problem, except here we restart pppd every 6 minutes. I don't mean to say the leak should not be fixed. It's just that:
the dates look indeed suspicious. First I thought it's invalidation of a cookie previously set, but for that the time stamp should be "Epoch 0" i.e. 1970, not 1979 or 1984
The idea of the --persistent
option is to reopen the connection if possible, i.e. no interaction such as OTP is necessary, each time the remote side closes it. If systemd is also watching the process and restarting it, the two mechanisms are competing. From what I understand now:
--persistent
option openfortivpn runs in a loop and restarts pppd every 6 minutes and the socket leak/memory leak becomes a problem after some time--persistent
option openfortivpn exits cleanly and systemd restarts it every 6 minutes and the leak does not appear, right? That could be a problem with the threads that openfortivpn uses to communicate with pppd. Maybe the cleanup at the end of the io_loop does not work properly, but everything gets cleaned up by the OS when the whole process exits.
Sorry for the sporadic responses. 1) Both the time on the server and the Fortient are correct and are current. 2) Using systemd without persistent seems to be working. It seems openfortinet dies, systemd detects it and starts up again. I don't like that we keep re-connecting in case of an issue but it's not the end of the world. I have not figured out how to get systemd to prefix the logs with the pid. Because we have three tunnels looking at the logs does not help as when I see a restart I don't know which connection it's for. Over all it does seem to die about every 5 minutes. 3) When using openfortivpn with persistent then it seems to loop and have that memory leak.
I am OK with how I have it but if there is a bug somewhere (and it seems like there is) I want to try to help solve the issue.
Forking this repos to investiguate this issue. I suspect something with thread management in io.c
I have found only false positives yet, and a possible problem related to this issue #540.
My test cases are: A. 2 users, 1 gateway B. 2 users, 2 gateways (1-1) C. 1 user, 2 gateways (1-2)
My current build flags are:
make CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fpie -FPIE -fsanitize=thread -fstack-protector-all -pthread -Wall -O2 -ggdb3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer" \ CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -fpie -FPIE -fsanitize=thread -fstack-protector-all -pthread -Wall -O2 -ggdb3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer"
1. Added return value verification for pthread_ calls in io.c.
You get the expected error messages when one thread decide to quit (it is not cancellable anymore by the main thread, but can be properly joined). At least it shows now in debug mode, I suggest to keep these tests for now.
You can try it by simulating a network issue with route add -host ip_of_your_vpn_srv reject
and watch openfortivpn -v -v ...

Hi @dovi5988
thanks for this detailed analysis. I'm not so deeply in the topic of threads and mutexes, but I can shortly comment on your last points:
The results with valrind: Some of the findings seem to be inside of Openssl. Maybe we use the library in a wrong manner and more measures are needed to use it cleanly in conjunction with pthreads, but maybe it's just a leak in the library. We should have a look at the memory we get back from strdup.
About the connections to different vpns: Well, if you connect to several vpns that uses the same networks, you simply have a collision of the network ranges. You can either remove the routes which are already there or refuse to add new ones for the same network range, or you just try to add them and see what happens. It's an unclear situation after all. Apart from that, there is a split routes mode and a tunnel mode in which all traffic is supposed to be routed through the vpn. If such a tunnel is opened first, and you open another vpn connection, the second one travels (with its own ssl encryption layer) through the first one. If you close the first tunnel, the second one can't reach its gateway on the previously established path anymore. The same applies when both tunnels run in split routes mode but share the same network range. The path to one of the tunnels may fall into a route for a subnet that is pushed by the other one, and, as a rule of thumb, you run into trouble if the connections are not closed in the reverse order as they have been opened.
Hi @dovi5988 ...
@mrbaseman the test cases were conduced with split tunneling, no tunnel in tunnel issues here.
I suggest that openfortivpn should refuse to overload routes put by its own previous instances (just a warning message for now).
About valgrind reports, I agree and they may well be false positive anyway.
My understanding right now is that @dovi5988 is experiencing issues because of the multiple instances/tunnels, that may occur in a very specific scenario.

Hi,
I have one host with multiple sessions out. It seems there is some sort of memory leak. dmesg is showing: [5112108.572250] [ 2381] 1002 2381 5956 37 13 0 0 perl [5112108.577103] Out of memory: Kill process 24130 (openfortivpn) score 295 or sacrifice child [5112108.581677] Killed process 24130 (openfortivpn), UID 0, total-vm:1245576kB, anon-rss:884460kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
How would I go about troubleshooting this? Is there any logs that I can connect to post here to debug further?
