We use Azure Service Bus and Azure Web App which fills queue. They are in the same resource group. We use WindowsAzure.ServiceBus v2.6.5.
We get this error very rarely:
The X.509 certificate CN=servicebus.windows.net is not in the trusted people store. The X.509 certificate CN=servicebus.windows.net chain building failed. The certificate that was used has a trust chain that cannot be verified. Replace the certificate or change the certificateValidationMode. A certificate chain could not be built to a trusted root authority.
Question: Is this internal error on Azure ? If it's not, what can we do to not get this error ?
I managed to find our more information about this issue. First of all,
what needs to be established is that this is a pure client issue, this
is why there are no tracking IDs. The client refuses to complete the
TLS handshake with Service Bus.
This is a known issue this is a known issue with the way how Microsoft
manages certificates and how they are used on non-HTTP(S) transports.
The errors occur when the endpoint that hosts the intermediate
certificates for Microsoft is unavailable or slow or cannot be reached
by the client for any reason. We are investigating a workaround for
injecting the required extra certificate into the TLS handshake for
the SBMP and AMQP transports similar to how this is done by HTTP.SYS,
so that this extra request is not needed.
The immediate workaround available is to enable
ServiceBusEnvironment.SystemConnectivity.Mode = ConnectivityMode.Https
This will force all traffic to use a WebSockets tunnel that is
protected by a prior TLS/HTTPS handshake, and that handshake carries
the required intermediate certificate. The WebSockets handshake does
impose a little extra latency as the connection is established, but
will otherwise be comparable with the regular communication mode. The
messaging protocol used through that tunnel will still be AMQP or
NetMessaging, so you should not be worried to get HTTP characteristics
when choosing this option.
This is the response from Microsoft. I'll apply this and if I don't face any problem at some period time, I will accept this as an answer. Who faces this problem, they can try this also.
Edit:
ConnectivityMode.Https is just in avaliable service bus 3. I have to use servicebus 2 because of issue on Signalr. Therefore I couldn't apply this solution.
I believe there must be a missing certificate.

I have an App Service that's protected by a TLS certificate. It worked fine with small payloads, however, it started failing with larger payloads.
According to an article, I enabled certificate negotiation for my API Management Service:
https://notetoself.tech/2019/06/13/api-call-with-client-certificate-policy-failing-to-execute-due-to-message-size-on-azure-api-management/
However, it still randomly fails with certificate negotiation error, as seen below:
Important - I do not want to use client authentication between browser <-> API management. I'm using it only between API management <-> App Service.
I could not find any information on this substatus 72 code. What does it mean and can it be fixed? Is Azure client certificate authentication broken and won't work with large payloads?
The Negotiate Client Certificate checkbox will not help here as this is for the mutual auth between the client and your apim service where your problem is between apim and app service. Your app service should force apim to exchange the client certificate during the initial SSL handshake rather than waiting until it is needed.
This problem is not related specifically to azure, see this
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/networking-blog/https-client-certificate-request-freezes-when-the-server-is/ba-p/339672
The issue description to me or at least to how I understood it does not match with the error code as the 17 substatus code means that the client certificate has expired or is not yet valid.

On this page: https://developers.docusign.com/esign-rest-api/code-examples/webhook-status, the last section is called: There’s more. And there you can read that there are 3 ways to check that DocuSign is making the web hook request:
you can check the SSL/TSL certificate of the webhook caller (DocuSign).
set DocuSign to digitally sign the data
DocuSign publishes the IP address ranges
If we examine all these options we have:
This is false, you can't check the SSL certificate of who is making the request to you. SSL certs are designed to be used by clients connecting to servers to check that there is no man in the middle attack. And only the client can verify the cert of a server, not the other way around.
I can't find on the page any mention how to set the signature, and most importantly, how to check it.
The link provided to the Public IPs: https://trust.docusign.com/en-us/trust-certifications/ip-ranges/, does not work.
My questions are:
Where can I find some documentation about the signature process?
Where is the page with the public IPs?
The best way to do that is to create an HMAC key and use that to confirm that the calls are authentic.
Here is a full article on how to do that - https://developers.docusign.com/esign-rest-api/guides/connect-hmac
Thank you for reporting the out of date documentation. I've filed an internal bug report, DEVDOCS-1565, to have it updated.
As Inbar says in his answer, these days, the best solution is HMAC. You can also combine it with Basic Authentication if you're using DocuSign webhooks at the account level.
HMAC gives you the guarantees that the message did originate from DocuSign and that the message was not altered in transmission.
Don't set up a server on the Internet
The old way of receiving webhook messages was to set up a server that is accessible on the public internet. Due to the costs and Information Security issues creating and maintaining a service on the Internet, these days I suggest that you skip it.
Instead, use a cloud PAAS (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, etc etc) to receive and queue the messages. Then, from behind your firewall, you can dequeue and process them. (With no changes to your firewall.)
See the Connect- series of code examples.
Mutual TLS for checking the client's certificate
Note that you can check the certificate of a client. This feature of the TLS (ne SSL) protocol is called Mutual TLS and is supported by DocuSign webhooks.
But HMAC is better since it also guarantees message integrity.
I am getting error (Could not establish secure channel for SSL/TLS with authority 'www.docusign.net'.) when we are calling login web method of this web service (i.e. https://www.docusign.net/api/3.0/credential.asmx)
There's a few things this could be. I'd recommend checking the following first:
TLS 1.0 is not supported - you'll need to confirm your application is using TLS 1.1 or 1.2
Your application may not trust the DocuSign certificate chain. From the DocuSign Trust Site's Certificate list, the DigiCert root CA (969 bytes): Root CA for Demo/NA1/NA2/NA3/EU SSL certificates must be accepted.
Networking issues: Your firewall may be altering or blocking the connection to DocuSign. Can you make a successful SOAP Ping?
I was facing the same problem.
You just need to paste this code on the top of that code that was throwing this exception.
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = (SecurityProtocolType)3072;
And don't forget to add the namespace
using System.Net;
I have a cloud service and an Azure APIM instance with a self signed client cert setup on them (the cert has intended purposes of server auth and client auth).
Each API within the APIM has the client cert setup on its security. However, when I perform the call the following comes back in the trace.
"messages":["Error occured while calling backend service.","The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.","The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure."
Is there anything I am missing here, searching online and cannot see anything obvious.
Yes you are correct, the option is not available in the portal to allow self-signed certificates. Here is a blogpost by Sasha Rosenbaum: http://divineops.net/enable-self-signed-certificates-in-azure-api-management-services/
Here basically you are skipping the certificate verification using "skipCertificateChainValidation" attribute.
You can create a backend entity through power shell scripts to skipcertifioc
Does the SSL protocol require a challenge to check whether the subjected machine has access to its private key?
I recommend reading the paper A first few milliseconds of an HTTPS connection. It describes the handshake quite well. You can also fire up wireshark and follow along.
Only in 2 way authentication. Take a peek at this image for the "standard" SSL handshaking and note the lack of a client private key (none is needed). In the 2 way authentication handshake the client must prove it's identity in the same way the server does as per that diagram.
In general the client doesn't need a private key since symmetric keys are created after the servers identity is verified.
