Until the content is finalized the plan is to keep it in MD format.
For medium terms it is something which needs to be reconsidered
as markdown as the source format for documentation has too many limits.
Happy for suggestions here.
In the meantime here's what needs to be done:
* finalizing (see comments)
* proofreading 1: accuracy, logic, more content related
* proofreading 2: grammar, spelling
* more? pls let me know
As reported in #782, some servers will return a ServerHello with a cipher not listed in the ClientHello rather than than return an Alert, if the server does not support any of the ciphers listed in the ClientHello.
This commit modifies `tls_sockets()` to check whether the cipher in the ServerHello was one included in the ClientHello and to fail if it wasn't.
This is the simplest direct socket implementation of the MySQL STARTTLS
protocol.
This is a binary protocol, so it requires a new stream based send
(instead of the current line based send).
In `run_hpkp()` there is a call to `$OPENSSL s_client` that uses `${sni[i]}` as one of the command line options, but `sni` is not defined. My guess is that this was a copy/paste error from `run_client_simulation()`, which is the only function where an `sni` array is defined.
I am guessing that the intention was to use `$SNI` in `run_hpkp()`.
openssl/master branch now supports mysql STARTTLS in s_client
This patch adds support to call and use that s_client support to run
most, but not all (pfs, client simulation) tests.
The socket implementation is stubbed, but not yet functional.
testssl.sh is taking an educated guess which port makes sense to scan,
which one not and for which one to use which starttls handshake upfront.
This minimizes needless sscans and error messages.
Parallel mass testing mode is now not anymore experimental. To
use it a separate flag ``--mode=parallel`` was introduced. Serial
is still the default for now to avoid unexpected conditions.
Both the mode arguement and the default is subject to change.
The parallel mass testing mode can now also make use of a
nmap file. Also the functional test for nmap file was put
into a separate function and made more user safe. Open point is
that we better should use the hostname if the forward DNS record matches.
Fixed logical inconsistency: Ticketbleed was not being tested against a server with client authentication
Some variables in the beginning reordered
timeout: the TLS ticket check has a timeout, so that early on non-reachable hosts
are determined. If it is running into the timeout, it quits early. The
timeout is configurable via environment e.g. TIMEOUT=16 ./ticketbleed.bash <host>
Also other ports are allowed albeit it probably it is of limited use
Supplying no arg is now more user-friendly
