Hello all, I have a "strange" problem with SSL decoding and I don't know how to explain it. I have a test server (apache+ssl) and I access that server with IE 8. Wireshark configured with the corect server SSL key, everything is working fine and I can see the SSL stream decoded. Same scenario, but I use Firefox 14. In this case I cannot see anything being decoded. Does anybody has an explanation for this or a point to start looking for a possible solution? Just to avoid any useless discussions, on both test I start the Wireshark and then the browser so I capture the entire stream with initial SSL handshake. Thanks a lot! asked 24 Aug '12, 06:17  yotis |
One Answer:
Is it that Firefox permits the DH cipher and IE 8 doesn't? SSL decryption requires use of an RSA cipher not a DH one. The client and the server negotiate on the cipher to be used. See the answers to this question answered 24 Aug '12, 06:25  grahamb ♦ |
