i was inspecting a HTTPS site and i found the certificate packet and i found this key in it Cipher Suite: TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xc02b) is this what i need to decrypt the traffic ?? i hope if someone could tell me what to do next in a more practical way asked 20 Mar '16, 16:42 Mostafa Nafady edited 20 Mar '16, 16:51 |
One Answer:
The Certificate packet contains the public key which cannot be used to decrypt traffic. The mentioned cipher suite uses the Diffie-Hellman algorithm for key exchange which cannot be decrypted anyway using a RSA private key. If you are interested in browser traffic, have a look at using the SSL keylog method described at https://wiki.wireshark.org/SSL#SSL_dissection_in_Wireshark. answered 21 Mar '16, 03:07 Lekensteyn |
Thanks A lot for clarifying this for me
