# ssldump - (de-facto repository gathering patches around the cyberspace)
![C/C++ CI](https://github.com/adulau/ssldump/workflows/C/C++%20CI/badge.svg)
- Current version of ssldump is v1.1 (released: 2019-12-28) - [ChangeLog](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adulau/ssldump/master/ChangeLog)
This repository is composed of the original SSLDUMP 0.9b3 + a myriad of patches (from Debian and other distributions) + contributions via PR
ssldump is an SSLv3/TLS network protocol analyzer. It identifies TCP
connections on the chosen network interface and attempts to interpret
them as SSLv3/TLS traffic. When it identifies SSLv3/TLS traffic, it
decodes the records and displays them in a textual form to stdout. If
provided with the appropriate keying material, it will also decrypt
the connections and display the application data traffic.

# Why do you maintain this repository?
Because it's a mess. The software maintenance process for old free (unmaintained) software
like ssldump is a complete chaotic process. I do this to ease my pain and this could help
other too (but this is just a collateral damage).
# Where do you use ssldump?
I used it for a relatively small project called Passive SSL. For more information, [Passive SSL Passive Detection and Reconnaissance Techniques, to Find, Track, and Attribute Vulnerable ”Devices”](https://www.first.org/resources/papers/conf2015/first_2015_-_leverett_-_dulaunoy_-_passive_detection_20150604.pdf).
Additional back-end code available is in the [crl-monitor ](https://github.com/adulau/crl-monitor/tree/master/bin/x509) repository.
