ssldump - (de-facto repository gathering patches around the cyberspace)

• Current version of ssldump is v1.1 (released: 2019-12-28) - 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.

original and (old) README

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”. Additional back-end code available is in the crl-monitor repository.
