I have been trying to inspect all the traffic going through my machine. I have a server directly connected to Internet. And I would like to log all the youtube request made on internet with the URL.
As youtube is based on SSL, so I must need to inspect the HTTPS traffic. I have read it somewhere that I must need to create MITM attack on my own server in order to view the HTTPS request. I have followed following steps in order to create a certificate I own.
1 - Generate a 2048 bit RSA Key: openssl genrsa -des3 -out private.pem
2048
2 - Export the RSA Public Key to a File: openssl rsa -in private.pem
-outform PEM -pubout -out public.pem
3 - Check The public key File (Certificate) Now: less public.pem
4 - Export the RSA Public Key to a File: openssl rsa -in private.pem
-out private_unencrypted.pem -outform PEM -pubout
5 - Check The Private File Now: less private.pem
6 - Copied certificate into certificate directory
7 - Configure certificate by using following command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates
In the end executed all the possible ways available:
mitmproxy -T
Above command open a console application and I accessed all the HTTPs sites but no effect on this window.
And
sudo ssldump -Ad -k cert.pem -p password -i wlo1
This command just printed some handshake stuff in console and after that terminated. But, nothing is related to URL.
And
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --destination-port 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 1024
sudo sslstrip -l 1024
This commands keep on listening but, nothing comes out as a result in sslstrip.log file.
I am using all these things with Ubuntu 15 and want to dump ssl request in transparent mode i.e. without setting up proxy on client's machine.

I would like to generate a public SSH key from an OpenSSL generated Ed25519 private key.
I tried:
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ed25519_key -y > ed25519_ssh.pub
And got the error:
Load key "ed25519_key": invalid format
SSH and SSL are two things.
SSH means "Secure Shell" and is used for remotely connecting to another machine to issue commands, most likely via a CLI (Command Line Interface).
SSL means "Secure Sockets Layer", an older version of actual TLS, used to secure data transmission on a network.
To create SSL keys you can use openssl:
openssl genpkey -algorithm ed25519 -outform PEM -out ed25519_ssl.prv
openssl pkey -in ed25519_ssl.prv -pubout -out ed25519_ssl.pub
I'm trying to get HTTPS work on all subdomains using"Nginx", but receive:
This server could not prove that it is api.wokcraft.com; its security certificate is not trusted by your computer's operating system. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection.
URL: https://api.wokcraft.com/
Can any one inform what missing?
thx
edit: I followed this instructions: https://support.comodo.com/index.php?/Default/Knowledgebase/Article/View/1091/0/certificate-installation--nginx
Nginx doesn't send the correct list of intermediate certificates: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=api.wokcraft.com&latest
Create the correct bundle:
You want to create Comodo Bundle this way (replacing your_cert with actual name of your file):
cat your_cert.crt COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt > your_cert.ca-bundle
Get the new ca-bundle onto your server
Once that is done copy this to your server as in the Nginx set it this way:
ssl_certificate /your/ssl/path/your_cert.ca-bundle;
ssl_certificate_key /your/ssl/path/your_cert_privateKey.key;
Verify the cert and key are matching after they have been copied (compare md5 hashes).
openssl x509 -noout -modulus -in certificate.crt | openssl md5
openssl rsa -noout -modulus -in privateKey.key | openssl md5
Test the config (need to run as sudo):
sudo nginx -t
If no errors, reload nginx and re-run you SSLlabs check:

I have updated my certificate on Gandi like this :
sudo openssl genrsa -des3 -out mywebsite.com_encrypted.key 4096
sudo openssl req -new -key mywebsite.com_encrypted.key -out mywebsite.com.csr
cd /etc/nginx/ssl/
sudo nano mywebsite.com.crt # > pasted the Gandi certificate in this file
sudo wget https://www.gandi.net/static/CAs/GandiStandardSSLCA.pem
sudo cat GandiStandardSSLCA.pem >> mywebsite.com.crt
sudo openssl rsa -in mywebsite.com_encrypted.key -out mywebsite.com.key
sudo chown root:root mywebsite.com.key
sudo chmod 400 mywebsite.com.key
Everything was working good with older certificate but since I updated configuration with new certificate here is is my log on nginx. I can't restart :
Nginx logs :
2015/05/12 20:53:03 [emerg] 7515#0: SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file("/etc/nginx/ssl/mywebsite.com.key") failed (SSL: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch)
What's wrong with process ?
Configuration of nginx is ok.
Here is my nginx configuration :
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mywebsite.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/mywebsite.com.key;
I have no idea what you are trying to achieve. It looks like you replaced the key in /etc/nginx/ssl/mywebsite.com.key, leaving the original certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mywebsite.com.crt unchanged (the mywebsite.com.crt certificate is still bound to the original key - and you cannot change that - public key is an integral part of X509 certificate). This is exactly what openssl is trying to tell you - you are trying to use a certificate with different private key that was originaly created with.
BTW: I also have no idea why you created a certificate request (along with the new key) and then left it unused (without actually using it to create new certificate).
I have a flask application running using a self signed certificate. I'm able to send in a curl request using:
curl -v -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"data":"value1","key":"value2"}' https://<server_ip>:<port>
The verbose logs show that everything went alright.
I wanted to avoid using the -k (--insecure) option and instead specify a .pem file that curl could use. Looking at the curl man page I found that you could do this using the --cert option.
So I created a .pem file using this:
openssl rsa -in server.key -text > private.pem
CURL throws me this error when using the private.pem file:
curl: (58) unable to use client certificate (no key found or wrong pass phrase?)
Any suggestions? - or is this only possible with a properly signed certificate?
Tnx
This is just another version of this question: Using openssl to get the certificate from a server
Or put more bluntly:
Using curl --cert is wrong, it is for client certificates.
First, get the the certs your server is using:
$ echo quit | openssl s_client -showcerts -servername server -connect server:443 > cacert.pem
(-servername is necessary for SNI so that you get the right virtual server's certificate back)
Then make your curl command line use that set to verify the server in subsequent operations:
$ curl --cacert cacert.pem https://server/ [and the rest]
special teaser
Starting with curl 7.88.0 (to be shipped in February 2023), curl can save the certificates itself with the new %{certs} variable for the -w option. Blogged about here.
To make request from https server through curl. I make use of below steps
Step1: Generate self signed certificate with below code at root of the project you want to make use of it.openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -nodes
Step2: Fill the prompt with required details but when you get to Common name input localhost e.g Common Name (eg, fully qualified host name) []:localhost
step3: When your openssl cert.pem & key.pem has being generated startup your server then in another terminal or command line run curl --cacert cert.pem https://localhost:443
Note: I use port 443 which is the default https port, you can make use of another port then make sure cert.pem file path is well referenced.
I recently deployed a Dart server application that serves HTTP requests. I wanted to add support for HTTPS so I have been trying to add SSL to the Dart server application.
This answer gives a clear explanation of how to add a self-signing SSL certificate to Dart. However, I want to add an SSL certificate I bought from an SSL provider.
The SSL provider e-mailed my 4 files:
Root CA Certificate - AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt
Intermediate CA Certificate - COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt
Intermediate CA Certificate - COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt
Your PositiveSSL Certificate - my_domain.crt
I have been trying to figure out how certutil works and how to add these certificates to the certificate database, but I just can't figure it all out.
Anyone with experience enabling a CA SSL certificate in Dart?
SOLVED: Thanks to suggestion in the comments, I solved the issue. This is the gist of my complete setup: https://gist.github.com/stevenroose/e6abde14258971eae982
First of all, you probably have three files generated with openssl for your private key, server certificate and CA certificate. To convert all those into a PKCS12 file, you can use openssl:
openssl pkcs12 -export -out server.p12 -inkey server.key -in server.crt -certfile CAcert.crt
Then, you can adapt the certutil commands as shown to load you PKCS12 instead of generating new certificates:
certutil -N -d sql:certdb
certutil -A -n mycertnick -i server.crt -t "TCu,Cu,Tuw" -d sql:certdb
certutil -A -n myCA -i CAcert.crt -t "TCu,Cu,Tuw" -d sql:certdb
pk12util -i server.p12 -d sql:certdb
It seems to work with the sample code in the referenced question.
Unfortunately the SSL management in Dart is known to be very lacking.
I reported this many times, with no serious answer from the Dart team.
