RE: TLS Renegotiation Vulnerability: Proof of Concept Code (Python)

I created a Camtasia Movie some time ago "exploiting" the vulnerability
by injecting "/user/profile/E1/" into the first ssl request to "/" 

http://www.hacking-lab.com/download/

This can help others to understand the vulnerability.

Also, can you change this:

"Transport Layer Security (TLS) Renegotiation Indication Extension, IETF
draft standard that addresses the vulnerability."

To:

"Transport Layer Security (TLS) Renegotiation Indication Extension, IETF
TLS
Working Group draft that addresses the vulnerability."

Where "IETF TLS Working Group" is hyperlinked to
http://www.ietf.org/dyn/wg/charter/tls-charter.html

That would help people who do not have a clue who the IETF or the TLS WG
or
that both are open standards forums.

Thanks,

Barry

Subject: TLS Renegotiation Vulnerability: Proof of Concept Code
(Python)

Information about a vulnerability in the TLS protocol was published in
the
beginning of November 2009. Attackers can take advantage of that
vulnerability
to inject arbitrary prefixes into a network connection protected by
TLS. This
can result in severe vulnerabilities, depending on the application
layer
protocol used over TLS.

RedTeam Pentesting used the Python module "TLS Lite" to develop proof
of concept
code that exploits this vulnerability. It is published at

http://www.redteam-pentesting.de/publications/tls-renegotiation

to raise awareness for the vulnerability and its potential impact.
Furthermore,
it shall give interested persons the opportunity to analyse
applications
employing TLS for further vulnerabilities.
