Re: HTTPS proxy tool that resigns SSL certs

One2,

what do you mean with "reassign"? If you mean you want to use the original certificate or another "trusted" certificate, you should first understand how certficates work. To "reassign" you would have to have access to the private key of the original certificate (or access to a CA accepted by most browser to generate your very own certificate..).

Maybe this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography) is a tiny lectrue to start at.

Cheers,

Toby

Hi,
Does anyone know of an HTTPS proxy tool that will let you resign SSL certificates when doing a MITM attack?

Thanks,
