Coming soon.
- <p class="question">I'm pentesting an non-browser app that checks SSL
- certificate validity. How do I make it trust the MITMProxy certificate?</p>
-
-
- <p> Here's a quick and easy procedure you can use for Windows 7, as long as
- the app in question uses the global Windows certificate repository. </p>
-
- <ul>
-
- <li> First copy the file <b>libmproxy/resources/bogus_template</b>
- from the MITMProxy source, and edit it to include your target domain in
- the CN parameter. The result should look like this:
-
-<pre>[ req ]
-prompt = no
-distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name
-
-[ req_distinguished_name ]
-C = NZ
-ST = none
-L = none
-O = none
-OU = none
-CN = target.domain.com
-emailAddress = none</pre>
- </li>
-
- <li> Next, use your bogus template to generate a certificate, and
- install it for MITMPRoxy to use:
-
-<pre>openssl req -config ./my_bogus_template -x509 -nodes -days 9999 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout mycert -out mycert
-
-cp mycert ~/.mitmproxy/cert.pem</pre>
- </li>
-
- <li> Fire up MITMProxy, and configure Firefox on the Windows box to use
- it. Browse to the target domain, and you should see a big warning about
- an untrusted certificate. Use Firefox to export the certificate ("Add
- Exception", "Get Certificate", then "View", tab to "Details" and click
- "Export"). </li>
-
- <li> From the command console, fire up <b>certmgr</b>. Select "Trusted
- Root Certification Authorities", then on the top menu, "Action", "All
- Tasks", and "Import". When prompted, select the certificate file you've
- just saved from Firefox.</li>
-
- <li> And that's it - your certificate should now be trusted for that
- domain. Happy pentesting.</li>
-
- </ul>
