NAME

sslsniff - Print data passed to OpenSSL, GnuTLS or NSS. Uses Linux eBPF/bcc.

SYNOPSIS

sslsniff [-h] [-p PID] [-c COMM] [-o] [-g] [-n] [-d] [--hexdump]

DESCRIPTION

sslsniff prints data sent to write/send and read/recv functions of OpenSSL, GnuTLS and NSS, allowing us to read plain text content before encryption (when writing) and after decryption (when reading).

This works reading the second parameter of both functions (*buf).

Since this uses BPF, only the root user can use this tool.

REQUIREMENTS

CONFIG_BPF and bcc.

EXAMPLES

Print all calls to SSL write/send and read/recv system-wide:: # sslsniff

FIELDS

FUNC: Which function is being called (write/send or read/recv)
TIME: Time of the command, in seconds.
COMM: Entered command.
PID: Process ID calling SSL.
LEN: Bytes written or read by SSL functions.
