It turns out that, for probably a long time, we have reported an
incorrect version when parsing an SSLv2 client hello. We always reported
this as SSLv2, no matter which version the client hello actually
contained.
This bug probably went unnoticed for a long time, as SSLv2 is
essentially unused nowadays, and as this field does not show up in the
default logs.
This was found due to a baseline difference when writing the Spicy SSL
analyzer.
It turns out that the ssl_history field never was populated with C/S for
SSLv2 connections, or connections using the SSLv2 handshake. In our
testcases, the latter is especially common - with connections up to TLS1
using the old SSLv2 client hello for backwards compatibility.
This change resolves this issue. As the history is not by default
enabled in a lot of locations, baseline impact is minor.
ssl-log-ext had a bug that caused data present in the SSL connection to
not be logged in some cases. Specifically, the script relied on the base
ssl script to initialize some data structures; however, this means that
protocol messages that arrive before a message is handled by the base
ssl script are not logged.
This commit changes the ssl-log-ext script to also initialize the data
structures; now messages are correctly included in the log in all cases.
This policy script significantly extends the details that are logged
about SSL/TLS handshakes.
I am a bit tempted to just make this part of the default log - but it
does add a bunch logging overhead for each connection.
