Re: Android has issue with transparent proxy

Hey,

I have seen it in the past.
I remember that some android application violated the HTTP request line protocol which I think is a programmer mistake to understand how the protocol works. Since the Other side responded nicely to the request which was a violation of the RFC and the basic concept of the protocol it might have been designed by the same developer.

It is hard to determine if the android OS is causing it or the software does.
I assume that the OS as linux based kernel would not touch this level.

Since there are couple basic applications on android OS I would have tried to access basic web services such as some static content site using chrome or firefox.
you can use my server as a target: http://www2.ngtech.co.il/

The android "market" or "Google Play" might want to get things in their own way so there might be something in it that will prevent the access throw a proxy to prevent Attacks on the devices. In a case that this the reason I would try to look at a tcpdump on the proxy to understand if there is something that can be seen on the request format or requests sequence.
