Re: ICAP and HTTPS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello Paul, Eliezer, Alex,

We (diladele ICAP) have an open bug /feature requests for this:
	https://github.com/ra-at-diladele-com/qlproxy_external/issues/731
	https://github.com/ra-at-diladele-com/qlproxy_external/issues/726

As Alex described most probably we will do the 2b approach - although the work has not started yet.
Hope to be able to have something by the end of this year!

P.S. The http://docs.diladele.com/faq/squid/cannot_connect_to_site_using_https.html describes why the blocked message is not shown in simple words.

Best regards,
Rafael Akchurin
Diladele B.V.

Thanks Alex, Dieter & Eliezer

I've been trying to prevent the CONNECT request being processed by ICAP and the following configuration in Squid 3.5.9 alongside a standard SSL peek and splice config appears to work:

acl CONNECT method CONNECT
http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports

adaptation_access service_req deny CONNECT adaptation_access service_req allow all

Although I haven't tested this thoroughly yet, it appears to allow the initial tunnel creation but allow filtering of subsequent requests within those tunnels. Although I guess this will only work for bumped connections.

Thanks

Paul
