Re: using splice just to improve TLS SNI logging

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

 



It’s been a far superior client experience to bumping on the deployments I’ve seen. Obviously MITM-ing a connection is always going to be a less amenable situation for clients; technically and ethically.

The only problem I’ve had with splicing is this Host Header Forgery error squid has when it resolves a different IP for an HTTPS host than the client does. It’s pretty well minimised by making sure the client and squid box are using the same DNS server, but I still have the occasional timeouts on github.com and missing images/media on twitter.com because of it.
