X.509-Attacker

licence Build Status

X.509-Attacker is a tool based on ASN.1 Tool for creating arbitrary certificates; including especially invalid and malformed certificates. Since X.509 certificates encode their contents in ASN.1, this tool extends the features of ASN.1 Tool (https://github.com/tls-attacker/ASN.1-Tool) in terms of certificate signing. Also, X.509-Attacker introduces a feature of referencing XML elements in order to avoid redundancies when defining certificates in XML.

Installation

In order to compile and use X.509-Attacker, you need to have Java and Maven installed. On Ubuntu you can install Maven by running:

$ sudo apt-get install maven
