Android HttpClient and HTTPS

This should get you started. I’m using basically the same, except with ThreadSafeClientConnManager. SchemeRegistry schemeRegistry = new SchemeRegistry(); schemeRegistry.register(new Scheme(“https”, SSLSocketFactory.getSocketFactory(), 443)); HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams(); SingleClientConnManager mgr = new SingleClientConnManager(params, schemeRegistry); HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(mgr, params);

Replay attacks for HTTPS requests

HTTPS is not replayable, the first server response in the handshake sequence includes a server-chosen random number. What Fiddler does is act as a proxy, meaning it intercepts your browser’s requests, and then generates an identical request to the server, meaning it has access to the plaintext, which is what it will be replaying.

Configuring MAMP for SSL

If you’re using MAMP 3 or 4 the instructions are slightly different. Here’s what worked for me, starting from a fresh install of MAMP 3.0.5 on Mavericks without Pro. Update: Still works on Yosemite after fixing Apache as described in this answer. Further Update: Comments suggest this still works at least through MAMP 5.4. Generate … Read more

What’s the de facto standard for a Reverse Proxy to tell the backend SSL is used?

The proxy can add extra (or overwrite) headers to requests it receives and passes through to the back-end. These can be used to communicate information to the back-end. So far I’ve seen a couple used for forcing the use of https in URL scheme: X-Forwarded-Protocol: https X-Forwarded-Ssl: on X-Url-Scheme: https And wikipedia also mentions: # … Read more

GitHub – HTTPS access

As you did saw yourself in GitHub support, Scott Schacon himself suggested: So I guess your .netrc is incorrect or something? Try removing the info from your .netrc and cloning first (since it’s a public repo). If it isn’t a GitHub server issue, it could be your firewall. And/or your proxy (git config –global http.proxy … Read more

HTTP Cookies and Ajax requests over HTTPS

Ok, found the solution to the cookie problem. See XHR specs, jQuery docs and StackOverflow. The solution to have the cookies sent when switching protocol and/or subdomain is to set the withCredentials property to true. E.g. (using jQuery) $.ajax( { /* Setup the call */ xhrFields: { withCredentials: true } });

how to use async await with https post request

Basically, you can write a function which will return a Promise and then you can use async/await with that function. Please see below: const https = require(‘https’) const data = JSON.stringify({ todo: ‘Buy the milk’ }); const options = { hostname: ‘flaviocopes.com’, port: 443, path: ‘/todos’, method: ‘POST’, headers: { ‘Content-Type’: ‘application/json’, ‘Content-Length’: data.length }, … Read more

Error “You’re accessing the development server over HTTPS, but it only supports HTTP”

I think you should create different settings.py ( base_settings.py, local_settings.py, production_settings.py). And in your settings.py do something like this: import socket if socket.gethostname()==”Raouf-PC”: from local_settings import * Change ‘Raouf-PC’ to the hostname of your PC. P:S: I’m using Windows 10. After doing that place the below data in your production_settings.py and save. Then clear your … Read more
