All,
A while back I started an implementation of TLS 1.2. Rob
Withers joined the effort a few weeks ago and is has made terrific progress. He
reorganized everything, added a proper protocol stack, and now has the
certificates working.
Our version now works with SSL3.0 and TLS 1.1, and DH or RSA
using x509v3 Certificates. There are still a number of things that need
to be done but we can now use squeak to connect as an SSL server and/or client.
See the examples in the workspace that opens when you load the code. You
will find our implementation at www.squeaksource.com/Cryptography.
There are two Monticello Configuration files available to make loading easier. Load
Cryptography-Configuration.mcm, and then Crypt-Xtra-Config.mcm.
We could use some help with testing, code review,
documentation or any other help you would like to offer.
There is also support for MS CryptoAPI and CertificateStores
for Microsoft in the MSCert package. In the future I will be working on
integrating this functionality. I will also be adding support for KomHttp
which is mostly completed but needs to be updated to support Rob’s new
version.
We hope you find this useful and will keep us updated on
your use and issues with our implementation. If you have any questions
please let us know. Also again we would like to invite anyone with
interest or experience with cryptography to join our Cryptography Team at http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
.
Thanks and enjoy,
