TLSAssistant v3.1 is the latest version of TLSAssistant, a modular state-of-the-art TLS analyzer, extensible with new features and thus capable of streamlining the mitigation process of known and newly discovered TLS attacks even for non-expert users. The companion page, containing additional details can be foundhere.
The latest release introduces a redesigned PDF report, a novel module able to perform compliance analyses against five agency-issued technical guidelines:
- AgIDver.2020-01
- ANSSIv1.2
- BSITR-02102-2 andTR-03116-4
- Mozillav5.7
- NISTSP 800-52 Rev. 2 (and related)
and the integration of a new state-of-the-art static and extensible app security testing tool calledSEBASTiAn. Its presence enhanced existing Android analyses and introduces the possiblity to analyze iOS applications.

Compliance analysis
TLSAssistant is able to perform an automated compliance analysis against fivefive agency-issued technical guidelines:
- AgIDver.2020-01
- ANSSIv1.2
- BSITR-02102-2 andTR-03116-4
- Mozillav5.7
- NISTSP 800-52 Rev. 2 (and related)
It supports the following use-cases:
- compare-to-one - compare an already existing configuration against a single guideline. The output consists of a report that highlights the differences between the current and the target configuration and guides the system administrator towards closing the gap;
- compare-to-many - similar to thecompare-to-one but considering multiple guidelines;
- generate-after-one - generate a working configuration compliant with a single guideline, taking into account any additional narrowing set by the user;
- generate-after-many - similar to thegenerate-after-one but considering multiple guidelines.
Tip
We suggest to download the pre-built Docker provided by GitHub by fetching it with.
docker pull ghcr.io/stfbk/tlsassistant:v3.1
and running it with
docker run --rm -v${PWD}/results:/tlsassistant/results -t ghcr.io/stfbk/tlsassistant:v3.1 -s www.fbk.eu
However, if you want to install the dependencies on the system, you can use the following building methods:
To install the tool (in a virtual environment), execute the following command:
sudo apt update&& sudo apt install git python3-dev python3-pip python3-venv -y&& git clone https://github.com/stfbk/tlsassistant.git&&cd tlsassistant&& python3 -m venv venv&&source venv/bin/activate&& pip3 install -r requirements.txt&& python3 install.py -v
If you want to download and install by executing every step:
Show single steps
- Install git
sudo apt update&& sudo apt-get install git -y
- Download the tool by running
git clone https://github.com/stfbk/tlsassistant.git&&cd tlsassistant
- Install python
sudo apt update&& sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-pip python3-venv -y
- Optional but recommended: Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv
and activate the virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate
- Install the requirements
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- Run the installer
python3 install.py
Recommended for non-Ubuntu users:
Since it does use APT and install dependencies, we can use the Dockerfile to build the image and contain the installation process.
Docker build and run tutorial
clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/stfbk/tlsassistant.git&&cd tlsassistant
Build the docker image:
docker build -t tlsassistant.
Run the docker image:
docker run --rm -v${PWD}/results:/tlsassistant/results -t tlsassistant -s www.fbk.eu
add all theargs
that we want to pass after thetlsassistant
keyword.
We can use the-v
flag to mount directories with the TLS configuration files.
docker run --rm -v${PWD}/results:/tlsassistant/results -v${PWD}/configurations_to_mount:/tlsassistant/config_mounted -t tlsassistant -f config_mounted/apache.conf
python3 run.py -h

Show advanced examples
- Perform aserver analysis
python3 run.py -s fbk.eu
If no configuration or module list provided,default_server.json
is loaded.
- Perform aconfiguration file analysis
Here we specify the openssl version of the system which runs the web server.
python3 run.py -f my_apache_conf.conf --openssl 1.1.1
We can alsoignore the openssl version, assuming the weakest version:
python3 run.py -f my_apache_conf.conf --ignore-openssl
- Perform aTLS configuration file analysis andapply fixes
By default, the configuration analyzed is changed in place.
python3 run.py -f my_apache_conf.conf --apply-fix
We can specify anoutput path of the fixed configuration:
python3 run.py -f my_apache_conf.conf --apply-fix my_output_conf.conf
- Perform an analysis byselecting modules
python3 run.py -s fbk.eu -m breach crime freak poodle hsts_preloading
Or by selecting aTLSAssistant configuration file:
python3 run.py -s fbk.eu -c default_server.json
We can alsoexclude some modules without editing the configuration file:
python3 run.py -s fbk.eu -c default_server.json -e hsts_preloading
get thefull module list with:
python3 run.py -l
- Perform an analysis withsubdomain enumeration
python3 run.py -s*.fbk.eu
- Perform an analysis on a.apk/.ipa file
python3 run.py -a my_app[.apk/.ipa]
If no configuration or module list provided,default_android.json
is loaded.
- Analyzeall domains in a file (one per line, including subdomains enumeration)
Assuming the filedomains_list.log
looks like this:
music.amazon.itfacebook.com*.fbk.eu
we execute:
python3 run.py -d domains_list.log
- Check thecompliance of an existing deployment against AgID TLS guidelines
python3 run.py -m compare_one --guidelines agid -s www.example.com --ignore-openssl
- Generate a new configuration, alreadycompliant with NIST guidelines
python3 run.py -m generate_one --guidelines nist --output_conf compliant_config.conf --openssl-version 3.0.2 -s placeholder

The various types of analysis that can (currently) be performed are:
Since most of the vulnerabilities analyzed by the tool are covered by testssl.sh tool, we decided to make the analysis more efficient by performing a pre-analysis to populate a cache with its result. These will be used by the corresponding testssl.sh modules such as POODLE (an attack that exploits the availability of SSLv3 to downgrade the strength of the connection), during current and future analysis. Thus, in Step 3a the arguments of each individual module related to testssl.sh are obtained. These arguments will be provided to the method in order to perform the testssl.sh pre-analysis and populate the cache with the results. Once this is done, the individual modules are executed (Step 3b) and mitigations added if vulnerable.
Each Android-related module, such as Unsecure TrustManager (which evaluates if a custom implementation may be exploited to break certificate validation), runs the analysis (Step 3b) on the provided APK.
We perform a Single Host analysis on each one of the domains specified in an input list. Each result is concatenated and provided to the Output module as a single output.
If a configuration file is provided, a WhiteBox analysis is performed by loading the TLS configuration into memory and performing a complete check of all available modules (Step 3b). Otherwise, if a configuration file is provided along with a valid hostname, a singlehost analysis is performed and then the fixes are integrated in the provided TLS configuration. We refer to this analysis as Hybrid: we perform a BlackBox analysis on the hostname and then we apply the fixes on the configuration file.
