Researcher reproduces lawful TLS interception technique

Hacker News·1w·jerrythegerbil

A security researcher has successfully reconstructed a method for intercepting encrypted TLS traffic through lawful interception capabilities—the kind built into telecom infrastructure for law enforcement. The work demonstrates how these mechanisms, which operate at the network level, can decrypt HTTPS connections without breaking the underlying cryptography, raising questions about the security implications of such backdoors.
