javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Connection reset

steve | Last updated: Jul 17, 2016 04:39AM UTC

Hi I am getting Connection Reset in one HTTPS enabled site that I am testing. In the Burpsuite alert tab, I am seeing -Attempting to auto-select SSL parameters for site - Failed to auto-select SSL parameters for site - javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Connection reset - Connection reset I have loaded the Burpsuite CA, and I am on Java version "1.8.0_92" Any experts could share their views? Thanks!

We would suggest the following: - Connect directly to this site using your browser, note the SSL protocol and cipher that are used, and configure Burp to use only those (and turn off auto-selection). - Try changing each of the checkbox options relating to SSL negotiation in both user and project options (some require a restart). - Try a different installation of Java (6/7/8 and Oracle/OpenJDK) since many quirks in Java's SSL implementation are version-specific.
