SRPM URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/sslstrip-0.7-1.fc12.src.rpm

Description: 
Tool that provides a demonstration of HTTPS stripping attacks that were 
presented at Black Hat DC 2009 by Moxie Marlinspike. It will transparently 
hijack HTTP traffic on a network, watch for HTTPS links and redirects, then map 
those links into either look-alike HTTP links or homograph-similar HTTPS links.
It also supports modes for supplying a favicon which looks like a lock icon, 
selective logging, and session denial

sslstrip.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US favicon -> falcon, faction, favorite

sslstrip.src: W: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %install

=> cosmetic, please fix before importing the package in CVS
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 5 warnings.

binary RPM:
sslstrip.noarch: W: summary-not-capitalized C tool that provides a demonstration of HTTPS stripping attacks
=> will get fixed once the first warning above is fixed
sslstrip.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US Marlinspike -> Marlin spike, Marlin-spike, Marlinespike

     SHA1SUM of source file: 7219328b4d43d96b7a0d629355fd818310d61c9b  sslstrip-0.7.tar.gz
 [x] Package is not known to require ExcludeArch
 [!] All build dependencies are listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines.

 [x] Package functions as described.
 [-] Scriptlets must be sane, if used.
 [-] The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files is correct.
 [-] File based requires are sane.
 [x] %check is present and the test passes.

=== OPTIONAL ITEMS ===
 [x] Buildroot is correct (%{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n))
 [x] Package has a %clean section, which contains rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT.

=== Issues ===
1. BR python-devel is not needed, just python is enough
2. a small need of cosmetics is needed in %Summary (s/tool/Tool) and the BuildArch line ( you've used tabs everywhere but before "noarch")
3. python-twisted-web is a runtime require, not BR
4. Docs are included twice:
/usr/share/doc/sslstrip-0.7
/usr/share/doc/sslstrip-0.7/COPYING
/usr/share/doc/sslstrip-0.7/README
/usr/share/sslstrip/COPYING
/usr/share/sslstrip/README

=== Notes ===
1. if you take care of .egg-info, the package builds just fine in EPEL-5 (see http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2330964).
2. please inform the upstream author that version 0.7 of sslstrip prints a wrong version at startup time:
   [root@wolfy ~]# sslstrip -l 1001
   /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/twisted/internet/_sslverify.py:5:  DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import itertools, md5

   sslstrip 0.6 by Moxie Marlinspike running...

Sorry for the huge delay, wrong mail config on my side made tons of messages pass by unseen.


Adam, since sslstrip-0.9 is available for 2 weeks and http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3102819 shows that the package from comment#2 fails to build, if I promise to take care of the review [much] faster this time, can you please update the package to the current version and provide a new link here ?

Comment 5 Adam Miller 2011-06-08 03:59:03 UTC
Spec URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/sslstrip.spec
SRPM URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/sslstrip-0.9-1.fc15.src.rpm

Fixed up and updated to latest upstream release.

No worries on the delay, life happens :)

Comment 6 manuel wolfshant 2011-06-08 10:57:22 UTC
The new package builds fine in EPEl6 (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3118749 ) and F15 ( http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3118747 ).
However
- rpmlint complains again about the documentation COPYING and README having the exec bit set
- the package installs fine but...
[wolfy@wolfy ~]$ sslstrip 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/sslstrip", line 27, in <module>
    from twisted.web import http                
ImportError: No module named twisted.web

Apparently you need to add a hardrequire on python-twisted-web ( which in turn will bring in python-twisted-core which provides twisted.internet, which is also required by sslstrip )

Comment 7 Adam Miller 2011-06-10 23:25:08 UTC
Spec URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/sslstrip.spec
SRPM URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/sslstrip-0.9-2.fc15.src.rpm

Fixed up the permissions, that was a complete oversight on my part.

Sorry about the python-twisted-web dep miss, I just got lucky/unlucky and had that already installed on the machine I tested on. Also a major goof, fixed now.

Many thanks for the review!

Comment 8 manuel wolfshant 2011-06-11 00:08:07 UTC
Only remaining word from rpmlint is:

[wolfy@wolfy tmp]$ rpmlint sslstrip*rpm
sslstrip.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US Marlinspike -> Marlin spike, Marlin-spike, Marlinespike
sslstrip.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US favicon -> falcon, faction, favorite
sslstrip.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US Marlinspike -> Marlin spike, Marlin-spike, Marlinespike
sslstrip.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US favicon -> falcon, faction, favorite
2 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 4 warnings.

which is obviously a false alert. Everything seems fine now [*] so the package is APPROVED

[*]
- builds fine in koji
- works as expected
- no regressions compared to previous versions.

PS
1. you'll get bonus points for including this tool in EPEL :)
2. please inform the upstream author that the file DnsCache.py does not include the license info

Comment 9 Adam Miller 2011-06-14 14:24:37 UTC
I'm a big fan of EPEL, bonus points are on the roadmap :D
