Hi, I'm currently working on a security evaluation on a solution using https based on server and client certificates (stored in the browser). I have found the information I need on most areas, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding info on how easy/hard it would be for a hacker to steal a client certificate. Does anyone know of a good resource for this kind of information? Questions are along the lines of:
What weaknesses exist in the various browsers when it comes to certificates? How easy would it be for a trojan to extract a certificate (with private key) from the various browsers? PS: I have found quite a lot of information on other exploits like the bug in IE that validates fake certificate as OK. Right now I'm just interested in the possibility of stealing a certificate with private key from various browsers. Thanks in advance! Christian Rygg
