The SSL-bump bypass code on intercepted HTTPS traffic generates a fake CONNECT request from the original destination IP:port in an attempt to trigger a TCP tunnel being opened for the un-bumped data to be transferred over.

The current implementation breaks in two situations:

1) when IPv6 traffic is intercepted

The URL field generated does not account for the additional [] requirements involved when IPv6+port are combined.

The resulting fake requests look like:

 CONNECT ::1:443 HTTP/1.1
 Host: ::1

.. .which are both invalid, and will fail to parse. Breaking IPv6 HTTPS interception bypass.


The attached patch resolves this by using Ip::Address::ToURL() function which was created for the purpose of generating URL hostnames from raw- IP + port including the bracketing when required.


2) when a non-443 port is being intercepted

The Host: header generated is missing the port and Squid Host: header validity will reject the outbound

 CONNECT 127.0.0.1:8443 HTTP/1.1
 Host: 127.0.0.1

... this is an invalid request. Squid is currently ignoring the Host header. However Squid tunnel.cc does make use of peering and may relay the fake request Host: to upstream peers where we cannot be so sure what will happen.

The attached patch resolves this issue by re-using the generated IP:port string for both URL and Host: fields, which preserves teh port in Host: regardless of value. This also means there is an unnecessary :443 tagged on for most HTTPS traffic, however the omission of port from the Host: header is only a MAY and this should not cause any issues.
