Attempting to ignore local SSL certificate [duplicate] - perl

I want to access a website where the certificate cannot be verified. I'm using WWW::Mechanize get request. So how would go about ignoring this and continues to connect to the website?

use IO::Socket::SSL qw();
use WWW::Mechanize qw();
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(ssl_opts => {
SSL_verify_mode => IO::Socket::SSL::SSL_VERIFY_NONE,
verify_hostname => 0, # this key is likely going to be removed in future LWP >6.04
});
With IO::Socket::SSL earlier than 1.79, see PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME.

my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new( 'ssl_opts' => { 'verify_hostname' => 0 } );

Perl Mechanize, making a script to login on a webpage

I'm making a script to automatically login on a webpage, it starts with this:
use HTTP::Cookies;
use WWW::Mechanize;
my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies->new;
my $agent = WWW::Mechanize->new( cookie_jar => $cookie_jar );
my $server_endpoint = "http://10.11.5.2/index.php";
$agent->post($server_endpoint,[tg => 'login', referer => 'index.php',login => 'login',sAuthType=>'LOL',nickname=>'admin',password=>'012345678',submit=>'Login']);
print "Set Cookie Jar?\n", $agent->cookie_jar->as_string, "\n";
print $agent->content;
And I get a page saying "you are not logged in"...but when I use the same credentials in the browser everything works.
So I retrieved the value of the cookie sent by the server (located in the set-cookie header of the response) with $agent->cookie_jar->as_string, here it's OV3176019645=3inkmpee0r5gpfm41c3iltvda1.
THen I put it in the POST request before sending it, like the following:
use HTTP::Cookies;
use WWW::Mechanize;
my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies->new;
my $agent = WWW::Mechanize->new( cookie_jar => $cookie_jar );
my $server_endpoint = "http://10.11.5.2/index.php";
$agent->add_header( Cookie => 'OV3176019645=osovm5u0vfc2dmkuo6bqn6hah1' );
$agent->post($server_endpoint,[tg => 'login', referer => 'index.php',login => 'login',sAuthType=>'LOL',nickname=>'admin',password=>'012345678',submit=>'Login']);
print $agent->content;
This time everything works...
So, my question is: how can I automatically get the value of the cookie given by the server before I send my request ?
Another problem also appears, it's that the server sends back a cookie with the following shape (in the set-cookie header):
Set-Cookie3: OV3176019645=3inkmpee0r5gpfm41c3iltvda1; path="/"; domain=10.11.5.2; path_spec; discard; version=0
And I just need the 1st item of this cookie (OV3176019....).
I hope I was clear in my explanations.
Thanks

PERL Get_Server_Certificate certificate verify failed error

I'm receiving a certificate error when trying to send a POST message to a website.
The error I'm receiving:
LWP::Protocol::https::Socket: SSL connect attempt failed error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 49
The code that I'm using is:
my $webpage = "";
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new( );
$ua->agent('Mozilla');
$webpage = "https://mysite:444/myapp/app.aspx";
my $msg = 'An XML Message';
my $req = POST $webpage,
Content_Type => 'text/xml',
Content => $msg;
So far I've tried a few "fixes" that I've found online:
Tried disabling verify hostname through environment variable:
$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME}=0;
Tried disabling verify hostname through ssl_opts:
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new( ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0 }, );
Tried using the Mozilla CA and setting HTTPS_CA_FILE to /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Mozilla/CA/cacert.pem?
At this point I'm out of options to try so I'm hoping someone has run into this problem before and can provide assistance.
It's just a typo, use "verify_hostname" without the "s":
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new( ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0 }, );

Selecting SSL_VERIFY_NONE for SSL_verify_mode

I am trying to create a client connection to an internal ssl site that does not have a certificate and needs to bypass the proxy.
I am able to bypass the proxy, and I am able to connect to the site and create a client connection, however, i am getting this ugly warning:
*******************************************************************
Using the default of SSL_verify_mode of SSL_VERIFY_NONE for client
is deprecated! Please set SSL_verify_mode to SSL_VERIFY_PEER
together with SSL_ca_file|SSL_ca_path for verification.
If you really don't want to verify the certificate and keep the
connection open to Man-In-The-Middle attacks please set
SSL_verify_mode explicitly to SSL_VERIFY_NONE in your application.
*******************************************************************
at C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 31
My Code:
use RPC::XML::Client;
use XML::Simple;
use LWP::Protocol::https;
$ENV{NO_PROXY} = '10.*';
$ENV{'PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME'} = 0;
my $server = RPC::XML::Client->new("$vneUrl/api/index.ice",
ssl_opts => { SSL_verify_mode => 'SSL_VERIFY_NONE',
verify_hostname => 0,
SSL_use_cert => 0x00
},
);
That message is from IO::Socket::SSL, and it refers to the constant SSL_VERIFY_NONE it exports rather than the string 'SSL_VERIFY_NONE'.
Secondly, ssl_opts is an argument of LWP::UserAgent's constructor, not RPC::XML::Client's.
Try:
use IO::Socket::SSL qw( SSL_VERIFY_NONE );
RPC::XML::Client->new($uri,
useragent => [
ssl_opts => {
verify_hostname => 0,
SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_NONE,
},
],
);
New version I believe you should set to 0 or 1.
I think this was a bug:
500 SSL_verify_mode must be a number and not a string
From:
$useragent->ssl_opts(SSL_verify_mode=>'SSL_VERIFY_NONE');
To:
$useragent->ssl_opts(SSL_verify_mode=>'0');

Unable to login into a site using www:Mechanize

I am using WWW:Mechanize to try to login to a site.
Code
use WWW::Mechanize;
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$mech->get("https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/homepage.html/");
$mech->submit_form(
form_name => 'yaSignIn',
fields => {
email => 'email',
qpassword=> 'pass'
}
);
print $mech->content();
However it is not being logged into the site. What am i doing wrong. The website redirects and says please enable cookies to continue. How do i do that .
Try putting this block before your get.
$mech->cookie_jar(
HTTP::Cookies->new(
file => "cookies.txt",
autosave => 1,
ignore_discard => 1,
)
);
SuperEdit2: I just tried this myself and it seemed to work. Give it a try.(changed the form number to 3 and added an agent alias)
use strict;
use warnings;
use WWW::Mechanize;
# Create a new instance of Mechanize
my $bot = WWW::Mechanize->new();
$bot->agent_alias( 'Linux Mozilla' );
# Create a cookie jar for the login credentials
$bot->cookie_jar(
HTTP::Cookies->new(
file => "cookies.txt",
autosave => 1,
ignore_discard => 1,
)
);
# Connect to the login page
my $response = $bot->get( 'https://www.amazon.com/gp/css/homepage.html/' );
# Get the login form. You might need to change the number.
$bot->form_number(3);
# Enter the login credentials.
$bot->field( email => 'email' );
$bot->field( password => 'pass' );
$response = $bot->click();
print $response->decoded_content;
