Hello list, I'm currently trying to improve the SMTP dissector regarding the AUTH command. Up to now I finished the 'AUTH LOGIN' mechanism (s. Bug 8591). Next I would like to decode the 'AUTH PLAIN' mechanism (RFC 4616).
With the PLAIN mechanism the packet has a base64 encoded string containing: [authorization user](\x00)[authentication user](\x00)[password] For example: dGVzdAB0ZXN0ADEyMzQ= contains test(NUL)test(NUL)1234 I tried to decode the base64 string with the epan_base64_decode() function (from epan/base64.h). Unfortunately this fails. I only get a wrong three bytes long string. I guess the problem is the NUL character as a delimiter. Do you have an idea if this is bug in the epan_base64_decode() function or do I have to do the decoding another way? Thanks a lot!
