A certificate-store JSON list maps 40+ regional server hostnames of commercial VPN brands WaselPro, BVPN/BackboneVPN, iWasel, and SmokeTunnel (e.g. ca.us.waselpro.com, hk.as.bvpn.com, de.eu.smoketunnel.com) to their captured X.509 TLS certificates (base64-encoded), matching the taxonomy's certstore capability description of per-connection Trusted/Untrusted profiles and certificate-pinning-detection classification.
"domain": "ca.us.waselpro.com", "ca": "LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBDRVJUSUZJQ0FURS0tLS0t..." ... "domain": "hk.as.bvpn.com" ... "domain": "de.eu.smoketunnel.com"
Defense implications
- Consumer VPN apps whose TLS certificates are pre-harvested per-region-server can have their sessions flagged/MITM'd or pinning-bypass-classified regardless of the app's own pinning logic; circumvention transports should avoid TLS server certificates that are stable, enumerable, or tied to predictable per-region hostnames.

The TSG session_record schema in use at the Myanmar (YGN-MYTEL) deployment includes, in the same per-session record, both TLS-interception status fields (proxy_pinning_status, proxy_intercept_status, proxy_cert_verify, proxy_passthrough_reason, proxy_intercept_error) and individual-subscriber-identity fields (subscriber_id, imei, imsi, apn, phone_number) -- confirming MITM/certificate-interception capability and per-person subscriber correlation are built into the same live logging pipeline at an actual export site, not just described separately in marketing/config material.
Two independently-leaked TSG session-log CSV exports share an identical 224-field schema whose proxy_* columns (proxy_action, proxy_pinning_status, proxy_intercept_status, proxy_cert_verify, proxy_intercept_error) log the outcome of TLS interception per session, alongside ssl_ja3_hash/ssl_ja3s_hash, ssl_esni_flag, ssl_ech_flag, and quic_sni fields — confirming MITM/cert-pinning-bypass instrumentation and TLS/QUIC fingerprinting are built into TSG's standard traffic-logging pipeline, not a bolt-on feature.
An internal MESA Lab report (2021-06-25) documents a live test in which a second sapp instance ('sapp B') receives fully decrypted plaintext HTTP traffic via a Unix domain socket from a third-party TLS decryption platform, while sapp A separately captures raw ciphertext via the mrzcpd driver. 24 hours of the decrypted logs (319,569 HTTP records) show the top intercepted destinations are Facebook, Twitter, Google/YouTube and Instagram, with client IPs traced to residential China Telecom/Unicom/Mobile subscribers in Guangdong, Zhejiang and other provinces.
The same 224-column TSG per-session log schema carries a full TLS- interception field set — proxy_pinning_status, proxy_intercept_status, proxy_passthrough_reason, proxy_cert_verify, proxy_intercept_error, sc_rsp_raw and sc_rsp_decrypted (raw vs. decrypted server response content) — plus ssl_esni_flag and ssl_ech_flag (explicit ECH/ESNI-usage flags), ssl_ja3_hash/ssl_ja3s_hash, and ssh_hassh (SSH client fingerprinting), confirming certstore-style MITM interception, ECH/ESNI detection, and TLS/SSH fingerprinting are all first-class fields logged on every session, not experimental add-ons.
An internal TSG troubleshooting runbook ("HTTPS证书替换策略无效果") documents the certstore MITM-certificate service actively serving/validating forged certificates keyed by SNI, walking an operator through checking certstore logs for specific real-world domains including Google's update service (update.googleapis.com) and Nvidia's GFE service (services.gfe.nvidia.com), and cross-checking keyring config live via maat_redis_tool.
certstore's own commit history documents its transparent-TLS-MITM mechanics directly: it writes the client's observed SNI into the SAN field of the leaf certificate it mints on the fly, supports ECC issuance (secp192r1/secp256r1) for those forged certs, and reads its Trusted/Untrusted decryption-keyring configuration from MAAT's DECRYPTION_KEYRING table -- confirming the interception pipeline end-to-end: client SNI in, matching forged certificate out, gated by MAAT-synced keyring policy.
