New submission from Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de>: Epic for various TLS 1.3 related tasks and improvements
TLS 1.3 requires some changes to the SSL module and tests. The TLS 1.3 handshake behaves slightly differently, which causes some tests to fail. The new handshake and deferred non-application data also affect applications. * TLS 1.3 cipher suites are now set by SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites(), while SSL to TLS 1.2 cipher suites are still set by SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list(). Therefore SSLContext.set_ciphers() no longer fails with invalid cipher suites, because TLS 1.3 are still available. TLS 1.3 cipher suites also cannot be changed or disabled by SSLContext.set_ciphers(). * TLS client cert authentication occurs after SSL_do_handshake() has finished. SSLSocket.connect() / handshake no longer fail, when the server requests a client cert or the available client cert is invalid. The actual authentication occurs when the client performs the first SSL_read() / SSL_write(). * Session tickets are exchanged after the handshake, too. On the client side, the session ticket is only available after the first SSL_read() or other operations that perform a read(). The session ticket class and code no longer works with TLS 1.3. * TLS 1.3 sends two session tickets instead of one. * Server-side handshake can fail with ConnectionResetError or BrokenPipeError, when the client closes the fd while the server is still send non-application data like new session ticket or client cert request. * Client-side unwrap() / shutdown used to fail when a session ticket was stuck on the wire. This problem will be fixed by OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre7, see https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/6340 I'll add a TLS 1.3 section to the ssl module documentation. TLS 1.3 will be a tech-preview and not production-ready until at least OpenSSL 1.1.1-final and Python 3.7.1. Ned, Benjamin, are you OK with that? ---------- assignee: christian.heimes messages: 317413 nosy: alex, benjamin.peterson, christian.heimes, dstufft, janssen, ned.deily priority: high severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Support TLS 1.3 type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33618> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
