Hello David, or anyone else affected,

Accepted haproxy into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/haproxy/1.8.8-1ubuntu0.5 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  Rebuild haproxy with openssl 1.1.1 will change features (bionic)

Status in haproxy package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in haproxy source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * openssl 1.1.1 has been backported to Bionic for its longer
     support upstream period

   * That would allow the extra feature of TLSv1.3 in some consuming
     packages what seems "for free". Just with a no change rebuild it would
     pick that up.

  [Test Case]

   * run "haproxy -vv" and check the reported TLS versions to include
  1.3

  [Regression Potential]

   * This should be low, the code already runs against the .so of the newer
     openssl library. This would only make it recognize the newer TLS
     support.
     i'd expect more trouble as-is with the somewhat big delta between what
     it was built against vs what it runs with than afterwards.
   * [1] and [2]  indicate that any config that would have been made for
     TLSv1.2 [1] would not apply to the v1.3 as it would be configured in
     [2].
     It is good to have no entry for [2] yet as following the defaults of
     openssl is the safest as that would be updated if new insights/CVEs are
     known.
     But this could IMHO be the "regression that I'd expect", one explcitly
     configured the v1.2 things and once both ends support v1.3 that might
     be auto-negotiated. One can then set "force-tlsv12" but that is an
     administrative action [3]
   * Yet AFAIK this fine grained control [2] for TLSv1.3 only exists in
     >=1.8.15 [4] and Bionic is on haproxy 1.8.8. So any user of TLSv1.3 in
     Bionic haproxy would have to stay without that. There are further 
     changes to TLS v1.3 handling enhancements [5] but also fixes [6] which 
     aren't in 1.8.8 in Bionic.
     So one could say enabling this will enable an inferior TLSv1.3 and one
     might better not enable it, for an SRU the bar to not break old 
     behavior is intentionally high - I tried to provide as much as possible 
     background, the decision is up to the SRU team.

  [Other Info]

   * If this is nack'ed we will need an upload that prevents to enable
     TLSv1.3 to avoid enabling it by accident on e.g. a security update.

  ---

  haproxy needs to be rebuilt after #1797386 to take advantage of
  TLSv1.3.

  (If that's not desirable for some reason, then maybe TLSv1.3 should be
  actively disabled to avoid any surprises in case of a future bug fix
  release.)
