NIST addresses TLS 1.0-1.2 KDFs in SP 800-135rev1. For 140-2 validation the KDF would be tested via NIST's ASKDFVS. For those riding on the shirttails of #1747, note that the TLS KDF component is implemented in the FIPS-capable OpenSSL library code *outside* of the FIPS Object Module. Though the TLS KDF algorithm may in general be Approved, the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module does not appear to provide a validated TLS KDF. I don't see a CVL cert for TLS KDF listed in #1747.

The SSL3 PRF combines them more weakly and isn't Approved so SSL3 protocol is prohibited. Suites using (pure) HMAC-MD5 for data are not Approved, in any protocol version. And as you say MD5 as such is not allowed anywhere. _______________________________________________ openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__mta.openssl.org_mailman_listinfo_openssl-2Dusers&d=AwICAg&c=BFpWQw8bsuKpl1SgiZH64Q&r=LlsENUS4HI1fg4eMsTxoSOs4zCv38ATLKf-JAHPNl7Q&m=QTOtp0d9KSfYrkzv8qkvuAeqCnPPdxocPR9NO4Au94o&s=08xVu7r1MvSU4yef2ePC4MW_OpSkYmSBF0NjkrWTOew&e= _______________________________________________ openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-users
