Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de> added the comment: Dave, are you still interested to address the issue?
I think it's a good idea to replace HMAC-MD5 in the long run. But instead of hard-coding another hash algorithm, I would like to see an improved handshake protocol that supports flexible authentication algorithms. You could send an algorithm indicator (e.g. HMAC_SHA256) in the request. It would be really cool to run multiprocessing protocol over TLS with support for SASL with SCRAM or EXTERNAL (TLS cert auth, AF_UNIX PEERCRED, GSSAPI)... ---------- status: open -> pending versions: +Python 3.7 -Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue17258> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
