Re: [TLS] Call to Move RFC 8773 from Experimental to Standards Track

2023-12-03 Thread Eric Rescorla
To respond directly to the call: I think we should require some level of
formal analysis for this kind of extension.

If there is some, I think the WG should look at it to determine whether
it's sufficient. If there isn't I think this should remain at experimental.
Not having a normative downref is not a good reason; those are trivial to
manage.

Re: [TLS] Call to Move RFC 8773 from Experimental to Standards Track

2023-12-03 Thread Christian Huitema

+1

Reading RFC 8773, I feel at least a tension and maybe a contradiction 
between the stated motivation, resisting to quantum analysis by 
combining an [EC]DH derived secret and a PSK, and the use of the PSK 
alone to derive the early secret. If the early secret is used for 0-RTT, 
then the adversary have some information that only depend on the PSK. 
That information might be used to facilitate the attack on [EC]DH+PSK, 
especially if the PSK is not strong enough to resist quantum analysis.


At this point, this consideration is only a gut feeling. A formal 
analysis would either dispel my weak guess, or confirm it and result in 
specific recommendations such as not using the early secret. Plus, the 
formal analysis might also find other issues, behind this one.
