I agree with the others that TLS should use exclusively RSA-PSS (with all the parameters fixed according to the digest function used to digest the data) when RSA is used in the protocol. Implementations that can't support PSS in hardware can either implement it in software or use ECDSA or keep on using TLS 1.2. Cheers, Brian -- https://briansmith.org/
