The following errata report has been submitted for RFC8446, "The Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Version 1.3".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid6204 -------------------------------------- Type: Editorial Reported by: Chris Wood <c...@heapingbits.net> Section: E.1 Original Text ------------- Implementations MUST NOT combine external PSKs with certificate-based authentication of either the client or the server unless negotiated by some extension. Corrected Text -------------- Implementations MUST NOT combine external PSKs with certificate-based authentication of either client or the server. Future specifications MAY provide an extension to permit this. Notes ----- The existing text can be misread as permitting this combination upon negotiation of the "post_handshake_auth" extension, which would be incorrect. [1] describes an attack that can occur based on this misinterpretation. The proposed text aims to make clear that a *new* extension is required for this combination.
