QUIC does prohibit this. This looks like another case of a client that sent an Initial and went away: a situation that servers have to deal with. In any case, the server cannot retransmit indefinitely because it is bound by the anti-amplification limit. I believe that QUIC works if the server doesn't arm a timer at this point, if it comes to that. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
