2010-01-28Proposal 169: Eliminate TLS renegotiationNick Mathewson
I propose a backward-compatible change to the Tor connection establishment protocol to avoid the use of TLS renegotiation. Rather than doing a TLS renegotiation to exchange certificates and authenticate the original handshake, this proposal takes an approach similar to Steven Murdoch's proposal 124, and uses Tor cells to authenticate the parties' identities once the initial TLS handshake is finished.
