        Specification

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9155.html


        Summary

Chrome is removing support for signature algorithms using SHA-1 for server signatures during the TLS handshake. This does not affect SHA-1 support in server certificates, which was already removed, or in client certificates, which continues to be supported.

Internals>Network>SSL <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Internals%3ENetwork%3ESSL>


        Motivation

SHA1 has known collisions, and while difficult to exploit in practice, should be avoided. Removing SHA1 support from server signatures removes the ability for a future attacker to exploit some sort of collision in SHA1 to impersonate a server. The use of SHA1 in TLS has already been deprecated by the IETF in RFC 9155. This does not affect client certificates. The decision of whether or not to accept SHA1 in client certificates can be made by server operators who have deployed mTLS.

        WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?

<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?

No


        Flag name

We should stick this change behind a flag, if it isn't already. (This is an I2P, so maybe you're getting to that :)).


        Requires code in //chrome?

False
