New submission from Christian Heimes: Since Python 3.6 the ssl module has three new protocols:
* PROTOCOL_TLS is the new, preferred, and less confusing name of PROTOCOL_SSLv23. It performs auto-negotiation of the best TLS/SSL protocol supported by client and server. * PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT is a client-only variant of PROTOCOL_TLS. The protocol also enables check_hostname and CERT_REQUIRED. * PROTOCOL_TLS_SERVER is server side-only variant. It leaves check_hostname disabled and has CERT_NONE (no client cert validation). Tests and code should prefer PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT and PROTOCOL_TLS_SERVER whenever possible. ---------- assignee: christian.heimes components: SSL messages: 301282 nosy: christian.heimes priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Prefer PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT/SERVER type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31346> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
