Re: [TLS] Does TLS support ECDHE based SEED cipher suites?

  *   IIRC, this was intentional: make it easy to get a code point so people 
don't squat on them, but have IANA maintain a list of "recommended" ciphers, as 
shown in the catalog here:

IANA maintains the list, under the direction of the designated experts, but 
whether or not something is recommended comes from the TLS group, not either of 
the first two. Which is good, you don’t want recommendations coming from 
(currently) just three people.

I don't know what the background for this request is, but I'd like to
point out that we had similar discussions in the past about obscure
ciphers (look for brainpool curves) in the past.

This is my personal opinion, but I think it is widely shared among many
in the community:
It used to be that the TLS community valued supporting as many ciphers
as possible. But this has more or less ended with TLS 1.3, which is
part of a larger realization in IT security that unnecessary complexity
is usually bad and should be avoided.
Instead the trend is to support a small set of algorithms that are
generally considered "okay-ish" (there are always minor ups and downs
of certain cipher choices) and leave it with that and not seek to
support a wide variety of algorithms.

I'd oppose any specification of new cipher suites without a good
justification, and I think this is an opinion many here share.

No, those have not been added. The actual registry is at:

https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.txt

There are no cipher suites with both ECDHE and SEED (or cipher suite
for SEED in TLS 1.3). My guess is that this is because SEED has
essentially been obsoleted by ARIA.

For ARIA, one can find TLS 1.2 chipersuites with ECDHE and AEAD.
Altough there are no cipher suites for TLS 1.3, so ARIA can not be used
in TLS 1.3 either.

[TLS] Does TLS support ECDHE based SEED cipher suites?

2021-12-29 Thread M K Saravanan
Hi,

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4162#section-3.3 says the
following SEED cipher suites are supported for TLS:


==

  CipherSuite TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA  = { 0x00, 0x96};
  CipherSuite TLS_DH_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA   = { 0x00, 0x97};
  CipherSuite TLS_DH_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA   = { 0x00, 0x98};
  CipherSuite TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA  = { 0x00, 0x99};
  CipherSuite TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA  = { 0x00, 0x9A};
  CipherSuite TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA  = { 0x00, 0x9B};

Does anyone know whether any ECDHE based cipher suites were added for
SEED for TLS?


with regards,
Saravanan
