I was responding to an overly broad statement you made. In the discussion you also talk about timing side-channels and other ways in which information can leak. Nothing we do at the TLS layer will prevent those from being created in applications. Also, it might pay to remember that this is part of a larger context. Applications routinely retry and replay; if they didn't, users would. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
