A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 7366 Title: Encrypt-then-MAC for Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) Author: P. Gutmann Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: September 2014 Mailbox: pgut001@cs.auckland.ac.nz Pages: 7 Characters: 15775 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-tls-encrypt-then-mac-03.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7366.txt This document describes a means of negotiating the use of the encrypt-then-MAC security mechanism in place of the existing MAC-then- encrypt mechanism in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS). The MAC-then-encrypt mechanism has been the subject of a number of security vulnerabilities over a period of many years. This document is a product of the Transport Layer Security Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
