Eric's proposal to make renegotiation secure does not need any API-level changes, everything is completely internal to the TLS protocol engine. What you're looking for might be necessary for application-level channel bindings, but that is a different topic. I don't mind discussing this, but I would appreciate if you identify the topic/solution that you're discussing. ;-) > > I perfectly understand, and _share_, the > desire to use existing interfaces where possible.

On the network, the finished messages are protected under the negotiated ciphersuite. Eric's proposal used the verify_data in its decrypted form, and I thought you were asking for these as well. > > We've looked at this problem many times before, and this is always the > conclusion that we've come to.

Your desire to get your hands on the finished message from the App layer for channel binding purposes is an API issue. The TLS-specs describe only bits-on-the-wire, protocol semantics and TLS session state management. The TLS specs are entirely silent on API issues. (The IETF does not do APIs, and GSS-API is an exception.) -Martin
