Perhaps, but that state does not need to be more that a bit or two in each direction for the signaling. State derived from the previous handshake is already available at both endpoints. It is not necessary to carry over more! This state currently resides in: client write MAC secret server write MAC secret client write key server write key These secure entropy within these parameters are considered sufficient to protect all the application data, why aren't they good enough to establish continuity-of-identity across the renegotiation? Seems to me the MAC_secret is better than the Finished message if for no other reason than it's 20 bytes instead of 12. Currently, all this hard-won entropy is discarded at the CCS. A tragedy! My proposal: At the CCS, instead of replacing the client/server MAC secret data, simply XOR-merge the incoming values with the previous ones. * A one-line software change. * Easy even in hardware. * Preserves more entropy. * No changes to PRF. Please actively attempt to shoot it down. - Marsh
