[TLS] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-moriarty-tls-oldversions-diediedie-00.txt

[Kathleen Moriarty <[e-mail]>]

Hello,

Stephen and I posted the draft below to see if the TLS working group
is ready to take steps to deprecate TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1.  There has
been a recent drop off in usage for web applications due to the PCI
Council recommendation to move off TLSv1.0, with a recommendation to
go to TLSv1.2 by June 30th.  NIST has also been recommending TLSv1.2
as a baseline.  Applications other than those using HTTP may not have
had the same reduction in usage.  If you are responsible for services
where you have a reasonable vantage point to gather and share
statistics to assess usage further, that could be helpful for the
discussion.  We've received some feedback that has been incorporated
into the working draft and feelers in general have been positive.  It
would be good to know if there are any show stoppers that have not
been considered.

Thanks in advance,

Abstract:
   This document [if approved] formally deprecates Transport Layer
   Security (TLS) versions 1.0 [RFC2246] and 1.1 [RFC4346] and moves
   these documents to the historic state.  These versions lack support
   for current and recommended cipher suites, and various government and
   industry profiiles of applications using TLS now mandate avoiding
   these old TLS versions.  TLSv1.2 has been the recommended version for
   IETF protocols since 2008, providing sufficient time to transition
   away from older versions.  Products having to support older versions
   increase the attack surface unnecessarily and increase opportunities
   for misconfigurations.  Supporting these older versions also requires
   additional effort for library and product maintenance.

   This document updates the backward compatibility sections of TLS RFCs
   [[list TBD]] to prohibit fallback to TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1.  This
   document also updates RFC 7525.




Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
