(I think there's no real need for the ServerHello to include either of them, actually, but I've not thought enough about that.) But it's OK as is, of course. - You call for each TLS handshake to bind to the one immediately outside it. Would it be better to bind to the outer-most one instead? (In practice there's probably never more than one outer and one inner handshake, right?) - There is a way for clients to protect themselves even when servers don't implement this extension: a) clients MUST NOT ever send any application-level messages without TLS protection if they are willing to negotiate a TLS connection after sending any application-level messages, _and_, b) if a server requests re-negotiation then the client MUST ensure that the outer and inner TLS connection handshakes used a server certificate, and, specifically, the _same_ server certificate, otherwise the client MUST abort without ever completing the second/inner handshake. This should be stated as it is a helpful workaround that works without modifying the protocol. It's not a generic solution, and it's a client-side-only solution, which is why it's highly desirable to apply the proposed channel binding solution instead. - Might as well update RFC5246 to indicate that the Finished messages for any connection MUST be exported to applications. Better get this done now. Nico --
