NOTES:

• Starting with tls-1.5.0, the parameter supportedVersions contains values ordered by decreasing preference, so typically the higher versions first. This departs from code samples previously available. For maximum interoperability, users overriding the default value should verify and adapt their code.

• Post-handshake authentication #363
• Middlebox compatibility #386
• Verification and configuration of session-ticket lifetime #373
• Fixing memory leak #366
• Don’t send 0-RTT data when ticket is expired #370

• Other improvements to TLS 1.3 and RFC conformance #368 #372 #375 #376 #377 #378 #380 #382 #385 #387 #388

Version 1.5.0

• Add and enable AES CCM ciphers #271 #287
• Verify certificate key usage #274 #301
• TLS 1.3 support #278 #279 #280 #283 #298 #331 #290 #314

• Throw BadRecordMac when the decrypted record has invalid format #347
• Improve documentation format #341 #343
• Fix recvClientData with single Handshake packet #352
• Decrease memory footprint of SessionData values #354

FEATURES:

• TLS version 1.3 is available with most features but is not enabled by default. One notable omission is post-handshake authentication. Scenarios where servers previously used renegotiation to conditionally request a certificate are not possible yet when TLS13 is negotiated. Users may enable the version in supportedVersions only when sure post-handshake authentication is not required.

API CHANGES:

• SessionManager implementations need to provide a sessionResumeOnlyOnce function to accomodate resumption scenarios with 0-RTT data. The function is called only on the server side.
• Data type SessionData is extended with four new fields for TLS version 1.3. SessionManager implementations that serializes/deserializes SessionData values must deal with the new fields.
• New configuration parameters and constructors are added for TLS version 1.3 but the API change should be backward compatible for most use-cases.
• Function cipherExchangeNeedMoreData has been removed.

Version 1.4.1

• Enable X25519 in default parameters #265
• Checking EOF in bye #262
• Improving validation in DH key exchange #256
• Handle TCP reset during handshake #251
• Accepting hlint suggestions.

Version 1.4.0

• Wrap renegotiation failures with HandshakeFailed #237
• Improve selection of server certificate and use “signature_algorithms” extension #236
• Change Bytes to ByteString and deprecate the Bytes type alias #230
• Session compression and SNI #223
• Deprecating ciphersuite_medium. Putting WARNING to ciphersuite_all since this includes RC4 #153 #222
• Removing NPN #214
• Supporting RSAPSS defined in TLS 1.3 #207
• Supporting X25519 and X448 in the IES style. #205
• Strip leading zeros in DHE premaster secret #201

FEATURES:

• RSASSA-PSS signatures can be enabled with supportedHashSignatures. This uses assignments from TLS 1.3, for example (HashIntrinsic, SignatureRSApssSHA256).
• Diffie-Hellman with elliptic curves X25519 and X448: This can be enabled with supportedGroups, which also gives control over curve preference.
• ECDH with curve P-256 now uses optimized C implementation from package cryptonite.

API CHANGES:

• Cipher list ciphersuite_medium is now deprecated, users are advised to use ciphersuite_default or ciphersuite_strong. List ciphersuite_all is kept for compatibility with old servers but this is discouraged and generates a warning (this includes RC4 ciphers, see #153 for reference).
• Support for NPN (Next Protocol Negotiation) has been removed. The replacement is ALPN (Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation).
• Data type SessionData now contains fields for compression algorithm and client SNI. A SessionManager implementation that serializes/deserializes SessionData values must deal with the new fields.
• Module Network.TLS exports a type alias named Bytes which is now deprecated. The replacement is to use strict ByteString directly.

The bug happens on efficient server that happens to send the ServerKeyXchg message together with the ServerHello in the same handshake packet. This trigger parsing of all the messages without having set the pending cipher. Delay parsing, when this happen, until we know what to do with it.
