support for TLS v1.3

Added by Marc Mueller about 4 years ago

Hi,

I am using

wt 3.3.6

boost 1.60.0

OpenSSL 1.0.2e

which supports TLSv1.2

Can Wt support TLSv1.3 if I update the library's to

OpenSSL 1.1.1

Boost 1.70.0

or higher?

If not, is it possible with an upgrade of Wt?

Thanks,

Marc

I don't think you will simply be able to update OpenSSL and Boost without updating Wt, which I would generally recommend anyway, especially if you care about security. I know at some point Wt wouldn't build with the new version of Boost anymore, and I had to apply some fixes.

I would have to verify it, but as I believe TLS v1.3 is completely handled by Boost.Asio and OpenSSL, it should just work if Boost and OpenSSL support it.

Just verified that the latest version of Wt, in combination with recent versions of Boost and OpenSSL, does indeed support TLS v1.3.

Thanks for your fast reply.

I will try it out.
