Abstract:
When a TLS session is resumed via an abbreviated handshake, the
knowledge of the master secret is used to implicitly mutually
authenticate the two peers. However, an attacker can synchronize two
different TLS sessions, so that they share the same master secret,
breaking the resumption authentication property. This specification
defines a TLS extension that cryptographically binds the resumption
abbreviated handshake with its original session, thus preventing this
attack.
