Title : Trusted Linker Download Redirection (TLDR)
Author : Ben A. Kennish
Filename : draft-bennish-http-tldr-00.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2014-10-05
Abstract:
This document describes an HTTP extension that allows user agents to
verify downloaded data. It provides a standardised way for an HTTPS
URL (assumed trustworthy) to redirect to a non-HTTPS URL and give the
user agent extra information about the resulting output (e.g. a
downloaded file.) Once that is retrieved, it can check whether or
not the data has been modified since the trustworthy site checked it
(e.g. altered during transit or as a result of the destination site
having been compromised.)
