Re: DTLS Heartbeat Removed in OpenSSL 1.1.1

Hi, 

I am just following up with my earlier mail as I did not get an answer.   I now understand that the heartbeat mechanism is completely removed in OpenSSL 1.1.1,  whereas it's still available in gnuTLS.   So I do not understand why it was removed from OpenSSL
Having your own keepalive mechanism(at application level) the only way forward ?  I am still looking for some answers.    Can someone throw some light on it ?

Regards,
Vijay

Hello, 

From the release notes of OpenSSL 1.1.1, I could see that DTLS heartbeat has been removed

Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.  

With  RFC 6520 in standards track, any specific reason(Vulnerability/other security issue reported) for the removal ?,   How can we re-enable it ?  Recompile OpenSSL without OPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS macro ?   Please advise.

Regards,
Vijay
