* [2.7] bpo-32947: Fixes for TLS 1.3 and OpenSSL 1.1.1 (GH-8761) (GH-11876)stratakis2019-02-151-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Backport of TLS 1.3 related fixes from 3.7. Misc fixes and workarounds for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1 from git master and TLS 1.3 support. With OpenSSL 1.1.1, Python negotiates TLS 1.3 by default. Some test cases only apply to TLS 1.2. OpenSSL 1.1.1 has added a new option OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT for TLS 1.3. The feature is enabled by default for maximum compatibility with broken middle boxes. Users should be able to disable the hack and CPython's test suite needs it to verify default options Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org> (cherry picked from commit 2a4ee8aa01d61b6a9c8e9c65c211e61bdb471826)
* [2.7] bpo-28043: improved default settings for SSLContext (GH-10608)stratakis2019-02-151-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | The options OP_NO_COMPRESSION, OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE, OP_SINGLE_DH_USE, OP_SINGLE_ECDH_USE, OP_NO_SSLv2 (except for PROTOCOL_SSLv2), and OP_NO_SSLv3 (except for PROTOCOL_SSLv3) are set by default. The initial cipher suite list contains only HIGH ciphers, no NULL ciphers and MD5 ciphers (except for PROTOCOL_SSLv2). (cherry picked from commit 358cfd426ccc0fcd6a7940d306602138e76420ae)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | (GH-10607) Change TLS 1.3 cipher suite settings for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre6 and newer. OpenSSL 1.1.1 will have TLS 1.3 cipers enabled by default. Also update multissltests to test with latest OpenSSL. Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>.
