Details

Currently DTLS discards out of order handshake messages in favor of message by message processing. This precludes getting the full benefit of ACKs in DTLS 1.3 Update this.
Priority: -- → P3
Severity: normal → S3
Blocks: dtls1.3-support

RFC 9147 Appendix C. Implementation Pitfalls :
Do you correctly handle handshake messages received out of order? This may include either buffering or discarding them.

Do we want to implement buffering?

Flags: needinfo?(djackson)
Severity: S3 → S4
Priority: P3 → P5

For now we do not intend to implement the proposed solution, even if we will be happy to review the patch if one is to implement it.
