Re: ECDHE key exchange with TLSv1

January 05, 2011 04:30PM
Hello,

Thanks Maxim for encouragment. Indeed, the patch was really terrible. I did
some code clean-up. Hope, it should be fine right now. The ECDH was
introduced in OpenSSL starting from version 0.9.8. There is a preprocessor
check now. Default EC curve is prime256v1.

Just to be sure, I paste the patch also here:
