DESCRIPTION

18       This package provides the XGoogleToken authentication mechanism for the
19       Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL).

21       Please read the documentation for package sasl for details.

TLS SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS

24       This package uses the TLS package to handle the security for https urls
25       and other socket connections.
26
27       Policy  decisions like the set of protocols to support and what ciphers
28       to use are not the responsibility of TLS, nor of  this  package  itself
29       however.   Such  decisions are the responsibility of whichever applica‐
30       tion is using the package, and are likely  influenced  by  the  set  of
31       servers the application will talk to as well.
32
33       For  example,  in light of the recent POODLE attack [http://googleonli‐
34       nesecurity.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/this-poodle-bites-exploiting-
35       ssl-30.html] discovered by Google many servers will disable support for
36       the SSLv3 protocol.  To handle this change the applications  using  TLS
37       must  be  patched,  and not this package, nor TLS itself.  Such a patch
38       may be as simple as generally activating tls1 support, as shown in  the
39       example below.
40
41
42                  package require tls
43                  tls::init -tls1 1 ;# forcibly activate support for the TLS1 protocol
44
45                  ... your own application code ...
