Description
TLSv1.3 implementation currently does not support Russian GOST cipher suites TLS_GOSTR341112_256_WITH_KUZNYECHIK_MGM_L, TLS_GOSTR341112_256_WITH_MAGMA_MGM_L, TLS_GOSTR341112_256_WITH_KUZNYECHIK_MGM_S and TLS_GOSTR341112_256_WITH_MAGMA_MGM_S.
Also there are no SN_, OBJ_ and NID_ defines for underlying algorithms Magma MGM and Kuznyechik MGM.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reviewing the TLSv1.3 implementation and the existing SN_, OBJ_, and NID_ definitions for related algorithms. Confirm that all four listed GOST cipher suites are supported and that Magma MGM and Kuznyechik MGM have the requested definitions; the open linked pull request indicates work is already underway.
