DESCRIPTION A server application wishing to use TLSv1.3 PSKs should set a callback using either SSL_CTX_set_psk_find_session_callback() or SSL_set_psk_find_session_callback() as appropriate.
The callback function is given a pointer to the SSL connection in ssl and an identity in identity of length identity_len. The callback function should identify an SSL_SESSION object that provides the PSK details and store it in *sess. The SSL_SESSION object should, as a minimum, set the master key, the ciphersuite and the protocol version. See SSL_CTX_set_psk_use_session_callback(3) for details.
It is also possible for the callback to succeed but not supply a PSK. In this case no PSK will be used but the handshake will continue. To do this the callback should return successfully and ensure that *sess is NULL.
Identity hints are not relevant for TLSv1.3. A server application wishing to use PSK ciphersuites for TLSv1.2 and below may call SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint() to set the given NUL-terminated PSK identity hint hint for SSL context object ctx. SSL_use_psk_identity_hint() sets the given NUL-terminated PSK identity hint hint for the SSL connection object ssl. If hint is NULL the current hint from ctx or ssl is deleted.
the pre-shared key used during the connection setup phase. The callback is set using the functions SSL_CTX_set_psk_server_callback() or SSL_set_psk_server_callback(). The callback function is given the connection in parameter ssl, NUL-terminated PSK identity sent by the client in parameter identity, and a buffer psk of length max_psk_len bytes where the pre-shared key is to be stored.
The callback for use in TLSv1.2 will also work in TLSv1.3 although it is recommended to use SSL_CTX_set_psk_find_session_callback() or SSL_set_psk_find_session_callback() for this purpose instead. If TLSv1.3 has been negotiated then OpenSSL will first check to see if a callback has been set via SSL_CTX_set_psk_find_session_callback() or SSL_set_psk_find_session_callback() and it will use that in preference. If no such callback is present then it will check to see if a callback has been set via SSL_CTX_set_psk_server_callback() or SSL_set_psk_server_callback() and use that. In this case the handshake digest will default to SHA-256 for any returned PSK. TLSv1.3 early data exchanges are possible in PSK connections only with the SSL_psk_find_session_cb_func callback, and are not possible with the SSL_psk_server_cb_func callback.
A connection established via a TLSv1.3 PSK will appear as if session resumption has occurred so that SSL_session_reused(3) will return true.
RETURN VALUES SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint() and SSL_use_psk_identity_hint() return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
Return values from the TLSv1.2 and below server callback are interpreted as follows:
0 PSK identity was not found. An "unknown_psk_identity" alert message will be sent and the connection setup fails.
>0 PSK identity was found and the server callback has provided the PSK successfully in parameter psk. Return value is the length of psk in bytes. It is an error to return a value greater than max_psk_len.
If the PSK identity was not found but the callback instructs the protocol to continue anyway, the callback must provide some random data to psk and return the length of the random data, so the connection will fail with decryption_error before it will be finished completely.
The SSL_psk_find_session_cb_func callback should return 1 on success or 0 on failure. In the event of failure the connection setup fails.
NOTES There are no known security issues with sharing the same PSK between TLSv1.2 (or below) and TLSv1.3. However, the RFC has this note of caution:
"While there is no known way in which the same PSK might produce related output in both versions, only limited analysis has been done. Implementations can ensure safety from cross-protocol related output by not reusing PSKs between TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2."
