Node: TLS 1.3 Support

[rahbari]

As TLS 1.3 has been approved by IETF and browsers will start to adopt it soon, it's nice to have it in node.js too.

[bnoordhuis]

Thanks for the suggestion but TLS 1.3 is already on the roadmap and this issue isn't actionable until we upgrade to a version of openssl that supports TLS 1.3.

I'll close this out for now, maybe I'll reopen it by the time we start the upgrade.

Update close yet? @bnoordhuis

@cyphercodes OpenSSL will support TLS 1.3 starting with version 1.1.1 and as @bnoordhuis wrote this (or newer) version is required to add TLS 1.3 support to Node.js. Latest version of OpenSSL v1.1.1 is Beta 6 build (pre release 8) since 20.06.2018.

Any news on this? I see the OpenSSL 1.1.0i is out since 14-Aug-2018, is this what we were waiting for to ship tls 1.3?

[krzysdz]

@damianobarbati As I wrote in my previous comment TLS 1.3 is supported by OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer (NOT the 1.1.0x line).

According to this mail in openssl-project mailing list final release date for 1.1.1 is Tuesday 11th September

@bnoordhuis -> OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. Can you please reopen the issue?

[krzysdz]

@sagi I think that there's no reason to reopen this issue as #18770 is an open issue about OpenSSL 1.1.1 support.
