Description
Section 4.1.1 describes support for a renegotiation ciphersuite as a mechanism to indicate support for fixed renegotiation if extensions are removed from the ClientHello?. This prevents a MITM attack against clients which use a fallback behavior.
The draft currently questions whether this is needed.
