<p dir="auto">It appears that developers can mess up their implementations and hard-code the priority string <code>NORMAL:-VERS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.2:+VERS-TLS1.3</code>, resulting in advertising TLS 1.2, TLS 1.3 in the supported_versions extension, see <a href="https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13528" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13528</a></p>
<p dir="auto">I cannot think of a secure use case where you want to support both TLS 1.2 and 1.3, but prefer TLS 1.2. And clearly, GnuTLS cannot handle spec-compliant servers that end up agreeing TLS 1.2 and send a downgrade signal (see the previous systemd issue). So what about always advertising TLS 1.3 before 1.2, regardless of the priority string?</p>
