TLS 1.3 zero round trip early data is replayable, so it must carry only idempotent requests

RFC 8446 Appendix E.5 states plainly that the protocol offers no anti-replay guarantee for 0-RTT data on its own. An attacker who captures early data can send it again to the same server or to another member of the same cluster, so a POST that debits an account can execute twice.
Restrict early data to GET and HEAD, or maintain a single-use ticket store, before enabling it. In nginx, turning on the early data directive is only half the configuration: the request handler must also inspect the early data variable and reject or defer unsafe methods, and forgetting that step is the actual bug rather than the directive itself. Clients must be ready for the server to reject early data and to replay the request at 1-RTT.
