Under TLS 1.3 a PSK is only offered and may be declined, and both sides fall back to certificate authentication when one is available, so CERT_NONE leaves the server unauthenticated and a zero length PSK does not reject the connection. Drop CERT_NONE from the example and the PSK tests.

Under TLS 1.3 a PSK is only an offer. The server can decline it and authenticate with a certificate instead, which the client then checks according to
verify_mode(RFC 8446 section 2.2). OpenSSL documents the client side in SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback(3): if the callback supplies no PSK, "no PSK will be sent to the server but the handshake will continue".The example and the PSK tests set
CERT_NONE, so a client copied from them accepts any certificate-authenticated server under TLS 1.3. The docs now describe this, and the example and tests keep theCERT_REQUIREDdefault, which needs no CA certificates for a PSK handshake.On the server side, "return a zero length PSK to reject the connection" only holds under TLS 1.3 if the server has no certificate. With one loaded, the handshake falls back to certificate authentication and
session_reusedis false, so theset_psk_server_callback()docs now say that too.ANT-2026-2VE2XWXR
