Backdoored PRNG
Exploit a backdoor in an elliptic curve based PRNG
It is interesting to note that in this case (and the FIPS standard), P
is a generator point for P-256, so if Q
lies on the curve P-256 then there must exist some d
such that dQ = P
. In other words, for all Dual_EC implementations where P
is a generator, the backdoor exists.
Hello there, Can you suggest a good python library for EC arithmetics ?
The ecdsa
library should work just fine for doing EC arithmetic. $ pip install ecdsa
.
