[PATCH 6/6] DRBG: HMAC-SHA1 DRBG has crypto strength of 128 bits

2014-07-05 Thread Stephan Mueller
The patch corrects the security strength of the HMAC-SHA1 DRBG to 128 bits. This strength defines the size of the seed required for the DRBG. Thus, the patch lowers the seeding requirement from 256 bits to 128 bits for HMAC-SHA1. Signed-off-by: Stephan Mueller --- crypto/drbg.c | 2 +- 1 file
