Back in 2004, Bodo Möller designed a public key cryptosystem (most precisely a key encapsulation mechanism) that produced pseudo-random ciphertexts, presented it at ESORICS <http://www.bmoeller.de/pdf/pke-pseudo-esorics2004.pdf>, and then ... as far as I can tell, nobody did anything with it.
Eight years later, I have written a reference implementation: <https://github.com/zackw/moeller-ref> I would greatly appreciate it if y'all could try to poke holes in what I've done. There were more than a few subtleties. I am myself most worried about the padding required to make a 163-bit message into a whole number of bytes, but no doubt it is the things I *don't* know to worry about that will get me... Thanks in advance, zw _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
