OK, but if those extra payloads are disguised as some notification (there is no
payload actually called “info”),
then responders do tend to ignore notifications they don’t recognize.
True, but in this case the inputs to the hash function will be different (you
need to insert Notification
payload header in the m`), so the attack will fail.
I must correct myself - if attacker takes care and puts the Notify payload
header at the end of ck
it sends to initiator (and he must correctly guess the length of info`), then
it will work - all the
original payloads from the initiator will appear inside Notification payload
and will be ignored by responder.
