#3: Concat used outside of key agreement
Comment (by [email protected]): After a conversation initiated by Joe Hildebrand and a call scheduled by Matt Miller, David McGrew has agreed refactor draft-mcgrew-aead-aes-hmac- sha2 so that the inputs and outputs are specified separately and independently from the RFC 5116 encoding of those values, as documented in the minutes at http://www.ietf.org/mail- archive/web/jose/current/msg01884.html. While RFC 5116 specifies a binary serialization for authenticated encryption algorithms, JWE specifies a textual serialization. This refactoring would make it easy for JOSE to use the McGrew draft, since the computation would be specified separately from the serialization, should the working group choose to do so. JWA could then reference the appropriate sections of draft-mcgrew-aead- aes-hmac-sha2 and JWE could include an example computation for this algorithm, making it easy for developers to build. -- -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: draft-ietf-jose-json-web- [email protected] | [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: json-web- | Version: encryption | Resolution: Severity: Active WG | Document | Keywords: | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Ticket URL: <https://tools.ietf.org/wg/jose/trac/ticket/3#comment:2> jose <http://tools.ietf.org/jose/> _______________________________________________ jose mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/jose
