For those wondering: "upgrading the Estonian ID cards" means switching to ECC (P-384).
New certificates are generated on the chip, and the public part is then transmitted to the government public keys directory.
- bdonlan 9y agoHow do they authenticate the new ECC policy key when the RSA key is already compromised?
- dullgiulio 9y agoYou don't. Hence, the upgrade system has been disabled now, which is TFA.
- bragh 9y agoAm Estonian. The remote upgrade system is still working, but only enabled for high-priority users right now because of the high load - medical professionals, social workers, people who used the card more than 100 times over the past 3 months. It will be re-enabled for all users at the start of next week, maybe earlier if the high-priority users have all been serviced.
