The attack I linked to discussed completely theoretical attacks. No examples were provided. The attack we are commenting on does provide an example.
In context it it obvious that I was addressing the contention that the paper I linked to had something to do with an implementation error.
- tptacek 3y agoYes, examples of the attack you dismissed. And you cited it as evidence on this thread about that attack. It's just very funny, is all.
- upofadown 3y agoOK, thanks. I have updated the article to remove the term "theoretical" and have added an appropriate footnote that references the new work.
- tptacek 3y agoThis is still wrong! Leaving aside that hardware faults are themselves implementation pitfalls for RSA, the fundamental failure here is a software implementation flaw. You really need to understand these attacks before you supply guidance about them.
