- croemer 2y agoI never suggested that Yahoo uses 512bit keys, that's a misunderstanding. The article clearly states that Yahoo is one of the 3 clients that didn't reject 512bit keys the way they should per RFC. Yahoo Mail inbox users are vulnerable _receivers_ of spoofed emails.
- 1oooqooq 2y agoremember when yahoo mail was the first one to implement DKIM validation and then all mailing list owners added a footer telling their subscribers not to use yahoo mail because it was broken, instead of calling their mailing list providers to upload a key? yeah nobody remembers, but yahoo probably do. i doubt they will err on the side of security again.
- jaza 2y agoThe Yahoo that built Yahoo Mail no longer exists, so actually they probably don't remember.
