Hi Kai,
Here goes some feedback from symkeytuil.

1) Test with a key3.db initialized by saving+removing a credential pair in
thunderbird.
-----------------------------
user@AS2-VDI:~$ /usr/local/AS/bin/symkeyutil -d .thunderbird/linuxint.default/
-L
Name Len Strength Type Data
NSS Certificate DB:
24 168 des3 <restricted>
user@AS2-VDI:~$ python moz_encrypt.py -t -s "mypassword"
MDoEEPgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEwFAYIKoZIhvcNAwcECBi/67pZPKeMBBDcAyRu26fApXi5R8Wq14Eo
-----------------------------
This key is good. We can hash a password with it!
2) Test with a key3.db initialized by certutil + symkeyutil
-----------------------------
user@AS2-VDI:~$ rm .thunderbird/linuxint.default/key3.db
user@AS2-VDI:~$ certutil -N -d .thunderbird/linuxint.default/ -f /tmp/file.txt
-----------------------------
NOTE: file.txt is empty. I'm not using a master password.
-----------------------------
jpalma@AS2-VDI:~$ /usr/local/AS/bin/symkeyutil -d
.thunderbird/linuxint.default/ -L
-----------------------------
No contents, as expected.
-----------------------------
user@AS2-VDI:~$ /usr/local/AS/bin/symkeyutil -d .thunderbird/linuxint.default/
-K -t des3 -s 24
24 168 des3 <restricted>
user@AS2-VDI:~$ /usr/local/AS/bin/symkeyutil -d .thunderbird/linuxint.default/
-L
Name Len Strength Type Data
NSS Certificate DB:
24 168 des3 <restricted>
-----------------------------
The newly created key has the same parameters, apparently.
-----------------------------
user@AS2-VDI:~$ python moz_encrypt.py -t -s "mypassword"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "moz_encrypt.py", line 231, in <module>
main_decryptor(options.directory, password, mystring,
thunderbird=options.thunderbird)
File "moz_encrypt.py", line 204, in main_decryptor
decryptor.encrypt(mystring)
File "moz_encrypt.py", line 178, in encrypt
raise Exception (libnss.PORT_GetError())
Exception: -8126
-----------------------------
Does this keed need to be tagged as THE key that mozilla uses for signons.qlite
password encryption?
Cheers
Gustavo
