Hi, I'm trying to implement some of the encfs features in a python program (off-site backup to a webdav server) and I don't really understand how "IV chaining" is working.
As I understand, it's the function 'setIVec' in SSL_Cipher.cpp which is used to calculate an IV based on a "seed" (previous IV ?) but: - how can I initialize it ? Where is this "initial seed" ? How is it used ? - Is this "IV chaining" also used for end-of-file streaem cipher (AES CFB) ? I think so but how is the IV calculated in this case ? Thanks ! David PS. I know I could use davfs but it's not working that well here (cache, not designed for huge files uplaod, ...) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
