#22963: Make relay integrity digests harder to guess by padding cells with random bytes --------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: teor | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Tor: 0.3.2.x-final Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: security | Actual Points: Parent ID: #22948 | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: --------------------------+------------------------------------
Comment (by teor): We could random pad the unused bytes in RELAY_DATA cells, because we're unlikely to extend them. But any other types are really hard to random-pad, because we want that space to add future fields in, and zero is a useful default. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22963#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
