Therefore, I do NOT decline this vulnerability. I decline it's security implications. It's on the same level as the vulnerability, that you will give away your root password under torture.[2] Nothing about kernel crypto is backdoored. If Ruusu thinks different, he should show me source code. Till then, treat it as FUD. <off-topic> [2] I think the torture vulnerability is more serious than any watermarking "attack". "Rubberhosing" can be fixed btw. http://web.archive.org/web/20031214064240/http://www.rubberhose.org/ Unfortunately, original site is down and source code outdated. </off-topic> -- Fruhwirth Clemens <clemens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://clemens.endorphin.org
