- Section A.1, step 2 - "Encrypt the random integer Z..."; shouldn't this be z
instead of Z. I see RFC 5099 used z. Why was that changed?
RFC 5990 uses both z and Z.
Z = IntegerToString (z, nLen)
Dhruv: I understood that lowercase z is the integer, whereas Z is the string and since the text uses "random integer", I thought this ought to be z instead of Z. Am I wrong?
In RFC 5990, you do math on z (e.g., c = z^e mod n). I believe the same is true in rfc5990bis (e.g., z = ct^d mod n).
OLD: 2. Encrypt the random integer Z using the recipient's RSA
NEW: 2. Encrypt the random integer z using the recipient's RSA
END
In the initial highlighted text my concern was only with the use of "Z" instead of "z" when referring to it as a random integer. Note that at every other place you use z as well.
Thanks! Dhruv
