In my understanding, it should be ya = g^xa (mod p) * B , and ya is sent to the server. yb in yb^xa * B^j (mod p) is the one received from server, which is yb = g ^ xb (mod p).

The ...The answer to why RFC 5114 exists is simple. The NIST standard for Diffie-Hellman key exchanges is NIST Special Publication 800-56A. If you read page 28 of the 2007 version of this standard you will find that NIST explicitly requires that primes for use in Finite Field Diffie-Hellman have the same form as the primes they require for DSA.<br /><br />As far as I know NIST has always accepted primes (p) of a forms such that (p-1)/2 is prime - thus not conforming to their standard. The writers of RFC 5114 were just supplying some primes that actually met NIST's own standard.<br /><br />Regarding the question of why 2 wasn't used as a generator I think the answer is also simple. Given a prime modulus p such that there's another prime q that divides (p-1)/2 you want the generator to be an element of order q. The probability that the integer "2" happens to be of order q is very, very, small. The NIST standard for DSA has several complex processes to generate the generator given the primes p and q.

If p is not a safe prime, it means order of group (since p is prime, = p-1 = q) has small prime factors, say q = q0 q1 ... qn. Assuming one of them is big (call it qi), then you ought to check that ya^qi = 1 mod p. That would ensure that your group order is big, and an attacker cannot trick u into using a small subgroup attack.<br />Can you point out the file where the supposedly fix is done?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832863639484084941.post-9647040445390787682016-01-29T10:08:43.539-08:002016-01-29T10:08:43.539-08:00ooops :) thanks !! updatedooops :) thanks !! updatedllhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409233330078201207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832863639484084941.post-24623114404972401002016-01-29T10:02:43.722-08:002016-01-29T10:02:43.722-08:00Antonio, in the Disclosure Timeline area you list ...Antonio, in the Disclosure Timeline area you list a CVE that doesn't match the title of the article.
