Mathematician warns US spies may be weakening next-gen encryption
(www.newscientist.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yeah you can observe this with letsencrypt failing to generate a certificate if you change the elliptic curve from an NSA generated curve to a generic/known safe one. Changing between different NSA curves are functionally fine. Forces all signed certificates to use curves that are known to have issues, deliberate or otherwise - i.e. backdoored.
Can you elaborate on this? Which curves does it happen with? Is there some source that you’ve seen?
