This proposal instantiates a new approach for encrypting relay cells on circuits, to prevent certain kinds of tagging attacks, to improve forward secrecy, and more. It is based on research by Jean Paul Degabriele, Alessandro Melloni, Jean-Pierre Münch, and Martijn Stam. You can read their paper at https://eprint.iacr.org/2025/583 This is important and subtle; I'd appreciate any feedback, especially from cryptographers. I plan to start implementing this quite soon, on the theory that, even if there _are_ flaws, it is very unlikely to be _worse_ than our current malleable relay encryption. Please feel free to open tickets on gitlab, or to discuss here. Discussion on the forum is also okay! cheers, -- Nick _______________________________________________ tor-dev mailing list -- tor-dev@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to tor-dev-le...@lists.torproject.org
