DDSSEC_ — Meaning of MasterHMACSalt

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC_-21
  • Legacy Issue Number: 19785
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: ZettaScale Technology ( Mr. Julien Enoch)
  • Summary:

    In Table 47, the meaning of MasterHMACSalt is described as following:
    "A random vector used in connection with the MasterKey to create the SessionHashKey."

    But "SessionHashKey" is never specified and in ยง9.5.3.3.3 the MasterHMACSalt is used for the computation of the SessionHMACKey.

    Thus, the meaning shoud be rephrased as following:
    "A random vector used in connection with the MasterKey to create the SessionHMACKey."
