DDSSEC_ — Contents of KeyMaterial_AES_CTR_HMAC structure unclear

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC_-78
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Twin Oaks Computing, Inc. ( Mr. Clark Tucker)
  • Summary:

    How are the 'master salt', 'master session_salt' and 'master hmac_salt' values conveyed in the KeyMaterial_AES_CTR_HMAC data? Need a more complete description of the structure members.

    Also, recommend renaming/adding OctetSeq members to make it more clear:

    typedef long MasterKeyIdType;
