Re: md5?

I don’t seem to be able to find any md5s for your code downloads. Is it just me, or are there none? For future reference, here’s my public key.  It’s the same one that’s been there since the bitcoin.org site first went up in 2008.  Grab it now in case […]

Quote from: gavinandresen on July 25, 2010, 21:38:19 Great catch!

Re: JSON-RPC password

Quote from: lachesis on July 25, 2010, 19:52:35 I found what appears to be a bug: with a long enough username and password combination, the base64 encoder in bitcoind produces authorization headers that look like this: Code: … Authorization: Basic YWJiYWJiYWFiYmE6aGVsbG93b3JsZGhlbGxvd29ybGRoZWxsb3dvcmxkaGVsbG93 b3JsZGhlbGxvd29ybGRoZWxsb3dvcmxk It inserts a newline every 64 characters, which […]

Re: Stealing Coins

Quote Here is a paper that claims to find SHA-1 collisions in 2^52 crypto operations. And optimally secure hash would take 2^80 operations. 2^52 time is still large, but it is getting into cluster and botnet range. 2^80 is if you can use a birthday attack.  You can’t use a […]

Re: Stealing Coins

You stopped my post just in time! 🙂 Red, thanks for telling me privately first!  Please go ahead and post it (and relieve the suspense for everyone!) His point is that transactions paid to a Bitcoin Address are only as secure as the hash function.  To make Bitcoin Addresses short, […]
