            How do i write from stream to file without breaking it?
            Asked 2020-Dec-03 at 20:34

            I have to select file, split it on 10kb, encrypt and send it thru networkstream (tcp).

            On server side, I have to receive it, decrypt it and save file on other location. Code is working and it transfers all bytes with byte[], but if I select image or word document you cannot open it, but they both have the same size. I am using combination of DiffieHellman and Aes.

            Problem was in encoding. I used ASCII and it didnt work for strange letters. If you use Convert.FromBase64String and Convert.ToBase64String it works.

            Implementation of kleptography in Python (SETUP attack)

            My task is to reproduce the plot below:

            It comes from this journal (pg 137-145)

            In this article, the authors describe a kleptographic attack called SETUP against Diffie-Hellman keys exchange. In particular, they write this algorithm:

            Now, in 2 the authors thought "Maybe we can implement honest DHKE and malicious DHKE, and then we compare the running time of the two algorithms". Then, the plot above was created. For this purpose, they say

            "We have implemented contaminated and uncontaminated versions of Diffie-Hellman protocols in ANSI C and linked with RSAREF 2.0 library using GNU C v 2.7 compiler. All tests were run on Linux system using a computer with a Pentium II processor (350 MHz) and 64 Mb memory. Computation time for a single protocol was measured in 10- 2s."

            I want to do the same, i.e. implement good and evil DH and compare the running time. This is the code I produced:

            The problem is most easily understood using a concrete example: Alice has a device that generates Diffie-Hellman keys for her. On this device the malicious Diffie Hellman variant is implemented.

            Implementation of the malicious DH variant / SETUP

            The malicious DH variant is defined as follows, s. here, sec. 3.1:

            MDH1: For the first generated key pair the following applies:

            • The private key c1 is a random value smaller than p-1. c1 is stored for later use.
            • The public key is calculated according to m1 = gc1 mod p.
            • The device provides Alice with the private key (c1) and the public key (m1).

            MDH2: For the second generated key pair the following applies:

            • A random t is chosen (0 or 1).
            • z2 is calculated according to z2 = g(c1 - Wt) * Y(-ac1 - b) mod p.
            • The private key c2 is calculated according to H(z2). Here H is a cryptographic hash function. c2 is stored for later use.
            • The public key is calculated according to m2 = gc2 mod p.
            • The device provides Alice with the private key (c2) and the public key (m2).

            MDHi: What happens for the third and subsequent key pairs? The same algorithm is used as for the second generated key pair, i.e. for example for the third key exchange, c2 is now used instead of c1 and m2 is now used instead of m1, or in general if the i-th key pair ci, mi is generated:

            • A random t is chosen (0 or 1).
            • zi is calculated according to zi = g(ci-1 - Wt) * Y(-aci-1 - b) mod p.
            • The private key ci is calculated according to H(zi). Here H is (the same) cryptographic hash function. ci is stored for later use.
            • The public key is calculated according to mi = gci mod p.
            • The device provides Alice with the private key (ci) and the public key (mi).

            Note that there are two categories of key exchange processes, MDH1 and MDHi, which will later play an important role in the discussion of timing behavior.

            Evaluation of the posted implementation of the malicious DH variant:
            SETUP (Secretly Embedded Trapdoor with Universal Protection) is not implemented by the implementation of the malicious DH variant posted in the question.
            SETUP establishes a relationship between two consecutive generated key pairs. This makes it possible to derive the private key of the last key generation from two such correlated public keys, which can be intercepted e.g. during the key exchange process.
            But for this, the private key must be passed between successive key generations to use it in the last key generation for establishing this relationship. This does not happen in the implementation, so that the required relationship cannot be achieved.
            From a more technical point of view, the implementation fails mainly because the cases MDH1 and MDHi are not implemented separately but together as a closed process. Closed in the sense that the private key is not stored between successive calls, so it cannot be passed on. Subsequent calls of the implementation therefore generate random key pairs that are not in the required relationship to each other.
            Also note that from the similar time behaviour (only similar, because e.g. the secondary peak is missing, which will be discussed below) of the posted implementation and the implementation used in the papers, of course no working implementation can be concluded.

            A working Python implementation of SETUP or the malicious Diffie-Hellman variant could look like this:

            How to use Diffie Hellman algorithm at the browser?
            Asked 2020-Aug-27 at 01:54

            I want to use nodeJS as a server side language. NodeJS have crypto module where DiffieHellman is a class. So, I can use this method to generate key and compute key.

            But, client also need to create another instance of diffiehellman class. But how to do that? Can I use crypto module on client side? If yes then how, any solution? Here are my client side code...

            Not sure what you're planning to achieve here, but it appears there's such port for browser: https://www.npmjs.com/package/crypto-browserify. createDiffieHellman is on the list of already ported modules. Especially take a look at the example: https://github.com/crypto-browserify/crypto-browserify/tree/master/example. Instead of createHash I believe you could try invoking createDiffieHellman.

            You can get the PID of one of you processes (the parent) and deduce the others using pgrep.

            pgrep has a neat feature --ns which will get you all the processes running in the same PID namespace as a given PID.

            Having that you can get all the child process and convert them to comma separated values and feed them to perf
