DDSSEC12 — Encoding of Diffie-Hellman Public Key

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSSEC12-56
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Object Computing, Inc. - OCI ( Mr. Adam Mitz)
  • Summary:

    The HandshakeRequestMessageToken's dh1 property (Table 49) contains a Diffie-Hellman Public Key. The text of Table 49 says that this is encoded as a CDR Big Endian Serialization. However, the data type of the Public Key is neither a CDR Built-In type nor specified in IDL. Thus the encoding is underspecified.
