+ | is 0x255211B2395A5A3E0E48A0F1FAD3EB05E88E8D6D. | ||

- | expired. A new key, 0xEDFFE248ECFACDE3C805906804A40D21DBB89B60, | + | |
- | created and uploaded to https:// | + | |
- | this keyserver. | + | |
- | 3. The new key will be used by persmule | + | a. Due to the previous attacks on OpenPGP keyservers, persmule has published |
- | documents. You can verify | + | the OpenPGP public key to https:// |
- | documents signed by biergaizi and wnereiz for consistency. | + | |
+ | User-ID. But since April 2013, we have developed a workaround, described | ||
+ | below. | ||
- | 4. Due to this key rollover, the October message was not signed by persmule. | + | b. Obtain the dummy public key from any traditional OpenPGP Keyserver, |

- | were valid, and are still valid. | + | fingerprint is 0xEDFFE248ECFACDE3C805906804A40D21DBB89B60. Note that, to |
+ | import | ||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | work. | ||
- | 5. Recent attacks on OpenPGP keyservers have raised great security concerns | + | c. This is a special dummy public key with its User-IDs and subkeys stripped |
- | within the community, as a countermeasure, | + | that we specifically created, leaving |
- | not published to the https:// | + | E-mail address, " |
- | cryptographic information can be obtained from the keyserver, without any | + | |
- | User-ID. Currently, it's impossible to import a OpenPGP public key without | + | |
- | User-ID to a standard GnuPG installation, as a result, it's not possible | + | |
- | for a 3rd-party to verify | + | |
- | 6. We are looking for a solution. But for now, we decided that the best | + | d. Next, with the stub key already imported, obtain the public key from |
- | option is starting publishing new canary documents | + | |
- | As a temporary measure, you can check the canary documents signed by | + | |
- | biergaizi and wnereiz | + | now possible |
- | their own copies, it indicates that the new key has been verified privately | + | |
- | by them as valid. | + | |
- | 7. This effectively reduced | + | e. Use the latest GnuPG in most operating system, the signatures made by |
- | the level of confidence, but currently there is no alternative option yet. | + | persmule' |
+ | other systems should work just fine, but not Fedora. The subkeys contains | ||
+ | signatures made with Brainpool curves, which are disabled on Fedora due to | ||
+ | potential patent-licensing problems, causing a " | ||
+ | error. | ||
- | 8. Once the technical problem of OpenPGP public key without User-ID is | + | 3. To verify vimacs' signature... |
- | resolved, you can check the previous signatures retroactively, | + | |
- | would effectively restore the level of confidence. You can archive | + | |
- | persmule's signature | + | |
- | ensure no data tampering has occured. | + | |
- | 9. Unlike persmule, biergaizi and wnereiz' | + | a. Obtain the public key from any traditional OpenPGP Keyserver, such as |
