(No, not ECDSA)


Anyone aware of this being used: https://www.teletrust.de/fileadmin/files/oid/ecgdsa_final.pdf

Someone here said: t's a funny EC DSA variant over different curves, with less practiced implementations and no TLS cipher name.  It shares DSA's crucial flaw: runtime random number generation whose failure leaks private key bits, not just message bits.

Anyone?
