Re: Intel Security processor + a question
by Tyler Durden 20 Oct '02

20 Oct '02

OK...a follow up question (actually, really the same question in a diferent form). Let's say I had a crypto chip or other encryption engine, the code of which I could not see. Now what if someone had monkeyed with it so that (let's say) the pool of prime numbers it drew from was actually a subset of the real pool that should be available for encryption. Let's also say that "somebody" knows this, and can search byte streams for known strings of products of these primes. They can then break this cypherstream very easily. Meanwhile, someone who doesn't know that the code's been tampered with can try to break the cypherstream using traditional brute force methods, and it will appear that this is a truly hard-encrypted message. Now don't get hung up on the details of what I'm saying here...I don't know if this particular example is possible or not. I'm just wondering iF it is possible to tamper with crypto code (particularly as embedded on a chip) so that it appears to all regular users not to have been tampered with, but meanwhile it allows certain privileged users to access encrypted streams fairly easily. AND if this is possible, is there some way to examine the encrypted output and then, say, search for unusual frequency traces of certain sequences, and determine tha the code has been tampered with? Or are there ways to tamper with good cryptocode in ways that can never be detected with actually looking at the originating code? >From: "Tyler Durden" <camera_lumina(a)hotmail.com> >To: camera_lumina(a)hotmail.com, cypherpunks(a)lne.com >Subject: Intel Security processor + a question >Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2002 11:49:33 -0400 > >Intel is moving Security onto its Network processor chips...a quote also >follows. > >http://www.lightreading.com/document.asp?site=lightreading&doc_id=22749 > > > >(Begin quote) >For now, Intel is tackling very high- and low-end systems.

Finland considering new internet speech restrictions
by Bill Stewart 20 Oct '02

20 Oct '02

>Subject: Fwd: BNA's Internet Law News (ILN) - 10/18/02 > >>FINLAND CONSIDERING NEW INTERNET SPEECH RESTRICTIONS >>Finland is considering establishing changes to its freedom >>of speech laws that focus on the Internet. A proposed bill >>would allow a court to order an online publication to remove >>messages or news items. Moreover, all online publications >>would be required to name an editor-in-chief and would be >>responsible for content posted on the site. >>< http://www.helsinki-hs.net/news.asp?id=20021017IE2 > I had trouble the first time I used the link, but it's also in http://www.helsinki-hs.net/archive.asp dated October 17th. Helsingin Sanomat is published on the web in English. There was a bombing at a mall in Finland last week, with seven people killed, including the suspected bomber, a 19-year-old chemistry student, who frequented a message board "Forum for Home Chemistry". The 17-year-old moderator of the board was arrested for a couple of days, but then released. Some more excerpts from Helsinkin Sanomat: --- The Constitutional Law Committee heard from various internet experts during its meeting on Wednesday. After the meeting, committee Chairwoman Paula Kokkonen was not willing to comment on whether something should be done differently by the committee because of the Myyrmanni incident. The question of whether or not internet chatrooms and message boards are, by definition, publications, is still in the open. Centre Party MP Johannes Leppdnen, a member of the Constitutional Law Committee, commented that it is now necessary to ponder if incidents such as the Myyrmanni bombing could be prevented with more careful monitoring. "However, I hope that a momentary situation is not taken advantage of in a way that would limit some fundamental rights", Leppdnen stated. He also pointed out that the question of internet supervision has not been solved anywhere else either, nor has the question of responsibility for online information. The new law on freedom of speech will not reach a plenary session of Parliament until some time next year. The goal is for the law to take effect next autumn. ---
