Re: SHA-2

I don't know if the revision is official or proposed. I first heard about it in a post to alt.security (I saved the message somewhere) which contained ref's in the federal register. I've seen other implementations that make the same fix. The difference that when the expansion function is performed, it rolls the dword 1 bit left before putting it in the W[] array. --Rob s1018954@aix2.uottawa.ca writes: [..]

Schneier mentioned last year in one of his conference reports that SHA was being revised, yet I couldn't find it in Applied Crypto 2 (I admit that I don't yet own the new one, and I haven't taken a good enough look while browsing it in the bookstores), anyone have any pointers to the new spec?

Please correct me if I am wrong. TIA
