Having watched the discussions of recent of the SSL bruting, it occured to me that a variation could also be useful. I understand that setting up RC4 keys is slower that testing for the correct key (I may have misuderstood this bit). As a company using SSL can ahve all it's SSL traffic sniffed, from multiple people accessing, a log can easily be built of message/keys. Is it considered practical to modify the brutessl code to have multiple message data, and test each against a key from allocated key space ? If so, this may mean that perhaps 3 message can be tested against a single in the time two single keys could be tested against one message. An an attack scenario, this is a hell of a lot more "efficient" than current trials have been. I realise this could also be considered a bit of target for the main purpose of demonstrating weaknesses, and improving techiquess. My thoughts, anyway - i hope they make sense. lyal
