ECDSA curve used in new protocol has suspicious seed value
...xample,
which does not use an unexplained seed value), so this is mainly a heads-up
and maybe a request to change to any widely accepted curve that might
emerge in the future for that key size.
I don't know enough about ECDSA to give any more input than: The next
largest Koblitz-curve would be sect571k which still has 256 bit strength,
maybe it would be possible to use this one. I'll let people more intimate
with crypto in general, openssl in particular and tinc sort this out
though, since it uses a different finite field (F2^m).
Stay safe and thank you for tinc,
Markus
