Original: Eight Bits of Trust: eMudhra's CA keys cracked in milliseconds
Security researcher Scott Helme reports that keys from Indian certificate authority eMudhra could be cracked in milliseconds due to a flaw leaving only around eight bits of real entropy, undermining the trust placed in certificates it issued. The write-up examines how weak key generation at a trusted CA threatens the security of HTTPS connections and what this means for browsers and users relying on that trust.
Why now: A trusted certificate authority with critically weak key generation is a serious security concern affecting web trust.
