Original: Eight Bits of Trust: eMudhra's CA keys cracked in milliseconds
Security researcher Scott Helme reports that eMudhra, a certificate authority, generated keys with dangerously low entropy that can be broken in milliseconds. The finding raises questions about the vetting of certificate authorities and the security of certificates issued with weak keys, with the technical community debating how such a lapse in key generation went undetected.
Why now: A newly disclosed weakness in a certificate authority's key generation undermines trust in HTTPS certificates, a topic of high interest to the security community.
