draft-harris-ssh-rsa-kex-03
Yet another RSA KEX draft has made it into the repository. I hope this
represents the final version of the protocol (apart from moving its name
into the IETF namespace if it becomes an RFC), though probably not of the
document. This version:
1: goes back to using SHA-256 with 2048-bit RSA keys, since SHA-512 is
ludicrously slow.
2: has the server send its host key to the client in SSH_MSG_KEXRSA_PUBKEY
rather than in SSH_MSG_KEXRSA_DONE. This prevents the server
manipulating the exchange hash input by changing its public key.
I hope you like it.
