Is this one of those NFTs the kids are talking about?
PGP? Surely you mean GnuPG.
Yeah, you’re right. Who thought that it was a good idea to name two things that mean a similar thing PGP and GPG? It is so easy to use the wrong one…
(Open)PGP is the protocol, GPG is just one application that implements it.
Right. OpenPGP is the protocol. PGP is the original app, which predates the spec.
Did you actually have to acksually this though? Every mom and their cat simply calls it pgp
Those names get really really confusing. I used GPG to use a PGP key. I get mixed up too much.
Green is my pepper! 🫑
Has anyone confirmed that signature? I think it’s not possible to have the signature as a part of the data itself. Kinda chicken egg problem
yea would be interesting. but im also too lazy to type all that text in by hand to verify

Here you go:
(MD5 is not PGP, but impressive nonetheless)
I opened the comment section to ask if it was possible to have an image with its own hash.
Thanks.
It’s using a combination of multicollision attacks against MD5 and sequences of groups of alternate blocks of data representing the alphabet encoded in a way compatible with the file format.
It’s basically <[a+random]/[b+random]/[c+random]…> * (length of message). The random data is crafted by the attack tool so each block has the exact same effect on the MD5 hashing algorithm as it processes each block. You need to decide how many variable blocks you need and where and their encoding in advance. You encode the blocks so the randomness isn’t visible in the final rendered file.
When you have that prepped, you compute the final hash, then at each block position you select the block representing the letter you want (and its associated random data). So then you can select letters matching the actual file hash value.
It only works against hash functions with practical multicollision attacks. Doesn’t work on SHA256 and newer hashes.
*whispers* I stole that signature from cryptostorms warrant canary: https://cryptostorm.is/canary.txt
It might be possible to keep signing with a different key until it matches. But I assume the signature is of the above text.
You can but you need to define what part of the data the signature covers (a signature can’t sign itself, so it must be excluded from the data bundle). Signed PDF files has the signature appended after the document data
I hid something in this image
