    @49016 How in the hell do you do this, though??

    Why were they dealing with raw private keys anyway, why were they putting them through random weird scripts and then re-importing them into (what seems like) another/their own HSM?

    They must've internally known that they fucked up biiiig time when that happened and then didn't report it. No way _THIS_ didn't get catched?!

    Is this a government job trying to get TLS root private keys maybe? Either that or a paid off employee.

    @manawyrm @49016 I’d like to think that anyone smart enough to exploit weakly generated keys would also be smart enough to reduce the keyspace in a way that isn’t so ridiculous. (Like, only choose from every 16th bit or only from the top and bottom 8 bits, etc. etc. )
