Proposal to include additional cryptographic algorithms in the NTPSec implementation

2025-03-04 Thread Sarath _Msft_ via devel
My colleague Mitchell Schmidt has published a pull request on the ntpsec repo on GitLab, with changes to include support for the previously mentioned GCM/CCM algorithms in ntpd server and client. The code changes are relatively well contained, IMO. I would defer to the pull request for the speci

While I understand you might be looking for buy-in before expending the effort, one idea for moving this forward would be for you/Microsoft to write a patch implementing this. Speaking in generalities and not to this specific issue, it's a lot easier to accept something if there's a clean patch

Hello, I am a software engineer with Microsoft Corporation. I am reaching out with the proposal to extend the list of supported cryptographic algorithms in NTPSec's NTS-NTP implementation. As I understand it, the current NTPSec implementation supports only the AEAD_AES_SIV_CMAC algorithms
