The fields I've marked above (n, e, d, p, q) refer to the
similarly-named terms in the RSA FAQ description of "how RSA
works" (quoted below). Can someone tell me what the fields
"exponent1", "exponent2" and "coefficient" are, and how they
fit in to the math
Sorry if this is a bit off-topic. I'm looking at the output
of "rsa -text" for an RSA key, and I can't figure out what all
the different fields are:
"n" = modulus
"e" = publicExponent (65537)
"d" = privateExponent
"p" = prime1
"q" = prime2
exponent1
exponent2
coefficient
