Debian gaffe (DSA-1571-1, CVE-2008-016)

The debian gaffe also affects any 'req's or self-signed certs created
on the affected platform.

Unfortunately the blacklists generated by folks are not quite complete
(yet) -- which took me a while to get confirmed and checked for. As a
result of that process - and for your entertainment:

1) Full Moduli for affected keys on Little Endian 32 bit linux with
GCC 4 - defaults:

http://www.webweaving.org/tmp/moduli-run-1.txt.gz

2) Utility to point at a site to check (for just the above, false
positives galore!):

http://www.webweaving.org/tmp/checksite <fqdn>

As the simplified tables are still in the coming form the debian
community - and it is always good to cross check:

- if you run linux (any recent version)

- and if you have a big endian machine

- or a 64 bit machine

- or if you happen to have a strange LE32bit machine.

And a few hours of CPU time on a modern machine.... then could you do
me a favour and fetch:

bhttp://www.webweaving.org/tmp/debian-gaffe.tgz

and run a few keys for me ?

The above shell script fetches openssl, compiles a specific variation
an then (re)creates the 32k possible rsa keys, bcreating a file
containing the Moduli (which can then can be cross checked against the
output of openssl's its -modulus flag - when feed the cert of a random
site).

For those on Little Endian, 32 bit machines - just the first 10 - 50
would be great - unless they differ from the included sample.txt - in
which case I'd be very interested.

As I'd love to a) confirm that the next release of the debian tools is
complete -and- b) I'd like to put to rest concerns I have that the
keyspace is actually larger than expected due to gcc or other
variations.

Thanks,

Dw
