"""This file implements the chaffing algorithm.

|
|
Winnowing and chaffing is a technique for enhancing privacy without requiring
|
||
|
|
strong encryption. In short, the technique takes a set of authenticated
|
||
|
|
message blocks (the wheat) and adds a number of chaff blocks which have
|
||
|
|
randomly chosen data and MAC fields. This means that to an adversary, the
|
||
|
|
chaff blocks look as valid as the wheat blocks, and so the authentication
|
||
|
|
would have to be performed on every block. By tailoring the number of chaff
|
||
|
|
blocks added to the message, the sender can make breaking the message
|
||
|
|
computationally infeasible. There are many other interesting properties of
|
||
|
|
the winnow/chaff technique.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, say Alice is sending a message to Bob. She packetizes the
|
||
|
|
message and performs an all-or-nothing transformation on the packets. Then
|
||
|
|
she authenticates each packet with a message authentication code (MAC). The
|
||
|
|
MAC is a hash of the data packet, and there is a secret key which she must
|
||
|
|
share with Bob (key distribution is an exercise left to the reader). She then
|
||
|
|
adds a serial number to each packet, and sends the packets to Bob.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bob receives the packets, and using the shared secret authentication key,
|
||
|
|
authenticates the MACs for each packet. Those packets that have bad MACs are
|
||
|
|
simply discarded. The remainder are sorted by serial number, and passed
|
||
|
|
through the reverse all-or-nothing transform. The transform means that an
|
||
|
|
eavesdropper (say Eve) must acquire all the packets before any of the data can
|
||
|
|
be read. If even one packet is missing, the data is useless.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There's one twist: by adding chaff packets, Alice and Bob can make Eve's job
|
||
|
|
much harder, since Eve now has to break the shared secret key, or try every
|
||
|
|
combination of wheat and chaff packet to read any of the message. The cool
|
||
|
|
thing is that Bob doesn't need to add any additional code; the chaff packets
|
||
|
|
are already filtered out because their MACs don't match (in all likelihood --
|
||
|
|
since the data and MACs for the chaff packets are randomly chosen it is
|
||
|
|
possible, but very unlikely that a chaff MAC will match the chaff data). And
|
||
|
|
Alice need not even be the party adding the chaff! She could be completely
|
||
|
|
unaware that a third party, say Charles, is adding chaff packets to her
|
||
|
|
messages as they are transmitted.
