Since draft-irtf-cfrg-signature-key-blinding is mature, we may want to reuse some of its definitions and security properties for BL. Adaptations needed:
bf
and BlindSign(skS, bf, msg) to use it: no security impact expected.Allow any 32-byte string as private blind keybk
for P-256, not just scalars modulo Order(), enabling direct use of KEM or hash output: security argument needed. Generalise by keeping DeriveBlindKey(ikm) which is the identity function in this case.Further changes needed to HDK:
salt
.salt
.Suggested HDK interface update:
ctx
, and Descend(salt, ctx), deriving child HDKsalt'
. This enables simple application of BL by both parties.
