first party malleation term in consensus and validation #43

Closed adamjonas closed 2 years ago

adamjonas commented 2 years ago

via sipa:

"first party malleation: signature length descriptor is extended to 5 bytes".

"First party malleability" is kind of weird term... the signer doesn't really need to malleate - they can also just create another signature."
