Add provider public key well-formedness proof #34

Open pschuermann97 opened 3 years ago

pschuermann97 commented 3 years ago

We omitted the ZKP of the well-formedness of the provider public key in the beginning of the Issue-Join protocol for now. We should add it later (where to do so will be discusseed on May 21, 2021)

@JanBobolz is this covered by using TLS and thus having an authenticated connection?

JanBobolz commented 2 years ago

No, this proof is to force the provider to generate keys honestly (in some sense), not to make sure that the key is being transmitted correctly.

It should not become part of Issue/Join. Rather, I'd recommend adding a Fiat-Shamir proof to the provider public key.
