just released liboprf-0.9.3
liboprf is a library implementing the OPRF from rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9497.html and in addition it also provides a threshold variant (tOPRF) and a distributed key generation (DKG) protocol for the tOPRF shared secret, as well as a key update protocol fo…

RFC 9497: Oblivious Pseudorandom Functions (OPRFs) Using Prime-Order Groups
An Oblivious Pseudorandom Function (OPRF) is a two-party protocol between a client and a server for computing the output of a Pseudorandom Function (PRF). The server provides the PRF private key, and the client provides the PRF input. At the end of the protocol, the client learns the PRF output without learning anything about the PRF private key, and the server learns neither the PRF input nor output. An OPRF can also satisfy a notion of 'verifiability', called a VOPRF. A VOPRF ensures …

HTTP has a new method: QUERY. Tl;dr: GET with a body.
ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf
(Doesn’t have an RFC number yet but has been approved, will get one in a few weeks.)

The HTTP QUERY Method
This specification defines the QUERY method for HTTP. A QUERY requests that the request target process the enclosed content in a safe and idempotent manner and then respond with the result of that processing. This is similar to POST requests but can be automatically repeated or restarted without concern for partial state changes.

PSA: Use the "accounturi" feature of Let's Encrypt CAA!
If you're hosting a safety/security-critical service, there's a way too unknown feature called "accounturi", that allows you to restrict TLS certificate issuance to a single Let's Encrypt account (and account private key).
You simply create a CAA record on your domain and put your LE account ID into it.
This means that attackers cannot issue TLS certificates and pull man-in-the-middle…

Certificate Authority Authorization (CAA)
CAA is a type of DNS record that allows site owners to specify which Certificate Authorities (CAs) are allowed to issue certificates containing their domain names. It was first standardized in 2013, and the version we use today was standardized in 2019 by RFC 8659 and RFC 8657. By default, every public CA is allowed to issue certificates for any domain name in the public DNS, provided they validate control of that domain name. That means that if there’s a bug in any one of the many public CAs…

TIL that % routing of email (ie: nelson%example.com@relayserver.com is basically dead and gone. It mostly hasn't worked for years because of spam issues but modern mail systems don't even recognize it. Source routes got deprecated in RFC 2821 (from 2001) and fully removed in RFC 5321 (2008).

After having participated in a few of those I was very happy when I discovered this RFC a few days ago.

RFC: what are the highlights of FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE?
＂In the 15.0-RELEASE announcement email, I list a few highlights. Obviously pkgbase is going to be one of them, but I'm looking for a list of 5 or 6 items, and I don't know what you as users care about the most.
＂So… can you help out your release engineer and tell me what you personally thing is the most exciting change in 15.0?＂
