<div class="moz-cite-prefix">It would be hard to discuss about
SM2/SM3 at CABForum level when there's so few analysis and
publications of these algorithms.<br>
<br>
SM2 seems to be a set of asymetric cryptographic primitives
working on ECC, providing signature, key exchange, and
encipherment functions; respectively similar to ECDSA, ECDH, and
maybe ECIES?. There's also a new 256bits prime curve.<br>
SM3 is a hash function, MD design, similar to SHA256 with a few
modifications.<br>
<br>
What could be discussed at CABF level:<br>
- adoption of the new curve, can it be used with ECDSA to sign
certificates/CRLs/OCSP? (then we should also talk about Brainpool
family, ANSSI FRP256v1, Curve25519, and others)<br>
- adoption of SM3 in signatures, with ECDSA? That's a more
difficult question, we don't already agree on what to do with
SHA1, there's little to no analysis of SM3. The team behind SM3
include some people involved in the end of MD4/MD5/RIPEMD in
2004/2005, I guess they know what they're doing, but the algo
still needs to be challenged. If we talk about SM3, we might as
well talk about GOST R34.11-94, GOST R34.11-2012, and maybe a lot
of others...<br>
- adoption of SM2 in signature mode (SM2 part 2)? On which curve,
with which hash algorithm? An even more difficult question;
there's more info about EC-Schnorr or EdDSA than there's about
SM2. Again, other algorithms such as GOST R34.10-2001 or GOST
R34.10-2012 might as well be discussed, and maybe ECKCDSA (Korean)
or ECGDSA (German)<br>
<br>
Before their eventual adoptions, all these algorithms need to
described in english, challenged, correctly parameterized (unlike
the GOST-* things), and identified (OIDs). Adoption is far away in
this process.<br>
<br>
Looking for OIDs led me to

Do really someone in China use 1.2.156.197.1.310 for RSA, or
1.2.156.197.1.411 for SHA256?<br>

<pre wrap="">Yes, this is my topic that SM2 is a China standard algorithm and plan to adapt
in China. It is kind of asymmetric cryptographic algorithm which is based on
elliptic curves cryptography (ECC).
I sent email to Ben that maybe we need to cancel this topic since I can't find
a SM2 specialist to make the speech in the meeting in English. If someone
still have interesting, I can talk some, a little.
And I wish Firefox can support this algorithm that we can do the coding work
for NSS, we can talk about this privately.
Best Regards,
Richard

Can someone explain the "Discussion of SM2 Algorithm" item? What are we
discussing about it? Its technical features and security properties?
When and if browsers and other clients are going to support it? Or something
else?
