*** About the supposed factoring of a 4096 bit RSA key ***
---------------------------------------------
tl;dr News about a broken 4096 bit RSA key are not true. It is just a faulty copy of a valid key. Earlier today a blog post claiming the factoring of a 4096 bit RSA key was published and quickly made it to the top of Hacker News. The key in question was the PGP key of a well-known Linux kernel developer. I already commented on Hacker News why this is most likely wrong, but I thought Id write up some more details. To understand what is going on I have to explain some background both on RSA and...
