@watertech666: Sorry for your loss.  However, neither of your victimized addresses 1 2 appears on my published list nor in johoe's additions to it so neither of your addresses was specifically effected by the repeated signature nonce issue. 

Also, it's clear the thief knows the private key for 1CzAncjXYjtiXNC4CNAw4RoKdQLoi72xn, so you should remove it from your forum signature.  He could steal from either address in the future at any time.


@Aajo: Sorry for your loss as well, but your victimized address is not listed either.

Jesse James. I'm so sad. I lose 263.84btc total from 2 difference address in blockchain.info on 29th Aug. 2013. Details Please check  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/my-wallets-were-stolen-just-now-can-any-one-help-me-277601

Can you help me to check it's because of bug?

Hello, my blockchain.info wallet was cleaned in April - back then there was a wave of stolen coins but only a speculation about the reason having to do with the alias and offline copies.

can someone check my old address / transactions with the script?

Back then I used to do alot of outgoing transactions with Blockchain on Firefox..

I applaud you, Blockchain.info. Great service.

I was referring to the fact that you posted the reply as hyperreal

Try this service
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-wallet-recovery-services-for-forgotten-wallet-password-240779

I've just locked out 7 BTC yesterday while fiddling with blockchain.info app on iPhone. Their database glitch forced to reenter the password, which blanked from my mind after several months of cached usage. I did a mistake by trying too soon, would I have waited for a few hours for service to come up, the cached password/database could still work. I felt this may come some day, just the timing was quite nasty.

What I have left now is AES encrypted blockchain.info wallet, and there's a hope to crack it via dictionary with bits and pieces from my memory. If someone already had an experience with bruteforcing it with speed optimized solutions would you please share the know-how?

Actually I like the blockchain.info, it's so far one of the cleanest services out there for small transactions, just some additional safety net in these cases would be a great thing.

This is quite important information, and it immediately makes me question the security of bitaddress.org generated addresses, anyone with more knowledge about this care to comment?

My account was hacked on Aug 1st.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hacked-266500

Someone was able to empty out my blockchain.info account.

Transaction id here:

I've found no evidence that my email was compromised, and was using two-factor authentication at the time.

How can I determine if this was caused by the rng exploit?  I was using Chrome at the time.

Thanks!

Can someone explain where the source of this issue with the RNG came from?

Was it the RNG in:

1. Blockchain.info's browser plugin code?
2. The Browser's code?  (Firefox, Chrome, etc)
3. The OS itself?  (Windows, OSX, etc)
4. Something else?

Thank you for the clarification.

I reran my script to try to catch the special case you mentioned but oddly was only able to confirm a subset of the ones you reported.

Checking my logic ...

Edit 1: My bad ... I think the discrepancy is caused by my parser ignoring transactions with non-canonical signatures (which stopped being allowed a while ago).  

On an unrelated note I also just checked if there was any overlap between the set of signature r-values and the set of public key x coordinates ... ∅ ... if there were any that would have indicated the potential for more RNG issues.

I don't follow?  My reply simply acknowledged I had overlooked the cases he pointed out.  I deleted it because I thought it prudent to double check his additions first.

Jesse James,

While I appreciate your efforts with this,  I think deleting the reply to johoe is more questionable than the way you replied..

Jesse James, you missed a few addresses:

16mWzkk6iznyJQ3sKQRYxQ1Zr8xWpGMFWi
1B2wqabcETtQxPuacB5whni7GUjDn1oQQX

1Q4VVTsx6vgYth7iD9WnAgHvAj239PMaoL
1rPAkJSXWgnLFEiCzv3APUFLsi8Kzv3pX

Only one of these addresses is very recent.  Maybe my script finds more keys, because I also catch an addresses when the R-value was used only once as long as the same R-value was used on another address twice.

Moreover, the two addresses 1Q8eetJs5wRpqR3b5FT9EHe6GD8Bges9Hm and 195Tycz7nVhV7aKw98nq74FdVYtyYyE1K7 are endangered by this transaction:

I think it is not exploitable but as soon as one of the private keys is revealed, the other is also revealed.

Your friend's private key was never exposed due to a signature nonce collision.

Here's every address that has been exposed from genesis through block 253081 ... obviously only a few of these are due to blockchain.info:

Yep,  that's what I meant.

This information was very helpful.. thank you! It looks like they did something similar to what I'm working on here. I'm warm to your idea of only supporting the window.crypto.getRandomValues browsers for the release version of Coinpunk, or at least warning users that they should upgrade their web browsers.

I wanted to ask you what your thoughts were on my skipping Arcfour (RC4) for window.crypto.getRandomValues. The blockchain.info implementation appears to still use the RC4 code (it uses window.crypto.getRandomValues for the seeding of RC4), but I didn't see why it was necessary here if I can just always get a nice random number from the newer browsers. Is this what you meant by mainlining?

Cheers! And thanks again.

window.crypto.getRandomValues is not available in webworkers because the window object doesn't exist in webworkers (by design).


IMHO, it's worth looking at puik's modifications to bitcoinjs-lib that he's maintaining in his branch ... he's made fixes to the RNG in particular.

Honestly, if I were doing JS crypto my approach would be to just mainline randomness directly from window.crypto.getRandomValues and bail if it's not available.  If you need randomness from the context of a webworker, you have no choice but to message pass it into the worker from the foreground.

I don't have time at the moment to do a comprehensive audit, sorry    ... but javascript honestly isn't really my bag baby so I'm not sure I would be the best person to look at it.
