The following errata report has been verified for RFC7539, "ChaCha20 and Poly1305 for IETF Protocols". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7539&eid=4858 -------------------------------------- Status: Verified Type: Technical Reported by: Timm Korte <timm.korte@escrypt.com> Date Reported: 2016-11-10 Verified by: Lars Eggert (IRSG) Section: 2.8. Original Text ------------- 1. The amount of encrypted data possible in a single invocation is 2^32-1 blocks of 64 bytes each, because of the size of the block counter field in the ChaCha20 block function. This gives a total of 247,877,906,880 bytes, or nearly 256 GB. Corrected Text -------------- 1. The amount of encrypted data possible in a single invocation is 2^32-1 blocks of 64 bytes each, because of the size of the block counter field in the ChaCha20 block function. This gives a total of 274,877,906,880 bytes, or nearly 256 GB. Notes ----- There is an error in the result of the P_MAX = ((2^32) - 1) * 64 calculation. The correct value is 2_74_,877,906,880 while the document states 2_47_,877,906,880. This error has already been adopted by multiple implementations as P_MAX value. -------------------------------------- RFC7539 (draft-irtf-cfrg-chacha20-poly1305-10) -------------------------------------- Title : ChaCha20 and Poly1305 for IETF Protocols Publication Date : May 2015 Author(s) : Y.
