  • How did LastPass master passwords get compromised?
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Dec 2021
    When I was doing some research into building an app that encrypted data similar to these cloud password managers, I encountered OPAQUE[1] which seems to be the ideal way to perform authentication and securing a master encryption key. It is an asymmetric PAKE that also has a step for providing a salt. This removes the need to do what LastPass does with treating the first hash as a password. There is a great article from Cloudflare on how it works[2], and a working implementation of the spec in rust[3].
