tbqh this eMudhra key leak nonsense is less scary than people really make it out to be. Real targets will never be me and you anyway; the effort is too high and the payoff is far far too low.
OH YOU CAN FORGE CERTIFICATES, GOOD FOR YOU
Can you:
- Hijack BGP announcements to steal my traffic without me or my ISP/provider noticing? (RPKI now protects 70% of internet routes)
- Poison DNS and force my domain to resolve to your server for some subset of users on the internet? (who are you even targeting??)
- Hack my ISP/VPS provider and get on my layer 2?
- Hack my home and get on my layer 2?
