Expand description

Try to sign the given prehashed message using ECDSA.

This trait is intended to be implemented on a type with access to the secret scalar via &self, such as particular curve’s Scalar type, or potentially a key handle to a hardware device.

Required methods

Try to sign the prehashed message.

Accepts the following arguments:

  • ephemeral_scalar: ECDSA k value. MUST BE UNIFORMLY RANDOM!!!
  • hashed_msg: scalar computed from a hashed message digest to be signed. MUST BE OUTPUT OF A CRYPTOGRAPHICALLY SECURE DIGEST ALGORITHM!!!
