NVD Concedes Inability to Keep Pace with Surging CVE Disclosures in 2025
Security experts warn that recent classification changes obscure the true scope of the NVD backlog as CVE volume hits all-time highs.
A Python module (xtt
) that encapsulates the XTT Trusted
Transit protocol for securing Internet
of Things (IoT) devices.
pip install xtt
The package is published to PyPI for Python 2.7 and 3.3+ for Linux and
OS X. pip
installs all dependencies, including xtt
itself.
import socket
import xtt
# In these examples, we assume the id, certs, and keys needed to run
# an XTT client handshake are available as files.
# Load root certificate, used to authenticate the server
root_id = xtt.CertificateRootId.from_file("root_id.bin")
root_pubkey = xtt.ED25519PublicKey.from_file("root_pub.bin")
# Load the server id
server_id = xtt.Identity.from_file("server_id.bin")
# Load the DAA group information
group_basename = b'BASENAME'
group_gpk = xtt.LRSWGroupPublicKey.from_file("daa_gpk.bin")
group_id = xtt.GroupId(hashlib.sha256(group_gpk.data).digest())
group_cred = xtt.LRSWCredential.from_file("daa_cred.bin")
group_secretkey = xtt.LRSWPrivateKey.from_file("daa_secretkey.bin")
group_ctx = xtt.ClientLRSWGroupContext(group_id, group_secretkey,
group_cred, group_basename)
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM, 0)
sock.connect(('192.0.2.1', 4443))
xtt_sock = xtt.XTTClientSocket(sock,
version = xtt.Version.ONE,
suite_spec = xtt.SuiteSpec.XTT_X25519_LRSW_ED25519_CHACHA20POLY1305_SHA512,
group_ctx, server_id, root_id, root_pubkey)
xtt_sock.start()
my_identity = xtt_sock.identity
my_public_key = xtt_sock.longterm_public_key
my_private_key = xtt_sock.longterm_private_key
