Description Pavel Labushev 2011-04-09 19:15:37 UTC

Keys imported with RSA.importKey() won't decrypt/sign correctly if the GMP library is installed. See the upstream bug for details and the fix:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/702835

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ openssl genrsa > private.key 2>/dev/null
2. $ python -c 'from Crypto.PublicKey import RSA; key = RSA.importKey(open("private.key", "rb").read()); print key.verify("asdf", key.sign("asdf", ""))'
3. The printed value should be True instead of False.
Actual Results:  
Printed "False"

Expected Results:  
Expected "True"

You can use dev-python/pycrypto-2.4.1, which has been available in Progress Overlay since 2011-11-05.

This bug is not present in 2.4.1, which i have just added to tree. Just wait for it's stabilization.
