RSA-512 is horribly week, many people (including myself) have cracked it on their own at home.
.... and while I can trivially crack RSA-512 at home ....
That's a very interesting claim considering that the a 512 bit factorization would come in at number 5 on the GNFS records page on
http://xyyxf.at.tut.by/records.html#gnfsIf you can really factor 512 bit numbers trivially, then the project would greatly benefit from your ability.
Please let me know the size and weight of an average matrix for the linear algebra step for your 512-bit factoring program.
I mean we already know how to compromise ECDSA in about 4 billion operations. It's "Just an engineering problem".
Even using the British "billion" = million million, 4 billion operations is less than a 42 bit keyspace. Please outline the attack you have in mind.
