Critical bug disclosure

Few days ago the guy who found a vulnerability in Blockchain.Info and picked the secret phrase of Nxt genesis account found a security flaw in NRS cryptographic algorithm.

...

I can't explain details of the flaw, coz it's out of my area of expertise. U can contact him directly via nextcoin.org forum.

I'm the guy.  I just created a thread providing more technical details https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,3884.0.html and to answer questions.  I don't really check this forum/thread so posting there is the best way to reach me.

Huge respect to you. I'm gonna send some NXT to your "ransom" account once I'm comfortable running the client. Thank you for this.
