[jira] [Commented] (SSHD-440) Support curve25519-sha256 for KEX and Ed25519 keys

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-440?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15220962#comment-15220962 ] 

Bernd Eckenfels commented on SSHD-440:
--------------------------------------

It is support for Curve25519, I guess this works to implement curve25519-sha256@libssh.org KEX. But for Ed25519 more work is needed. In fact thre seems to be no EdDSA or Schnorr engine yet?

> As an administrator of a production system running with Apache Karaf I want to secure the system as much as possible.
> Based on the following article I would like to use the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange mechanism and Ed25519 keys for the SSH server and client:

> \\
> The probably most stable implementation in pure Java is currently residing in I2P:
> * https://github.com/i2p/i2p.i2p/tree/master/core/java/src/net/i2p/crypto/eddsa
> \\
> ...although it seems to have originated at the following standalone library:
