Description
to build the offloaded-uploaded (#116), we need the ability to do AES CTR mode at arbitrary places in the input stream. I think a second (optional) argument to aes.AES.process() that accepts a byte offset would do the trick. I'm imagining something like:
def process(self, data, offset=None): if offset is None: offset = self._last_offset block = aes_encrypt(self._key, number_as_string(offset)) output = xor(data, block) self._last_offset = offset + len(data) return output
(with all the appropriate joy of handling block boundaries, of course)
