Heyo!

  

(Sorry if this was discussed before as I'm one of the new comers :] )

Shouldn't unauthenticated handshakes be dismissed from the specs?

  

from 8.3. Interactive patterns:

  

Noise_NN():  

  -> e  

  <\- e, dhee  

  

These are plain vulnerable to active MITM attacks, while the idea of using
such protocols is to prevent such attacks.

  

Thanks!

David
