📝 Original message:This was one of my concerns when implementing a scheme where you sign a
refund transaction before the original transaction is broadcast. I
originally tried to pass a hash and have the server sign it. However, I
had no way to know that what I was signing wasn't a transaction that was
spending my coins! So I changed the code to require sending the full
transaction, not just the hash. The other way to mitigate this is through
not having any unspent outputs from this key.
For authentication, you could have both a user-generated and
server-generated portion, so that you signed something that clearly had
data from you, so even if the server-data was a hash of $EVIL_DOCUMENT, you
have clear plausible deniability in that your data that is also signed is
"ATTEMPTING LOGIN TO XYZ.COM Hash($EVIL_DOCUMENT)".
