Hi,

thank you very much for your response.
Say someone would be able to gather several clear text AES keys and their
respective asymmetrically encrypted RSA blocks. Would it weakens the
security of the RSA key pair ? I mean could it be easier for someone using
that information to brute force an RSA key pair ?

Thank you
