[Qemu-devel] QCOW2 cryptography and secure key handling

[Benoît Canet]

Hi,

I have some budget to improve QCOW2's cryptography.

My main concern is that the QCOW2 image crypto key is passed in clear text.

Do you (the block maintainers) have an idea on how the code could be improved
to securely pass the crypto key to the QCOW2 code ?

Best regards

Benoît
