- * In order to make certain data synchronously accessible in certain contexts,
- * Haketilo smuggles it in string form in places like cookies, URLs and headers.
- * When using the smuggled data, we first need to make sure it isn't spoofed.
- * For that, we use this pseudo-signing mechanism.
- *
- * Despite what name suggests, no assymetric cryptography is involved, as it
- * would bring no additional benefits and would incur bigger performance
- * overhead. Instead, we hash the string data together with some secret value
- * that is supposed to be known only by this browser instance. Resulting hash
- * sum plays the role of the signature. In the hash we also include current
- * time. This way, even if signed data leaks (which shouldn't happen in the
- * first place), an attacker won't be able to re-use it indefinitely.
- *
- * The secret shared between execution contexts has to be available
- * synchronously. Under Mozilla, this is the extension's per-session id. Under
- * Chromium, this is a dummy web-accessible-resource name that resides in the
- * manifest and is supposed to be constructed by each user using a unique value
- * (this is done automatically by `build.sh').
