upstream-zulip/zerver/lib/mobile_auth_otp.py

# Simple one-time-pad library, to be used for encrypting Zulip API
# keys when sending them to the mobile apps via new standard mobile
# authentication flow.  This encryption is used to protect against
# credential-stealing attacks where a malicious app registers the
# zulip:// URL on a device, which might otherwise allow it to hijack a
# user's API key.
#
# The decryption logic here isn't actually used by the flow; we just
# have it here as part of testing the overall library.
