That doesn't sound impossible. What's the anatomy of such a message?
Something like this?
0x4, AES, S2K
(Symmetric-Key Encrypted Session Key Packet)
0x1, Literal Data Packet
(Sym. Encrypted Integrity Protected Data Packet)
20 bytes of SHA-1 on (start-of-plaintext ... start of MDC packet header)
(Modification Detection Code Packet)
Can anyone expand that off the top of their head?
