@ZmnSCPxj:

yes, Wagner is the attack you were thinking of.

And yeah, to avoid it, you should have the 3rd round of MuSig1, i.e. the R =
commitments.

@Tom:
As per above it seems you were more considering MuSig1 here, not MuSig2. At=
 least in this version. So you need the initial commitments to R.

Jonas' reply clearly has covered a lot of what matters here, but I wanted t=
o mention (using your notation):

in s1 =3D c * a1 * x1 + r1, you expressed the idea that the challenge c cou=
ld be given to the server, to construct s1, but since a1 =3D H(L, X1) and L=
 is the serialization of all (in this case, 2) keys, that wouldn't work for=
 blinding the final key, right?
But, is it possible that this addresses the other problem?
If the server is given c1*a1 instead as the challenge for signing (with the=
ir "pure" key x1), then perhaps it avoids the issue? Given what's on the bl=
ockchain ends up allowing calculation of 'c' and the aggregate key a1X1 + a=
2X2, is it the case that you cannot find a1 and therefore you cannot correl=
ate the transaction with just the quantity 'c1*a1' which the server sees?

But I agree with Jonas that this is just the start, i.e. the fundamental re=
quirement of a blind signing scheme is there has to be some guarantee of no=
 'one more forgery' possibility, so presumably there has to be some proof t=
hat the signing request is 'well formed' (Jonas expresses it below as a ZKP=
 of a SHA2 preimage .. it does not seem pretty but I agree that on the face=
 of it, that is what's needed).

@Jonas, Erik:
'posk' is probably meant as 'proof of secret key' which may(?) be a mixup w=
ith what is sometimes referred to in the literature as "KOSK" (iirc they us=
ed it in FROST for example). It isn't clear to me yet how that factors into=
 this scenario, although ofc it is for sure a potential building block of t=
hese constructions.
