11. The details will be published elsewhere. The opaque attack was discussed by C. H. Bennett, Phys. Rev. Lett. 68, 3121 (1992). In short, Eve uses the following attack: she intercepts every photon and measures them with an unorthogonal basis. If she obtains a result, she prepares a fake photon and sends it to Bob. If she does not get a result for her measurement, she simply blocks the photon. This of course results in an increase in loss, and Eve can compensate the loss by replacing the noisy channel with a noiseless channel.
