Key distribution protocol involves only 2 parties, given E[k1,E(k2,m)]=E[k2, E(k1, m)]

Given an one-key cipher such that:
E[k1,E(k2,m)]=E[k2, E(k1, m)]
Is there any key distribution protocol that involves only two parties (Alice and Bob) without the key distribution center?
The protocol should allow Alice to send a session k… Continue reading Key distribution protocol involves only 2 parties, given E[k1,E(k2,m)]=E[k2, E(k1, m)]
