Clients must confirm that the `sender_key` property in the cleartext
`m.room.encrypted` event body, and the `keys.ed25519` property in the
decrypted plaintext, match the keys returned by
[`/keys/query`](#post_matrixclientv3keysquery) for
the given user. Clients must also verify the signature of the keys from the
`/keys/query` response. Without this check, a client cannot be sure that
the sender device owns the private part of the ed25519 key it claims to
have in the Olm payload. This is crucial when the ed25519 key corresponds
to a verified device.
Clients must ensure that the sending device owns the private part of
the ed25519 key it claims to have in the Olm payload. This is crucial
when the ed25519 key corresponds to a verified device. To perform
this check, clients MUST confirm that the `sender_key` property in the
cleartext `m.room.encrypted` event body, and the `keys.ed25519` property
in the decrypted plaintext, match the keys under the `sender_device_keys`
property. Additionally, clients MUST also verify the signature of the keys.
If `sender_device_keys` is absent, clients MUST retrieve the sender's
keys from [`/keys/query`](#post_matrixclientv3keysquery) instead. This
will not allow them to verify key ownership if the sending device was
logged out or had its keys reset since sending the event. Therefore,
clients MUST populate the `sender_device_keys` property when sending
events themselves.
If a client has multiple sessions established with another device, it
should use the session from which it last received and successfully
