ypublic key

Definition at line 138 of file xed25519.cpp.

◆ GetAlgorithmID()

OID x25519::GetAlgorithmID ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Get the Object Identifier.

Returns
the Object Identifier

The default OID is from RFC 8410 using id-X25519. The default private key format is RFC 5208.

Implements PKCS8PrivateKey.

Definition at line 138 of file xed25519.h.

◆ SetAlgorithmID()

void x25519::SetAlgorithmID ( const OID oid)
inline

Set the Object Identifier.

Parameters
oidthe new Object Identifier

Definition at line 144 of file xed25519.h.

◆ Validate()

bool x25519::Validate ( RandomNumberGenerator rng,
unsigned int  level 
) const
virtual

Check this object for errors.

Parameters
rnga RandomNumberGenerator for objects which use randomized testing
levelthe level of thoroughness
Returns
true if the tests succeed, false otherwise

There are four levels of thoroughness:

  • 0 - using this object won't cause a crash or exception
  • 1 - this object will probably function, and encrypt, sign, other operations correctly
  • 2 - ensure this object will function correctly, and perform reasonable security checks
  • 3 - perform reasonable security checks, and do checks that may take a long time

Level 0 does not require a RandomNumberGenerator. A NullRNG() can be used for level 0. Level 1 may not check for weak keys and such. Levels 2 and 3 are recommended.

◆ GetVoidValue()

bool x25519::GetVoidValue ( const char *  name,

valueTypereference to a variable that receives the value
pValuevoid pointer to a variable that receives the value

GetVoidValue() retrieves the value of name if it exists.

Note
GetVoidValue() is an internal function and should be implemented by derived classes. Users should use one of the other functions instead.

◆ Save() [1/2]

void x25519::Save ( BufferedTransformation bt) const
inlinevirtual

DER encode ASN.1 object.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object

Save() will write the OID associated with algorithm or scheme. In the case of public and private keys, this function writes the subjectPublicKeyInfo parts.

The default OID is from RFC 8410 using id-X25519. The default private key format is RFC 5208, which is the old format. The old format provides the best interop, and keys will work with OpenSSL.

See also
RFC 5958, Asymmetric Key Packages

Reimplemented from CryptoMaterial.

Definition at line 167 of file xed25519.h.

◆ Save() [2/2]

void x25519::Save ( BufferedTransformation bt,
bool  v1 
) const
inline

DER encode ASN.1 object.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object
v1flag indicating v1

Save() will write the OID associated with algorithm or scheme. In the case of public and private keys, this function writes the subjectPublicKeyInfo parts.

The default OID is from RFC 8410 using id-X25519. The default private key format is RFC 5208.

v1 means INTEGER 0 is written. INTEGER 0 means RFC 5208 format, which is the old format. The old format provides the best interop, and keys will work with OpenSSL. The other option uses INTEGER 1. INTEGER 1 means RFC 5958 format, which is the new format.

See also
RFC 5958, Asymmetric Key Packages

Definition at line 186 of file xed25519.h.

◆ Load()

void x25519::Load ( BufferedTransformation bt)
inlinevirtual

Definition at line 166 of file xed25519.cpp.

◆ DEREncode() [1/2]

void x25519::DEREncode ( BufferedTransformation bt) const
inlinevirtual

Encode this object into a BufferedTransformation.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object

Uses Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER)

Reimplemented from PKCS8PrivateKey.

Definition at line 200 of file xed25519.h.

◆ BERDecodePrivateKey()

void x25519::BERDecodePrivateKey ( BufferedTransformation bt,
bool  parametersPresent,
size_t  size 
)
virtual

Decode privateKey part of privateKeyInfo.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object
parametersPresentflag indicating if algorithm parameters are present
sizenumber of octets to read for the parameters, in bytes

BERDecodePrivateKey() the decodes privateKey part of privateKeyInfo, without the OCTET STRING header.

When parametersPresent = true then BERDecodePrivateKey() calls BERDecodeAlgorithmParameters() to parse algorithm parameters.

See also
BERDecodeAlgorithmParameters

Implements PKCS8PrivateKey.

Definition at line 238 of file xed25519.cpp.

◆ DEREncodePrivateKey()

void x25519::DEREncodePrivateKey ( BufferedTransformation bt) const
virtual

Encode privateKey part of privateKeyInfo.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object

DEREncodePrivateKey() encodes the privateKey part of privateKeyInfo, without the OCTET STRING header.

See also
DEREncodeAlgorithmParameters

Implements PKCS8PrivateKey.

Definition at line 259 of file xed25519.cpp.

◆ DEREncode() [2/2]

void x25519::DEREncode ( BufferedTransformation bt,
int  version 
) const

DER encode ASN.1 object.

Parameters
btBufferedTransformation object
versionindicates version

DEREncode() will write the OID associated with algorithm or scheme. In the case of public and private keys, this function writes the subjectPublicKeyInfo parts.

The default OID is from RFC 8410 using id-X25519. The default private key format is RFC 5208.

The value of version is written as the INTEGER. INTEGER 0 means RFC 5208 format, which is the old format. The old format provides the best interop, and keys will work with OpenSSL. The INTEGER 1 means RFC 5958 format, which is the new format.

Definition at line 211 of file xed25519.cpp.

◆ BERDecodeAndCheckAlgorithmID()

void x25519::BERDecodeAndCheckAlgorithmID ( BufferedTransformation bt)

Determine if OID is valid for this object.

BERDecodeAndCheckAlgorithmID() parses the OID from bt and determines if it valid for this object. The problem in practice is there are multiple OIDs available to denote curve25519 operations. The OIDs include an old GNU OID used by SSH, OIDs specified in draft-josefsson-pkix-newcurves, and OIDs specified in draft-ietf-curdle-pkix.

By default BERDecodeAndCheckAlgorithmID() accepts an OID set by the user, ASN1::curve25519() and ASN1::X25519(). ASN1::curve25519() is generic and says "this key is valid for curve25519 operations". ASN1::X25519() is specific and says "this key is valid for x25519 key exchange."

Definition at line 148 of file xed25519.cpp.

)
virtual

Parameters

If a derived class does not override GenerateRandom(), then the base class throws NotImplemented.

Reimplemented from GeneratableCryptoMaterial.
