Relationship with keys + +Certificates are related to public key cryptography by containing a +public key. To be useful, there must be a corresponding private key +somewhere. With OpenSSL, public keys are easily derived from private +keys, so before you create a certificate or a certificate request, you +need to create a private key. + +Private keys are generated with 'openssl genrsa' if you want a RSA +private key, or 'openssl gendsa' if you want a DSA private key. +Further information on how to create private keys can be found in +another HOWTO <keys.txt?>. The rest of this text assumes you have +a private key in the file privkey.pem. + + +3. Creating a certificate request + +To create a certificate, you need to start with a certificate +request (or, as some certificate authorities like to put +it, "certificate signing request", since that's exactly what they do, +they sign it and give you the result back, thus making it authentic +according to their policies). A certificate request can then be sent +to a certificate authority to get it signed into a certificate, or if +you have your own certificate authority, you may sign it yourself, or +if you need a self-signed certificate (because you just want a test +certificate or because you are setting up your own CA). + +The certificate request is created like this: + + openssl req -new -key privkey.pem -out cert.csr + +Now, cert.csr can be sent to the certificate authority, if they can +handle files in PEM format. If not, use the extra argument '-outform' +followed by the keyword for the format to use (see another HOWTO +<formats.txt?>). In some cases, that isn't sufficient and you will +have to be more creative. + +When the certificate authority has then done the checks the need to +do (and probably gotten payment from you), they will hand over your +new certificate to you. + +Section 5 will tell you more on how to handle the certificate you +received. + + +4. Creating a self-signed test certificate + +If you don't want to deal with another certificate authority, or just +want to create a test certificate for yourself.

Depending on your +applications, this may be perfectly OK, it all depends on what they +know how to decode. If not, There are a number of OpenSSL tools to +convert between some (most?) formats. + +So, depending on your application, you may have to convert your +certificate and your key to various formats, most often also putting +them together into one file. The ways to do this is described in +another HOWTO <formats.txt?>, I will just mention the simplest case. +In the case of a raw DER thing in PEM format, and assuming that's all +right for yor applications, simply concatenating the certificate and +the key into a new file and using that one should be enough.

Introduction + +Keys are the basis of public key algorithms and PKI. Keys usually +come in pairs, with one half being the public key and the other half +being the private key.

WARNING + +NONE OF THE CODE PRESENTED HERE HAVE BEEN CHECKED! They are just an +example to show you how things can be done. There may be typos or +type conflicts, and you will have to resolve them. + +1. Introduction + +Proxy certificates are defined in RFC 3820. They are really usual +certificates with the mandatory extension proxyCertInfo. + +Proxy certificates are issued by an End Entity (typically a user), +either directly with the EE certificate as issuing certificate, or by +extension through an already issued proxy certificate.. They are used +to extend rights to some other entity (a computer process, typically, +or sometimes to the user itself), so it can perform operations in the +name of the owner of the EE certificate. + +See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3820.txt for more information. + + +2. A warning about proxy certificates + +Noone seems to have tested proxy certificates with security in mind. +Basically, to this date, it seems that proxy certificates have only +been used in a world that's highly aware of them. What would happen +if an unsuspecting application is to validate a chain of certificates +that contains proxy certificates? It would usually consider the leaf +to be the certificate to check for authorisation data, and since proxy +certificates are controlled by the EE certificate owner alone, it's +would be normal to consider what the EE certificate owner could do +with them. + +subjectAltName and issuerAltName are forbidden in proxy certificates, +and this is enforced in OpenSSL. The subject must be the same as the +issuer, with one commonName added on. + +Possible threats are, as far as has been imagined so far: + + - impersonation through commonName (think server certificates). + - use of additional extensions, possibly non-standard ones used in + certain environments, that would grant extra or different + authorisation rights. + +For this reason, OpenSSL requires that the use of proxy certificates +be explicitely allowed. Currently, this can be done using the +following methods: + + - if the application calls X509_verify_cert() itself, it can do the + following prior to that call (ctx is the pointer passed in the call + to X509_verify_cert()): + + X509_STORE_CTX_set_flags(ctx, X509_V_FLAG_ALLOW_PROXY_CERTS); + + - in all other cases, proxy certificate validation can be enabled + before starting the application by setting the envirnoment variable + OPENSSL_ALLOW_PROXY with some non-empty value. + +There are thoughts to allow proxy certificates with a line in the +default openssl.cnf, but that's still in the future. + + +3. How to create proxy cerificates + +It's quite easy to create proxy certificates, by taking advantage of +the lack of checks of the 'openssl x509' application (*ahem*). But +first, you need to create a configuration section that contains a +definition of the proxyCertInfo extension, a little like this: + + [ v3_proxy ] + # A proxy certificate MUST NEVER be a CA certificate. + basicConstraints=CA:FALSE + + # Usual authority key ID + authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer:always + + # Now, for the extension that marks this certificate as a proxy one + proxyCertInfo=critical,language:id-ppl-anyLanguage,pathlen:1,policy:text:AB + +It's also possible to give the proxy extension in a separate section: + + proxyCertInfo=critical,@proxy_ext + + [ proxy_ext ] + language=id-ppl-anyLanguage + pathlen=0 + policy=text:BC + +The policy value has a specific syntax, {syntag}:{string}, where the +syntag determines what will be done with the string. The recognised +syntags are as follows: + + text indicates that the string is simply the bytes, not + encoded in any kind of way: + + policy=text:räksmörgås + + Previous versions of this design had a specific tag + for UTF-8 text. However, since the bytes are copied + as-is anyway, there's no need for it. Instead, use + the text: tag, like this: + + policy=text:räksmörgÃ¥s + + hex indicates the string is encoded in hex, with colons + between each byte (every second hex digit): + + policy=hex:72:E4:6B:73:6D:F6:72:67:E5:73 + + Previous versions of this design had a tag to insert a + complete DER blob. However, the only legal use for + this would be to surround the bytes that would go with + the hex: tag with what's needed to construct a correct + OCTET STRING. Since hex: does that, the DER tag felt + superfluous, and was therefore removed. + + file indicates that the text of the policy should really be + taken from a file. The string is then really a file + name. This is useful for policies that are large + (more than a few of lines) XML documents, for example. + +The 'policy' setting can be split up in multiple lines like this: + + 0.policy=This is + 1.polisy= a multi- + 2.policy=line policy. + +NOTE: the proxy policy value is the part that determines the rights +granted to the process using the proxy certificate. The value is +completely dependent on the application reading and interpretting it! + +Now that you have created an extension section for your proxy +certificate, you can now easily create a proxy certificate like this: + + openssl req -new -config openssl.cnf \ + -out proxy.req -keyout proxy.key + openssl x509 -req -CAcreateserial -in proxy.req -days 7 \ + -out proxy.crt -CA user.crt -CAkey user.key \ + -extfile openssl.cnf -extensions v3_proxy + +It's just as easy to create a proxy certificate using another proxy +certificate as issuer (note that I'm using a different configuration +section for it): + + openssl req -new -config openssl.cnf \ + -out proxy2.req -keyout proxy2.key + openssl x509 -req -CAcreateserial -in proxy2.req -days 7 \ + -out proxy2.crt -CA proxy.crt -CAkey proxy.key \ + -extfile openssl.cnf -extensions v3_proxy2 + + +4. How to have your application interpret the policy? + +The basic way to interpret proxy policies is to prepare some default +rights, then do a check of the proxy certificate against the a chain +of proxy certificates, user certificate and CA certificates, and see +what rights came out by the end. Sounds easy, huh? It almost is. + +The slightly complicated part is how to pass data between your +application and the certificate validation procedure. + +You need the following ingredients: + + - a callback routing that will be called for every certificate that's + validated. It will be called several times for each certificates, + so you must be attentive to when it's a good time to do the proxy + policy interpretation and check, as well as to fill in the defaults + when the EE certificate is checked. + + - a structure of data that's shared between your application code and + the callback. + + - a wrapper function that sets it all up. + + - an ex_data index function that creates an index into the generic + ex_data store that's attached to an X509 validation context. + +This is some cookbook code for you to fill in: + + /* In this example, I will use a view of granted rights as a bit + array, one bit for each possible right. */ + typedef struct your_rights { + unsigned char rights[total_rights / 8]; + } YOUR_RIGHTS; + + /* The following procedure will create an index for the ex_data + store in the X509 validation context the first time it's called. + Subsequent calls will return the same index. */ + static int get_proxy_auth_ex_data_idx(void) + { + static volatile int idx = -1; + if (idx < 0) + { + CRYPTO_w_lock(CRYPTO_LOCK_X509_STORE); + if (idx < 0) + { + idx = X509_STORE_CTX_get_ex_new_index(0, + "for verify callback", + NULL,NULL,NULL); + } + CRYPTO_w_unlock(CRYPTO_LOCK_X509_STORE); + } + return idx; + } + + /* Callback to be given to the X509 validation procedure. */ + static int verify_callback(int ok, X509_STORE_CTX *ctx) + { + if (ok == 1) /* It's REALLY important you keep the proxy policy + check within this secion.

These +will only be used if neither command line option is present. At +least one of these must be present to generate a CRL. + +=item B<default_md> + +the same as the B<-md> option. The message digest to use. Mandatory. + +=item B<database> + +the text database file to use. Mandatory. This file must be present +though initially it will be empty. + +=item B<unique_subject> + +if the value B<yes> is given, the valid certificate entries in the +database must have unique subjects. if the value B<no> is given, +several valid certificate entries may have the exact same subject. +The default value is B<yes>, to be compatible with older (pre 0.9.8) +versions of OpenSSL. However, to make CA certificate roll-over easier, +it's recommended to use the value B<no>, especially if combined with +the B<-selfsign> command line option. + +=item B<serial> + +a text file containing the next serial number to use in hex. Mandatory. +This file must be present and contain a valid serial number. + +=item B<crlnumber> + +a text file containing the next CRL number to use in hex.

See the B<POLICY FORMAT> section +for more information. + +=item B<name_opt>, B<cert_opt> + +these options allow the format used to display the certificate details +when asking the user to confirm signing.

Use of the old format is B<strongly> discouraged because +it only displays fields mentioned in the B<policy> section, mishandles +multicharacter string types and does not display extensions. + +=item B<copy_extensions> + +determines how extensions in certificate requests should be handled. +If set to B<none> or this option is not present then extensions are +ignored and not copied to the certificate. If set to B<copy> then any +extensions present in the request that are not already present are copied +to the certificate. If set to B<copyall> then all extensions in the +request are copied to the certificate: if the extension is already present +in the certificate it is deleted first. See the B<WARNINGS> section before +using this option. + +The main use of this option is to allow a certificate request to supply +values for certain extensions such as subjectAltName. + +=back + +=head1 POLICY FORMAT + +The policy section consists of a set of variables corresponding to +certificate DN fields. If the value is "match" then the field value +must match the same field in the CA certificate. If the value is +"supplied" then it must be present. If the value is "optional" then +it may be present. Any fields not mentioned in the policy section +are silently deleted, unless the B<-preserveDN> option is set but +this can be regarded more of a quirk than intended behaviour. + +=head1 SPKAC FORMAT + +The input to the B<-spkac> command line option is a Netscape +signed public key and challenge. This will usually come from +the B<KEYGEN> tag in an HTML form to create a new private key. +It is however possible to create SPKACs using the B<spkac> utility. + +The file should contain the variable SPKAC set to the value of +the SPKAC and also the required DN components as name value pairs. +If you need to include the same component twice then it can be +preceded by a number and a '.'. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +Note: these examples assume that the B<ca> directory structure is +already set up and the relevant files already exist. This usually +involves creating a CA certificate and private key with B<req>, a +serial number file and an empty index file and placing them in +the relevant directories. + +To use the sample configuration file below the directories demoCA, +demoCA/private and demoCA/newcerts would be created. The CA +certificate would be copied to demoCA/cacert.pem and its private +key to demoCA/private/cakey.pem.

The scripts B<CA.sh> and +B<CA.pl> help a little but not very much. + +Any fields in a request that are not present in a policy are silently +deleted. This does not happen if the B<-preserveDN> option is used. To +enforce the absence of the EMAIL field within the DN, as suggested by +RFCs, regardless the contents of the request' subject the B<-noemailDN> +option can be used. The behaviour should be more friendly and +configurable. + +Cancelling some commands by refusing to certify a certificate can +create an empty file. + +=head1 WARNINGS + +The B<ca> command is quirky and at times downright unfriendly. + +The B<ca> utility was originally meant as an example of how to do things +in a CA. It was not supposed to be used as a full blown CA itself: +nevertheless some people are using it for this purpose. + +The B<ca> command is effectively a single user command: no locking is +done on the various files and attempts to run more than one B<ca> command +on the same database can have unpredictable results. + +The B<copy_extensions> option should be used with caution. If care is +not taken then it can be a security risk. For example if a certificate +request contains a basicConstraints extension with CA:TRUE and the +B<copy_extensions> value is set to B<copyall> and the user does not spot +this when the certificate is displayed then this will hand the requestor +a valid CA certificate. + +This situation can be avoided by setting B<copy_extensions> to B<copy> +and including basicConstraints with CA:FALSE in the configuration file. +Then if the request contains a basicConstraints extension it will be +ignored. + +It is advisable to also include values for other extensions such +as B<keyUsage> to prevent a request supplying its own values. + +Additional restrictions can be placed on the CA certificate itself. +For example if the CA certificate has: + + basicConstraints = CA:TRUE, pathlen:0 + +then even if a certificate is issued with CA:TRUE it will not be valid. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<req(1)|req(1)>, L<spkac(1)|spkac(1)>, L<x509(1)|x509(1)>, L<CA.pl(1)|CA.pl(1)>, +L<config(5)|config(5)> + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/apps/ciphers.pod b/openssl/doc/apps/ciphers.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..694e433ef --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/apps/ciphers.pod @@ -0,0 +1,434 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +ciphers - SSL cipher display and cipher list tool. + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + +B<openssl> B<ciphers> +[B<-v>] +[B<-ssl2>] +[B<-ssl3>] +[B<-tls1>] +[B<cipherlist>] + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +The B<cipherlist> command converts OpenSSL cipher lists into ordered +SSL cipher preference lists.

OpenSSL CONF library can be used to read configuration files. +It is used for the OpenSSL master configuration file B<openssl.cnf> +and in a few other places like B<SPKAC> files and certificate extension +files for the B<x509> utility. OpenSSL applications can also use the +CONF library for their own purposes. + +A configuration file is divided into a number of sections. Each section +starts with a line B<[ section_name ]> and ends when a new section is +started or end of file is reached. A section name can consist of +alphanumeric characters and underscores. + +The first section of a configuration file is special and is referred +to as the B<default> section this is usually unnamed and is from the +start of file until the first named section. When a name is being looked up +it is first looked up in a named section (if any) and then the +default section. + +The environment is mapped onto a section called B<ENV>. + +Comments can be included by preceding them with the B<#> character + +Each section in a configuration file consists of a number of name and +value pairs of the form B<name=value> + +The B<name> string can contain any alphanumeric characters as well as +a few punctuation symbols such as B<.> B<,> B<;> and B<_>. + +The B<value> string consists of the string following the B<=> character +until end of line with any leading and trailing white space removed. + +The value string undergoes variable expansion. This can be done by +including the form B<$var> or B<${var}>: this will substitute the value +of the named variable in the current section. It is also possible to +substitute a value from another section using the syntax B<$section::name> +or B<${section::name}>. By using the form B<$ENV::name> environment +variables can be substituted. It is also possible to assign values to +environment variables by using the name B<ENV::name>, this will work +if the program looks up environment variables using the B<CONF> library +instead of calling B<getenv()> directly. + +It is possible to escape certain characters by using any kind of quote +or the B<\> character. By making the last character of a line a B<\> +a B<value> string can be spread across multiple lines. In addition +the sequences B<\n>, B<\r>, B<\b> and B<\t> are recognized. + +=head1 OPENSSL LIBRARY CONFIGURATION + +In OpenSSL 0.9.7 and later applications can automatically configure certain +aspects of OpenSSL using the master OpenSSL configuration file, or optionally +an alternative configuration file. The B<openssl> utility includes this +functionality: any sub command uses the master OpenSSL configuration file +unless an option is used in the sub command to use an alternative configuration +file. + +To enable library configuration the default section needs to contain an +appropriate line which points to the main configuration section. The default +name is B<openssl_conf> which is used by the B<openssl> utility. Other +applications may use an alternative name such as B<myapplicaton_conf>. + +The configuration section should consist of a set of name value pairs which +contain specific module configuration information. The B<name> represents +the name of the I<configuration module> the meaning of the B<value> is +module specific: it may, for example, represent a further configuration +section containing configuration module specific information. E.g. + + openssl_conf = openssl_init + + [openssl_init] + + oid_section = new_oids + engines = engine_section + + [new_oids] + + ... new oids here ... + + [engine_section] + + ... engine stuff here ... + +Currently there are two configuration modules. One for ASN1 objects another +for ENGINE configuration. + +=head2 ASN1 OBJECT CONFIGURATION MODULE + +This module has the name B<oid_section>. The value of this variable points +to a section containing name value pairs of OIDs: the name is the OID short +and long name, the value is the numerical form of the OID. Although some of +the B<openssl> utility sub commands already have their own ASN1 OBJECT section +functionality not all do. By using the ASN1 OBJECT configuration module +B<all> the B<openssl> utility sub commands can see the new objects as well +as any compliant applications. For example: + + [new_oids] + + some_new_oid = 1.2.3.4 + some_other_oid = 1.2.3.5 + +In OpenSSL 0.9.8 it is also possible to set the value to the long name followed +by a comma and the numerical OID form. For example: + + shortName = some object long name, 1.2.3.4 + +=head2 ENGINE CONFIGURATION MODULE + +This ENGINE configuration module has the name B<engines>. The value of this +variable points to a section containing further ENGINE configuration +information. + +The section pointed to by B<engines> is a table of engine names (though see +B<engine_id> below) and further sections containing configuration informations +specific to each ENGINE. + +Each ENGINE specific section is used to set default algorithms, load +dynamic, perform initialization and send ctrls. The actual operation performed +depends on the I<command> name which is the name of the name value pair. The +currently supported commands are listed below. + +For example: + + [engine_section] + + # Configure ENGINE named "foo" + foo = foo_section + # Configure ENGINE named "bar" + bar = bar_section + + [foo_section] + ... foo ENGINE specific commands ... + + [bar_section] + ... "bar" ENGINE specific commands ... + +The command B<engine_id> is used to give the ENGINE name. If used this +command must be first. For example: + + [engine_section] + # This would normally handle an ENGINE named "foo" + foo = foo_section + + [foo_section] + # Override default name and use "myfoo" instead. + engine_id = myfoo + +The command B<dynamic_path> loads and adds an ENGINE from the given path. It +is equivalent to sending the ctrls B<SO_PATH> with the path argument followed +by B<LIST_ADD> with value 2 and B<LOAD> to the dynamic ENGINE. If this is +not the required behaviour then alternative ctrls can be sent directly +to the dynamic ENGINE using ctrl commands. + +The command B<init> determines whether to initialize the ENGINE. If the value +is B<0> the ENGINE will not be initialized, if B<1> and attempt it made to +initialized the ENGINE immediately. If the B<init> command is not present +then an attempt will be made to initialize the ENGINE after all commands in +its section have been processed. + +The command B<default_algorithms> sets the default algorithms an ENGINE will +supply using the functions B<ENGINE_set_default_string()> + +If the name matches none of the above command names it is assumed to be a +ctrl command which is sent to the ENGINE. The value of the command is the +argument to the ctrl command. If the value is the string B<EMPTY> then no +value is sent to the command. + +For example: + + + [engine_section] + + # Configure ENGINE named "foo" + foo = foo_section + + [foo_section] + # Load engine from DSO + dynamic_path = /some/path/fooengine.so + # A foo specific ctrl. + some_ctrl = some_value + # Another ctrl that doesn't take a value. + other_ctrl = EMPTY + # Supply all default algorithms + default_algorithms = ALL + +=head1 NOTES + +If a configuration file attempts to expand a variable that doesn't exist +then an error is flagged and the file will not load. This can happen +if an attempt is made to expand an environment variable that doesn't +exist. For example in a previous version of OpenSSL the default OpenSSL +master configuration file used the value of B<HOME> which may not be +defined on non Unix systems and would cause an error. + +This can be worked around by including a B<default> section to provide +a default value: then if the environment lookup fails the default value +will be used instead. For this to work properly the default value must +be defined earlier in the configuration file than the expansion. See +the B<EXAMPLES> section for an example of how to do this. + +If the same variable exists in the same section then all but the last +value will be silently ignored. In certain circumstances such as with +DNs the same field may occur multiple times. This is usually worked +around by ignoring any characters before an initial B<.> e.g. + + 1.OU="My first OU" + 2.OU="My Second OU" + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +Here is a sample configuration file using some of the features +mentioned above. + + # This is the default section. + + HOME=/temp + RANDFILE= ${ENV::HOME}/.rnd + configdir=$ENV::HOME/config + + [ section_one ] + + # We are now in section one. + + # Quotes permit leading and trailing whitespace + any = " any variable name " + + other = A string that can \ + cover several lines \ + by including \\ characters + + message = Hello World\n + + [ section_two ] + + greeting = $section_one::message + +This next example shows how to expand environment variables safely. + +Suppose you want a variable called B<tmpfile> to refer to a +temporary filename. The directory it is placed in can determined by +the the B<TEMP> or B<TMP> environment variables but they may not be +set to any value at all. If you just include the environment variable +names and the variable doesn't exist then this will cause an error when +an attempt is made to load the configuration file. By making use of the +default section both values can be looked up with B<TEMP> taking +priority and B</tmp> used if neither is defined: + + TMP=/tmp + # The above value is used if TMP isn't in the environment + TEMP=$ENV::TMP + # The above value is used if TEMP isn't in the environment + tmpfile=${ENV::TEMP}/tmp.filename + +=head1 BUGS + +Currently there is no way to include characters using the octal B<\nnn> +form. Strings are all null terminated so nulls cannot form part of +the value. + +The escaping isn't quite right: if you want to use sequences like B<\n> +you can't use any quote escaping on the same line. + +Files are loaded in a single pass. This means that an variable expansion +will only work if the variables referenced are defined earlier in the +file. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<x509(1)|x509(1)>, L<req(1)|req(1)>, L<ca(1)|ca(1)> + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/apps/crl.pod b/openssl/doc/apps/crl.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..a40c873b9 --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/apps/crl.pod @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +crl - CRL utility + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + +B<openssl> B<crl> +[B<-inform PEM|DER>] +[B<-outform PEM|DER>] +[B<-text>] +[B<-in filename>] +[B<-out filename>] +[B<-noout>] +[B<-hash>] +[B<-issuer>] +[B<-lastupdate>] +[B<-nextupdate>] +[B<-CAfile file>] +[B<-CApath dir>] + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +The B<crl> command processes CRL files in DER or PEM format. + +=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item B<-inform DER|PEM> + +This specifies the input format.

As a result some PKCS#12 files which triggered this bug +from other implementations (MSIE or Netscape) could not be decrypted +by OpenSSL and similarly OpenSSL could produce PKCS#12 files which could +not be decrypted by other implementations. The chances of producing such +a file are relatively small: less than 1 in 256. + +A side effect of fixing this bug is that any old invalidly encrypted PKCS#12 +files cannot no longer be parsed by the fixed version. Under such circumstances +the B<pkcs12> utility will report that the MAC is OK but fail with a decryption +error when extracting private keys. + +This problem can be resolved by extracting the private keys and certificates +from the PKCS#12 file using an older version of OpenSSL and recreating the PKCS#12 +file from the keys and certificates using a newer version of OpenSSL.

The format +is described in the next section. + +=back + +=head1 DISTINGUISHED NAME AND ATTRIBUTE SECTION FORMAT + +There are two separate formats for the distinguished name and attribute +sections. If the B<prompt> option is set to B<no> then these sections +just consist of field names and values: for example, + + CN=My Name + OU=My Organization + emailAddress=someone@somewhere.org + +This allows external programs (e.g. GUI based) to generate a template file +with all the field names and values and just pass it to B<req>. An example +of this kind of configuration file is contained in the B<EXAMPLES> section. + +Alternatively if the B<prompt> option is absent or not set to B<no> then the +file contains field prompting information. It consists of lines of the form: + + fieldName="prompt" + fieldName_default="default field value" + fieldName_min= 2 + fieldName_max= 4 + +"fieldName" is the field name being used, for example commonName (or CN). +The "prompt" string is used to ask the user to enter the relevant +details. If the user enters nothing then the default value is used if no +default value is present then the field is omitted. A field can +still be omitted if a default value is present if the user just +enters the '.' character. + +The number of characters entered must be between the fieldName_min and +fieldName_max limits: there may be additional restrictions based +on the field being used (for example countryName can only ever be +two characters long and must fit in a PrintableString). + +Some fields (such as organizationName) can be used more than once +in a DN. This presents a problem because configuration files will +not recognize the same name occurring twice. To avoid this problem +if the fieldName contains some characters followed by a full stop +they will be ignored. So for example a second organizationName can +be input by calling it "1.organizationName". + +The actual permitted field names are any object identifier short or +long names. These are compiled into OpenSSL and include the usual +values such as commonName, countryName, localityName, organizationName, +organizationUnitName, stateOrProvinceName.

To connect to an SSL HTTP +server the command: + + openssl s_client -connect servername:443 + +would typically be used (https uses port 443).

In particular you should play with these +options B<before> submitting a bug report to an OpenSSL mailing list. + +A frequent problem when attempting to get client certificates working +is that a web client complains it has no certificates or gives an empty +list to choose from. This is normally because the server is not sending +the clients certificate authority in its "acceptable CA list" when it +requests a certificate. By using B<s_client> the CA list can be viewed +and checked. However some servers only request client authentication +after a specific URL is requested. To obtain the list in this case it +is necessary to use the B<-prexit> option and send an HTTP request +for an appropriate page. + +If a certificate is specified on the command line using the B<-cert> +option it will not be used unless the server specifically requests +a client certificate.

They should +all be in PEM format. + + +=back + +=head1 VERIFY OPERATION + +The B<verify> program uses the same functions as the internal SSL and S/MIME +verification, therefore this description applies to these verify operations +too. + +There is one crucial difference between the verify operations performed +by the B<verify> program: wherever possible an attempt is made to continue +after an error whereas normally the verify operation would halt on the +first error. This allows all the problems with a certificate chain to be +determined. + +The verify operation consists of a number of separate steps. + +Firstly a certificate chain is built up starting from the supplied certificate +and ending in the root CA. It is an error if the whole chain cannot be built +up. The chain is built up by looking up the issuers certificate of the current +certificate. If a certificate is found which is its own issuer it is assumed +to be the root CA. + +The process of 'looking up the issuers certificate' itself involves a number +of steps. In versions of OpenSSL before 0.9.5a the first certificate whose +subject name matched the issuer of the current certificate was assumed to be +the issuers certificate. In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later all certificates +whose subject name matches the issuer name of the current certificate are +subject to further tests. The relevant authority key identifier components +of the current certificate (if present) must match the subject key identifier +(if present) and issuer and serial number of the candidate issuer, in addition +the keyUsage extension of the candidate issuer (if present) must permit +certificate signing. + +The lookup first looks in the list of untrusted certificates and if no match +is found the remaining lookups are from the trusted certificates. The root CA +is always looked up in the trusted certificate list: if the certificate to +verify is a root certificate then an exact match must be found in the trusted +list. + +The second operation is to check every untrusted certificate's extensions for +consistency with the supplied purpose. If the B<-purpose> option is not included +then no checks are done. The supplied or "leaf" certificate must have extensions +compatible with the supplied purpose and all other certificates must also be valid +CA certificates. The precise extensions required are described in more detail in +the B<CERTIFICATE EXTENSIONS> section of the B<x509> utility. + +The third operation is to check the trust settings on the root CA. The root +CA should be trusted for the supplied purpose. For compatibility with previous +versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL a certificate with no trust settings is considered +to be valid for all purposes. + +The final operation is to check the validity of the certificate chain. The validity +period is checked against the current system time and the notBefore and notAfter +dates in the certificate. The certificate signatures are also checked at this +point. + +If all operations complete successfully then certificate is considered valid. If +any operation fails then the certificate is not valid. + +=head1 DIAGNOSTICS + +When a verify operation fails the output messages can be somewhat cryptic. The +general form of the error message is: + + server.pem: /C=AU/ST=Queensland/O=CryptSoft Pty Ltd/CN=Test CA (1024 bit) + error 24 at 1 depth lookup:invalid CA certificate + +The first line contains the name of the certificate being verified followed by +the subject name of the certificate.

By default a trusted certificate must be stored +locally and must be a root CA: any certificate chain ending in this CA +is then usable for any purpose. + +Trust settings currently are only used with a root CA. They allow a finer +control over the purposes the root CA can be used for. For example a CA +may be trusted for SSL client but not SSL server use. + +See the description of the B<verify> utility for more information on the +meaning of trust settings. + +Future versions of OpenSSL will recognize trust settings on any +certificate: not just root CAs. + + +=over 4 + +=item B<-trustout> + +this causes B<x509> to output a B<trusted> certificate. An ordinary +or trusted certificate can be input but by default an ordinary +certificate is output and any trust settings are discarded. With the +B<-trustout> option a trusted certificate is output. A trusted +certificate is automatically output if any trust settings are modified. + +=item B<-setalias arg> + +sets the alias of the certificate. This will allow the certificate +to be referred to using a nickname for example "Steve's Certificate". + +=item B<-alias> + +outputs the certificate alias, if any. + +=item B<-clrtrust> + +clears all the permitted or trusted uses of the certificate. + +=item B<-clrreject> + +clears all the prohibited or rejected uses of the certificate. + +=item B<-addtrust arg> + +adds a trusted certificate use. Any object name can be used here +but currently only B<clientAuth> (SSL client use), B<serverAuth> +(SSL server use) and B<emailProtection> (S/MIME email) are used. +Other OpenSSL applications may define additional uses. + +=item B<-addreject arg> + +adds a prohibited use. It accepts the same values as the B<-addtrust> +option. + +=item B<-purpose> + +this option performs tests on the certificate extensions and outputs +the results. For a more complete description see the B<CERTIFICATE +EXTENSIONS> section. + +=back + +=head2 SIGNING OPTIONS + +The B<x509> utility can be used to sign certificates and requests: it +can thus behave like a "mini CA". + +=over 4 + +=item B<-signkey filename> + +this option causes the input file to be self signed using the supplied +private key. + +If the input file is a certificate it sets the issuer name to the +subject name (i.e. makes it self signed) changes the public key to the +supplied value and changes the start and end dates. The start date is +set to the current time and the end date is set to a value determined +by the B<-days> option. Any certificate extensions are retained unless +the B<-clrext> option is supplied. + +If the input is a certificate request then a self signed certificate +is created using the supplied private key using the subject name in +the request. + +=item B<-clrext> + +delete any extensions from a certificate. This option is used when a +certificate is being created from another certificate (for example with +the B<-signkey> or the B<-CA> options). Normally all extensions are +retained. + +=item B<-keyform PEM|DER> + +specifies the format (DER or PEM) of the private key file used in the +B<-signkey> option. + +=item B<-days arg> + +specifies the number of days to make a certificate valid for. The default +is 30 days. + +=item B<-x509toreq> + +converts a certificate into a certificate request. The B<-signkey> option +is used to pass the required private key. + +=item B<-req> + +by default a certificate is expected on input. With this option a +certificate request is expected instead. + +=item B<-set_serial n> + +specifies the serial number to use. This option can be used with either +the B<-signkey> or B<-CA> options. If used in conjunction with the B<-CA> +option the serial number file (as specified by the B<-CAserial> or +B<-CAcreateserial> options) is not used. + +The serial number can be decimal or hex (if preceded by B<0x>). Negative +serial numbers can also be specified but their use is not recommended. + +=item B<-CA filename> + +specifies the CA certificate to be used for signing. When this option is +present B<x509> behaves like a "mini CA". The input file is signed by this +CA using this option: that is its issuer name is set to the subject name +of the CA and it is digitally signed using the CAs private key. + +This option is normally combined with the B<-req> option. Without the +B<-req> option the input is a certificate which must be self signed. + +=item B<-CAkey filename> + +sets the CA private key to sign a certificate with. If this option is +not specified then it is assumed that the CA private key is present in +the CA certificate file. + +=item B<-CAserial filename> + +sets the CA serial number file to use. + +When the B<-CA> option is used to sign a certificate it uses a serial +number specified in a file. This file consist of one line containing +an even number of hex digits with the serial number to use. After each +use the serial number is incremented and written out to the file again. + +The default filename consists of the CA certificate file base name with +".srl" appended. For example if the CA certificate file is called +"mycacert.pem" it expects to find a serial number file called "mycacert.srl". + +=item B<-CAcreateserial> + +with this option the CA serial number file is created if it does not exist: +it will contain the serial number "02" and the certificate being signed will +have the 1 as its serial number. Normally if the B<-CA> option is specified +and the serial number file does not exist it is an error. + +=item B<-extfile filename> + +file containing certificate extensions to use. If not specified then +no extensions are added to the certificate. + +=item B<-extensions section> + +the section to add certificate extensions from. If this option is not +specified then the extensions should either be contained in the unnamed +(default) section or the default section should contain a variable called +"extensions" which contains the section to use. + +=back + +=head2 NAME OPTIONS + +The B<nameopt> command line switch determines how the subject and issuer +names are displayed. If no B<nameopt> switch is present the default "oneline" +format is used which is compatible with previous versions of OpenSSL. +Each option is described in detail below, all options can be preceded by +a B<-> to turn the option off. Only the first four will normally be used. + +=over 4 + +=item B<compat> + +use the old format. This is equivalent to specifying no name options at all. + +=item B<RFC2253> + +displays names compatible with RFC2253 equivalent to B<esc_2253>, B<esc_ctrl>, +B<esc_msb>, B<utf8>, B<dump_nostr>, B<dump_unknown>, B<dump_der>, +B<sep_comma_plus>, B<dn_rev> and B<sname>. + +=item B<oneline> + +a oneline format which is more readable than RFC2253. It is equivalent to +specifying the B<esc_2253>, B<esc_ctrl>, B<esc_msb>, B<utf8>, B<dump_nostr>, +B<dump_der>, B<use_quote>, B<sep_comma_plus_space>, B<space_eq> and B<sname> +options. + +=item B<multiline> + +a multiline format. It is equivalent B<esc_ctrl>, B<esc_msb>, B<sep_multiline>, +B<space_eq>, B<lname> and B<align>. + +=item B<esc_2253> + +escape the "special" characters required by RFC2253 in a field That is +B<,+"E<lt>E<gt>;>. Additionally B<#> is escaped at the beginning of a string +and a space character at the beginning or end of a string. + +=item B<esc_ctrl> + +escape control characters. That is those with ASCII values less than +0x20 (space) and the delete (0x7f) character. They are escaped using the +RFC2253 \XX notation (where XX are two hex digits representing the +character value). + +=item B<esc_msb> + +escape characters with the MSB set, that is with ASCII values larger than +127. + +=item B<use_quote> + +escapes some characters by surrounding the whole string with B<"> characters, +without the option all escaping is done with the B<\> character. + +=item B<utf8> + +convert all strings to UTF8 format first. This is required by RFC2253. If +you are lucky enough to have a UTF8 compatible terminal then the use +of this option (and B<not> setting B<esc_msb>) may result in the correct +display of multibyte (international) characters. Is this option is not +present then multibyte characters larger than 0xff will be represented +using the format \UXXXX for 16 bits and \WXXXXXXXX for 32 bits. +Also if this option is off any UTF8Strings will be converted to their +character form first. + +=item B<no_type> + +this option does not attempt to interpret multibyte characters in any +way. That is their content octets are merely dumped as though one octet +represents each character. This is useful for diagnostic purposes but +will result in rather odd looking output. + +=item B<show_type> + +show the type of the ASN1 character string. The type precedes the +field contents. For example "BMPSTRING: Hello World". + +=item B<dump_der> + +when this option is set any fields that need to be hexdumped will +be dumped using the DER encoding of the field. Otherwise just the +content octets will be displayed. Both options use the RFC2253 +B<#XXXX...> format. + +=item B<dump_nostr> + +dump non character string types (for example OCTET STRING) if this +option is not set then non character string types will be displayed +as though each content octet represents a single character. + +=item B<dump_all> + +dump all fields. This option when used with B<dump_der> allows the +DER encoding of the structure to be unambiguously determined. + +=item B<dump_unknown> + +dump any field whose OID is not recognised by OpenSSL. + +=item B<sep_comma_plus>, B<sep_comma_plus_space>, B<sep_semi_plus_space>, +B<sep_multiline> + +these options determine the field separators. The first character is +between RDNs and the second between multiple AVAs (multiple AVAs are +very rare and their use is discouraged). The options ending in +"space" additionally place a space after the separator to make it +more readable. The B<sep_multiline> uses a linefeed character for +the RDN separator and a spaced B<+> for the AVA separator. It also +indents the fields by four characters. + +=item B<dn_rev> + +reverse the fields of the DN. This is required by RFC2253. As a side +effect this also reverses the order of multiple AVAs but this is +permissible. + +=item B<nofname>, B<sname>, B<lname>, B<oid> + +these options alter how the field name is displayed. B<nofname> does +not display the field at all. B<sname> uses the "short name" form +(CN for commonName for example). B<lname> uses the long form. +B<oid> represents the OID in numerical form and is useful for +diagnostic purpose. + +=item B<align> + +align field values for a more readable output. Only usable with +B<sep_multiline>. + +=item B<space_eq> + +places spaces round the B<=> character which follows the field +name. + +=back + +=head2 TEXT OPTIONS + +As well as customising the name output format, it is also possible to +customise the actual fields printed using the B<certopt> options when +the B<text> option is present. The default behaviour is to print all fields. + +=over 4 + +=item B<compatible> + +use the old format.

Because of the nature of message +digests the fingerprint of a certificate is unique to that certificate and +two certificates with the same fingerprint can be considered to be the same. + +The Netscape fingerprint uses MD5 whereas MSIE uses SHA1. + +The B<-email> option searches the subject name and the subject alternative +name extension. Only unique email addresses will be printed out: it will +not print the same address more than once. + +=head1 CERTIFICATE EXTENSIONS + +The B<-purpose> option checks the certificate extensions and determines +what the certificate can be used for. The actual checks done are rather +complex and include various hacks and workarounds to handle broken +certificates and software. + +The same code is used when verifying untrusted certificates in chains +so this section is useful if a chain is rejected by the verify code. + +The basicConstraints extension CA flag is used to determine whether the +certificate can be used as a CA. If the CA flag is true then it is a CA, +if the CA flag is false then it is not a CA. B<All> CAs should have the +CA flag set to true. + +If the basicConstraints extension is absent then the certificate is +considered to be a "possible CA" other extensions are checked according +to the intended use of the certificate. A warning is given in this case +because the certificate should really not be regarded as a CA: however +it is allowed to be a CA to work around some broken software. + +If the certificate is a V1 certificate (and thus has no extensions) and +it is self signed it is also assumed to be a CA but a warning is again +given: this is to work around the problem of Verisign roots which are V1 +self signed certificates. + +If the keyUsage extension is present then additional restraints are +made on the uses of the certificate. A CA certificate B<must> have the +keyCertSign bit set if the keyUsage extension is present. + +The extended key usage extension places additional restrictions on the +certificate uses. If this extension is present (whether critical or not) +the key can only be used for the purposes specified. + +A complete description of each test is given below.

Netscape certificate type must be absent or should have the +S/MIME bit set.

Each line of the extension section takes the form: + + extension_name=[critical,] extension_options + +If B<critical> is present then the extension will be critical. + +The format of B<extension_options> depends on the value of B<extension_name>. + +There are four main types of extension: I<string> extensions, I<multi-valued> +extensions, I<raw> and I<arbitrary> extensions. + +String extensions simply have a string which contains either the value itself +or how it is obtained. + +For example: + + nsComment="This is a Comment" + +Multi-valued extensions have a short form and a long form. The short form +is a list of names and values: + + basicConstraints=critical,CA:true,pathlen:1 + +The long form allows the values to be placed in a separate section: + + basicConstraints=critical,@bs_section + + [bs_section] + + CA=true + pathlen=1 + +Both forms are equivalent. + +The syntax of raw extensions is governed by the extension code: it can +for example contain data in multiple sections. The correct syntax to +use is defined by the extension code itself: check out the certificate +policies extension for an example. + +If an extension type is unsupported then the I<arbitrary> extension syntax +must be used, see the L<ARBITRART EXTENSIONS|/"ARBITRARY EXTENSIONS"> section for more details. + +=head1 STANDARD EXTENSIONS + +The following sections describe each supported extension in detail. + +=head2 Basic Constraints. + +This is a multi valued extension which indicates whether a certificate is +a CA certificate. The first (mandatory) name is B<CA> followed by B<TRUE> or +B<FALSE>. If B<CA> is B<TRUE> then an optional B<pathlen> name followed by an +non-negative value can be included. + +For example: + + basicConstraints=CA:TRUE + + basicConstraints=CA:FALSE + + basicConstraints=critical,CA:TRUE, pathlen:0 + +A CA certificate B<must> include the basicConstraints value with the CA field +set to TRUE. An end user certificate must either set CA to FALSE or exclude the +extension entirely. Some software may require the inclusion of basicConstraints +with CA set to FALSE for end entity certificates. + +The pathlen parameter indicates the maximum number of CAs that can appear +below this one in a chain. So if you have a CA with a pathlen of zero it can +only be used to sign end user certificates and not further CAs. + + +=head2 Key Usage. + +Key usage is a multi valued extension consisting of a list of names of the +permitted key usages. + +The supporte names are: digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, +dataEncipherment, keyAgreement, keyCertSign, cRLSign, encipherOnly +and decipherOnly. + +Examples: + + keyUsage=digitalSignature, nonRepudiation + + keyUsage=critical, keyCertSign + + +=head2 Extended Key Usage. + +This extensions consists of a list of usages indicating purposes for which +the certificate public key can be used for, + +These can either be object short names of the dotted numerical form of OIDs. +While any OID can be used only certain values make sense. In particular the +following PKIX, NS and MS values are meaningful: + + Value Meaning + ----- ------- + serverAuth SSL/TLS Web Server Authentication. + clientAuth SSL/TLS Web Client Authentication. + codeSigning Code signing. + emailProtection E-mail Protection (S/MIME). + timeStamping Trusted Timestamping + msCodeInd Microsoft Individual Code Signing (authenticode) + msCodeCom Microsoft Commercial Code Signing (authenticode) + msCTLSign Microsoft Trust List Signing + msSGC Microsoft Server Gated Crypto + msEFS Microsoft Encrypted File System + nsSGC Netscape Server Gated Crypto + +Examples: + + extendedKeyUsage=critical,codeSigning,1.2.3.4 + extendedKeyUsage=nsSGC,msSGC + + +=head2 Subject Key Identifier. + +This is really a string extension and can take two possible values. Either +the word B<hash> which will automatically follow the guidelines in RFC3280 +or a hex string giving the extension value to include. The use of the hex +string is strongly discouraged. + +Example: + + subjectKeyIdentifier=hash + + +=head2 Authority Key Identifier. + +The authority key identifier extension permits two options. keyid and issuer: +both can take the optional value "always". + +If the keyid option is present an attempt is made to copy the subject key +identifier from the parent certificate. If the value "always" is present +then an error is returned if the option fails. + +The issuer option copies the issuer and serial number from the issuer +certificate. This will only be done if the keyid option fails or +is not included unless the "always" flag will always include the value. + +Example: + + authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer + + +=head2 Subject Alternative Name. + +The subject alternative name extension allows various literal values to be +included in the configuration file. These include B<email> (an email address) +B<URI> a uniform resource indicator, B<DNS> (a DNS domain name), B<RID> (a +registered ID: OBJECT IDENTIFIER), B<IP> (an IP address), B<dirName> +(a distinguished name) and otherName. + +The email option include a special 'copy' value. This will automatically +include and email addresses contained in the certificate subject name in +the extension. + +The IP address used in the B<IP> options can be in either IPv4 or IPv6 format. + +The value of B<dirName> should point to a section containing the distinguished +name to use as a set of name value pairs. Multi values AVAs can be formed by +preceeding the name with a B<+> character. + +otherName can include arbitrary data associated with an OID: the value +should be the OID followed by a semicolon and the content in standard +ASN1_generate_nconf() format. + +Examples: + + subjectAltName=email:copy,email:my@other.address,URI:http://my.url.here/ + subjectAltName=IP:192.168.7.1 + subjectAltName=IP:13::17 + subjectAltName=email:my@other.address,RID:1.2.3.4 + subjectAltName=otherName:1.2.3.4;UTF8:some other identifier + + subjectAltName=dirName:dir_sect + + [dir_sect] + C=UK + O=My Organization + OU=My Unit + CN=My Name + + +=head2 Issuer Alternative Name. + +The issuer alternative name option supports all the literal options of +subject alternative name. It does B<not> support the email:copy option because +that would not make sense. It does support an additional issuer:copy option +that will copy all the subject alternative name values from the issuer +certificate (if possible). + +Example: + + issuserAltName = issuer:copy + + +=head2 Authority Info Access. + +The authority information access extension gives details about how to access +certain information relating to the CA. Its syntax is accessOID;location +where I<location> has the same syntax as subject alternative name (except +that email:copy is not supported). accessOID can be any valid OID but only +certain values are meaningful, for example OCSP and caIssuers. + +Example: + + authorityInfoAccess = OCSP;URI:http://ocsp.my.host/ + authorityInfoAccess = caIssuers;URI:http://my.ca/ca.html + + +=head2 CRL distribution points. + +This is a multi-valued extension that supports all the literal options of +subject alternative name. Of the few software packages that currently interpret +this extension most only interpret the URI option. + +Currently each option will set a new DistributionPoint with the fullName +field set to the given value. + +Other fields like cRLissuer and reasons cannot currently be set or displayed: +at this time no examples were available that used these fields. + +Examples: + + crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://myhost.com/myca.crl + crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://my.com/my.crl,URI:http://oth.com/my.crl + +=head2 Certificate Policies. + +This is a I<raw> extension. All the fields of this extension can be set by +using the appropriate syntax. + +If you follow the PKIX recommendations and just using one OID then you just +include the value of that OID. Multiple OIDs can be set separated by commas, +for example: + + certificatePolicies= 1.2.4.5, 1.1.3.4 + +If you wish to include qualifiers then the policy OID and qualifiers need to +be specified in a separate section: this is done by using the @section syntax +instead of a literal OID value. + +The section referred to must include the policy OID using the name +policyIdentifier, cPSuri qualifiers can be included using the syntax: + + CPS.nnn=value + +userNotice qualifiers can be set using the syntax: + + userNotice.nnn=@notice + +The value of the userNotice qualifier is specified in the relevant section. +This section can include explicitText, organization and noticeNumbers +options. explicitText and organization are text strings, noticeNumbers is a +comma separated list of numbers. The organization and noticeNumbers options +(if included) must BOTH be present. If you use the userNotice option with IE5 +then you need the 'ia5org' option at the top level to modify the encoding: +otherwise it will not be interpreted properly. + +Example: + + certificatePolicies=ia5org,1.2.3.4,1.5.6.7.8,@polsect + + [polsect] + + policyIdentifier = 1.3.5.8 + CPS.1="http://my.host.name/" + CPS.2="http://my.your.name/" + userNotice.1=@notice + + [notice] + + explicitText="Explicit Text Here" + organization="Organisation Name" + noticeNumbers=1,2,3,4 + +The B<ia5org> option changes the type of the I<organization> field. In RFC2459 +it can only be of type DisplayText. In RFC3280 IA5Strring is also permissible. +Some software (for example some versions of MSIE) may require ia5org. + +=head2 Policy Constraints + +This is a multi-valued extension which consisting of the names +B<requireExplicitPolicy> or B<inhibitPolicyMapping> and a non negative intger +value. At least one component must be present. + +Example: + + policyConstraints = requireExplicitPolicy:3 + + +=head2 Inhibit Any Policy + +This is a string extension whose value must be a non negative integer. + +Example: + + inhibitAnyPolicy = 2 + + +=head2 Name Constraints + +The name constraints extension is a multi-valued extension. The name should +begin with the word B<permitted> or B<excluded> followed by a B<;>. The rest of +the name and the value follows the syntax of subjectAltName except email:copy +is not supported and the B<IP> form should consist of an IP addresses and +subnet mask separated by a B</>. + +Examples: + + nameConstraints=permitted;IP:192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 + + nameConstraints=permitted;email:.somedomain.com + + nameConstraints=excluded;email:.com + +=head1 DEPRECATED EXTENSIONS + +The following extensions are non standard, Netscape specific and largely +obsolete. Their use in new applications is discouraged. + +=head2 Netscape String extensions. + +Netscape Comment (B<nsComment>) is a string extension containing a comment +which will be displayed when the certificate is viewed in some browsers. + +Example: + + nsComment = "Some Random Comment" + +Other supported extensions in this category are: B<nsBaseUrl>, +B<nsRevocationUrl>, B<nsCaRevocationUrl>, B<nsRenewalUrl>, B<nsCaPolicyUrl> +and B<nsSslServerName>. + + +=head2 Netscape Certificate Type + +This is a multi-valued extensions which consists of a list of flags to be +included. It was used to indicate the purposes for which a certificate could +be used. The basicConstraints, keyUsage and extended key usage extensions are +now used instead. + +Acceptable values for nsCertType are: B<client>, B<server>, B<email>, +B<objsign>, B<reserved>, B<sslCA>, B<emailCA>, B<objCA>. + + +=head1 ARBITRARY EXTENSIONS + +If an extension is not supported by the OpenSSL code then it must be encoded +using the arbitrary extension format. It is also possible to use the arbitrary +format for supported extensions. Extreme care should be taken to ensure that +the data is formatted correctly for the given extension type. + +There are two ways to encode arbitrary extensions. + +The first way is to use the word ASN1 followed by the extension content +using the same syntax as ASN1_generate_nconf(). For example: + + 1.2.3.4=critical,ASN1:UTF8String:Some random data + + 1.2.3.4=ASN1:SEQUENCE:seq_sect + + [seq_sect] + + field1 = UTF8:field1 + field2 = UTF8:field2 + +It is also possible to use the word DER to include the raw encoded data in any +extension. + + 1.2.3.4=critical,DER:01:02:03:04 + 1.2.3.4=DER:01020304 + +The value following DER is a hex dump of the DER encoding of the extension +Any extension can be placed in this form to override the default behaviour. +For example: + + basicConstraints=critical,DER:00:01:02:03 + +=head1 WARNING + +There is no guarantee that a specific implementation will process a given +extension. It may therefore be sometimes possible to use certificates for +purposes prohibited by their extensions because a specific application does +not recognize or honour the values of the relevant extensions. + +The DER and ASN1 options should be used with caution. It is possible to create +totally invalid extensions if they are not used carefully. + + +=head1 NOTES + +If an extension is multi-value and a field value must contain a comma the long +form must be used otherwise the comma would be misinterpreted as a field +separator. For example: + + subjectAltName=URI:ldap://somehost.com/CN=foo,OU=bar + +will produce an error but the equivalent form: + + subjectAltName=@subject_alt_section + + [subject_alt_section] + subjectAltName=URI:ldap://somehost.com/CN=foo,OU=bar + +is valid. + +Due to the behaviour of the OpenSSL B<conf> library the same field name +can only occur once in a section. This means that: + + subjectAltName=@alt_section + + [alt_section] + + email=steve@here + email=steve@there + +will only recognize the last value. This can be worked around by using the form: + + [alt_section] + + email.1=steve@here + email.2=steve@there + +=head1 HISTORY + +The X509v3 extension code was first added to OpenSSL 0.9.2. + +Policy mappings, inhibit any policy and name constraints support was added in +OpenSSL 0.9.8 + +The B<directoryName> and B<otherName> option as well as the B<ASN1> option +for arbitrary extensions was added in OpenSSL 0.9.8 + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<req(1)|req(1)>, L<ca(1)|ca(1)>, L<x509(1)|x509(1)> + + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/c-indentation.el b/openssl/doc/c-indentation.el new file mode 100644 index 000000000..90861d397 --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/c-indentation.el @@ -0,0 +1,45 @@ +; This Emacs Lisp file defines a C indentation style that closely +; follows most aspects of the one that is used throughout SSLeay, +; and hence in OpenSSL. +; +; This definition is for the "CC mode" package, which is the default +; mode for editing C source files in Emacs 20, not for the older +; c-mode.el (which was the default in less recent releaes of Emacs 19). +; +; Copy the definition in your .emacs file or use M-x eval-buffer. +; To activate this indentation style, visit a C file, type +; M-x c-set-style <RET> (or C-c . for short), and enter "eay". +; To toggle the auto-newline feature of CC mode, type C-c C-a. +; +; Apparently statement blocks that are not introduced by a statement +; such as "if" and that are not the body of a function cannot +; be handled too well by CC mode with this indentation style, +; so you have to indent them manually (you can use C-q tab). +; +; For suggesting improvements, please send e-mail to bodo@openssl.org. + +(c-add-style "eay" + '((c-basic-offset . 8) + (indent-tabs-mode . t) + (c-comment-only-line-offset . 0) + (c-hanging-braces-alist) + (c-offsets-alist .

It returns 1 +if the connection was established successfully. A zero or negative +value is returned if the connection could not be established, the +call BIO_should_retry() should be used for non blocking connect BIOs +to determine if the call should be retried. If an SSL connection has +already been established this call has no effect. + +=head1 NOTES + +SSL BIOs are exceptional in that if the underlying transport +is non blocking they can still request a retry in exceptional +circumstances. Specifically this will happen if a session +renegotiation takes place during a BIO_read() operation, one +case where this happens is when SGC or step up occurs. + +In OpenSSL 0.9.6 and later the SSL flag SSL_AUTO_RETRY can be +set to disable this behaviour.

When an accept +BIO is not at then end of a chain it passes I/O calls to the next +BIO in the chain. + +When a connection is established a new socket BIO is created for +the connection and appended to the chain. That is the chain is now +accept->socket. This effectively means that attempting I/O on +an initial accept socket will await an incoming connection then +perform I/O on it. + +If any additional BIOs have been set using BIO_set_accept_bios() +then they are placed between the socket and the accept BIO, +that is the chain will be accept->otherbios->socket. + +If a server wishes to process multiple connections (as is normally +the case) then the accept BIO must be made available for further +incoming connections. This can be done by waiting for a connection and +then calling: + + connection = BIO_pop(accept); + +After this call B<connection> will contain a BIO for the recently +established connection and B<accept> will now be a single BIO +again which can be used to await further incoming connections. +If no further connections will be accepted the B<accept> can +be freed using BIO_free(). + +If only a single connection will be processed it is possible to +perform I/O using the accept BIO itself.

A BIO pair is a pair of source/sink +BIOs where data written to either half of the pair is buffered and can be read from +the other half. Both halves must usually by handled by the same application thread +since no locking is done on the internal data structures. + +Since BIO chains typically end in a source/sink BIO it is possible to make this +one half of a BIO pair and have all the data processed by the chain under application +control. + +One typical use of BIO pairs is to place TLS/SSL I/O under application control, this +can be used when the application wishes to use a non standard transport for +TLS/SSL or the normal socket routines are inappropriate. + +Calls to BIO_read() will read data from the buffer or request a retry if no +data is available. + +Calls to BIO_write() will place data in the buffer or request a retry if the +buffer is full. + +The standard calls BIO_ctrl_pending() and BIO_ctrl_wpending() can be used to +determine the amount of pending data in the read or write buffer. + +BIO_reset() clears any data in the write buffer. + +BIO_make_bio_pair() joins two separate BIOs into a connected pair. + +BIO_destroy_pair() destroys the association between two connected BIOs. Freeing +up any half of the pair will automatically destroy the association. + +BIO_shutdown_wr() is used to close down a BIO B<b>. After this call no further +writes on BIO B<b> are allowed (they will return an error). Reads on the other +half of the pair will return any pending data or EOF when all pending data has +been read. + +BIO_set_write_buf_size() sets the write buffer size of BIO B<b> to B<size>. +If the size is not initialized a default value is used. This is currently +17K, sufficient for a maximum size TLS record. + +BIO_get_write_buf_size() returns the size of the write buffer. + +BIO_new_bio_pair() combines the calls to BIO_new(), BIO_make_bio_pair() and +BIO_set_write_buf_size() to create a connected pair of BIOs B<bio1>, B<bio2> +with write buffer sizes B<writebuf1> and B<writebuf2>. If either size is +zero then the default size is used. BIO_new_bio_pair() does not check whether +B<bio1> or B<bio2> do point to some other BIO, the values are overwritten, +BIO_free() is not called. + +BIO_get_write_guarantee() and BIO_ctrl_get_write_guarantee() return the maximum +length of data that can be currently written to the BIO. Writes larger than this +value will return a value from BIO_write() less than the amount requested or if the +buffer is full request a retry. BIO_ctrl_get_write_guarantee() is a function +whereas BIO_get_write_guarantee() is a macro. + +BIO_get_read_request() and BIO_ctrl_get_read_request() return the +amount of data requested, or the buffer size if it is less, if the +last read attempt at the other half of the BIO pair failed due to an +empty buffer. This can be used to determine how much data should be +written to the BIO so the next read will succeed: this is most useful +in TLS/SSL applications where the amount of data read is usually +meaningful rather than just a buffer size. After a successful read +this call will return zero. It also will return zero once new data +has been written satisfying the read request or part of it. +Note that BIO_get_read_request() never returns an amount larger +than that returned by BIO_get_write_guarantee(). + +BIO_ctrl_reset_read_request() can also be used to reset the value returned by +BIO_get_read_request() to zero. + +=head1 NOTES + +Both halves of a BIO pair should be freed. That is even if one half is implicit +freed due to a BIO_free_all() or SSL_free() call the other half needs to be freed. + +When used in bidirectional applications (such as TLS/SSL) care should be taken to +flush any data in the write buffer. This can be done by calling BIO_pending() +on the other half of the pair and, if any data is pending, reading it and sending +it to the underlying transport. This must be done before any normal processing +(such as calling select() ) due to a request and BIO_should_read() being true. + +To see why this is important consider a case where a request is sent using +BIO_write() and a response read with BIO_read(), this can occur during an +TLS/SSL handshake for example. BIO_write() will succeed and place data in the write +buffer. BIO_read() will initially fail and BIO_should_read() will be true. If +the application then waits for data to be available on the underlying transport +before flushing the write buffer it will never succeed because the request was +never sent! + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +BIO_new_bio_pair() returns 1 on success, with the new BIOs available in +B<bio1> and B<bio2>, or 0 on failure, with NULL pointers stored into the +locations for B<bio1> and B<bio2>. Check the error stack for more information. + +[XXXXX: More return values need to be added here] + +=head1 EXAMPLE + +The BIO pair can be used to have full control over the network access of an +application.

The call to BIO_set_nbio() +should be made before the connection is established because +non blocking I/O is set during the connect process. + +BIO_new_connect() combines BIO_new() and BIO_set_conn_hostname() into +a single call: that is it creates a new connect BIO with B<name>. + +BIO_do_connect() attempts to connect the supplied BIO.

How +this is done depends on the underlying I/O structure. + +For example if the cause is ultimately a socket and BIO_should_read() +is true then a call to select() may be made to wait until data is +available and then retry the BIO operation. By combining the retry +conditions of several non blocking BIOs in a single select() call +it is possible to service several BIOs in a single thread, though +the performance may be poor if SSL BIOs are present because long delays +can occur during the initial handshake process. + +It is possible for a BIO to block indefinitely if the underlying I/O +structure cannot process or return any data.

B<NB>: This is true only whilst no ENGINE has +been set as a default for DSA, so this function is no longer recommended. + +DSA_get_default_method() returns a pointer to the current default +DSA_METHOD. However, the meaningfulness of this result is dependent on +whether the ENGINE API is being used, so this function is no longer +recommended. + +DSA_set_method() selects B<meth> to perform all operations using the key +B<rsa>. This will replace the DSA_METHOD used by the DSA key and if the +previous method was supplied by an ENGINE, the handle to that ENGINE will +be released during the change. It is possible to have DSA keys that only +work with certain DSA_METHOD implementations (eg. from an ENGINE module +that supports embedded hardware-protected keys), and in such cases +attempting to change the DSA_METHOD for the key can have unexpected +results. + +DSA_new_method() allocates and initializes a DSA structure so that B<engine> +will be used for the DSA operations. If B<engine> is NULL, the default engine +for DSA operations is used, and if no default ENGINE is set, the DSA_METHOD +controlled by DSA_set_default_method() is used. + +=head1 THE DSA_METHOD STRUCTURE + +struct + { + /* name of the implementation */ + const char *name; + + /* sign */ + DSA_SIG *(*dsa_do_sign)(const unsigned char *dgst, int dlen, + DSA *dsa); + + /* pre-compute k^-1 and r */ + int (*dsa_sign_setup)(DSA *dsa, BN_CTX *ctx_in, BIGNUM **kinvp, + BIGNUM **rp); + + /* verify */ + int (*dsa_do_verify)(const unsigned char *dgst, int dgst_len, + DSA_SIG *sig, DSA *dsa); + + /* compute rr = a1^p1 * a2^p2 mod m (May be NULL for some + implementations) */ + int (*dsa_mod_exp)(DSA *dsa, BIGNUM *rr, BIGNUM *a1, BIGNUM *p1, + BIGNUM *a2, BIGNUM *p2, BIGNUM *m, + BN_CTX *ctx, BN_MONT_CTX *in_mont); + + /* compute r = a ^ p mod m (May be NULL for some implementations) */ + int (*bn_mod_exp)(DSA *dsa, BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, + const BIGNUM *p, const BIGNUM *m, + BN_CTX *ctx, BN_MONT_CTX *m_ctx); + + /* called at DSA_new */ + int (*init)(DSA *DSA); + + /* called at DSA_free */ + int (*finish)(DSA *DSA); + + int flags; + + char *app_data; /* ?? */ + + } DSA_METHOD; + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +DSA_OpenSSL() and DSA_get_default_method() return pointers to the respective +B<DSA_METHOD>s. + +DSA_set_default_method() returns no value. + +DSA_set_method() returns non-zero if the provided B<meth> was successfully set as +the method for B<dsa> (including unloading the ENGINE handle if the previous +method was supplied by an ENGINE). + +DSA_new_method() returns NULL and sets an error code that can be +obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)> if the allocation +fails.

For +0.9.7, the handling of defaults in the ENGINE API was restructured so that this +change was reversed, and behaviour of the other functions resembled more closely +the previous behaviour. The behaviour of defaults in the ENGINE API now +transparently overrides the behaviour of defaults in the DSA API without +requiring changing these function prototypes. + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/DSA_sign.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/DSA_sign.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..97389e8ec --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/DSA_sign.pod @@ -0,0 +1,66 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +DSA_sign, DSA_sign_setup, DSA_verify - DSA signatures + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + #include <openssl/dsa.h> + + int DSA_sign(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len, + unsigned char *sigret, unsigned int *siglen, DSA *dsa); + + int DSA_sign_setup(DSA *dsa, BN_CTX *ctx, BIGNUM **kinvp, + BIGNUM **rp); + + int DSA_verify(int type, const unsigned char *dgst, int len, + unsigned char *sigbuf, int siglen, DSA *dsa); + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +DSA_sign() computes a digital signature on the B<len> byte message +digest B<dgst> using the private key B<dsa> and places its ASN.1 DER +encoding at B<sigret>.

If the B<s> parameter is not NULL then the number of +bytes of data written (i.e. the length of the digest) will be written +to the integer at B<s>, at most B<EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE> bytes will be written. +After calling EVP_DigestFinal_ex() no additional calls to EVP_DigestUpdate() +can be made, but EVP_DigestInit_ex() can be called to initialize a new +digest operation. + +EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() cleans up digest context B<ctx>, it should be called +after a digest context is no longer needed. + +EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() cleans up digest context B<ctx> and frees up the +space allocated to it, it should be called only on a context created +using EVP_MD_CTX_create(). + +EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() can be used to copy the message digest state from +B<in> to B<out>.

B<ctx> must be initialized +before calling this function. B<type> is normally supplied +by a function such as EVP_des_cbc(). If B<impl> is NULL then the +default implementation is used. B<key> is the symmetric key to use +and B<iv> is the IV to use (if necessary), the actual number of bytes +used for the key and IV depends on the cipher. It is possible to set +all parameters to NULL except B<type> in an initial call and supply +the remaining parameters in subsequent calls, all of which have B<type> +set to NULL. This is done when the default cipher parameters are not +appropriate. + +EVP_EncryptUpdate() encrypts B<inl> bytes from the buffer B<in> and +writes the encrypted version to B<out>. This function can be called +multiple times to encrypt successive blocks of data. The amount +of data written depends on the block alignment of the encrypted data: +as a result the amount of data written may be anything from zero bytes +to (inl + cipher_block_size - 1) so B<outl> should contain sufficient +room. The actual number of bytes written is placed in B<outl>. + +If padding is enabled (the default) then EVP_EncryptFinal_ex() encrypts +the "final" data, that is any data that remains in a partial block. +It uses L<standard block padding|/NOTES> (aka PKCS padding). The encrypted +final data is written to B<out> which should have sufficient space for +one cipher block. The number of bytes written is placed in B<outl>. After +this function is called the encryption operation is finished and no further +calls to EVP_EncryptUpdate() should be made. + +If padding is disabled then EVP_EncryptFinal_ex() will not encrypt any more +data and it will return an error if any data remains in a partial block: +that is if the total data length is not a multiple of the block size. + +EVP_DecryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptUpdate() and EVP_DecryptFinal_ex() are the +corresponding decryption operations. EVP_DecryptFinal() will return an +error code if padding is enabled and the final block is not correctly +formatted. The parameters and restrictions are identical to the encryption +operations except that if padding is enabled the decrypted data buffer B<out> +passed to EVP_DecryptUpdate() should have sufficient room for +(B<inl> + cipher_block_size) bytes unless the cipher block size is 1 in +which case B<inl> bytes is sufficient. + +EVP_CipherInit_ex(), EVP_CipherUpdate() and EVP_CipherFinal_ex() are +functions that can be used for decryption or encryption. The operation +performed depends on the value of the B<enc> parameter. It should be set +to 1 for encryption, 0 for decryption and -1 to leave the value unchanged +(the actual value of 'enc' being supplied in a previous call). + +EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() clears all information from a cipher context +and free up any allocated memory associate with it. It should be called +after all operations using a cipher are complete so sensitive information +does not remain in memory. + +EVP_EncryptInit(), EVP_DecryptInit() and EVP_CipherInit() behave in a +similar way to EVP_EncryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex and +EVP_CipherInit_ex() except the B<ctx> paramter does not need to be +initialized and they always use the default cipher implementation. + +EVP_EncryptFinal(), EVP_DecryptFinal() and EVP_CipherFinal() behave in a +similar way to EVP_EncryptFinal_ex(), EVP_DecryptFinal_ex() and +EVP_CipherFinal_ex() except B<ctx> is automatically cleaned up +after the call. + +EVP_get_cipherbyname(), EVP_get_cipherbynid() and EVP_get_cipherbyobj() +return an EVP_CIPHER structure when passed a cipher name, a NID or an +ASN1_OBJECT structure. + +EVP_CIPHER_nid() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_nid() return the NID of a cipher when +passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> structure. The actual NID +value is an internal value which may not have a corresponding OBJECT +IDENTIFIER. + +EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() enables or disables padding. By default +encryption operations are padded using standard block padding and the +padding is checked and removed when decrypting. If the B<pad> parameter +is zero then no padding is performed, the total amount of data encrypted +or decrypted must then be a multiple of the block size or an error will +occur. + +EVP_CIPHER_key_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_key_length() return the key +length of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> +structure. The constant B<EVP_MAX_KEY_LENGTH> is the maximum key length +for all ciphers. Note: although EVP_CIPHER_key_length() is fixed for a +given cipher, the value of EVP_CIPHER_CTX_key_length() may be different +for variable key length ciphers. + +EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() sets the key length of the cipher ctx. +If the cipher is a fixed length cipher then attempting to set the key +length to any value other than the fixed value is an error. + +EVP_CIPHER_iv_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_iv_length() return the IV +length of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX>. +It will return zero if the cipher does not use an IV. The constant +B<EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH> is the maximum IV length for all ciphers. + +EVP_CIPHER_block_size() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_block_size() return the block +size of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> +structure. The constant B<EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH> is also the maximum block +length for all ciphers. + +EVP_CIPHER_type() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_type() return the type of the passed +cipher or context. This "type" is the actual NID of the cipher OBJECT +IDENTIFIER as such it ignores the cipher parameters and 40 bit RC2 and +128 bit RC2 have the same NID. If the cipher does not have an object +identifier or does not have ASN1 support this function will return +B<NID_undef>. + +EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cipher() returns the B<EVP_CIPHER> structure when passed +an B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> structure. + +EVP_CIPHER_mode() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_mode() return the block cipher mode: +EVP_CIPH_ECB_MODE, EVP_CIPH_CBC_MODE, EVP_CIPH_CFB_MODE or +EVP_CIPH_OFB_MODE. If the cipher is a stream cipher then +EVP_CIPH_STREAM_CIPHER is returned. + +EVP_CIPHER_param_to_asn1() sets the AlgorithmIdentifier "parameter" based +on the passed cipher. This will typically include any parameters and an +IV. The cipher IV (if any) must be set when this call is made. This call +should be made before the cipher is actually "used" (before any +EVP_EncryptUpdate(), EVP_DecryptUpdate() calls for example). This function +may fail if the cipher does not have any ASN1 support. + +EVP_CIPHER_asn1_to_param() sets the cipher parameters based on an ASN1 +AlgorithmIdentifier "parameter". The precise effect depends on the cipher +In the case of RC2, for example, it will set the IV and effective key length. +This function should be called after the base cipher type is set but before +the key is set.

For example if the block size is 8 and 11 bytes are to be +encrypted then 5 padding bytes of value 5 will be added. + +When decrypting the final block is checked to see if it has the correct form. + +Although the decryption operation can produce an error if padding is enabled, +it is not a strong test that the input data or key is correct. A random block +has better than 1 in 256 chance of being of the correct format and problems with +the input data earlier on will not produce a final decrypt error. + +If padding is disabled then the decryption operation will always succeed if +the total amount of data decrypted is a multiple of the block size. + +The functions EVP_EncryptInit(), EVP_EncryptFinal(), EVP_DecryptInit(), +EVP_CipherInit() and EVP_CipherFinal() are obsolete but are retained for +compatibility with existing code.

Blowfish can be used in the same +modes as DES (see L<des_modes(7)|des_modes(7)>). Blowfish is currently one +of the faster block ciphers. It is quite a bit faster than DES, and much +faster than IDEA or RC2. + +Blowfish consists of a key setup phase and the actual encryption or decryption +phase. + +BF_set_key() sets up the B<BF_KEY> B<key> using the B<len> bytes long key +at B<data>. + +BF_ecb_encrypt() is the basic Blowfish encryption and decryption function. +It encrypts or decrypts the first 64 bits of B<in> using the key B<key>, +putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (B<BF_ENCRYPT>) +or decryption (B<BF_DECRYPT>) shall be performed. The vector pointed at by +B<in> and B<out> must be 64 bits in length, no less. If they are larger, +everything after the first 64 bits is ignored. + +The mode functions BF_cbc_encrypt(), BF_cfb64_encrypt() and BF_ofb64_encrypt() +all operate on variable length data. They all take an initialization vector +B<ivec> which needs to be passed along into the next call of the same function +for the same message. B<ivec> may be initialized with anything, but the +recipient needs to know what it was initialized with, or it won't be able +to decrypt. Some programs and protocols simplify this, like SSH, where +B<ivec> is simply initialized to zero. +BF_cbc_encrypt() operates on data that is a multiple of 8 bytes long, while +BF_cfb64_encrypt() and BF_ofb64_encrypt() are used to encrypt an variable +number of bytes (the amount does not have to be an exact multiple of 8). The +purpose of the latter two is to simulate stream ciphers, and therefore, they +need the parameter B<num>, which is a pointer to an integer where the current +offset in B<ivec> is stored between calls. This integer must be initialized +to zero when B<ivec> is initialized. + +BF_cbc_encrypt() is the Cipher Block Chaining function for Blowfish. It +encrypts or decrypts the 64 bits chunks of B<in> using the key B<schedule>, +putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (BF_ENCRYPT) or +decryption (BF_DECRYPT) shall be performed. B<ivec> must point at an 8 byte +long initialization vector. + +BF_cfb64_encrypt() is the CFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback. +It encrypts or decrypts the bytes in B<in> using the key B<schedule>, +putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (B<BF_ENCRYPT>) +or decryption (B<BF_DECRYPT>) shall be performed. B<ivec> must point at an +8 byte long initialization vector. B<num> must point at an integer which must +be initially zero. + +BF_ofb64_encrypt() is the OFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback. +It uses the same parameters as BF_cfb64_encrypt(), which must be initialized +the same way. + +BF_encrypt() and BF_decrypt() are the lowest level functions for Blowfish +encryption. They encrypt/decrypt the first 64 bits of the vector pointed by +B<data>, using the key B<key>. These functions should not be used unless you +implement 'modes' of Blowfish. The alternative is to use BF_ecb_encrypt(). +If you still want to use these functions, you should be aware that they take +each 32-bit chunk in host-byte order, which is little-endian on little-endian +platforms and big-endian on big-endian ones. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +None of the functions presented here return any value. + +=head1 NOTE + +Applications should use the higher level functions +L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)|EVP_EncryptInit(3)> etc. instead of calling the +blowfish functions directly. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<des_modes(7)|des_modes(7)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +The Blowfish functions are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. + +=cut + diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/bn.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/bn.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..cd2f8e50c --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/bn.pod @@ -0,0 +1,181 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +bn - multiprecision integer arithmetics + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + #include <openssl/bn.h> + + BIGNUM *BN_new(void);

They are I<not> to be used by +applications. + +=head2 The BIGNUM structure + + typedef struct bignum_st + { + int top; /* number of words used in d */ + BN_ULONG *d; /* pointer to an array containing the integer value */ + int max; /* size of the d array */ + int neg; /* sign */ + } BIGNUM; + +The integer value is stored in B<d>, a malloc()ed array of words (B<BN_ULONG>), +least significant word first. A B<BN_ULONG> can be either 16, 32 or 64 bits +in size, depending on the 'number of bits' (B<BITS2>) specified in +C<openssl/bn.h>. + +B<max> is the size of the B<d> array that has been allocated. B<top> +is the number of words being used, so for a value of 4, bn.d[0]=4 and +bn.top=1. B<neg> is 1 if the number is negative. When a B<BIGNUM> is +B<0>, the B<d> field can be B<NULL> and B<top> == B<0>. + +Various routines in this library require the use of temporary +B<BIGNUM> variables during their execution. Since dynamic memory +allocation to create B<BIGNUM>s is rather expensive when used in +conjunction with repeated subroutine calls, the B<BN_CTX> structure is +used. This structure contains B<BN_CTX_NUM> B<BIGNUM>s, see +L<BN_CTX_start(3)|BN_CTX_start(3)>. + +=head2 Low-level arithmetic operations + +These functions are implemented in C and for several platforms in +assembly language: + +bn_mul_words(B<rp>, B<ap>, B<num>, B<w>) operates on the B<num> word +arrays B<rp> and B<ap>. It computes B<ap> * B<w>, places the result +in B<rp>, and returns the high word (carry). + +bn_mul_add_words(B<rp>, B<ap>, B<num>, B<w>) operates on the B<num> +word arrays B<rp> and B<ap>. It computes B<ap> * B<w> + B<rp>, places +the result in B<rp>, and returns the high word (carry). + +bn_sqr_words(B<rp>, B<ap>, B<n>) operates on the B<num> word array +B<ap> and the 2*B<num> word array B<ap>. It computes B<ap> * B<ap> +word-wise, and places the low and high bytes of the result in B<rp>. + +bn_div_words(B<h>, B<l>, B<d>) divides the two word number (B<h>,B<l>) +by B<d> and returns the result. + +bn_add_words(B<rp>, B<ap>, B<bp>, B<num>) operates on the B<num> word +arrays B<ap>, B<bp> and B<rp>. It computes B<ap> + B<bp>, places the +result in B<rp>, and returns the high word (carry). + +bn_sub_words(B<rp>, B<ap>, B<bp>, B<num>) operates on the B<num> word +arrays B<ap>, B<bp> and B<rp>. It computes B<ap> - B<bp>, places the +result in B<rp>, and returns the carry (1 if B<bp> E<gt> B<ap>, 0 +otherwise). + +bn_mul_comba4(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>) operates on the 4 word arrays B<a> and +B<b> and the 8 word array B<r>. It computes B<a>*B<b> and places the +result in B<r>. + +bn_mul_comba8(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>) operates on the 8 word arrays B<a> and +B<b> and the 16 word array B<r>. It computes B<a>*B<b> and places the +result in B<r>. + +bn_sqr_comba4(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>) operates on the 4 word arrays B<a> and +B<b> and the 8 word array B<r>. + +bn_sqr_comba8(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>) operates on the 8 word arrays B<a> and +B<b> and the 16 word array B<r>. + +The following functions are implemented in C: + +bn_cmp_words(B<a>, B<b>, B<n>) operates on the B<n> word arrays B<a> +and B<b>. It returns 1, 0 and -1 if B<a> is greater than, equal and +less than B<b>. + +bn_mul_normal(B<r>, B<a>, B<na>, B<b>, B<nb>) operates on the B<na> +word array B<a>, the B<nb> word array B<b> and the B<na>+B<nb> word +array B<r>. It computes B<a>*B<b> and places the result in B<r>. + +bn_mul_low_normal(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>, B<n>) operates on the B<n> word +arrays B<r>, B<a> and B<b>. It computes the B<n> low words of +B<a>*B<b> and places the result in B<r>. + +bn_mul_recursive(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>, B<n2>, B<dna>, B<dnb>, B<t>) operates +on the word arrays B<a> and B<b> of length B<n2>+B<dna> and B<n2>+B<dnb> +(B<dna> and B<dnb> are currently allowed to be 0 or negative) and the 2*B<n2> +word arrays B<r> and B<t>.

It computes +B<a>*B<b> and places the result in B<r>. + +bn_mul_part_recursive(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>, B<n>, B<tna>, B<tnb>, B<tmp>) +operates on the word arrays B<a> and B<b> of length B<n>+B<tna> and +B<n>+B<tnb> and the 4*B<n> word arrays B<r> and B<tmp>. + +bn_mul_low_recursive(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>, B<n2>, B<tmp>) operates on the +B<n2> word arrays B<r> and B<tmp> and the B<n2>/2 word arrays B<a> +and B<b>. + +bn_mul_high(B<r>, B<a>, B<b>, B<l>, B<n2>, B<tmp>) operates on the +B<n2> word arrays B<r>, B<a>, B<b> and B<l> (?) and the 3*B<n2> word +array B<tmp>. + +BN_mul() calls bn_mul_normal(), or an optimized implementation if the +factors have the same size: bn_mul_comba8() is used if they are 8 +words long, bn_mul_recursive() if they are larger than +B<BN_MULL_SIZE_NORMAL> and the size is an exact multiple of the word +size, and bn_mul_part_recursive() for others that are larger than +B<BN_MULL_SIZE_NORMAL>. + +bn_sqr_normal(B<r>, B<a>, B<n>, B<tmp>) operates on the B<n> word array +B<a> and the 2*B<n> word arrays B<tmp> and B<r>. + +The implementations use the following macros which, depending on the +architecture, may use "long long" C operations or inline assembler. +They are defined in C<bn_lcl.h>. + +mul(B<r>, B<a>, B<w>, B<c>) computes B<w>*B<a>+B<c> and places the +low word of the result in B<r> and the high word in B<c>. + +mul_add(B<r>, B<a>, B<w>, B<c>) computes B<w>*B<a>+B<r>+B<c> and +places the low word of the result in B<r> and the high word in B<c>. + +sqr(B<r0>, B<r1>, B<a>) computes B<a>*B<a> and places the low word +of the result in B<r0> and the high word in B<r1>. + +=head2 Size changes + +bn_expand() ensures that B<b> has enough space for a B<bits> bit +number. bn_wexpand() ensures that B<b> has enough space for an +B<n> word number. If the number has to be expanded, both macros +call bn_expand2(), which allocates a new B<d> array and copies the +data. They return B<NULL> on error, B<b> otherwise. + +The bn_fix_top() macro reduces B<a-E<gt>top> to point to the most +significant non-zero word plus one when B<a> has shrunk. + +=head2 Debugging + +bn_check_top() verifies that C<((a)-E<gt>top E<gt>= 0 && (a)-E<gt>top +E<lt>= (a)-E<gt>max)>.

A common +mistake is to attempt to use a buffer directly as follows: + + int len; + unsigned char *buf; + + len = i2d_X509(x, NULL); + + buf = OPENSSL_malloc(len); + + if (buf == NULL) + /* error */ + + i2d_X509(x, &buf); + + /* Other stuff ... */ + + OPENSSL_free(buf); + +This code will result in B<buf> apparently containing garbage because +it was incremented after the call to point after the data just written. +Also B<buf> will no longer contain the pointer allocated by B<OPENSSL_malloc()> +and the subsequent call to B<OPENSSL_free()> may well crash. + +The auto allocation feature (setting buf to NULL) only works on OpenSSL +0.9.7 and later. Attempts to use it on earlier versions will typically +cause a segmentation violation. + +Another trap to avoid is misuse of the B<xp> argument to B<d2i_X509()>: + + X509 *x; + + if (!d2i_X509(&x, &p, len)) + /* Some error */ + +This will probably crash somewhere in B<d2i_X509()>. The reason for this +is that the variable B<x> is uninitialized and an attempt will be made to +interpret its (invalid) value as an B<X509> structure, typically causing +a segmentation violation. If B<x> is set to NULL first then this will not +happen. + +=head1 BUGS + +In some versions of OpenSSL the "reuse" behaviour of d2i_X509() when +B<*px> is valid is broken and some parts of the reused structure may +persist if they are not present in the new one.

+ +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +This library contains a fast implementation of the DES encryption +algorithm. + +There are two phases to the use of DES encryption. The first is the +generation of a I<DES_key_schedule> from a key, the second is the +actual encryption. A DES key is of type I<DES_cblock>. This type is +consists of 8 bytes with odd parity. The least significant bit in +each byte is the parity bit. The key schedule is an expanded form of +the key; it is used to speed the encryption process. + +DES_random_key() generates a random key. The PRNG must be seeded +prior to using this function (see L<rand(3)|rand(3)>). If the PRNG +could not generate a secure key, 0 is returned. + +Before a DES key can be used, it must be converted into the +architecture dependent I<DES_key_schedule> via the +DES_set_key_checked() or DES_set_key_unchecked() function. + +DES_set_key_checked() will check that the key passed is of odd parity +and is not a week or semi-weak key. If the parity is wrong, then -1 +is returned. If the key is a weak key, then -2 is returned. If an +error is returned, the key schedule is not generated. + +DES_set_key() works like +DES_set_key_checked() if the I<DES_check_key> flag is non-zero, +otherwise like DES_set_key_unchecked(). These functions are available +for compatibility; it is recommended to use a function that does not +depend on a global variable. + +DES_set_odd_parity() sets the parity of the passed I<key> to odd. + +DES_is_weak_key() returns 1 is the passed key is a weak key, 0 if it +is ok. The probability that a randomly generated key is weak is +1/2^52, so it is not really worth checking for them. + +The following routines mostly operate on an input and output stream of +I<DES_cblock>s. + +DES_ecb_encrypt() is the basic DES encryption routine that encrypts or +decrypts a single 8-byte I<DES_cblock> in I<electronic code book> +(ECB) mode. It always transforms the input data, pointed to by +I<input>, into the output data, pointed to by the I<output> argument. +If the I<encrypt> argument is non-zero (DES_ENCRYPT), the I<input> +(cleartext) is encrypted in to the I<output> (ciphertext) using the +key_schedule specified by the I<schedule> argument, previously set via +I<DES_set_key>. If I<encrypt> is zero (DES_DECRYPT), the I<input> (now +ciphertext) is decrypted into the I<output> (now cleartext). Input +and output may overlap. DES_ecb_encrypt() does not return a value. + +DES_ecb3_encrypt() encrypts/decrypts the I<input> block by using +three-key Triple-DES encryption in ECB mode. This involves encrypting +the input with I<ks1>, decrypting with the key schedule I<ks2>, and +then encrypting with I<ks3>. This routine greatly reduces the chances +of brute force breaking of DES and has the advantage of if I<ks1>, +I<ks2> and I<ks3> are the same, it is equivalent to just encryption +using ECB mode and I<ks1> as the key. + +The macro DES_ecb2_encrypt() is provided to perform two-key Triple-DES +encryption by using I<ks1> for the final encryption. + +DES_ncbc_encrypt() encrypts/decrypts using the I<cipher-block-chaining> +(CBC) mode of DES. If the I<encrypt> argument is non-zero, the +routine cipher-block-chain encrypts the cleartext data pointed to by +the I<input> argument into the ciphertext pointed to by the I<output> +argument, using the key schedule provided by the I<schedule> argument, +and initialization vector provided by the I<ivec> argument. If the +I<length> argument is not an integral multiple of eight bytes, the +last block is copied to a temporary area and zero filled. The output +is always an integral multiple of eight bytes. + +DES_xcbc_encrypt() is RSA's DESX mode of DES. It uses I<inw> and +I<outw> to 'whiten' the encryption. I<inw> and I<outw> are secret +(unlike the iv) and are as such, part of the key. So the key is sort +of 24 bytes. This is much better than CBC DES. + +DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt() implements outer triple CBC DES encryption with +three keys. This means that each DES operation inside the CBC mode is +really an C<C=E(ks3,D(ks2,E(ks1,M)))>. This mode is used by SSL. + +The DES_ede2_cbc_encrypt() macro implements two-key Triple-DES by +reusing I<ks1> for the final encryption. C<C=E(ks1,D(ks2,E(ks1,M)))>. +This form of Triple-DES is used by the RSAREF library. + +DES_pcbc_encrypt() encrypt/decrypts using the propagating cipher block +chaining mode used by Kerberos v4. Its parameters are the same as +DES_ncbc_encrypt(). + +DES_cfb_encrypt() encrypt/decrypts using cipher feedback mode. This +method takes an array of characters as input and outputs and array of +characters. It does not require any padding to 8 character groups. +Note: the I<ivec> variable is changed and the new changed value needs to +be passed to the next call to this function. Since this function runs +a complete DES ECB encryption per I<numbits>, this function is only +suggested for use when sending small numbers of characters. + +DES_cfb64_encrypt() +implements CFB mode of DES with 64bit feedback. Why is this +useful you ask? Because this routine will allow you to encrypt an +arbitrary number of bytes, no 8 byte padding. Each call to this +routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec +and num. num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. If this does +not make much sense, read more about cfb mode of DES :-). + +DES_ede3_cfb64_encrypt() and DES_ede2_cfb64_encrypt() is the same as +DES_cfb64_encrypt() except that Triple-DES is used. + +DES_ofb_encrypt() encrypts using output feedback mode. This method +takes an array of characters as input and outputs and array of +characters. It does not require any padding to 8 character groups. +Note: the I<ivec> variable is changed and the new changed value needs to +be passed to the next call to this function. Since this function runs +a complete DES ECB encryption per numbits, this function is only +suggested for use when sending small numbers of characters. + +DES_ofb64_encrypt() is the same as DES_cfb64_encrypt() using Output +Feed Back mode. + +DES_ede3_ofb64_encrypt() and DES_ede2_ofb64_encrypt() is the same as +DES_ofb64_encrypt(), using Triple-DES. + +The following functions are included in the DES library for +compatibility with the MIT Kerberos library. + +DES_cbc_cksum() produces an 8 byte checksum based on the input stream +(via CBC encryption). The last 4 bytes of the checksum are returned +and the complete 8 bytes are placed in I<output>. This function is +used by Kerberos v4. Other applications should use +L<EVP_DigestInit(3)|EVP_DigestInit(3)> etc. instead. + +DES_quad_cksum() is a Kerberos v4 function. It returns a 4 byte +checksum from the input bytes. The algorithm can be iterated over the +input, depending on I<out_count>, 1, 2, 3 or 4 times. If I<output> is +non-NULL, the 8 bytes generated by each pass are written into +I<output>. + +The following are DES-based transformations: + +DES_fcrypt() is a fast version of the Unix crypt(3) function. This +version takes only a small amount of space relative to other fast +crypt() implementations. This is different to the normal crypt in +that the third parameter is the buffer that the return value is +written into. It needs to be at least 14 bytes long. This function +is thread safe, unlike the normal crypt. + +DES_crypt() is a faster replacement for the normal system crypt(). +This function calls DES_fcrypt() with a static array passed as the +third parameter. This emulates the normal non-thread safe semantics +of crypt(3). + +DES_enc_write() writes I<len> bytes to file descriptor I<fd> from +buffer I<buf>. The data is encrypted via I<pcbc_encrypt> (default) +using I<sched> for the key and I<iv> as a starting vector. The actual +data send down I<fd> consists of 4 bytes (in network byte order) +containing the length of the following encrypted data. The encrypted +data then follows, padded with random data out to a multiple of 8 +bytes. + +DES_enc_read() is used to read I<len> bytes from file descriptor +I<fd> into buffer I<buf>. The data being read from I<fd> is assumed to +have come from DES_enc_write() and is decrypted using I<sched> for +the key schedule and I<iv> for the initial vector. + +B<Warning:> The data format used by DES_enc_write() and DES_enc_read() +has a cryptographic weakness: When asked to write more than MAXWRITE +bytes, DES_enc_write() will split the data into several chunks that +are all encrypted using the same IV. So don't use these functions +unless you are sure you know what you do (in which case you might not +want to use them anyway). They cannot handle non-blocking sockets. +DES_enc_read() uses an internal state and thus cannot be used on +multiple files. + +I<DES_rw_mode> is used to specify the encryption mode to use with +DES_enc_read() and DES_end_write(). If set to I<DES_PCBC_MODE> (the +default), DES_pcbc_encrypt is used. If set to I<DES_CBC_MODE> +DES_cbc_encrypt is used. + +=head1 NOTES + +Single-key DES is insecure due to its short key size. ECB mode is +not suitable for most applications; see L<des_modes(7)|des_modes(7)>. + +The L<evp(3)|evp(3)> library provides higher-level encryption functions. + +=head1 BUGS + +DES_3cbc_encrypt() is flawed and must not be used in applications. + +DES_cbc_encrypt() does not modify B<ivec>; use DES_ncbc_encrypt() +instead. + +DES_cfb_encrypt() and DES_ofb_encrypt() operates on input of 8 bits. +What this means is that if you set numbits to 12, and length to 2, the +first 12 bits will come from the 1st input byte and the low half of +the second input byte. The second 12 bits will have the low 8 bits +taken from the 3rd input byte and the top 4 bits taken from the 4th +input byte. The same holds for output. This function has been +implemented this way because most people will be using a multiple of 8 +and because once you get into pulling bytes input bytes apart things +get ugly! + +DES_string_to_key() is available for backward compatibility with the +MIT library. New applications should use a cryptographic hash function. +The same applies for DES_string_to_2key(). + +=head1 CONFORMING TO + +ANSI X3.106 + +The B<des> library was written to be source code compatible with +the MIT Kerberos library. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +crypt(3), L<des_modes(7)|des_modes(7)>, L<evp(3)|evp(3)>, L<rand(3)|rand(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +In OpenSSL 0.9.7, all des_ functions were renamed to DES_ to avoid +clashes with older versions of libdes.

These objects act as containers for +implementations of cryptographic algorithms, and support a +reference-counted mechanism to allow them to be dynamically loaded in and +out of the running application. + +The cryptographic functionality that can be provided by an B<ENGINE> +implementation includes the following abstractions; + + RSA_METHOD - for providing alternative RSA implementations + DSA_METHOD, DH_METHOD, RAND_METHOD, ECDH_METHOD, ECDSA_METHOD, + STORE_METHOD - similarly for other OpenSSL APIs + EVP_CIPHER - potentially multiple cipher algorithms (indexed by 'nid') + EVP_DIGEST - potentially multiple hash algorithms (indexed by 'nid') + key-loading - loading public and/or private EVP_PKEY keys + +=head2 Reference counting and handles + +Due to the modular nature of the ENGINE API, pointers to ENGINEs need to be +treated as handles - ie. not only as pointers, but also as references to +the underlying ENGINE object. Ie. one should obtain a new reference when +making copies of an ENGINE pointer if the copies will be used (and +released) independently. + +ENGINE objects have two levels of reference-counting to match the way in +which the objects are used. At the most basic level, each ENGINE pointer is +inherently a B<structural> reference - a structural reference is required +to use the pointer value at all, as this kind of reference is a guarantee +that the structure can not be deallocated until the reference is released. + +However, a structural reference provides no guarantee that the ENGINE is +initiliased and able to use any of its cryptographic +implementations. Indeed it's quite possible that most ENGINEs will not +initialise at all in typical environments, as ENGINEs are typically used to +support specialised hardware. To use an ENGINE's functionality, you need a +B<functional> reference. This kind of reference can be considered a +specialised form of structural reference, because each functional reference +implicitly contains a structural reference as well - however to avoid +difficult-to-find programming bugs, it is recommended to treat the two +kinds of reference independently. If you have a functional reference to an +ENGINE, you have a guarantee that the ENGINE has been initialised ready to +perform cryptographic operations and will remain uninitialised +until after you have released your reference. + +I<Structural references> + +This basic type of reference is used for instantiating new ENGINEs, +iterating across OpenSSL's internal linked-list of loaded +ENGINEs, reading information about an ENGINE, etc. Essentially a structural +reference is sufficient if you only need to query or manipulate the data of +an ENGINE implementation rather than use its functionality. + +The ENGINE_new() function returns a structural reference to a new (empty) +ENGINE object. There are other ENGINE API functions that return structural +references such as; ENGINE_by_id(), ENGINE_get_first(), ENGINE_get_last(), +ENGINE_get_next(), ENGINE_get_prev(). All structural references should be +released by a corresponding to call to the ENGINE_free() function - the +ENGINE object itself will only actually be cleaned up and deallocated when +the last structural reference is released. + +It should also be noted that many ENGINE API function calls that accept a +structural reference will internally obtain another reference - typically +this happens whenever the supplied ENGINE will be needed by OpenSSL after +the function has returned. Eg. the function to add a new ENGINE to +OpenSSL's internal list is ENGINE_add() - if this function returns success, +then OpenSSL will have stored a new structural reference internally so the +caller is still responsible for freeing their own reference with +ENGINE_free() when they are finished with it. In a similar way, some +functions will automatically release the structural reference passed to it +if part of the function's job is to do so. Eg. the ENGINE_get_next() and +ENGINE_get_prev() functions are used for iterating across the internal +ENGINE list - they will return a new structural reference to the next (or +previous) ENGINE in the list or NULL if at the end (or beginning) of the +list, but in either case the structural reference passed to the function is +released on behalf of the caller. + +To clarify a particular function's handling of references, one should +always consult that function's documentation "man" page, or failing that +the openssl/engine.h header file includes some hints. + +I<Functional references> + +As mentioned, functional references exist when the cryptographic +functionality of an ENGINE is required to be available. A functional +reference can be obtained in one of two ways; from an existing structural +reference to the required ENGINE, or by asking OpenSSL for the default +operational ENGINE for a given cryptographic purpose. + +To obtain a functional reference from an existing structural reference, +call the ENGINE_init() function. This returns zero if the ENGINE was not +already operational and couldn't be successfully initialised (eg. lack of +system drivers, no special hardware attached, etc), otherwise it will +return non-zero to indicate that the ENGINE is now operational and will +have allocated a new B<functional> reference to the ENGINE. All functional +references are released by calling ENGINE_finish() (which removes the +implicit structural reference as well). + +The second way to get a functional reference is by asking OpenSSL for a +default implementation for a given task, eg. by ENGINE_get_default_RSA(), +ENGINE_get_default_cipher_engine(), etc. These are discussed in the next +section, though they are not usually required by application programmers as +they are used automatically when creating and using the relevant +algorithm-specific types in OpenSSL, such as RSA, DSA, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, etc. + +=head2 Default implementations + +For each supported abstraction, the ENGINE code maintains an internal table +of state to control which implementations are available for a given +abstraction and which should be used by default. These implementations are +registered in the tables and indexed by an 'nid' value, because +abstractions like EVP_CIPHER and EVP_DIGEST support many distinct +algorithms and modes, and ENGINEs can support arbitrarily many of them. +In the case of other abstractions like RSA, DSA, etc, there is only one +"algorithm" so all implementations implicitly register using the same 'nid' +index. + +When a default ENGINE is requested for a given abstraction/algorithm/mode, (eg. +when calling RSA_new_method(NULL)), a "get_default" call will be made to the +ENGINE subsystem to process the corresponding state table and return a +functional reference to an initialised ENGINE whose implementation should be +used. If no ENGINE should (or can) be used, it will return NULL and the caller +will operate with a NULL ENGINE handle - this usually equates to using the +conventional software implementation. In the latter case, OpenSSL will from +then on behave the way it used to before the ENGINE API existed. + +Each state table has a flag to note whether it has processed this +"get_default" query since the table was last modified, because to process +this question it must iterate across all the registered ENGINEs in the +table trying to initialise each of them in turn, in case one of them is +operational. If it returns a functional reference to an ENGINE, it will +also cache another reference to speed up processing future queries (without +needing to iterate across the table). Likewise, it will cache a NULL +response if no ENGINE was available so that future queries won't repeat the +same iteration unless the state table changes. This behaviour can also be +changed; if the ENGINE_TABLE_FLAG_NOINIT flag is set (using +ENGINE_set_table_flags()), no attempted initialisations will take place, +instead the only way for the state table to return a non-NULL ENGINE to the +"get_default" query will be if one is expressly set in the table. Eg. +ENGINE_set_default_RSA() does the same job as ENGINE_register_RSA() except +that it also sets the state table's cached response for the "get_default" +query. In the case of abstractions like EVP_CIPHER, where implementations are +indexed by 'nid', these flags and cached-responses are distinct for each 'nid' +value. + +=head2 Application requirements + +This section will explain the basic things an application programmer should +support to make the most useful elements of the ENGINE functionality +available to the user. The first thing to consider is whether the +programmer wishes to make alternative ENGINE modules available to the +application and user. OpenSSL maintains an internal linked list of +"visible" ENGINEs from which it has to operate - at start-up, this list is +empty and in fact if an application does not call any ENGINE API calls and +it uses static linking against openssl, then the resulting application +binary will not contain any alternative ENGINE code at all. So the first +consideration is whether any/all available ENGINE implementations should be +made visible to OpenSSL - this is controlled by calling the various "load" +functions, eg. + + /* Make the "dynamic" ENGINE available */ + void ENGINE_load_dynamic(void); + /* Make the CryptoSwift hardware acceleration support available */ + void ENGINE_load_cswift(void); + /* Make support for nCipher's "CHIL" hardware available */ + void ENGINE_load_chil(void); + ... + /* Make ALL ENGINE implementations bundled with OpenSSL available */ + void ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(void); + +Having called any of these functions, ENGINE objects would have been +dynamically allocated and populated with these implementations and linked +into OpenSSL's internal linked list. At this point it is important to +mention an important API function; + + void ENGINE_cleanup(void); + +If no ENGINE API functions are called at all in an application, then there +are no inherent memory leaks to worry about from the ENGINE functionality, +however if any ENGINEs are loaded, even if they are never registered or +used, it is necessary to use the ENGINE_cleanup() function to +correspondingly cleanup before program exit, if the caller wishes to avoid +memory leaks. This mechanism uses an internal callback registration table +so that any ENGINE API functionality that knows it requires cleanup can +register its cleanup details to be called during ENGINE_cleanup(). This +approach allows ENGINE_cleanup() to clean up after any ENGINE functionality +at all that your program uses, yet doesn't automatically create linker +dependencies to all possible ENGINE functionality - only the cleanup +callbacks required by the functionality you do use will be required by the +linker. + +The fact that ENGINEs are made visible to OpenSSL (and thus are linked into +the program and loaded into memory at run-time) does not mean they are +"registered" or called into use by OpenSSL automatically - that behaviour +is something for the application to control. Some applications +will want to allow the user to specify exactly which ENGINE they want used +if any is to be used at all. Others may prefer to load all support and have +OpenSSL automatically use at run-time any ENGINE that is able to +successfully initialise - ie. to assume that this corresponds to +acceleration hardware attached to the machine or some such thing. There are +probably numerous other ways in which applications may prefer to handle +things, so we will simply illustrate the consequences as they apply to a +couple of simple cases and leave developers to consider these and the +source code to openssl's builtin utilities as guides. + +I<Using a specific ENGINE implementation> + +Here we'll assume an application has been configured by its user or admin +to want to use the "ACME" ENGINE if it is available in the version of +OpenSSL the application was compiled with. If it is available, it should be +used by default for all RSA, DSA, and symmetric cipher operation, otherwise +OpenSSL should use its builtin software as per usual. The following code +illustrates how to approach this; + + ENGINE *e; + const char *engine_id = "ACME"; + ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(); + e = ENGINE_by_id(engine_id); + if(!e) + /* the engine isn't available */ + return; + if(!ENGINE_init(e)) { + /* the engine couldn't initialise, release 'e' */ + ENGINE_free(e); + return; + } + if(!ENGINE_set_default_RSA(e)) + /* This should only happen when 'e' can't initialise, but the previous + * statement suggests it did. */ + abort(); + ENGINE_set_default_DSA(e); + ENGINE_set_default_ciphers(e); + /* Release the functional reference from ENGINE_init() */ + ENGINE_finish(e); + /* Release the structural reference from ENGINE_by_id() */ + ENGINE_free(e); + +I<Automatically using builtin ENGINE implementations> + +Here we'll assume we want to load and register all ENGINE implementations +bundled with OpenSSL, such that for any cryptographic algorithm required by +OpenSSL - if there is an ENGINE that implements it and can be initialise, +it should be used. The following code illustrates how this can work; + + /* Load all bundled ENGINEs into memory and make them visible */ + ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(); + /* Register all of them for every algorithm they collectively implement */ + ENGINE_register_all_complete(); + +That's all that's required. Eg. the next time OpenSSL tries to set up an +RSA key, any bundled ENGINEs that implement RSA_METHOD will be passed to +ENGINE_init() and if any of those succeed, that ENGINE will be set as the +default for RSA use from then on. + +=head2 Advanced configuration support + +There is a mechanism supported by the ENGINE framework that allows each +ENGINE implementation to define an arbitrary set of configuration +"commands" and expose them to OpenSSL and any applications based on +OpenSSL. This mechanism is entirely based on the use of name-value pairs +and assumes ASCII input (no unicode or UTF for now!), so it is ideal if +applications want to provide a transparent way for users to provide +arbitrary configuration "directives" directly to such ENGINEs. It is also +possible for the application to dynamically interrogate the loaded ENGINE +implementations for the names, descriptions, and input flags of their +available "control commands", providing a more flexible configuration +scheme. However, if the user is expected to know which ENGINE device he/she +is using (in the case of specialised hardware, this goes without saying) +then applications may not need to concern themselves with discovering the +supported control commands and simply prefer to pass settings into ENGINEs +exactly as they are provided by the user. + +Before illustrating how control commands work, it is worth mentioning what +they are typically used for. Broadly speaking there are two uses for +control commands; the first is to provide the necessary details to the +implementation (which may know nothing at all specific to the host system) +so that it can be initialised for use. This could include the path to any +driver or config files it needs to load, required network addresses, +smart-card identifiers, passwords to initialise protected devices, +logging information, etc etc. This class of commands typically needs to be +passed to an ENGINE B<before> attempting to initialise it, ie. before +calling ENGINE_init(). The other class of commands consist of settings or +operations that tweak certain behaviour or cause certain operations to take +place, and these commands may work either before or after ENGINE_init(), or +in some cases both. ENGINE implementations should provide indications of +this in the descriptions attached to builtin control commands and/or in +external product documentation. + +I<Issuing control commands to an ENGINE> + +Let's illustrate by example; a function for which the caller supplies the +name of the ENGINE it wishes to use, a table of string-pairs for use before +initialisation, and another table for use after initialisation. Note that +the string-pairs used for control commands consist of a command "name" +followed by the command "parameter" - the parameter could be NULL in some +cases but the name can not. This function should initialise the ENGINE +(issuing the "pre" commands beforehand and the "post" commands afterwards) +and set it as the default for everything except RAND and then return a +boolean success or failure. + + int generic_load_engine_fn(const char *engine_id, + const char **pre_cmds, int pre_num, + const char **post_cmds, int post_num) + { + ENGINE *e = ENGINE_by_id(engine_id); + if(!e) return 0; + while(pre_num--) { + if(!ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(e, pre_cmds[0], pre_cmds[1], 0)) { + fprintf(stderr, "Failed command (%s - %s:%s)\n", engine_id, + pre_cmds[0], pre_cmds[1] ? pre_cmds[1] : "(NULL)"); + ENGINE_free(e); + return 0; + } + pre_cmds += 2; + } + if(!ENGINE_init(e)) { + fprintf(stderr, "Failed initialisation\n"); + ENGINE_free(e); + return 0; + } + /* ENGINE_init() returned a functional reference, so free the structural + * reference from ENGINE_by_id(). */ + ENGINE_free(e); + while(post_num--) { + if(!ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(e, post_cmds[0], post_cmds[1], 0)) { + fprintf(stderr, "Failed command (%s - %s:%s)\n", engine_id, + post_cmds[0], post_cmds[1] ? post_cmds[1] : "(NULL)"); + ENGINE_finish(e); + return 0; + } + post_cmds += 2; + } + ENGINE_set_default(e, ENGINE_METHOD_ALL & ~ENGINE_METHOD_RAND); + /* Success */ + return 1; + } + +Note that ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string() accepts a boolean argument that can +relax the semantics of the function - if set non-zero it will only return +failure if the ENGINE supported the given command name but failed while +executing it, if the ENGINE doesn't support the command name it will simply +return success without doing anything. In this case we assume the user is +only supplying commands specific to the given ENGINE so we set this to +FALSE. + +I<Discovering supported control commands> + +It is possible to discover at run-time the names, numerical-ids, descriptions +and input parameters of the control commands supported by an ENGINE using a +structural reference. Note that some control commands are defined by OpenSSL +itself and it will intercept and handle these control commands on behalf of the +ENGINE, ie. the ENGINE's ctrl() handler is not used for the control command. +openssl/engine.h defines an index, ENGINE_CMD_BASE, that all control commands +implemented by ENGINEs should be numbered from. Any command value lower than +this symbol is considered a "generic" command is handled directly by the +OpenSSL core routines. + +It is using these "core" control commands that one can discover the the control +commands implemented by a given ENGINE, specifically the commands; + + #define ENGINE_HAS_CTRL_FUNCTION 10 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_FIRST_CMD_TYPE 11 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_NEXT_CMD_TYPE 12 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_CMD_FROM_NAME 13 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_NAME_LEN_FROM_CMD 14 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_NAME_FROM_CMD 15 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_DESC_LEN_FROM_CMD 16 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_DESC_FROM_CMD 17 + #define ENGINE_CTRL_GET_CMD_FLAGS 18 + +Whilst these commands are automatically processed by the OpenSSL framework code, +they use various properties exposed by each ENGINE to process these +queries. An ENGINE has 3 properties it exposes that can affect how this behaves; +it can supply a ctrl() handler, it can specify ENGINE_FLAGS_MANUAL_CMD_CTRL in +the ENGINE's flags, and it can expose an array of control command descriptions. +If an ENGINE specifies the ENGINE_FLAGS_MANUAL_CMD_CTRL flag, then it will +simply pass all these "core" control commands directly to the ENGINE's ctrl() +handler (and thus, it must have supplied one), so it is up to the ENGINE to +reply to these "discovery" commands itself. If that flag is not set, then the +OpenSSL framework code will work with the following rules; + + if no ctrl() handler supplied; + ENGINE_HAS_CTRL_FUNCTION returns FALSE (zero), + all other commands fail. + if a ctrl() handler was supplied but no array of control commands; + ENGINE_HAS_CTRL_FUNCTION returns TRUE, + all other commands fail. + if a ctrl() handler and array of control commands was supplied; + ENGINE_HAS_CTRL_FUNCTION returns TRUE, + all other commands proceed processing ... + +If the ENGINE's array of control commands is empty then all other commands will +fail, otherwise; ENGINE_CTRL_GET_FIRST_CMD_TYPE returns the identifier of +the first command supported by the ENGINE, ENGINE_GET_NEXT_CMD_TYPE takes the +identifier of a command supported by the ENGINE and returns the next command +identifier or fails if there are no more, ENGINE_CMD_FROM_NAME takes a string +name for a command and returns the corresponding identifier or fails if no such +command name exists, and the remaining commands take a command identifier and +return properties of the corresponding commands. All except +ENGINE_CTRL_GET_FLAGS return the string length of a command name or description, +or populate a supplied character buffer with a copy of the command name or +description. ENGINE_CTRL_GET_FLAGS returns a bitwise-OR'd mask of the following +possible values; + + #define ENGINE_CMD_FLAG_NUMERIC (unsigned int)0x0001 + #define ENGINE_CMD_FLAG_STRING (unsigned int)0x0002 + #define ENGINE_CMD_FLAG_NO_INPUT (unsigned int)0x0004 + #define ENGINE_CMD_FLAG_INTERNAL (unsigned int)0x0008 + +If the ENGINE_CMD_FLAG_INTERNAL flag is set, then any other flags are purely +informational to the caller - this flag will prevent the command being usable +for any higher-level ENGINE functions such as ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). +"INTERNAL" commands are not intended to be exposed to text-based configuration +by applications, administrations, users, etc. These can support arbitrary +operations via ENGINE_ctrl(), including passing to and/or from the control +commands data of any arbitrary type. These commands are supported in the +discovery mechanisms simply to allow applications determinie if an ENGINE +supports certain specific commands it might want to use (eg. application "foo" +might query various ENGINEs to see if they implement "FOO_GET_VENDOR_LOGO_GIF" - +and ENGINE could therefore decide whether or not to support this "foo"-specific +extension). + +=head2 Future developments + +The ENGINE API and internal architecture is currently being reviewed. Slated for +possible release in 0.9.8 is support for transparent loading of "dynamic" +ENGINEs (built as self-contained shared-libraries).

Its first argument is a function code B<XXX_F_...>, the second +argument is a reason code B<XXX_R_...>. Function codes are derived +from the function names; reason codes consist of textual error +descriptions. For example, the function ssl23_read() reports a +"handshake failure" as follows: + + SSLerr(SSL_F_SSL23_READ, SSL_R_SSL_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE); + +Function and reason codes should consist of upper case characters, +numbers and underscores only. The error file generation script translates +function codes into function names by looking in the header files +for an appropriate function name, if none is found it just uses +the capitalized form such as "SSL23_READ" in the above example. + +The trailing section of a reason code (after the "_R_") is translated +into lower case and underscores changed to spaces. + +When you are using new function or reason codes, run B<make errors>. +The necessary B<#define>s will then automatically be added to the +sub-library's header file. + +Although a library will normally report errors using its own specific +XXXerr macro, another library's macro can be used. This is normally +only done when a library wants to include ASN1 code which must use +the ASN1err() macro. + +=head2 Adding new libraries + +When adding a new sub-library to OpenSSL, assign it a library number +B<ERR_LIB_XXX>, define a macro XXXerr() (both in B<err.h>), add its +name to B<ERR_str_libraries[]> (in B<crypto/err/err.c>), and add +C<ERR_load_XXX_strings()> to the ERR_load_crypto_strings() function +(in B<crypto/err/err_all.c>). Finally, add an entry + + L XXX xxx.h xxx_err.c + +to B<crypto/err/openssl.ec>, and add B<xxx_err.c> to the Makefile. +Running B<make errors> will then generate a file B<xxx_err.c>, and +add all error codes used in the library to B<xxx.h>. + +Additionally the library include file must have a certain form. +Typically it will initially look like this: + + #ifndef HEADER_XXX_H + #define HEADER_XXX_H + + #ifdef __cplusplus + extern "C" { + #endif + + /* Include files */ + + #include <openssl/bio.h> + #include <openssl/x509.h> + + /* Macros, structures and function prototypes */ + + + /* BEGIN ERROR CODES */ + +The B<BEGIN ERROR CODES> sequence is used by the error code +generation script as the point to place new error codes, any text +after this point will be overwritten when B<make errors> is run. +The closing #endif etc will be automatically added by the script. + +The generated C error code file B<xxx_err.c> will load the header +files B<stdio.h>, B<openssl/err.h> and B<openssl/xxx.h> so the +header file must load any additional header files containing any +definitions it uses. + +=head1 USING ERROR CODES IN EXTERNAL LIBRARIES + +It is also possible to use OpenSSL's error code scheme in external +libraries.

The hash table entries +can be arbitrary structures. Usually they consist of key and value +fields. + +lh_new() creates a new B<LHASH> structure to store arbitrary data +entries, and provides the 'hash' and 'compare' callbacks to be used in +organising the table's entries. The B<hash> callback takes a pointer +to a table entry as its argument and returns an unsigned long hash +value for its key field. The hash value is normally truncated to a +power of 2, so make sure that your hash function returns well mixed +low order bits. The B<compare> callback takes two arguments (pointers +to two hash table entries), and returns 0 if their keys are equal, +non-zero otherwise. If your hash table will contain items of some +particular type and the B<hash> and B<compare> callbacks hash/compare +these types, then the B<DECLARE_LHASH_HASH_FN> and +B<IMPLEMENT_LHASH_COMP_FN> macros can be used to create callback +wrappers of the prototypes required by lh_new().

Allocated hash table +entries will not be freed; consider using lh_doall() to deallocate any +remaining entries in the hash table (see below). + +lh_insert() inserts the structure pointed to by B<data> into B<table>. +If there already is an entry with the same key, the old value is +replaced. Note that lh_insert() stores pointers, the data are not +copied. + +lh_delete() deletes an entry from B<table>. + +lh_retrieve() looks up an entry in B<table>. Normally, B<data> is +a structure with the key field(s) set; the function will return a +pointer to a fully populated structure. + +lh_doall() will, for every entry in the hash table, call B<func> with +the data item as its parameter. For lh_doall() and lh_doall_arg(), +function pointer casting should be avoided in the callbacks (see +B<NOTE>) - instead, either declare the callbacks to match the +prototype required in lh_new() or use the declare/implement macros to +create type-safe wrappers that cast variables prior to calling your +type-specific callbacks. An example of this is illustrated here where +the callback is used to cleanup resources for items in the hash table +prior to the hashtable itself being deallocated: + + /* Cleans up resources belonging to 'a' (this is implemented elsewhere) */ + void STUFF_cleanup(STUFF *a); + /* Implement a prototype-compatible wrapper for "STUFF_cleanup" */ + IMPLEMENT_LHASH_DOALL_FN(STUFF_cleanup, STUFF *) + /* ... then later in the code ... */ + /* So to run "STUFF_cleanup" against all items in a hash table ... */ + lh_doall(hashtable, LHASH_DOALL_FN(STUFF_cleanup)); + /* Then the hash table itself can be deallocated */ + lh_free(hashtable); + +When doing this, be careful if you delete entries from the hash table +in your callbacks: the table may decrease in size, moving the item +that you are currently on down lower in the hash table - this could +cause some entries to be skipped during the iteration. The second +best solution to this problem is to set hash-E<gt>down_load=0 before +you start (which will stop the hash table ever decreasing in size). +The best solution is probably to avoid deleting items from the hash +table inside a "doall" callback! + +lh_doall_arg() is the same as lh_doall() except that B<func> will be +called with B<arg> as the second argument and B<func> should be of +type B<LHASH_DOALL_ARG_FN_TYPE> (a callback prototype that is passed +both the table entry and an extra argument). As with lh_doall(), you +can instead choose to declare your callback with a prototype matching +the types you are dealing with and use the declare/implement macros to +create compatible wrappers that cast variables before calling your +type-specific callbacks. An example of this is demonstrated here +(printing all hash table entries to a BIO that is provided by the +caller): + + /* Prints item 'a' to 'output_bio' (this is implemented elsewhere) */ + void STUFF_print(const STUFF *a, BIO *output_bio); + /* Implement a prototype-compatible wrapper for "STUFF_print" */ + static IMPLEMENT_LHASH_DOALL_ARG_FN(STUFF_print, const STUFF *, BIO *) + /* ... then later in the code ... */ + /* Print out the entire hashtable to a particular BIO */ + lh_doall_arg(hashtable, LHASH_DOALL_ARG_FN(STUFF_print), logging_bio); + +lh_error() can be used to determine if an error occurred in the last +operation. lh_error() is a macro. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +lh_new() returns B<NULL> on error, otherwise a pointer to the new +B<LHASH> structure. + +When a hash table entry is replaced, lh_insert() returns the value +being replaced. B<NULL> is returned on normal operation and on error. + +lh_delete() returns the entry being deleted. B<NULL> is returned if +there is no such value in the hash table. + +lh_retrieve() returns the hash table entry if it has been found, +B<NULL> otherwise. + +lh_error() returns 1 if an error occurred in the last operation, 0 +otherwise. + +lh_free(), lh_doall() and lh_doall_arg() return no values. + +=head1 NOTE + +The various LHASH macros and callback types exist to make it possible +to write type-safe code without resorting to function-prototype +casting - an evil that makes application code much harder to +audit/verify and also opens the window of opportunity for stack +corruption and other hard-to-find bugs. It also, apparently, violates +ANSI-C. + +The LHASH code regards table entries as constant data. As such, it +internally represents lh_insert()'d items with a "const void *" +pointer type. This is why callbacks such as those used by lh_doall() +and lh_doall_arg() declare their prototypes with "const", even for the +parameters that pass back the table items' data pointers - for +consistency, user-provided data is "const" at all times as far as the +LHASH code is concerned. However, as callers are themselves providing +these pointers, they can choose whether they too should be treating +all such parameters as constant. + +As an example, a hash table may be maintained by code that, for +reasons of encapsulation, has only "const" access to the data being +indexed in the hash table (ie. it is returned as "const" from +elsewhere in their code) - in this case the LHASH prototypes are +appropriate as-is. Conversely, if the caller is responsible for the +life-time of the data in question, then they may well wish to make +modifications to table item passed back in the lh_doall() or +lh_doall_arg() callbacks (see the "STUFF_cleanup" example above). If +so, the caller can either cast the "const" away (if they're providing +the raw callbacks themselves) or use the macros to declare/implement +the wrapper functions without "const" types. + +Callers that only have "const" access to data they're indexing in a +table, yet declare callbacks without constant types (or cast the +"const" away themselves), are therefore creating their own risks/bugs +without being encouraged to do so by the API. On a related note, +those auditing code should pay special attention to any instances of +DECLARE/IMPLEMENT_LHASH_DOALL_[ARG_]_FN macros that provide types +without any "const" qualifiers. + +=head1 BUGS + +lh_insert() returns B<NULL> both for success and error. + +=head1 INTERNALS + +The following description is based on the SSLeay documentation: + +The B<lhash> library implements a hash table described in the +I<Communications of the ACM> in 1991. What makes this hash table +different is that as the table fills, the hash table is increased (or +decreased) in size via OPENSSL_realloc(). When a 'resize' is done, instead of +all hashes being redistributed over twice as many 'buckets', one +bucket is split. So when an 'expand' is done, there is only a minimal +cost to redistribute some values. Subsequent inserts will cause more +single 'bucket' redistributions but there will never be a sudden large +cost due to redistributing all the 'buckets'. + +The state for a particular hash table is kept in the B<LHASH> structure. +The decision to increase or decrease the hash table size is made +depending on the 'load' of the hash table. The load is the number of +items in the hash table divided by the size of the hash table. The +default values are as follows. If (hash->up_load E<lt> load) =E<gt> +expand. if (hash-E<gt>down_load E<gt> load) =E<gt> contract. The +B<up_load> has a default value of 1 and B<down_load> has a default value +of 2. These numbers can be modified by the application by just +playing with the B<up_load> and B<down_load> variables. The 'load' is +kept in a form which is multiplied by 256. So +hash-E<gt>up_load=8*256; will cause a load of 8 to be set. + +If you are interested in performance the field to watch is +num_comp_calls. The hash library keeps track of the 'hash' value for +each item so when a lookup is done, the 'hashes' are compared, if +there is a match, then a full compare is done, and +hash-E<gt>num_comp_calls is incremented. If num_comp_calls is not equal +to num_delete plus num_retrieve it means that your hash function is +generating hashes that are the same for different values. It is +probably worth changing your hash function if this is the case because +even if your hash table has 10 items in a 'bucket', it can be searched +with 10 B<unsigned long> compares and 10 linked list traverses. This +will be much less expensive that 10 calls to your compare function. + +lh_strhash() is a demo string hashing function: + + unsigned long lh_strhash(const char *c); + +Since the B<LHASH> routines would normally be passed structures, this +routine would not normally be passed to lh_new(), rather it would be +used in the function passed to lh_new(). + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<lh_stats(3)|lh_stats(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +The B<lhash> library is available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. +lh_error() was added in SSLeay 0.9.1b. + +This manpage is derived from the SSLeay documentation. + +In OpenSSL 0.9.7, all lhash functions that were passed function pointers +were changed for better type safety, and the function types LHASH_COMP_FN_TYPE, +LHASH_HASH_FN_TYPE, LHASH_DOALL_FN_TYPE and LHASH_DOALL_ARG_FN_TYPE +became available. + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/md5.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/md5.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..d11d5c32c --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/md5.pod @@ -0,0 +1,101 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +MD2, MD4, MD5, MD2_Init, MD2_Update, MD2_Final, MD4_Init, MD4_Update, +MD4_Final, MD5_Init, MD5_Update, MD5_Final - MD2, MD4, and MD5 hash functions + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + #include <openssl/md2.h> + + unsigned char *MD2(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n, + unsigned char *md); + + int MD2_Init(MD2_CTX *c); + int MD2_Update(MD2_CTX *c, const unsigned char *data, + unsigned long len); + int MD2_Final(unsigned char *md, MD2_CTX *c); + + + #include <openssl/md4.h> + + unsigned char *MD4(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n, + unsigned char *md); + + int MD4_Init(MD4_CTX *c); + int MD4_Update(MD4_CTX *c, const void *data, + unsigned long len); + int MD4_Final(unsigned char *md, MD4_CTX *c); + + + #include <openssl/md5.h> + + unsigned char *MD5(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n, + unsigned char *md); + + int MD5_Init(MD5_CTX *c); + int MD5_Update(MD5_CTX *c, const void *data, + unsigned long len); + int MD5_Final(unsigned char *md, MD5_CTX *c); + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +MD2, MD4, and MD5 are cryptographic hash functions with a 128 bit output. + +MD2(), MD4(), and MD5() compute the MD2, MD4, and MD5 message digest +of the B<n> bytes at B<d> and place it in B<md> (which must have space +for MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == MD4_DIGEST_LENGTH == MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 +bytes of output).

In +this sense PEM format is simply base64 encoded data surrounded +by header lines. + +For more details about the meaning of arguments see the +B<PEM FUNCTION ARGUMENTS> section. + +Each operation has four functions associated with it. For +clarity the term "B<foobar> functions" will be used to collectively +refer to the PEM_read_bio_foobar(), PEM_read_foobar(), +PEM_write_bio_foobar() and PEM_write_foobar() functions. + +The B<PrivateKey> functions read or write a private key in +PEM format using an EVP_PKEY structure. The write routines use +"traditional" private key format and can handle both RSA and DSA +private keys. The read functions can additionally transparently +handle PKCS#8 format encrypted and unencrypted keys too. + +PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() and PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() +write a private key in an EVP_PKEY structure in PKCS#8 +EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo format using PKCS#5 v2.0 password based encryption +algorithms. The B<cipher> argument specifies the encryption algoritm to +use: unlike all other PEM routines the encryption is applied at the +PKCS#8 level and not in the PEM headers. If B<cipher> is NULL then no +encryption is used and a PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo structure is used instead. + +PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey_nid() and PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey_nid() +also write out a private key as a PKCS#8 EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo however +it uses PKCS#5 v1.5 or PKCS#12 encryption algorithms instead. The algorithm +to use is specified in the B<nid> parameter and should be the NID of the +corresponding OBJECT IDENTIFIER (see NOTES section). + +The B<PUBKEY> functions process a public key using an EVP_PKEY +structure. The public key is encoded as a SubjectPublicKeyInfo +structure. + +The B<RSAPrivateKey> functions process an RSA private key using an +RSA structure. It handles the same formats as the B<PrivateKey> +functions but an error occurs if the private key is not RSA. + +The B<RSAPublicKey> functions process an RSA public key using an +RSA structure. The public key is encoded using a PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey +structure. + +The B<RSA_PUBKEY> functions also process an RSA public key using +an RSA structure. However the public key is encoded using a +SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure and an error occurs if the public +key is not RSA. + +The B<DSAPrivateKey> functions process a DSA private key using a +DSA structure. It handles the same formats as the B<PrivateKey> +functions but an error occurs if the private key is not DSA. + +The B<DSA_PUBKEY> functions process a DSA public key using +a DSA structure. The public key is encoded using a +SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure and an error occurs if the public +key is not DSA. + +The B<DSAparams> functions process DSA parameters using a DSA +structure. The parameters are encoded using a foobar structure. + +The B<DHparams> functions process DH parameters using a DH +structure. The parameters are encoded using a PKCS#3 DHparameter +structure. + +The B<X509> functions process an X509 certificate using an X509 +structure. They will also process a trusted X509 certificate but +any trust settings are discarded. + +The B<X509_AUX> functions process a trusted X509 certificate using +an X509 structure. + +The B<X509_REQ> and B<X509_REQ_NEW> functions process a PKCS#10 +certificate request using an X509_REQ structure. The B<X509_REQ> +write functions use B<CERTIFICATE REQUEST> in the header whereas +the B<X509_REQ_NEW> functions use B<NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST> +(as required by some CAs). The B<X509_REQ> read functions will +handle either form so there are no B<X509_REQ_NEW> read functions. + +The B<X509_CRL> functions process an X509 CRL using an X509_CRL +structure. + +The B<PKCS7> functions process a PKCS#7 ContentInfo using a PKCS7 +structure. + +The B<NETSCAPE_CERT_SEQUENCE> functions process a Netscape Certificate +Sequence using a NETSCAPE_CERT_SEQUENCE structure. + +=head1 PEM FUNCTION ARGUMENTS + +The PEM functions have many common arguments. + +The B<bp> BIO parameter (if present) specifies the BIO to read from +or write to. + +The B<fp> FILE parameter (if present) specifies the FILE pointer to +read from or write to. + +The PEM read functions all take an argument B<TYPE **x> and return +a B<TYPE *> pointer. Where B<TYPE> is whatever structure the function +uses. If B<x> is NULL then the parameter is ignored. If B<x> is not +NULL but B<*x> is NULL then the structure returned will be written +to B<*x>. If neither B<x> nor B<*x> is NULL then an attempt is made +to reuse the structure at B<*x> (but see BUGS and EXAMPLES sections). +Irrespective of the value of B<x> a pointer to the structure is always +returned (or NULL if an error occurred). + +The PEM functions which write private keys take an B<enc> parameter +which specifies the encryption algorithm to use, encryption is done +at the PEM level. If this parameter is set to NULL then the private +key is written in unencrypted form. + +The B<cb> argument is the callback to use when querying for the pass +phrase used for encrypted PEM structures (normally only private keys). + +For the PEM write routines if the B<kstr> parameter is not NULL then +B<klen> bytes at B<kstr> are used as the passphrase and B<cb> is +ignored. + +If the B<cb> parameters is set to NULL and the B<u> parameter is not +NULL then the B<u> parameter is interpreted as a null terminated string +to use as the passphrase. If both B<cb> and B<u> are NULL then the +default callback routine is used which will typically prompt for the +passphrase on the current terminal with echoing turned off. + +The default passphrase callback is sometimes inappropriate (for example +in a GUI application) so an alternative can be supplied. The callback +routine has the following form: + + int cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *u); + +B<buf> is the buffer to write the passphrase to. B<size> is the maximum +length of the passphrase (i.e. the size of buf). B<rwflag> is a flag +which is set to 0 when reading and 1 when writing. A typical routine +will ask the user to verify the passphrase (for example by prompting +for it twice) if B<rwflag> is 1. The B<u> parameter has the same +value as the B<u> parameter passed to the PEM routine. It allows +arbitrary data to be passed to the callback by the application +(for example a window handle in a GUI application). The callback +B<must> return the number of characters in the passphrase or 0 if +an error occurred. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +Although the PEM routines take several arguments in almost all applications +most of them are set to 0 or NULL. + +Read a certificate in PEM format from a BIO: + + X509 *x; + x = PEM_read_bio_X509(bp, NULL, 0, NULL); + if (x == NULL) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Alternative method: + + X509 *x = NULL; + if (!PEM_read_bio_X509(bp, &x, 0, NULL)) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Write a certificate to a BIO: + + if (!PEM_write_bio_X509(bp, x)) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Write an unencrypted private key to a FILE pointer: + + if (!PEM_write_PrivateKey(fp, key, NULL, NULL, 0, 0, NULL)) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Write a private key (using traditional format) to a BIO using +triple DES encryption, the pass phrase is prompted for: + + if (!PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey(bp, key, EVP_des_ede3_cbc(), NULL, 0, 0, NULL)) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Write a private key (using PKCS#8 format) to a BIO using triple +DES encryption, using the pass phrase "hello": + + if (!PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey(bp, key, EVP_des_ede3_cbc(), NULL, 0, 0, "hello")) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Read a private key from a BIO using the pass phrase "hello": + + key = PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(bp, NULL, 0, "hello"); + if (key == NULL) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Read a private key from a BIO using a pass phrase callback: + + key = PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(bp, NULL, pass_cb, "My Private Key"); + if (key == NULL) + { + /* Error */ + } + +Skeleton pass phrase callback: + + int pass_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *u); + { + int len; + char *tmp; + /* We'd probably do something else if 'rwflag' is 1 */ + printf("Enter pass phrase for \"%s\"\n", u); + + /* get pass phrase, length 'len' into 'tmp' */ + tmp = "hello"; + len = strlen(tmp); + + if (len <= 0) return 0; + /* if too long, truncate */ + if (len > size) len = size; + memcpy(buf, tmp, len); + return len; + } + +=head1 NOTES + +The old B<PrivateKey> write routines are retained for compatibility. +New applications should write private keys using the +PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() or PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() routines +because they are more secure (they use an iteration count of 2048 whereas +the traditional routines use a count of 1) unless compatibility with older +versions of OpenSSL is important. + +The B<PrivateKey> read routines can be used in all applications because +they handle all formats transparently. + +A frequent cause of problems is attempting to use the PEM routines like +this: + + X509 *x; + PEM_read_bio_X509(bp, &x, 0, NULL); + +this is a bug because an attempt will be made to reuse the data at B<x> +which is an uninitialised pointer. + +=head1 PEM ENCRYPTION FORMAT + +This old B<PrivateKey> routines use a non standard technique for encryption. + +The private key (or other data) takes the following form: + + -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- + Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED + DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,3F17F5316E2BAC89 + + ...base64 encoded data... + -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- + +The line beginning DEK-Info contains two comma separated pieces of information: +the encryption algorithm name as used by EVP_get_cipherbyname() and an 8 +byte B<salt> encoded as a set of hexadecimal digits. + +After this is the base64 encoded encrypted data. + +The encryption key is determined using EVP_bytestokey(), using B<salt> and an +iteration count of 1. The IV used is the value of B<salt> and *not* the IV +returned by EVP_bytestokey(). + +=head1 BUGS + +The PEM read routines in some versions of OpenSSL will not correctly reuse +an existing structure. Therefore the following: + + PEM_read_bio_X509(bp, &x, 0, NULL); + +where B<x> already contains a valid certificate, may not work, whereas: + + X509_free(x); + x = PEM_read_bio_X509(bp, NULL, 0, NULL); + +is guaranteed to work. + +=head1 RETURN CODES + +The read routines return either a pointer to the structure read or NULL +if an error occurred. + +The write routines return 1 for success or 0 for failure. diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/rand.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/rand.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..1c068c85b --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/rand.pod @@ -0,0 +1,175 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +rand - pseudo-random number generator + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + #include <openssl/rand.h> + + int RAND_set_rand_engine(ENGINE *engine); + + int RAND_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int num); + int RAND_pseudo_bytes(unsigned char *buf, int num); + + void RAND_seed(const void *buf, int num); + void RAND_add(const void *buf, int num, int entropy); + int RAND_status(void); + + int RAND_load_file(const char *file, long max_bytes); + int RAND_write_file(const char *file); + const char *RAND_file_name(char *file, size_t num); + + int RAND_egd(const char *path); + + void RAND_set_rand_method(const RAND_METHOD *meth); + const RAND_METHOD *RAND_get_rand_method(void); + RAND_METHOD *RAND_SSLeay(void); + + void RAND_cleanup(void); + + /* For Win32 only */ + void RAND_screen(void); + int RAND_event(UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM); + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +Since the introduction of the ENGINE API, the recommended way of controlling +default implementations is by using the ENGINE API functions.

The +mechanisms described below relate solely to the software PRNG implementation +built in to OpenSSL and used by default. + +These functions implement a cryptographically secure pseudo-random +number generator (PRNG). It is used by other library functions for +example to generate random keys, and applications can use it when they +need randomness. + +A cryptographic PRNG must be seeded with unpredictable data such as +mouse movements or keys pressed at random by the user. This is +described in L<RAND_add(3)|RAND_add(3)>. Its state can be saved in a seed file +(see L<RAND_load_file(3)|RAND_load_file(3)>) to avoid having to go through the +seeding process whenever the application is started. + +L<RAND_bytes(3)|RAND_bytes(3)> describes how to obtain random data from the +PRNG. + +=head1 INTERNALS + +The RAND_SSLeay() method implements a PRNG based on a cryptographic +hash function. + +The following description of its design is based on the SSLeay +documentation: + +First up I will state the things I believe I need for a good RNG. + +=over 4 + +=item 1 + +A good hashing algorithm to mix things up and to convert the RNG 'state' +to random numbers. + +=item 2 + +An initial source of random 'state'. + +=item 3 + +The state should be very large. If the RNG is being used to generate +4096 bit RSA keys, 2 2048 bit random strings are required (at a minimum). +If your RNG state only has 128 bits, you are obviously limiting the +search space to 128 bits, not 2048. I'm probably getting a little +carried away on this last point but it does indicate that it may not be +a bad idea to keep quite a lot of RNG state. It should be easier to +break a cipher than guess the RNG seed data. + +=item 4 + +Any RNG seed data should influence all subsequent random numbers +generated. This implies that any random seed data entered will have +an influence on all subsequent random numbers generated. + +=item 5 + +When using data to seed the RNG state, the data used should not be +extractable from the RNG state. I believe this should be a +requirement because one possible source of 'secret' semi random +data would be a private key or a password. This data must +not be disclosed by either subsequent random numbers or a +'core' dump left by a program crash. + +=item 6 + +Given the same initial 'state', 2 systems should deviate in their RNG state +(and hence the random numbers generated) over time if at all possible. + +=item 7 + +Given the random number output stream, it should not be possible to determine +the RNG state or the next random number. + +=back + +The algorithm is as follows. + +There is global state made up of a 1023 byte buffer (the 'state'), a +working hash value ('md'), and a counter ('count'). + +Whenever seed data is added, it is inserted into the 'state' as +follows. + +The input is chopped up into units of 20 bytes (or less for +the last block). Each of these blocks is run through the hash +function as follows: The data passed to the hash function +is the current 'md', the same number of bytes from the 'state' +(the location determined by in incremented looping index) as +the current 'block', the new key data 'block', and 'count' +(which is incremented after each use). +The result of this is kept in 'md' and also xored into the +'state' at the same locations that were used as input into the +hash function. I +believe this system addresses points 1 (hash function; currently +SHA-1), 3 (the 'state'), 4 (via the 'md'), 5 (by the use of a hash +function and xor). + +When bytes are extracted from the RNG, the following process is used. +For each group of 10 bytes (or less), we do the following: + +Input into the hash function the local 'md' (which is initialized from +the global 'md' before any bytes are generated), the bytes that are to +be overwritten by the random bytes, and bytes from the 'state' +(incrementing looping index). From this digest output (which is kept +in 'md'), the top (up to) 10 bytes are returned to the caller and the +bottom 10 bytes are xored into the 'state'. + +Finally, after we have finished 'num' random bytes for the caller, +'count' (which is incremented) and the local and global 'md' are fed +into the hash function and the results are kept in the global 'md'. + +I believe the above addressed points 1 (use of SHA-1), 6 (by hashing +into the 'state' the 'old' data from the caller that is about to be +overwritten) and 7 (by not using the 10 bytes given to the caller to +update the 'state', but they are used to update 'md'). + +So of the points raised, only 2 is not addressed (but see +L<RAND_add(3)|RAND_add(3)>). + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<BN_rand(3)|BN_rand(3)>, L<RAND_add(3)|RAND_add(3)>, +L<RAND_load_file(3)|RAND_load_file(3)>, L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>, +L<RAND_bytes(3)|RAND_bytes(3)>, +L<RAND_set_rand_method(3)|RAND_set_rand_method(3)>, +L<RAND_cleanup(3)|RAND_cleanup(3)> + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/rc4.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/rc4.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..b6d3a4342 --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/rc4.pod @@ -0,0 +1,62 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +RC4_set_key, RC4 - RC4 encryption + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + #include <openssl/rc4.h> + + void RC4_set_key(RC4_KEY *key, int len, const unsigned char *data); + + void RC4(RC4_KEY *key, unsigned long len, const unsigned char *indata, + unsigned char *outdata); + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +This library implements the Alleged RC4 cipher, which is described for +example in I<Applied Cryptography>.

Through user-written methods +(see L<ui_create(3)|ui_create(3)>), prompting can be done in any way +imaginable, be it plain text prompting, through dialog boxes or from a +cell phone. + +All the functions work through a context of the type UI. This context +contains all the information needed to prompt correctly as well as a +reference to a UI_METHOD, which is an ordered vector of functions that +carry out the actual prompting. + +The first thing to do is to create a UI with UI_new() or UI_new_method(), +then add information to it with the UI_add or UI_dup functions. Also, +user-defined random data can be passed down to the underlying method +through calls to UI_add_user_data. The default UI method doesn't care +about these data, but other methods might. Finally, use UI_process() +to actually perform the prompting and UI_get0_result() to find the result +to the prompt. + +A UI can contain more than one prompt, which are performed in the given +sequence. Each prompt gets an index number which is returned by the +UI_add and UI_dup functions, and has to be used to get the corresponding +result with UI_get0_result(). + +The functions are as follows: + +UI_new() creates a new UI using the default UI method. When done with +this UI, it should be freed using UI_free(). + +UI_new_method() creates a new UI using the given UI method. When done with +this UI, it should be freed using UI_free(). + +UI_OpenSSL() returns the built-in UI method (note: not the default one, +since the default can be changed. See further on). This method is the +most machine/OS dependent part of OpenSSL and normally generates the +most problems when porting. + +UI_free() removes a UI from memory, along with all other pieces of memory +that's connected to it, like duplicated input strings, results and others. + +UI_add_input_string() and UI_add_verify_string() add a prompt to the UI, +as well as flags and a result buffer and the desired minimum and maximum +sizes of the result. The given information is used to prompt for +information, for example a password, and to verify a password (i.e. having +the user enter it twice and check that the same string was entered twice). +UI_add_verify_string() takes and extra argument that should be a pointer +to the result buffer of the input string that it's supposed to verify, or +verification will fail. + +UI_add_input_boolean() adds a prompt to the UI that's supposed to be answered +in a boolean way, with a single character for yes and a different character +for no. A set of characters that can be used to cancel the prompt is given +as well. The prompt itself is really divided in two, one part being the +descriptive text (given through the I<prompt> argument) and one describing +the possible answers (given through the I<action_desc> argument). + +UI_add_info_string() and UI_add_error_string() add strings that are shown at +the same time as the prompt for extra information or to show an error string. +The difference between the two is only conceptual. With the builtin method, +there's no technical difference between them. Other methods may make a +difference between them, however. + +The flags currently supported are UI_INPUT_FLAG_ECHO, which is relevant for +UI_add_input_string() and will have the users response be echoed (when +prompting for a password, this flag should obviously not be used, and +UI_INPUT_FLAG_DEFAULT_PWD, which means that a default password of some +sort will be used (completely depending on the application and the UI +method). + +UI_dup_input_string(), UI_dup_verify_string(), UI_dup_input_boolean(), +UI_dup_info_string() and UI_dup_error_string() are basically the same +as their UI_add counterparts, except that they make their own copies +of all strings. + +UI_construct_prompt() is a helper function that can be used to create +a prompt from two pieces of information: an description and a name. +The default constructor (if there is none provided by the method used) +creates a string "Enter I<description> for I<name>:". With the +description "pass phrase" and the file name "foo.key", that becomes +"Enter pass phrase for foo.key:". Other methods may create whatever +string and may include encodings that will be processed by the other +method functions. + +UI_add_user_data() adds a piece of memory for the method to use at any +time. The builtin UI method doesn't care about this info. Note that several +calls to this function doesn't add data, it replaces the previous blob +with the one given as argument. + +UI_get0_user_data() retrieves the data that has last been given to the +UI with UI_add_user_data(). + +UI_get0_result() returns a pointer to the result buffer associated with +the information indexed by I<i>. + +UI_process() goes through the information given so far, does all the printing +and prompting and returns. + +UI_ctrl() adds extra control for the application author. For now, it +understands two commands: UI_CTRL_PRINT_ERRORS, which makes UI_process() +print the OpenSSL error stack as part of processing the UI, and +UI_CTRL_IS_REDOABLE, which returns a flag saying if the used UI can +be used again or not. + +UI_set_default_method() changes the default UI method to the one given. + +UI_get_default_method() returns a pointer to the current default UI method. + +UI_get_method() returns the UI method associated with a given UI. + +UI_set_method() changes the UI method associated with a given UI. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ui_create(3)|ui_create(3)>, L<ui_compat(3)|ui_compat(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +The UI section was first introduced in OpenSSL 0.9.7. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Richard Levitte (richard@levitte.org) for the OpenSSL project +(http://www.openssl.org). + +=cut diff --git a/openssl/doc/crypto/ui_compat.pod b/openssl/doc/crypto/ui_compat.pod new file mode 100644 index 000000000..9ab3c69bf --- /dev/null +++ b/openssl/doc/crypto/ui_compat.pod @@ -0,0 +1,55 @@ +=pod + +=head1 NAME + +des_read_password, des_read_2passwords, des_read_pw_string, des_read_pw - +Compatibility user interface functions + +=head1 SYNOPSIS + + int des_read_password(DES_cblock *key,const char *prompt,int verify); + int des_read_2passwords(DES_cblock *key1,DES_cblock *key2, + const char *prompt,int verify); + + int des_read_pw_string(char *buf,int length,const char *prompt,int verify); + int des_read_pw(char *buf,char *buff,int size,const char *prompt,int verify); + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +The DES library contained a few routines to prompt for passwords.

A X.509 CRL +(certificate revocation list) is a tool to help determine if a +certificate is still valid. The exact definition of those can be +found in the X.509 document from ITU-T, or in RFC3280 from PKIX. +In OpenSSL, the type X509 is used to express such a certificate, and +the type X509_CRL is used to express a CRL. + +A related structure is a certificate request, defined in PKCS#10 from +RSA Security, Inc, also reflected in RFC2896.

In each case a line: + +x509_extensions = extension_section + +indicates which section contains the extensions. In the case of 'req' the +extension section is used when the -x509 option is present to create a +self signed root certificate. + +The 'x509' utility also supports extensions when it signs a certificate. +The -extfile option is used to set the configuration file containing the +extensions. In this case a line with: + +extensions = extension_section + +in the nameless (default) section is used. If no such line is included then +it uses the default section. + +You can also add extensions to CRLs: a line + +crl_extensions = crl_extension_section + +will include extensions when the -gencrl option is used with the 'ca' utility. +You can add any extension to a CRL but of the supported extensions only +issuerAltName and authorityKeyIdentifier make any real sense. Note: these are +CRL extensions NOT CRL *entry* extensions which cannot currently be generated. +CRL entry extensions can be displayed. + +NB. At this time Netscape Communicator rejects V2 CRLs: to get an old V1 CRL +you should not include a crl_extensions line in the configuration file. + +As with all configuration files you can use the inbuilt environment expansion +to allow the values to be passed in the environment. Therefore if you have +several extension sections used for different purposes you can have a line: + +x509_extensions = $ENV::ENV_EXT + +and set the ENV_EXT environment variable before calling the relevant utility. + +EXTENSION SYNTAX. + +Extensions have the basic form: + +extension_name=[critical,] extension_options + +the use of the critical option makes the extension critical. Extreme caution +should be made when using the critical flag. If an extension is marked +as critical then any client that does not understand the extension should +reject it as invalid. Some broken software will reject certificates which +have *any* critical extensions (these violates PKIX but we have to live +with it). + +There are three main types of extension: string extensions, multi-valued +extensions, and raw extensions. + +String extensions simply have a string which contains either the value itself +or how it is obtained. + +For example: + +nsComment="This is a Comment" + +Multi-valued extensions have a short form and a long form. The short form +is a list of names and values: + +basicConstraints=critical,CA:true,pathlen:1 + +The long form allows the values to be placed in a separate section: + +basicConstraints=critical,@bs_section + +[bs_section] + +CA=true +pathlen=1 + +Both forms are equivalent. However it should be noted that in some cases the +same name can appear multiple times, for example, + +subjectAltName=email:steve@here,email:steve@there + +in this case an equivalent long form is: + +subjectAltName=@alt_section + +[alt_section] + +email.1=steve@here +email.2=steve@there + +This is because the configuration file code cannot handle the same name +occurring twice in the same section. + +The syntax of raw extensions is governed by the extension code: it can +for example contain data in multiple sections. The correct syntax to +use is defined by the extension code itself: check out the certificate +policies extension for an example. + +There are two ways to encode arbitrary extensions. + +The first way is to use the word ASN1 followed by the extension content +using the same syntax as ASN1_generate_nconf(). For example: + +1.2.3.4=critical,ASN1:UTF8String:Some random data + +1.2.3.4=ASN1:SEQUENCE:seq_sect + +[seq_sect] + +field1 = UTF8:field1 +field2 = UTF8:field2 + +It is also possible to use the word DER to include arbitrary data in any +extension. + +1.2.3.4=critical,DER:01:02:03:04 +1.2.3.4=DER:01020304 + +The value following DER is a hex dump of the DER encoding of the extension +Any extension can be placed in this form to override the default behaviour. +For example: + +basicConstraints=critical,DER:00:01:02:03 + +WARNING: DER should be used with caution. It is possible to create totally +invalid extensions unless care is taken. + +CURRENTLY SUPPORTED EXTENSIONS. + +If you aren't sure about extensions then they can be largely ignored: its only +when you want to do things like restrict certificate usage when you need to +worry about them. + +The only extension that a beginner might want to look at is Basic Constraints. +If in addition you want to try Netscape object signing the you should also +look at Netscape Certificate Type. + +Literal String extensions. + +In each case the 'value' of the extension is placed directly in the +extension. Currently supported extensions in this category are: nsBaseUrl, +nsRevocationUrl, nsCaRevocationUrl, nsRenewalUrl, nsCaPolicyUrl, +nsSslServerName and nsComment. + +For example: + +nsComment="This is a test comment" + +Bit Strings. + +Bit string extensions just consist of a list of supported bits, currently +two extensions are in this category: PKIX keyUsage and the Netscape specific +nsCertType. + +nsCertType (netscape certificate type) takes the flags: client, server, email, +objsign, reserved, sslCA, emailCA, objCA. + +keyUsage (PKIX key usage) takes the flags: digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, +keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment, keyAgreement, keyCertSign, cRLSign, +encipherOnly, decipherOnly. + +For example: + +nsCertType=server + +keyUsage=digitalSignature, nonRepudiation + +Hints on Netscape Certificate Type. + +Other than Basic Constraints this is the only extension a beginner might +want to use, if you want to try Netscape object signing, otherwise it can +be ignored. + +If you want a certificate that can be used just for object signing then: + +nsCertType=objsign + +will do the job. If you want to use it as a normal end user and server +certificate as well then + +nsCertType=objsign,email,server + +is more appropriate. You cannot use a self signed certificate for object +signing (well Netscape signtool can but it cheats!) so you need to create +a CA certificate and sign an end user certificate with it. + +Side note: If you want to conform to the Netscape specifications then you +should really also set: + +nsCertType=objCA + +in the *CA* certificate for just an object signing CA and + +nsCertType=objCA,emailCA,sslCA + +for everything. Current Netscape software doesn't enforce this so it can +be omitted. + +Basic Constraints. + +This is generally the only extension you need to worry about for simple +applications. If you want your certificate to be usable as a CA certificate +(in addition to an end user certificate) then you set this to: + +basicConstraints=CA:TRUE + +if you want to be certain the certificate cannot be used as a CA then do: + +basicConstraints=CA:FALSE + +The rest of this section describes more advanced usage. + +Basic constraints is a multi-valued extension that supports a CA and an +optional pathlen option. The CA option takes the values true and false and +pathlen takes an integer. Note if the CA option is false the pathlen option +should be omitted. + +The pathlen parameter indicates the maximum number of CAs that can appear +below this one in a chain. So if you have a CA with a pathlen of zero it can +only be used to sign end user certificates and not further CAs. This all +assumes that the software correctly interprets this extension of course. + +Examples: + +basicConstraints=CA:TRUE +basicConstraints=critical,CA:TRUE, pathlen:0 + +NOTE: for a CA to be considered valid it must have the CA option set to +TRUE. An end user certificate MUST NOT have the CA value set to true. +According to PKIX recommendations it should exclude the extension entirely, +however some software may require CA set to FALSE for end entity certificates. + +Extended Key Usage. + +This extensions consists of a list of usages. + +These can either be object short names of the dotted numerical form of OIDs. +While any OID can be used only certain values make sense. In particular the +following PKIX, NS and MS values are meaningful: + +Value Meaning +----- ------- +serverAuth SSL/TLS Web Server Authentication. +clientAuth SSL/TLS Web Client Authentication. +codeSigning Code signing. +emailProtection E-mail Protection (S/MIME). +timeStamping Trusted Timestamping +msCodeInd Microsoft Individual Code Signing (authenticode) +msCodeCom Microsoft Commercial Code Signing (authenticode) +msCTLSign Microsoft Trust List Signing +msSGC Microsoft Server Gated Crypto +msEFS Microsoft Encrypted File System +nsSGC Netscape Server Gated Crypto + +For example, under IE5 a CA can be used for any purpose: by including a list +of the above usages the CA can be restricted to only authorised uses. + +Note: software packages may place additional interpretations on certificate +use, in particular some usages may only work for selected CAs. Don't for example +expect just including msSGC or nsSGC will automatically mean that a certificate +can be used for SGC ("step up" encryption) otherwise anyone could use it. + +Examples: + +extendedKeyUsage=critical,codeSigning,1.2.3.4 +extendedKeyUsage=nsSGC,msSGC + +Subject Key Identifier. + +This is really a string extension and can take two possible values. Either +a hex string giving details of the extension value to include or the word +'hash' which then automatically follow PKIX guidelines in selecting and +appropriate key identifier. The use of the hex string is strongly discouraged. + +Example: subjectKeyIdentifier=hash + +Authority Key Identifier. + +The authority key identifier extension permits two options. keyid and issuer: +both can take the optional value "always". + +If the keyid option is present an attempt is made to copy the subject key +identifier from the parent certificate. If the value "always" is present +then an error is returned if the option fails. + +The issuer option copies the issuer and serial number from the issuer +certificate. Normally this will only be done if the keyid option fails or +is not included: the "always" flag will always include the value. + +Subject Alternative Name. + +The subject alternative name extension allows various literal values to be +included in the configuration file. These include "email" (an email address) +"URI" a uniform resource indicator, "DNS" (a DNS domain name), RID (a +registered ID: OBJECT IDENTIFIER), IP (and IP address) and otherName. + +Also the email option include a special 'copy' value. This will automatically +include and email addresses contained in the certificate subject name in +the extension. + +otherName can include arbitrary data associated with an OID: the value +should be the OID followed by a semicolon and the content in standard +ASN1_generate_nconf() format. + +Examples: + +subjectAltName=email:copy,email:my@other.address,URI:http://my.url.here/ +subjectAltName=email:my@other.address,RID:1.2.3.4 +subjectAltName=otherName:1.2.3.4;UTF8:some other identifier + +Issuer Alternative Name. + +The issuer alternative name option supports all the literal options of +subject alternative name. It does *not* support the email:copy option because +that would not make sense. It does support an additional issuer:copy option +that will copy all the subject alternative name values from the issuer +certificate (if possible). + +Example: + +issuserAltName = issuer:copy + +Authority Info Access. + +The authority information access extension gives details about how to access +certain information relating to the CA. Its syntax is accessOID;location +where 'location' has the same syntax as subject alternative name (except +that email:copy is not supported). accessOID can be any valid OID but only +certain values are meaningful for example OCSP and caIssuers. OCSP gives the +location of an OCSP responder: this is used by Netscape PSM and other software. + +Example: + +authorityInfoAccess = OCSP;URI:http://ocsp.my.host/ +authorityInfoAccess = caIssuers;URI:http://my.ca/ca.html + +CRL distribution points. + +This is a multi-valued extension that supports all the literal options of +subject alternative name. Of the few software packages that currently interpret +this extension most only interpret the URI option. + +Currently each option will set a new DistributionPoint with the fullName +field set to the given value. + +Other fields like cRLissuer and reasons cannot currently be set or displayed: +at this time no examples were available that used these fields. + +If you see this extension with <UNSUPPORTED> when you attempt to print it out +or it doesn't appear to display correctly then let me know, including the +certificate (mail me at steve@openssl.org) . + +Examples: + +crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://www.myhost.com/myca.crl +crlDistributionPoints=URI:http://www.my.com/my.crl,URI:http://www.oth.com/my.crl + +Certificate Policies. + +This is a RAW extension. It attempts to display the contents of this extension: +unfortunately this extension is often improperly encoded. + +The certificate policies extension will rarely be used in practice: few +software packages interpret it correctly or at all. IE5 does partially +support this extension: but it needs the 'ia5org' option because it will +only correctly support a broken encoding. Of the options below only the +policy OID, explicitText and CPS options are displayed with IE5. + +All the fields of this extension can be set by using the appropriate syntax. + +If you follow the PKIX recommendations of not including any qualifiers and just +using only one OID then you just include the value of that OID. Multiple OIDs +can be set separated by commas, for example: + +certificatePolicies= 1.2.4.5, 1.1.3.4 + +If you wish to include qualifiers then the policy OID and qualifiers need to +be specified in a separate section: this is done by using the @section syntax +instead of a literal OID value. + +The section referred to must include the policy OID using the name +policyIdentifier, cPSuri qualifiers can be included using the syntax: + +CPS.nnn=value + +userNotice qualifiers can be set using the syntax: + +userNotice.nnn=@notice + +The value of the userNotice qualifier is specified in the relevant section. +This section can include explicitText, organization and noticeNumbers +options. explicitText and organization are text strings, noticeNumbers is a +comma separated list of numbers. The organization and noticeNumbers options +(if included) must BOTH be present. If you use the userNotice option with IE5 +then you need the 'ia5org' option at the top level to modify the encoding: +otherwise it will not be interpreted properly. + +Example: + +certificatePolicies=ia5org,1.2.3.4,1.5.6.7.8,@polsect + +[polsect] + +policyIdentifier = 1.3.5.8 +CPS.1="http://my.host.name/" +CPS.2="http://my.your.name/" +userNotice.1=@notice + +[notice] + +explicitText="Explicit Text Here" +organization="Organisation Name" +noticeNumbers=1,2,3,4 + +TECHNICAL NOTE: the ia5org option changes the type of the 'organization' field, +according to PKIX it should be of type DisplayText but Verisign uses an +IA5STRING and IE5 needs this too. + +Display only extensions. + +Some extensions are only partially supported and currently are only displayed +but cannot be set. These include private key usage period, CRL number, and +CRL reason. + +============================================================================== + X509V3 Extension code: programmers guide +============================================================================== + +The purpose of the extension code is twofold. It allows an extension to be +created from a string or structure describing its contents and it prints out an +extension in a human or machine readable form. + +1. Initialisation and cleanup. + +No special initialisation is needed before calling the extension functions. +You used to have to call X509V3_add_standard_extensions(); but this is no longer +required and this function no longer does anything. + +void X509V3_EXT_cleanup(void); + +This function should be called to cleanup the extension code if any custom +extensions have been added. If no custom extensions have been added then this +call does nothing. After this call all custom extension code is freed up but +you can still use the standard extensions. + +2. Printing and parsing extensions. + +The simplest way to print out extensions is via the standard X509 printing +routines: if you use the standard X509_print() function, the supported +extensions will be printed out automatically. + +The following functions allow finer control over extension display: + +int X509V3_EXT_print(BIO *out, X509_EXTENSION *ext, int flag, int indent); +int X509V3_EXT_print_fp(FILE *out, X509_EXTENSION *ext, int flag, int indent); + +These two functions print out an individual extension to a BIO or FILE pointer. +Currently the flag argument is unused and should be set to 0. The 'indent' +argument is the number of spaces to indent each line. + +void *X509V3_EXT_d2i(X509_EXTENSION *ext); + +This function parses an extension and returns its internal structure. The +precise structure you get back depends on the extension being parsed. If the +extension if basicConstraints you will get back a pointer to a +BASIC_CONSTRAINTS structure. Check out the source in crypto/x509v3 for more +details about the structures returned. The returned structure should be freed +after use using the relevant free function, BASIC_CONSTRAINTS_free() for +example. + +void * X509_get_ext_d2i(X509 *x, int nid, int *crit, int *idx); +void * X509_CRL_get_ext_d2i(X509_CRL *x, int nid, int *crit, int *idx); +void * X509_REVOKED_get_ext_d2i(X509_REVOKED *x, int nid, int *crit, int *idx); +void * X509V3_get_d2i(STACK_OF(X509_EXTENSION) *x, int nid, int *crit, int *idx); + +These functions combine the operations of searching for extensions and +parsing them. They search a certificate, a CRL a CRL entry or a stack +of extensions respectively for extension whose NID is 'nid' and return +the parsed result of NULL if an error occurred. For example: + +BASIC_CONSTRAINTS *bs; +bs = X509_get_ext_d2i(cert, NID_basic_constraints, NULL, NULL); + +This will search for the basicConstraints extension and either return +it value or NULL. NULL can mean either the extension was not found, it +occurred more than once or it could not be parsed. + +If 'idx' is NULL then an extension is only parsed if it occurs precisely +once. This is standard behaviour because extensions normally cannot occur +more than once. If however more than one extension of the same type can +occur it can be used to parse successive extensions for example: + +int i; +void *ext; + +i = -1; +for(;;) { + ext = X509_get_ext_d2i(x, nid, crit, &idx); + if(ext == NULL) break; + /* Do something with ext */ +} + +If 'crit' is not NULL and the extension was found then the int it points to +is set to 1 for critical extensions and 0 for non critical. Therefore if the +function returns NULL but 'crit' is set to 0 or 1 then the extension was +found but it could not be parsed. + +The int pointed to by crit will be set to -1 if the extension was not found +and -2 if the extension occurred more than once (this will only happen if +idx is NULL). In both cases the function will return NULL. + +3. Generating extensions. + +An extension will typically be generated from a configuration file, or some +other kind of configuration database. + +int X509V3_EXT_add_conf(LHASH *conf, X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *section, + X509 *cert); +int X509V3_EXT_CRL_add_conf(LHASH *conf, X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *section, + X509_CRL *crl); + +These functions add all the extensions in the given section to the given +certificate or CRL. They will normally be called just before the certificate +or CRL is due to be signed. Both return 0 on error on non zero for success. + +In each case 'conf' is the LHASH pointer of the configuration file to use +and 'section' is the section containing the extension details. + +See the 'context functions' section for a description of the ctx parameter. + + +X509_EXTENSION *X509V3_EXT_conf(LHASH *conf, X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *name, + char *value); + +This function returns an extension based on a name and value pair, if the +pair will not need to access other sections in a config file (or there is no +config file) then the 'conf' parameter can be set to NULL. + +X509_EXTENSION *X509V3_EXT_conf_nid(char *conf, X509V3_CTX *ctx, int nid, + char *value); + +This function creates an extension in the same way as X509V3_EXT_conf() but +takes the NID of the extension rather than its name. + +For example to produce basicConstraints with the CA flag and a path length of +10: + +x = X509V3_EXT_conf_nid(NULL, NULL, NID_basic_constraints,"CA:TRUE,pathlen:10"); + + +X509_EXTENSION *X509V3_EXT_i2d(int ext_nid, int crit, void *ext_struc); + +This function sets up an extension from its internal structure. The ext_nid +parameter is the NID of the extension and 'crit' is the critical flag. + +4. Context functions. + +The following functions set and manipulate an extension context structure. +The purpose of the extension context is to allow the extension code to +access various structures relating to the "environment" of the certificate: +for example the issuers certificate or the certificate request. + +void X509V3_set_ctx(X509V3_CTX *ctx, X509 *issuer, X509 *subject, + X509_REQ *req, X509_CRL *crl, int flags); + +This function sets up an X509V3_CTX structure with details of the certificate +environment: specifically the issuers certificate, the subject certificate, +the certificate request and the CRL: if these are not relevant or not +available then they can be set to NULL. The 'flags' parameter should be set +to zero. + +X509V3_set_ctx_test(ctx) + +This macro is used to set the 'ctx' structure to a 'test' value: this is to +allow the syntax of an extension (or configuration file) to be tested. + +X509V3_set_ctx_nodb(ctx) + +This macro is used when no configuration database is present. + +void X509V3_set_conf_lhash(X509V3_CTX *ctx, LHASH *lhash); + +This function is used to set the configuration database when it is an LHASH +structure: typically a configuration file. + +The following functions are used to access a configuration database: they +should only be used in RAW extensions. + +char * X509V3_get_string(X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *name, char *section); + +This function returns the value of the parameter "name" in "section", or NULL +if there has been an error. + +void X509V3_string_free(X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *str); + +This function frees up the string returned by the above function. + +STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) * X509V3_get_section(X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *section); + +This function returns a whole section as a STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) . + +void X509V3_section_free( X509V3_CTX *ctx, STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) *section); + +This function frees up the STACK returned by the above function. + +Note: it is possible to use the extension code with a custom configuration +database. To do this the "db_meth" element of the X509V3_CTX structure should +be set to an X509V3_CTX_METHOD structure. This structure contains the following +function pointers: + +char * (*get_string)(void *db, char *section, char *value); +STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) * (*get_section)(void *db, char *section); +void (*free_string)(void *db, char * string); +void (*free_section)(void *db, STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) *section); + +these will be called and passed the 'db' element in the X509V3_CTX structure +to access the database. If a given function is not implemented or not required +it can be set to NULL. + +5. String helper functions. + +There are several "i2s" and "s2i" functions that convert structures to and +from ASCII strings. In all the "i2s" cases the returned string should be +freed using Free() after use. Since some of these are part of other extension +code they may take a 'method' parameter. Unless otherwise stated it can be +safely set to NULL. + +char *i2s_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *method, ASN1_OCTET_STRING *oct); + +This returns a hex string from an ASN1_OCTET_STRING. + +char * i2s_ASN1_INTEGER(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *meth, ASN1_INTEGER *aint); +char * i2s_ASN1_ENUMERATED(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *meth, ASN1_ENUMERATED *aint); + +These return a string decimal representations of an ASN1_INTEGER and an +ASN1_ENUMERATED type, respectively. + +ASN1_OCTET_STRING *s2i_ASN1_OCTET_STRING(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *method, + X509V3_CTX *ctx, char *str); + +This converts an ASCII hex string to an ASN1_OCTET_STRING. + +ASN1_INTEGER * s2i_ASN1_INTEGER(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *meth, char *value); + +This converts a decimal ASCII string into an ASN1_INTEGER. + +6. Multi valued extension helper functions. + +The following functions can be used to manipulate STACKs of CONF_VALUE +structures, as used by multi valued extensions. + +int X509V3_get_value_bool(CONF_VALUE *value, int *asn1_bool); + +This function expects a boolean value in 'value' and sets 'asn1_bool' to +it. That is it sets it to 0 for FALSE or 0xff for TRUE. The following +strings are acceptable: "TRUE", "true", "Y", "y", "YES", "yes", "FALSE" +"false", "N", "n", "NO" or "no". + +int X509V3_get_value_int(CONF_VALUE *value, ASN1_INTEGER **aint); + +This accepts a decimal integer of arbitrary length and sets an ASN1_INTEGER. + +int X509V3_add_value(const char *name, const char *value, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) **extlist); + +This simply adds a string name and value pair. + +int X509V3_add_value_uchar(const char *name, const unsigned char *value, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) **extlist); + +The same as above but for an unsigned character value. + +int X509V3_add_value_bool(const char *name, int asn1_bool, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) **extlist); + +This adds either "TRUE" or "FALSE" depending on the value of 'asn1_bool' + +int X509V3_add_value_bool_nf(char *name, int asn1_bool, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) **extlist); + +This is the same as above except it adds nothing if asn1_bool is FALSE. + +int X509V3_add_value_int(const char *name, ASN1_INTEGER *aint, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) **extlist); + +This function adds the value of the ASN1_INTEGER in decimal form. + +7. Other helper functions. + +<to be added> + +ADDING CUSTOM EXTENSIONS. + +Currently there are three types of supported extensions. + +String extensions are simple strings where the value is placed directly in the +extensions, and the string returned is printed out. + +Multi value extensions are passed a STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) name and value pairs +or return a STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE). + +Raw extensions are just passed a BIO or a value and it is the extensions +responsibility to handle all the necessary printing. + +There are two ways to add an extension. One is simply as an alias to an already +existing extension. An alias is an extension that is identical in ASN1 structure +to an existing extension but has a different OBJECT IDENTIFIER. This can be +done by calling: + +int X509V3_EXT_add_alias(int nid_to, int nid_from); + +'nid_to' is the new extension NID and 'nid_from' is the already existing +extension NID. + +Alternatively an extension can be written from scratch. This involves writing +the ASN1 code to encode and decode the extension and functions to print out and +generate the extension from strings. The relevant functions are then placed in +a X509V3_EXT_METHOD structure and int X509V3_EXT_add(X509V3_EXT_METHOD *ext); +called. + +The X509V3_EXT_METHOD structure is described below. + +struct { +int ext_nid; +int ext_flags; +X509V3_EXT_NEW ext_new; +X509V3_EXT_FREE ext_free; +X509V3_EXT_D2I d2i; +X509V3_EXT_I2D i2d; +X509V3_EXT_I2S i2s; +X509V3_EXT_S2I s2i; +X509V3_EXT_I2V i2v; +X509V3_EXT_V2I v2i; +X509V3_EXT_R2I r2i; +X509V3_EXT_I2R i2r; + +void *usr_data; +}; + +The elements have the following meanings. + +ext_nid is the NID of the object identifier of the extension. + +ext_flags is set of flags. Currently the only external flag is + X509V3_EXT_MULTILINE which means a multi valued extensions + should be printed on separate lines. + +usr_data is an extension specific pointer to any relevant data. This + allows extensions to share identical code but have different + uses. An example of this is the bit string extension which uses + usr_data to contain a list of the bit names. + +All the remaining elements are function pointers. + +ext_new is a pointer to a function that allocates memory for the + extension ASN1 structure: for example ASN1_OBJECT_new(). + +ext_free is a pointer to a function that free up memory of the extension + ASN1 structure: for example ASN1_OBJECT_free(). + +d2i is the standard ASN1 function that converts a DER buffer into + the internal ASN1 structure: for example d2i_ASN1_IA5STRING(). + +i2d is the standard ASN1 function that converts the internal + structure into the DER representation: for example + i2d_ASN1_IA5STRING(). + +The remaining functions are depend on the type of extension. One i2X and +one X2i should be set and the rest set to NULL. The types set do not need +to match up, for example the extension could be set using the multi valued +v2i function and printed out using the raw i2r. + +All functions have the X509V3_EXT_METHOD passed to them in the 'method' +parameter and an X509V3_CTX structure. Extension code can then access the +parent structure via the 'method' parameter to for example make use of the value +of usr_data. If the code needs to use detail relating to the request it can +use the 'ctx' parameter. + +A note should be given here about the 'flags' member of the 'ctx' parameter. +If it has the value CTX_TEST then the configuration syntax is being checked +and no actual certificate or CRL exists. Therefore any attempt in the config +file to access such information should silently succeed. If the syntax is OK +then it should simply return a (possibly bogus) extension, otherwise it +should return NULL. + +char *i2s(struct v3_ext_method *method, void *ext); + +This function takes the internal structure in the ext parameter and returns +a Malloc'ed string representing its value. + +void * s2i(struct v3_ext_method *method, struct v3_ext_ctx *ctx, char *str); + +This function takes the string representation in the ext parameter and returns +an allocated internal structure: ext_free() will be used on this internal +structure after use. + +i2v and v2i handle a STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE): + +typedef struct +{ + char *section; + char *name; + char *value; +} CONF_VALUE; + +Only the name and value members are currently used. + +STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) * i2v(struct v3_ext_method *method, void *ext); + +This function is passed the internal structure in the ext parameter and +returns a STACK of CONF_VALUE structures. The values of name, value, +section and the structure itself will be freed up with Free after use. +Several helper functions are available to add values to this STACK. + +void * v2i(struct v3_ext_method *method, struct v3_ext_ctx *ctx, + STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) *values); + +This function takes a STACK_OF(CONF_VALUE) structures and should set the +values of the external structure. This typically uses the name element to +determine which structure element to set and the value element to determine +what to set it to. Several helper functions are available for this +purpose (see above). + +int i2r(struct v3_ext_method *method, void *ext, BIO *out, int indent); + +This function is passed the internal extension structure in the ext parameter +and sends out a human readable version of the extension to out. The 'indent' +parameter should be noted to determine the necessary amount of indentation +needed on the output. + +void * r2i(struct v3_ext_method *method, struct v3_ext_ctx *ctx, char *str); + +This is just passed the string representation of the extension. It is intended +to be used for more elaborate extensions where the standard single and multi +valued options are insufficient. They can use the 'ctx' parameter to parse the +configuration database themselves. See the context functions section for details +of how to do this. + +Note: although this type takes the same parameters as the "r2s" function there +is a subtle difference. Whereas an "r2i" function can access a configuration +database an "s2i" function MUST NOT. This is so the internal code can safely +assume that an "s2i" function will work without a configuration database. + +============================================================================== + PKCS#12 Library +============================================================================== + +This section describes the internal PKCS#12 support. There are very few +differences between the old external library and the new internal code at +present. This may well change because the external library will not be updated +much in future. + +This version now includes a couple of high level PKCS#12 functions which +generally "do the right thing" and should make it much easier to handle PKCS#12 +structures. + +HIGH LEVEL FUNCTIONS. + +For most applications you only need concern yourself with the high level +functions. They can parse and generate simple PKCS#12 files as produced by +Netscape and MSIE or indeed any compliant PKCS#12 file containing a single +private key and certificate pair. + +1. Initialisation and cleanup. + +No special initialisation is needed for the internal PKCS#12 library: the +standard SSLeay_add_all_algorithms() is sufficient. If you do not wish to +add all algorithms (you should at least add SHA1 though) then you can manually +initialise the PKCS#12 library with: + +PKCS12_PBE_add(); + +The memory allocated by the PKCS#12 library is freed up when EVP_cleanup() is +called or it can be directly freed with: + +EVP_PBE_cleanup(); + +after this call (or EVP_cleanup() ) no more PKCS#12 library functions should +be called. + +2. I/O functions. + +i2d_PKCS12_bio(bp, p12) + +This writes out a PKCS12 structure to a BIO. + +i2d_PKCS12_fp(fp, p12) + +This is the same but for a FILE pointer. + +d2i_PKCS12_bio(bp, p12) + +This reads in a PKCS12 structure from a BIO. + +d2i_PKCS12_fp(fp, p12) + +This is the same but for a FILE pointer. + +3. High level functions. + +3.1 Parsing with PKCS12_parse(). + +int PKCS12_parse(PKCS12 *p12, char *pass, EVP_PKEY **pkey, X509 **cert, + STACK **ca); + +This function takes a PKCS12 structure and a password (ASCII, null terminated) +and returns the private key, the corresponding certificate and any CA +certificates. If any of these is not required it can be passed as a NULL. +The 'ca' parameter should be either NULL, a pointer to NULL or a valid STACK +structure. Typically to read in a PKCS#12 file you might do: + +p12 = d2i_PKCS12_fp(fp, NULL); +PKCS12_parse(p12, password, &pkey, &cert, NULL); /* CAs not wanted */ +PKCS12_free(p12); + +3.2 PKCS#12 creation with PKCS12_create(). + +PKCS12 *PKCS12_create(char *pass, char *name, EVP_PKEY *pkey, X509 *cert, + STACK *ca, int nid_key, int nid_cert, int iter, + int mac_iter, int keytype); + +This function will create a PKCS12 structure from a given password, name, +private key, certificate and optional STACK of CA certificates. The remaining +5 parameters can be set to 0 and sensible defaults will be used. + +The parameters nid_key and nid_cert are the key and certificate encryption +algorithms, iter is the encryption iteration count, mac_iter is the MAC +iteration count and keytype is the type of private key. If you really want +to know what these last 5 parameters do then read the low level section. + +Typically to create a PKCS#12 file the following could be used: + +p12 = PKCS12_create(pass, "My Certificate", pkey, cert, NULL, 0,0,0,0,0); +i2d_PKCS12_fp(fp, p12); +PKCS12_free(p12); + +3.3 Changing a PKCS#12 structure password. + +int PKCS12_newpass(PKCS12 *p12, char *oldpass, char *newpass); + +This changes the password of an already existing PKCS#12 structure. oldpass +is the old password and newpass is the new one. An error occurs if the old +password is incorrect. + +LOW LEVEL FUNCTIONS. + +In some cases the high level functions do not provide the necessary +functionality. For example if you want to generate or parse more complex +PKCS#12 files. The sample pkcs12 application uses the low level functions +to display details about the internal structure of a PKCS#12 file. + +Introduction. + +This is a brief description of how a PKCS#12 file is represented internally: +some knowledge of PKCS#12 is assumed. + +A PKCS#12 object contains several levels. + +At the lowest level is a PKCS12_SAFEBAG. This can contain a certificate, a +CRL, a private key, encrypted or unencrypted, a set of safebags (so the +structure can be nested) or other secrets (not documented at present). +A safebag can optionally have attributes, currently these are: a unicode +friendlyName (a Unicode string) or a localKeyID (a string of bytes). + +At the next level is an authSafe which is a set of safebags collected into +a PKCS#7 ContentInfo. This can be just plain data, or encrypted itself. + +At the top level is the PKCS12 structure itself which contains a set of +authSafes in an embedded PKCS#7 Contentinfo of type data. In addition it +contains a MAC which is a kind of password protected digest to preserve +integrity (so any unencrypted stuff below can't be tampered with). + +The reason for these levels is so various objects can be encrypted in various +ways. For example you might want to encrypt a set of private keys with +triple-DES and then include the related certificates either unencrypted or +with lower encryption. Yes it's the dreaded crypto laws at work again which +allow strong encryption on private keys and only weak encryption on other +stuff. + +To build one of these things you turn all certificates and keys into safebags +(with optional attributes). You collect the safebags into (one or more) STACKS +and convert these into authsafes (encrypted or unencrypted). The authsafes +are collected into a STACK and added to a PKCS12 structure. Finally a MAC +inserted. + +Pulling one apart is basically the reverse process. The MAC is verified against +the given password. The authsafes are extracted and each authsafe split into +a set of safebags (possibly involving decryption). Finally the safebags are +decomposed into the original keys and certificates and the attributes used to +match up private key and certificate pairs. + +Anyway here are the functions that do the dirty work. + +1. Construction functions. + +1.1 Safebag functions. + +M_PKCS12_x5092certbag(x509) + +This macro takes an X509 structure and returns a certificate bag. The +X509 structure can be freed up after calling this function. + +M_PKCS12_x509crl2certbag(crl) + +As above but for a CRL. + +PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *PKEY2PKCS8(EVP_PKEY *pkey) + +Take a private key and convert it into a PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo structure. +Works for both RSA and DSA private keys. NB since the PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo +structure contains a private key data in plain text form it should be free'd +up as soon as it has been encrypted for security reasons (freeing up the +structure zeros out the sensitive data). This can be done with +PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO_free(). + +PKCS8_add_keyusage(PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8, int usage) + +This sets the key type when a key is imported into MSIE or Outlook 98. Two +values are currently supported: KEY_EX and KEY_SIG. KEY_EX is an exchange type +key that can also be used for signing but its size is limited in the export +versions of MS software to 512 bits, it is also the default. KEY_SIG is a +signing only key but the keysize is unlimited (well 16K is supposed to work). +If you are using the domestic version of MSIE then you can ignore this because +KEY_EX is not limited and can be used for both. + +PKCS12_SAFEBAG *PKCS12_MAKE_KEYBAG(PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8) + +Convert a PKCS8 private key structure into a keybag. This routine embeds the +p8 structure in the keybag so p8 should not be freed up or used after it is +called. The p8 structure will be freed up when the safebag is freed. + +PKCS12_SAFEBAG *PKCS12_MAKE_SHKEYBAG(int pbe_nid, unsigned char *pass, int passlen, unsigned char *salt, int saltlen, int iter, PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8) + +Convert a PKCS#8 structure into a shrouded key bag (encrypted). p8 is not +embedded and can be freed up after use. + +int PKCS12_add_localkeyid(PKCS12_SAFEBAG *bag, unsigned char *name, int namelen) +int PKCS12_add_friendlyname(PKCS12_SAFEBAG *bag, unsigned char *name, int namelen) + +Add a local key id or a friendlyname to a safebag. + +1.2 Authsafe functions. + +PKCS7 *PKCS12_pack_p7data(STACK *sk) +Take a stack of safebags and convert them into an unencrypted authsafe. The +stack of safebags can be freed up after calling this function. + +PKCS7 *PKCS12_pack_p7encdata(int pbe_nid, unsigned char *pass, int passlen, unsigned char *salt, int saltlen, int iter, STACK *bags); + +As above but encrypted. + +1.3 PKCS12 functions. + +PKCS12 *PKCS12_init(int mode) + +Initialise a PKCS12 structure (currently mode should be NID_pkcs7_data). + +M_PKCS12_pack_authsafes(p12, safes) + +This macro takes a STACK of authsafes and adds them to a PKCS#12 structure. + +int PKCS12_set_mac(PKCS12 *p12, unsigned char *pass, int passlen, unsigned char *salt, int saltlen, int iter, EVP_MD *md_type); + +Add a MAC to a PKCS12 structure. If EVP_MD is NULL use SHA-1, the spec suggests +that SHA-1 should be used. + +2. Extraction Functions. + +2.1 Safebags. + +M_PKCS12_bag_type(bag) + +Return the type of "bag". Returns one of the following + +NID_keyBag +NID_pkcs8ShroudedKeyBag 7 +NID_certBag 8 +NID_crlBag 9 +NID_secretBag 10 +NID_safeContentsBag 11 + +M_PKCS12_cert_bag_type(bag) + +Returns type of certificate bag, following are understood. + +NID_x509Certificate 14 +NID_sdsiCertificate 15 + +M_PKCS12_crl_bag_type(bag) + +Returns crl bag type, currently only NID_crlBag is recognised. + +M_PKCS12_certbag2x509(bag) + +This macro extracts an X509 certificate from a certificate bag. + +M_PKCS12_certbag2x509crl(bag) + +As above but for a CRL. + +EVP_PKEY * PKCS82PKEY(PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO *p8) + +Extract a private key from a PKCS8 private key info structure. + +M_PKCS12_decrypt_skey(bag, pass, passlen) + +Decrypt a shrouded key bag and return a PKCS8 private key info structure. +Works with both RSA and DSA keys + +char *PKCS12_get_friendlyname(bag) + +Returns the friendlyName of a bag if present or NULL if none. The returned +string is a null terminated ASCII string allocated with Malloc(). It should +thus be freed up with Free() after use. + +2.2 AuthSafe functions. + +M_PKCS12_unpack_p7data(p7) + +Extract a STACK of safe bags from a PKCS#7 data ContentInfo. + +#define M_PKCS12_unpack_p7encdata(p7, pass, passlen) + +As above but for an encrypted content info. + +2.3 PKCS12 functions. + +M_PKCS12_unpack_authsafes(p12) + +Extract a STACK of authsafes from a PKCS12 structure. + +M_PKCS12_mac_present(p12) + +Check to see if a MAC is present. + +int PKCS12_verify_mac(PKCS12 *p12, unsigned char *pass, int passlen) + +Verify a MAC on a PKCS12 structure. Returns an error if MAC not present. + + +Notes. + +1. All the function return 0 or NULL on error. +2. Encryption based functions take a common set of parameters. These are +described below. + +pass, passlen +ASCII password and length. The password on the MAC is called the "integrity +password" the encryption password is called the "privacy password" in the +PKCS#12 documentation. The passwords do not have to be the same. If -1 is +passed for the length it is worked out by the function itself (currently +this is sometimes done whatever is passed as the length but that may change). + +salt, saltlen +A 'salt' if salt is NULL a random salt is used. If saltlen is also zero a +default length is used. + +iter +Iteration count. This is a measure of how many times an internal function is +called to encrypt the data. The larger this value is the longer it takes, it +makes dictionary attacks on passwords harder. NOTE: Some implementations do +not support an iteration count on the MAC. If the password for the MAC and +encryption is the same then there is no point in having a high iteration +count for encryption if the MAC has no count. The MAC could be attacked +and the password used for the main decryption. + +pbe_nid +This is the NID of the password based encryption method used. The following are +supported. +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And128BitRC4 +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And40BitRC4 +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And3_Key_TripleDES_CBC +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And2_Key_TripleDES_CBC +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And128BitRC2_CBC +NID_pbe_WithSHA1And40BitRC2_CBC + +Which you use depends on the implementation you are exporting to. "Export +grade" (i.e. cryptographically challenged) products cannot support all +algorithms.

Additionally, the session id is +transmitted in the clear when reusing the session so it must not contain +sensitive information. + +Without a callback being set, an OpenSSL server will generate a unique +session id from pseudo random numbers of the maximum possible length. +Using the callback function, the session id can be changed to contain +additional information like e.g. a host id in order to improve load balancing +or external caching techniques. + +The callback function receives a pointer to the memory location to put +B<id> into and a pointer to the maximum allowed length B<id_len>.

It is not recommended to change the B<id_len> for SSLv2 sessions. +The callback can use the L<SSL_get_version(3)|SSL_get_version(3)> function +to check, whether the session is of type SSLv2. + +The location B<id> is filled with 0x00 before the callback is called, so the +callback may only fill part of the possible length and leave B<id_len> +untouched while maintaining reproducibility. + +Since the sessions must be distinguished, session ids must be unique. +Without the callback a random number is used, so that the probability +of generating the same session id is extremely small (2^128 possible ids +for an SSLv2 session, 2^256 for SSLv3/TLSv1). In order to assure the +uniqueness of the generated session id, the callback must call +SSL_has_matching_session_id() and generate another id if a conflict occurs. +If an id conflict is not resolved, the handshake will fail. +If the application codes e.g. a unique host id, a unique process number, and +a unique sequence number into the session id, uniqueness could easily be +achieved without randomness added (it should however be taken care that +no confidential information is leaked this way).

By generating a temporary +DH key inside the server application that is lost when the application +is left, it becomes impossible for an attacker to decrypt past sessions, +even if he gets hold of the normal (certified) key, as this key was +only used for signing. + +In order to perform a DH key exchange the server must use a DH group +(DH parameters) and generate a DH key. The server will always generate a new +DH key during the negotiation, when the DH parameters are supplied via +callback and/or when the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option of +L<SSL_CTX_set_options(3)|SSL_CTX_set_options(3)> is set. It will +immediately create a DH key, when DH parameters are supplied via +SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh() and SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE is not set. In this case, +it may happen that a key is generated on initialization without later +being needed, while on the other hand the computer time during the +negotiation is being saved. + +If "strong" primes were used to generate the DH parameters, it is not strictly +necessary to generate a new key for each handshake but it does improve forward +secrecy. If it is not assured, that "strong" primes were used (see especially +the section about DSA parameters below), SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE must be used +in order to prevent small subgroup attacks. Always using SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE +has an impact on the computer time needed during negotiation, but it is not +very large, so application authors/users should consider to always enable +this option. + +As generating DH parameters is extremely time consuming, an application +should not generate the parameters on the fly but supply the parameters. +DH parameters can be reused, as the actual key is newly generated during +the negotiation. The risk in reusing DH parameters is that an attacker +may specialize on a very often used DH group. Applications should therefore +generate their own DH parameters during the installation process using the +openssl L<dhparam(1)|dhparam(1)> application. In order to reduce the computer +time needed for this generation, it is possible to use DSA parameters +instead (see L<dhparam(1)|dhparam(1)>), but in this case SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE +is mandatory. + +Application authors may compile in DH parameters. Files dh512.pem, +dh1024.pem, dh2048.pem, and dh4096 in the 'apps' directory of current +version of the OpenSSL distribution contain the 'SKIP' DH parameters, +which use safe primes and were generated verifiably pseudo-randomly. +These files can be converted into C code using the B<-C> option of the +L<dhparam(1)|dhparam(1)> application. +Authors may also generate their own set of parameters using +L<dhparam(1)|dhparam(1)>, but a user may not be sure how the parameters were +generated.

An +application provided procedure also has access to the verify depth information +and the verify_callback() function, but the way this information is used +may be different. + +SSL_CTX_set_verify_depth() and SSL_set_verify_depth() set the limit up +to which depth certificates in a chain are used during the verification +procedure.

Error messages are generated as if these +certificates would not be present, most likely a +X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY will be issued. +The depth count is "level 0:peer certificate", "level 1: CA certificate", +"level 2: higher level CA certificate", and so on. Setting the maximum +depth to 2 allows the levels 0, 1, and 2.

B<x509_ctx> is a pointer to the complete context used +for the certificate chain verification. + +The certificate chain is checked starting with the deepest nesting level +(the root CA certificate) and worked upward to the peer's certificate. +At each level signatures and issuer attributes are checked.

If B<verify_callback> always returns +1, the TLS/SSL handshake will not be terminated with respect to verification +failures and the connection will be established. The calling process can +however retrieve the error code of the last verification error using +L<SSL_get_verify_result(3)|SSL_get_verify_result(3)> or by maintaining its +own error storage managed by B<verify_callback>. + +If no B<verify_callback> is specified, the default callback will be used. +Its return value is identical to B<preverify_ok>, so that any verification +failure will lead to a termination of the TLS/SSL handshake with an +alert message, if SSL_VERIFY_PEER is set. + +=head1 BUGS + +In client mode, it is not checked whether the SSL_VERIFY_PEER flag +is set, but whether SSL_VERIFY_NONE is not set.

The formatting B<type> of the certificate must be specified +from the known types SSL_FILETYPE_PEM, SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1. +SSL_use_certificate_file() loads the certificate from B<file> into B<ssl>. +See the NOTES section on why SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() +should be preferred. + +SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() loads a certificate chain from +B<file> into B<ctx>. The certificates must be in PEM format and must +be sorted starting with the subject's certificate (actual client or server +certificate), followed by intermediate CA certificates if applicable, and +ending at the highest level (root) CA. +There is no corresponding function working on a single SSL object. + +SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey() adds B<pkey> as private key to B<ctx>. +SSL_CTX_use_RSAPrivateKey() adds the private key B<rsa> of type RSA +to B<ctx>.

SSL_use_PrivateKey_file() adds the first private key found +in B<file> to B<ssl>; SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey_file() adds the first private +RSA key found to B<ssl>. + +SSL_CTX_check_private_key() checks the consistency of a private key with +the corresponding certificate loaded into B<ctx>. If more than one +key/certificate pair (RSA/DSA) is installed, the last item installed will +be checked. If e.g. the last item was a RSA certificate or key, the RSA +key/certificate pair will be checked. SSL_check_private_key() performs +the same check for B<ssl>. If no key/certificate was explicitly added for +this B<ssl>, the last item added into B<ctx> will be checked. + +=head1 NOTES + +The internal certificate store of OpenSSL can hold two private key/certificate +pairs at a time: one key/certificate of type RSA and one key/certificate +of type DSA.

The other certificates are added +to the store of chain certificates using +L<SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)|SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert(3)>. +There exists only one extra chain store, so that the same chain is appended +to both types of certificates, RSA and DSA! If it is not intended to use +both type of certificate at the same time, it is recommended to use the +SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() instead of the +SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file() function in order to allow the use of +complete certificate chains even when no trusted CA storage is used or +when the CA issuing the certificate shall not be added to the trusted +CA storage. + +If additional certificates are needed to complete the chain during the +TLS negotiation, CA certificates are additionally looked up in the +locations of trusted CA certificates, see +L<SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)|SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3)>. + +The private keys loaded from file can be encrypted.

This is being done by calling +L<SSL_set_connect_state(3)|SSL_set_connect_state(3)> or SSL_set_accept_state() +before the first call to an SSL_read() or L<SSL_write(3)|SSL_write(3)> +function. + +SSL_read() works based on the SSL/TLS records. The data are received in +records (with a maximum record size of 16kB for SSLv3/TLSv1). Only when a +record has been completely received, it can be processed (decryption and +check of integrity). Therefore data that was not retrieved at the last +call of SSL_read() can still be buffered inside the SSL layer and will be +retrieved on the next call to SSL_read().

I strongly advise having a look at the code to get +an idea of how to use the authentication under SSLeay. Any feedback +on changes and improvements would be greatly accepted. + +This file will probably be gibberish unless you have read +rfc1421, rfc1422, rfc1423 and rfc1424 which describe PEM +authentication. + +A Brief outline (and examples) how to use them to do so. + +NOTE: +The environment variable SSL_CIPER is used to specify the prefered +cipher to use, play around with setting it's value to combinations of +RC4-MD5, EXP-RC4-MD5, CBC-DES-MD5, CBC3-DES-MD5, CFB-DES-NULL +in a : separated list. + +This directory contains 3 X509 certificates which can be used by these programs. +client.pem: a file containing a certificate and private key to be used + by s_client. +server.pem :a file containing a certificate and private key to be used + by s_server. +eay1024.pem:the certificate used to sign client.pem and server.pem. + This would be your CA's certificate. There is also a link + from the file a8556381.0 to eay1024.PEM. The value a8556381 + is returned by 'x509 -hash -noout <eay1024.pem' and is the + value used by X509 verification routines to 'find' this + certificte when search a directory for it. + [the above is not true any more, the CA cert is + ../certs/testca.pem which is signed by ../certs/mincomca.pem] + +When testing the s_server, you may get +bind: Address already in use +errors. These indicate the port is still being held by the unix +kernel and you are going to have to wait for it to let go of it. If +this is the case, remember to use the port commands on the s_server and +s_client to talk on an alternative port. + +===== +s_client. +This program can be used to connect to any IP/hostname:port that is +talking SSL.

Then over time, they did multiply and grow, +and they started to look like microsoft software; 500k to print 'hello world'. +A new approach was needed. They were coalessed into one 'Monolithic' +application, ssleay. This one program is composed of many programs that +can all be compiled independantly. + +ssleay has 3 modes of operation. +1) If the ssleay binaray has the name of one of its component programs, it +executes that program and then exits. This can be achieve by using hard or +symbolic links, or failing that, just renaming the binary. +2) If the first argument to ssleay is the name of one of the component +programs, that program runs that program and then exits. +3) If there are no arguments, ssleay enters a 'command' mode. Each line is +interpreted as a program name plus arguments. After each 'program' is run, +ssleay returns to the comand line. + +dgst - message digests +enc - encryption and base64 encoding + +ans1parse - 'pulls' appart ASN.1 encoded objects like certificates. + +dh - Diffle-Hellman parameter manipulation. +rsa - RSA manipulations. +crl - Certificate revokion list manipulations +x509 - X509 cert fiddles, including signing. +pkcs7 - pkcs7 manipulation, only DER versions right now. + +genrsa - generate an RSA private key. +gendh - Generate a set of Diffle-Hellman parameters. +req - Generate a PKCS#10 object, a certificate request. + +s_client - SSL client program +s_server - SSL server program +s_time - A SSL protocol timing program +s_mult - Another SSL server, but it multiplexes + connections. +s_filter - under development + +errstr - Convert SSLeay error numbers to strings. +ca - Sign certificate requests, and generate + certificate revokion lists +crl2pkcs7 - put a crl and certifcates into a pkcs7 object. +speed - Benchmark the ciphers. +verify - Check certificates +hashdir - under development + +[ there a now a few more options, play with the program to see what they + are ] + +==== asn1.doc ======================================================== + +The ASN.1 Routines. + +ASN.1 is a specification for how to encode structured 'data' in binary form. +The approach I have take to the manipulation of structures and their encoding +into ASN.1 is as follows. + +For each distinct structure there are 4 function of the following form +TYPE *TYPE_new(void); +void TYPE_free(TYPE *); +TYPE *d2i_TYPE(TYPE **a,unsigned char **pp,long length); +long i2d_TYPE(TYPE *a,unsigned char **pp); /* CHECK RETURN VALUE */ + +where TYPE is the type of the 'object'. The TYPE that have these functions +can be in one of 2 forms, either the internal C malloc()ed data structure +or in the DER (a variant of ASN.1 encoding) binary encoding which is just +an array of unsigned bytes. The 'i2d' functions converts from the internal +form to the DER form and the 'd2i' functions convert from the DER form to +the internal form. + +The 'new' function returns a malloc()ed version of the structure with all +substructures either created or left as NULL pointers. For 'optional' +fields, they are normally left as NULL to indicate no value. For variable +size sub structures (often 'SET OF' or 'SEQUENCE OF' in ASN.1 syntax) the +STACK data type is used to hold the values. Have a read of stack.doc +and have a look at the relevant header files to see what I mean. If there +is an error while malloc()ing the structure, NULL is returned. + +The 'free' function will free() all the sub components of a particular +structure. If any of those sub components have been 'removed', replace +them with NULL pointers, the 'free' functions are tolerant of NULL fields. + +The 'd2i' function copies a binary representation into a C structure. It +operates as follows. 'a' is a pointer to a pointer to +the structure to populate, 'pp' is a pointer to a pointer to where the DER +byte string is located and 'length' is the length of the '*pp' data. +If there are no errors, a pointer to the populated structure is returned. +If there is an error, NULL is returned. Errors can occur because of +malloc() failures but normally they will be due to syntax errors in the DER +encoded data being parsed. It is also an error if there was an +attempt to read more that 'length' bytes from '*p'. If +everything works correctly, the value in '*p' is updated +to point at the location just beyond where the DER +structure was read from. In this way, chained calls to 'd2i' type +functions can be made, with the pointer into the 'data' array being +'walked' along the input byte array. +Depending on the value passed for 'a', different things will be done. If +'a' is NULL, a new structure will be malloc()ed and returned. If '*a' is +NULL, a new structure will be malloc()ed and put into '*a' and returned. +If '*a' is not NULL, the structure in '*a' will be populated, or in the +case of an error, free()ed and then returned. +Having these semantics means that a structure +can call a 'd2i' function to populate a field and if the field is currently +NULL, the structure will be created. + +The 'i2d' function type is used to copy a C structure to a byte array. +The parameter 'a' is the structure to convert and '*p' is where to put it. +As for the 'd2i' type structure, 'p' is updated to point after the last +byte written. If p is NULL, no data is written. The function also returns +the number of bytes written. Where this becomes useful is that if the +function is called with a NULL 'p' value, the length is returned. This can +then be used to malloc() an array of bytes and then the same function can +be recalled passing the malloced array to be written to. e.g. + +int len; +unsigned char *bytes,*p; +len=i2d_X509(x,NULL); /* get the size of the ASN1 encoding of 'x' */ +if ((bytes=(unsigned char *)malloc(len)) == NULL) + goto err; +p=bytes; +i2d_X509(x,&p); + +Please note that a new variable, 'p' was passed to i2d_X509. After the +call to i2d_X509 p has been incremented by len bytes. + +Now the reason for this functional organisation is that it allows nested +structures to be built up by calling these functions as required. There +are various macros used to help write the general 'i2d', 'd2i', 'new' and +'free' functions. They are discussed in another file and would only be +used by some-one wanting to add new structures to the library. As you +might be able to guess, the process of writing ASN.1 files can be a bit CPU +expensive for complex structures. I'm willing to live with this since the +simpler library code make my life easier and hopefully most programs using +these routines will have their execution profiles dominated by cipher or +message digest routines. +What follows is a list of 'TYPE' values and the corresponding ASN.1 +structure and where it is used. + +TYPE ASN.1 +ASN1_INTEGER INTEGER +ASN1_BIT_STRING BIT STRING +ASN1_OCTET_STRING OCTET STRING +ASN1_OBJECT OBJECT IDENTIFIER +ASN1_PRINTABLESTRING PrintableString +ASN1_T61STRING T61String +ASN1_IA5STRING IA5String +ASN1_UTCTIME UTCTime +ASN1_TYPE Any of the above mentioned types plus SEQUENCE and SET + +Most of the above mentioned types are actualled stored in the +ASN1_BIT_STRING type and macros are used to differentiate between them. +The 3 types used are + +typedef struct asn1_object_st + { + /* both null if a dynamic ASN1_OBJECT, one is + * defined if a 'static' ASN1_OBJECT */ + char *sn,*ln; + int nid; + int length; + unsigned char *data; + } ASN1_OBJECT; +This is used to store ASN1 OBJECTS. Read 'objects.doc' for details ono +routines to manipulate this structure. 'sn' and 'ln' are used to hold text +strings that represent the object (short name and long or lower case name). +These are used by the 'OBJ' library. 'nid' is a number used by the OBJ +library to uniquely identify objects. The ASN1 routines will populate the +'length' and 'data' fields which will contain the bit string representing +the object. + +typedef struct asn1_bit_string_st + { + int length; + int type; + unsigned char *data; + } ASN1_BIT_STRING; +This structure is used to hold all the other base ASN1 types except for +ASN1_UTCTIME (which is really just a 'char *'). Length is the number of +bytes held in data and type is the ASN1 type of the object (there is a list +in asn1.h). + +typedef struct asn1_type_st + { + int type; + union { + char *ptr; + ASN1_INTEGER * integer; + ASN1_BIT_STRING * bit_string; + ASN1_OCTET_STRING * octet_string; + ASN1_OBJECT * object; + ASN1_PRINTABLESTRING * printablestring; + ASN1_T61STRING * t61string; + ASN1_IA5STRING * ia5string; + ASN1_UTCTIME * utctime; + ASN1_BIT_STRING * set; + ASN1_BIT_STRING * sequence; + } value; + } ASN1_TYPE; +This structure is used in a few places when 'any' type of object can be +expected. + +X509 Certificate +X509_CINF CertificateInfo +X509_ALGOR AlgorithmIdentifier +X509_NAME Name +X509_NAME_ENTRY A single sub component of the name. +X509_VAL Validity +X509_PUBKEY SubjectPublicKeyInfo +The above mentioned types are declared in x509.h. They are all quite +straight forward except for the X509_NAME/X509_NAME_ENTRY pair. +A X509_NAME is a STACK (see stack.doc) of X509_NAME_ENTRY's. +typedef struct X509_name_entry_st + { + ASN1_OBJECT *object; + ASN1_BIT_STRING *value; + int set; + int size; /* temp variable */ + } X509_NAME_ENTRY; +The size is a temporary variable used by i2d_NAME and set is the set number +for the particular NAME_ENTRY. A X509_NAME is encoded as a sequence of +sequence of sets. Normally each set contains only a single item. +Sometimes it contains more. Normally throughout this library there will be +only one item per set. The set field contains the 'set' that this entry is +a member of. So if you have just created a X509_NAME structure and +populated it with X509_NAME_ENTRYs, you should then traverse the X509_NAME +(which is just a STACK) and set the 'set/' field to incrementing numbers. +For more details on why this is done, read the ASN.1 spec for Distinguished +Names. + +X509_REQ CertificateRequest +X509_REQ_INFO CertificateRequestInfo +These are used to hold certificate requests. + +X509_CRL CertificateRevocationList +These are used to hold a certificate revocation list + +RSAPrivateKey PrivateKeyInfo +RSAPublicKey PublicKeyInfo +Both these 'function groups' operate on 'RSA' structures (see rsa.doc). +The difference is that the RSAPublicKey operations only manipulate the m +and e fields in the RSA structure. + +DSAPrivateKey DSS private key +DSAPublicKey DSS public key +Both these 'function groups' operate on 'DSS' structures (see dsa.doc). +The difference is that the RSAPublicKey operations only manipulate the +XXX fields in the DSA structure. + +DHparams DHParameter +This is used to hold the p and g value for The Diffie-Hellman operation. +The function deal with the 'DH' strucure (see dh.doc). + +Now all of these function types can be used with several other functions to give +quite useful set of general manipulation routines. Normally one would +not uses these functions directly but use them via macros. + +char *ASN1_dup(int (*i2d)(),char *(*d2i)(),char *x); +'x' is the input structure case to a 'char *', 'i2d' is the 'i2d_TYPE' +function for the type that 'x' is and d2i is the 'd2i_TYPE' function for the +type that 'x' is. As is obvious from the parameters, this function +duplicates the strucutre by transforming it into the DER form and then +re-loading it into a new strucutre and returning the new strucutre. This +is obviously a bit cpu intensive but when faced with a complex dynamic +structure this is the simplest programming approach. There are macros for +duplicating the major data types but is simple to add extras. + +char *ASN1_d2i_fp(char *(*new)(),char *(*d2i)(),FILE *fp,unsigned char **x); +'x' is a pointer to a pointer of the 'desired type'. new and d2i are the +corresponding 'TYPE_new' and 'd2i_TYPE' functions for the type and 'fp' is +an open file pointer to read from. This function reads from 'fp' as much +data as it can and then uses 'd2i' to parse the bytes to load and return +the parsed strucutre in 'x' (if it was non-NULL) and to actually return the +strucutre. The behavior of 'x' is as per all the other d2i functions. + +char *ASN1_d2i_bio(char *(*new)(),char *(*d2i)(),BIO *fp,unsigned char **x); +The 'BIO' is the new IO type being used in SSLeay (see bio.doc). This +function is the same as ASN1_d2i_fp() except for the BIO argument. +ASN1_d2i_fp() actually calls this function. + +int ASN1_i2d_fp(int (*i2d)(),FILE *out,unsigned char *x); +'x' is converted to bytes by 'i2d' and then written to 'out'. ASN1_i2d_fp +and ASN1_d2i_fp are not really symetric since ASN1_i2d_fp will read all +available data from the file pointer before parsing a single item while +ASN1_i2d_fp can be used to write a sequence of data objects. To read a +series of objects from a file I would sugest loading the file into a buffer +and calling the relevent 'd2i' functions. + +char *ASN1_d2i_bio(char *(*new)(),char *(*d2i)(),BIO *fp,unsigned char **x); +This function is the same as ASN1_i2d_fp() except for the BIO argument. +ASN1_i2d_fp() actually calls this function. + +char * PEM_ASN1_read(char *(*d2i)(),char *name,FILE *fp,char **x,int (*cb)()); +This function will read the next PEM encoded (base64) object of the same +type as 'x' (loaded by the d2i function). 'name' is the name that is in +the '-----BEGIN name-----' that designates the start of that object type. +If the data is encrypted, 'cb' will be called to prompt for a password. If +it is NULL a default function will be used to prompt from the password. +'x' is delt with as per the standard 'd2i' function interface.

There are two types +of BIO; a source/sink type and a filter type. +The source/sink methods are as follows: +- BIO_s_mem() memory buffer - a read/write byte array that + grows until memory runs out :-). +- BIO_s_file() FILE pointer - A wrapper around the normal + 'FILE *' commands, good for use with stdin/stdout. +- BIO_s_fd() File descriptor - A wrapper around file + descriptors, often used with pipes. +- BIO_s_socket() Socket - Used around sockets. It is + mostly in the Microsoft world that sockets are different + from file descriptors and there are all those ugly winsock + commands. +- BIO_s_null() Null - read nothing and write nothing.; a + useful endpoint for filter type BIO's specifically things + like the message digest BIO. + +The filter types are +- BIO_f_buffer() IO buffering - does output buffering into + larger chunks and performs input buffering to allow gets() + type functions. +- BIO_f_md() Message digest - a transparent filter that can + be asked to return a message digest for the data that has + passed through it. +- BIO_f_cipher() Encrypt or decrypt all data passing + through the filter. +- BIO_f_base64() Base64 decode on read and encode on write. +- BIO_f_ssl() A filter that performs SSL encryption on the + data sent through it. + +Base BIO functions. +The BIO library has a set of base functions that are +implemented for each particular type. Filter BIOs will +normally call the equivalent function on the source/sink BIO +that they are layered on top of after they have performed +some modification to the data stream. Multiple filter BIOs +can be 'push' into a stack of modifers, so to read from a +file, unbase64 it, then decrypt it, a BIO_f_cipher, +BIO_f_base64 and a BIO_s_file would probably be used. If a +sha-1 and md5 message digest needed to be generated, a stack +two BIO_f_md() BIOs and a BIO_s_null() BIO could be used. +The base functions are +- BIO *BIO_new(BIO_METHOD *type); Create a new BIO of type 'type'. +- int BIO_free(BIO *a); Free a BIO structure. Depending on + the configuration, this will free the underlying data + object for a source/sink BIO. +- int BIO_read(BIO *b, char *data, int len); Read upto 'len' + bytes into 'data'. +- int BIO_gets(BIO *bp,char *buf, int size); Depending on + the BIO, this can either be a 'get special' or a get one + line of data, as per fgets(); +- int BIO_write(BIO *b, char *data, int len); Write 'len' + bytes from 'data' to the 'b' BIO. +- int BIO_puts(BIO *bp,char *buf); Either a 'put special' or + a write null terminated string as per fputs(). +- long BIO_ctrl(BIO *bp,int cmd,long larg,char *parg); A + control function which is used to manipulate the BIO + structure and modify it's state and or report on it. This + function is just about never used directly, rather it + should be used in conjunction with BIO_METHOD specific + macros. +- BIO *BIO_push(BIO *new_top, BIO *old); new_top is apped to the + top of the 'old' BIO list. new_top should be a filter BIO. + All writes will go through 'new_top' first and last on read. + 'old' is returned. +- BIO *BIO_pop(BIO *bio); the new topmost BIO is returned, NULL if + there are no more. + +If a particular low level BIO method is not supported +(normally BIO_gets()), -2 will be returned if that method is +called. Otherwise the IO methods (read, write, gets, puts) +will return the number of bytes read or written, and 0 or -1 +for error (or end of input). For the -1 case, +BIO_should_retry(bio) can be called to determine if it was a +genuine error or a temporary problem. -2 will also be +returned if the BIO has not been initalised yet, in all +cases, the correct error codes are set (accessible via the +ERR library). + + +The following functions are convenience functions: +- int BIO_printf(BIO *bio, char * format, ..); printf but + to a BIO handle. +- long BIO_ctrl_int(BIO *bp,int cmd,long larg,int iarg); a + convenience function to allow a different argument types + to be passed to BIO_ctrl(). +- int BIO_dump(BIO *b,char *bytes,int len); output 'len' + bytes from 'bytes' in a hex dump debug format. +- long BIO_debug_callback(BIO *bio, int cmd, char *argp, int + argi, long argl, long ret) - a default debug BIO callback, + this is mentioned below. To use this one normally has to + use the BIO_set_callback_arg() function to assign an + output BIO for the callback to use. +- BIO *BIO_find_type(BIO *bio,int type); when there is a 'stack' + of BIOs, this function scan the list and returns the first + that is of type 'type', as listed in buffer.h under BIO_TYPE_XXX. +- void BIO_free_all(BIO *bio); Free the bio and all other BIOs + in the list. It walks the bio->next_bio list. + + + +Extra commands are normally implemented as macros calling BIO_ctrl(). +- BIO_number_read(BIO *bio) - the number of bytes processed + by BIO_read(bio,.). +- BIO_number_written(BIO *bio) - the number of bytes written + by BIO_write(bio,.). +- BIO_reset(BIO *bio) - 'reset' the BIO. +- BIO_eof(BIO *bio) - non zero if we are at the current end + of input. +- BIO_set_close(BIO *bio, int close_flag) - set the close flag. +- BIO_get_close(BIO *bio) - return the close flag. + BIO_pending(BIO *bio) - return the number of bytes waiting + to be read (normally buffered internally). +- BIO_flush(BIO *bio) - output any data waiting to be output. +- BIO_should_retry(BIO *io) - after a BIO_read/BIO_write + operation returns 0 or -1, a call to this function will + return non zero if you should retry the call later (this + is for non-blocking IO). +- BIO_should_read(BIO *io) - we should retry when data can + be read. +- BIO_should_write(BIO *io) - we should retry when data can + be written. +- BIO_method_name(BIO *io) - return a string for the method name. +- BIO_method_type(BIO *io) - return the unique ID of the BIO method. +- BIO_set_callback(BIO *io, long (*callback)(BIO *io, int + cmd, char *argp, int argi, long argl, long ret); - sets + the debug callback. +- BIO_get_callback(BIO *io) - return the assigned function + as mentioned above. +- BIO_set_callback_arg(BIO *io, char *arg) - assign some + data against the BIO. This is normally used by the debug + callback but could in reality be used for anything. To + get an idea of how all this works, have a look at the code + in the default debug callback mentioned above. The + callback can modify the return values. + +Details of the BIO_METHOD structure. +typedef struct bio_method_st + { + int type; + char *name; + int (*bwrite)(); + int (*bread)(); + int (*bputs)(); + int (*bgets)(); + long (*ctrl)(); + int (*create)(); + int (*destroy)(); + } BIO_METHOD; + +The 'type' is the numeric type of the BIO, these are listed in buffer.h; +'Name' is a textual representation of the BIO 'type'. +The 7 function pointers point to the respective function +methods, some of which can be NULL if not implemented. +The BIO structure +typedef struct bio_st + { + BIO_METHOD *method; + long (*callback)(BIO * bio, int mode, char *argp, int + argi, long argl, long ret); + char *cb_arg; /* first argument for the callback */ + int init; + int shutdown; + int flags; /* extra storage */ + int num; + char *ptr; + struct bio_st *next_bio; /* used by filter BIOs */ + int references; + unsigned long num_read; + unsigned long num_write; + } BIO; + +- 'Method' is the BIO method. +- 'callback', when configured, is called before and after + each BIO method is called for that particular BIO. This + is intended primarily for debugging and of informational feedback. +- 'init' is 0 when the BIO can be used for operation. + Often, after a BIO is created, a number of operations may + need to be performed before it is available for use. An + example is for BIO_s_sock(). A socket needs to be + assigned to the BIO before it can be used. +- 'shutdown', this flag indicates if the underlying + comunication primative being used should be closed/freed + when the BIO is closed. +- 'flags' is used to hold extra state. It is primarily used + to hold information about why a non-blocking operation + failed and to record startup protocol information for the + SSL BIO. +- 'num' and 'ptr' are used to hold instance specific state + like file descriptors or local data structures. +- 'next_bio' is used by filter BIOs to hold the pointer of the + next BIO in the chain. written data is sent to this BIO and + data read is taken from it. +- 'references' is used to indicate the number of pointers to + this structure. This needs to be '1' before a call to + BIO_free() is made if the BIO_free() function is to + actually free() the structure, otherwise the reference + count is just decreased. The actual BIO subsystem does + not really use this functionality but it is useful when + used in more advanced applicaion. +- num_read and num_write are the total number of bytes + read/written via the 'read()' and 'write()' methods. + +BIO_ctrl operations. +The following is the list of standard commands passed as the +second parameter to BIO_ctrl() and should be supported by +all BIO as best as possible. Some are optional, some are +manditory, in any case, where is makes sense, a filter BIO +should pass such requests to underlying BIO's. +- BIO_CTRL_RESET - Reset the BIO back to an initial state. +- BIO_CTRL_EOF - return 0 if we are not at the end of input, + non 0 if we are. +- BIO_CTRL_INFO - BIO specific special command, normal + information return. +- BIO_CTRL_SET - set IO specific parameter. +- BIO_CTRL_GET - get IO specific parameter. +- BIO_CTRL_GET_CLOSE - Get the close on BIO_free() flag, one + of BIO_CLOSE or BIO_NOCLOSE. +- BIO_CTRL_SET_CLOSE - Set the close on BIO_free() flag. +- BIO_CTRL_PENDING - Return the number of bytes available + for instant reading +- BIO_CTRL_FLUSH - Output pending data, return number of bytes output. +- BIO_CTRL_SHOULD_RETRY - After an IO error (-1 returned) + should we 'retry' when IO is possible on the underlying IO object. +- BIO_CTRL_RETRY_TYPE - What kind of IO are we waiting on. + +The following command is a special BIO_s_file() specific option. +- BIO_CTRL_SET_FILENAME - specify a file to open for IO. + +The BIO_CTRL_RETRY_TYPE needs a little more explanation. +When performing non-blocking IO, or say reading on a memory +BIO, when no data is present (or cannot be written), +BIO_read() and/or BIO_write() will return -1. +BIO_should_retry(bio) will return true if this is due to an +IO condition rather than an actual error. In the case of +BIO_s_mem(), a read when there is no data will return -1 and +a should retry when there is more 'read' data. +The retry type is deduced from 2 macros +BIO_should_read(bio) and BIO_should_write(bio). +Now while it may appear obvious that a BIO_read() failure +should indicate that a retry should be performed when more +read data is available, this is often not true when using +things like an SSL BIO. During the SSL protocol startup +multiple reads and writes are performed, triggered by any +SSL_read or SSL_write. +So to write code that will transparently handle either a +socket or SSL BIO, + i=BIO_read(bio,..) + if (I == -1) + { + if (BIO_should_retry(bio)) + { + if (BIO_should_read(bio)) + { + /* call us again when BIO can be read */ + } + if (BIO_should_write(bio)) + { + /* call us again when BIO can be written */ + } + } + } + +At this point in time only read and write conditions can be +used but in the future I can see the situation for other +conditions, specifically with SSL there could be a condition +of a X509 certificate lookup taking place and so the non- +blocking BIO_read would require a retry when the certificate +lookup subsystem has finished it's lookup. This is all +makes more sense and is easy to use in a event loop type +setup. +When using the SSL BIO, either SSL_read() or SSL_write()s +can be called during the protocol startup and things will +still work correctly. +The nice aspect of the use of the BIO_should_retry() macro +is that all the errno codes that indicate a non-fatal error +are encapsulated in one place. The Windows specific error +codes and WSAGetLastError() calls are also hidden from the +application. + +Notes on each BIO method. +Normally buffer.h is just required but depending on the +BIO_METHOD, ssl.h or evp.h will also be required. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_mem(void); +- BIO_set_mem_buf(BIO *bio, BUF_MEM *bm, int close_flag) - + set the underlying BUF_MEM structure for the BIO to use. +- BIO_get_mem_ptr(BIO *bio, char **pp) - if pp is not NULL, + set it to point to the memory array and return the number + of bytes available. +A read/write BIO. Any data written is appended to the +memory array and any read is read from the front. This BIO +can be used for read/write at the same time. BIO_gets() is +supported in the fgets() sense. +BIO_CTRL_INFO can be used to retrieve pointers to the memory +buffer and it's length. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_file(void); +- BIO_set_fp(BIO *bio, FILE *fp, int close_flag) - set 'FILE *' to use. +- BIO_get_fp(BIO *bio, FILE **fp) - get the 'FILE *' in use. +- BIO_read_filename(BIO *bio, char *name) - read from file. +- BIO_write_filename(BIO *bio, char *name) - write to file. +- BIO_append_filename(BIO *bio, char *name) - append to file. +This BIO sits over the normal system fread()/fgets() type +functions. Gets() is supported. This BIO in theory could be +used for read and write but it is best to think of each BIO +of this type as either a read or a write BIO, not both. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_socket(void); +BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_fd(void); +- BIO_sock_should_retry(int i) - the underlying function + used to determine if a call should be retried; the + argument is the '0' or '-1' returned by the previous BIO + operation. +- BIO_fd_should_retry(int i) - same as the +- BIO_sock_should_retry() except that it is different internally. +- BIO_set_fd(BIO *bio, int fd, int close_flag) - set the + file descriptor to use +- BIO_get_fd(BIO *bio, int *fd) - get the file descriptor. +These two methods are very similar. Gets() is not +supported, if you want this functionality, put a +BIO_f_buffer() onto it. This BIO is bi-directional if the +underlying file descriptor is. This is normally the case +for sockets but not the case for stdio descriptors. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_s_null(void); +Read and write as much data as you like, it all disappears +into this BIO. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_f_buffer(void); +- BIO_get_buffer_num_lines(BIO *bio) - return the number of + complete lines in the buffer. +- BIO_set_buffer_size(BIO *bio, long size) - set the size of + the buffers. +This type performs input and output buffering. It performs +both at the same time. The size of the buffer can be set +via the set buffer size option. Data buffered for output is +only written when the buffer fills. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_f_ssl(void); +- BIO_set_ssl(BIO *bio, SSL *ssl, int close_flag) - the SSL + structure to use. +- BIO_get_ssl(BIO *bio, SSL **ssl) - get the SSL structure + in use. +The SSL bio is a little different from normal BIOs because +the underlying SSL structure is a little different. A SSL +structure performs IO via a read and write BIO. These can +be different and are normally set via the +SSL_set_rbio()/SSL_set_wbio() calls. The SSL_set_fd() calls +are just wrappers that create socket BIOs and then call +SSL_set_bio() where the read and write BIOs are the same. +The BIO_push() operation makes the SSLs IO BIOs the same, so +make sure the BIO pushed is capable of two directional +traffic. If it is not, you will have to install the BIOs +via the more conventional SSL_set_bio() call. BIO_pop() will retrieve +the 'SSL read' BIO. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_f_md(void); +- BIO_set_md(BIO *bio, EVP_MD *md) - set the message digest + to use. +- BIO_get_md(BIO *bio, EVP_MD **mdp) - return the digest + method in use in mdp, return 0 if not set yet. +- BIO_reset() reinitializes the digest (EVP_DigestInit()) + and passes the reset to the underlying BIOs. +All data read or written via BIO_read() or BIO_write() to +this BIO will be added to the calculated digest. This +implies that this BIO is only one directional. If read and +write operations are performed, two separate BIO_f_md() BIOs +are reuqired to generate digests on both the input and the +output. BIO_gets(BIO *bio, char *md, int size) will place the +generated digest into 'md' and return the number of bytes. +The EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE should probably be used to size the 'md' +array. Reading the digest will also reset it. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_f_cipher(void); +- BIO_reset() reinitializes the cipher. +- BIO_flush() should be called when the last bytes have been + output to flush the final block of block ciphers. +- BIO_get_cipher_status(BIO *b), when called after the last + read from a cipher BIO, returns non-zero if the data + decrypted correctly, otherwise, 0. +- BIO_set_cipher(BIO *b, EVP_CIPHER *c, unsigned char *key, + unsigned char *iv, int encrypt) This function is used to + setup a cipher BIO. The length of key and iv are + specified by the choice of EVP_CIPHER. Encrypt is 1 to + encrypt and 0 to decrypt. + +BIO_METHOD *BIO_f_base64(void); +- BIO_flush() should be called when the last bytes have been output. +This BIO base64 encodes when writing and base64 decodes when +reading. It will scan the input until a suitable begin line +is found. After reading data, BIO_reset() will reset the +BIO to start scanning again. Do not mix reading and writing +on the same base64 BIO. It is meant as a single stream BIO. + +Directions type +both BIO_s_mem() +one/both BIO_s_file() +both BIO_s_fd() +both BIO_s_socket() +both BIO_s_null() +both BIO_f_buffer() +one BIO_f_md() +one BIO_f_cipher() +one BIO_f_base64() +both BIO_f_ssl() + +It is easy to mix one and two directional BIOs, all one has +to do is to keep two separate BIO pointers for reading and +writing and be careful about usage of underlying BIOs. The +SSL bio by it's very nature has to be two directional but +the BIO_push() command will push the one BIO into the SSL +BIO for both reading and writing. + +The best example program to look at is apps/enc.c and/or perhaps apps/dgst.c. + + +==== blowfish.doc ======================================================== + +The Blowfish library. + +Blowfish is a block cipher that operates on 64bit (8 byte) quantities. It +uses variable size key, but 128bit (16 byte) key would normally be considered +good. It can be used in all the modes that DES can be used. This +library implements the ecb, cbc, cfb64, ofb64 modes. + +Blowfish is quite a bit faster that DES, and much faster than IDEA or +RC2. It is one of the faster block ciphers. + +For all calls that have an 'input' and 'output' variables, they can be the +same. + +This library requires the inclusion of 'blowfish.h'. + +All of the encryption functions take what is called an BF_KEY as an +argument. An BF_KEY is an expanded form of the Blowfish key. +For all modes of the Blowfish algorithm, the BF_KEY used for +decryption is the same one that was used for encryption. + +The define BF_ENCRYPT is passed to specify encryption for the functions +that require an encryption/decryption flag. BF_DECRYPT is passed to +specify decryption. + +Please note that any of the encryption modes specified in my DES library +could be used with Blowfish. I have only implemented ecb, cbc, cfb64 and +ofb64 for the following reasons. +- ecb is the basic Blowfish encryption. +- cbc is the normal 'chaining' form for block ciphers. +- cfb64 can be used to encrypt single characters, therefore input and output + do not need to be a multiple of 8. +- ofb64 is similar to cfb64 but is more like a stream cipher, not as + secure (not cipher feedback) but it does not have an encrypt/decrypt mode. +- If you want triple Blowfish, thats 384 bits of key and you must be totally + obsessed with security. Still, if you want it, it is simple enough to + copy the function from the DES library and change the des_encrypt to + BF_encrypt; an exercise left for the paranoid reader :-). + +The functions are as follows: + +void BF_set_key( +BF_KEY *ks; +int len; +unsigned char *key; + BF_set_key converts an 'len' byte key into a BF_KEY. + A 'ks' is an expanded form of the 'key' which is used to + perform actual encryption. It can be regenerated from the Blowfish key + so it only needs to be kept when encryption or decryption is about + to occur. Don't save or pass around BF_KEY's since they + are CPU architecture dependent, 'key's are not. Blowfish is an + interesting cipher in that it can be used with a variable length + key. 'len' is the length of 'key' to be used as the key. + A 'len' of 16 is recomended by me, but blowfish can use upto + 72 bytes. As a warning, blowfish has a very very slow set_key + function, it actually runs BF_encrypt 521 times. + +void BF_encrypt(unsigned long *data, BF_KEY *key); +void BF_decrypt(unsigned long *data, BF_KEY *key); + These are the Blowfish encryption function that gets called by just + about every other Blowfish routine in the library. You should not + use this function except to implement 'modes' of Blowfish. + I say this because the + functions that call this routine do the conversion from 'char *' to + long, and this needs to be done to make sure 'non-aligned' memory + access do not occur. + Data is a pointer to 2 unsigned long's and key is the + BF_KEY to use. + +void BF_ecb_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +BF_KEY *key, +int encrypt); + This is the basic Electronic Code Book form of Blowfish (in DES this + mode is called Electronic Code Book so I'm going to use the term + for blowfish as well. + Input is encrypted into output using the key represented by + key. Depending on the encrypt, encryption or + decryption occurs. Input is 8 bytes long and output is 8 bytes. + +void BF_cbc_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +BF_KEY *ks, +unsigned char *ivec, +int encrypt); + This routine implements Blowfish in Cipher Block Chaining mode. + Input, which should be a multiple of 8 bytes is encrypted + (or decrypted) to output which will also be a multiple of 8 bytes. + The number of bytes is in length (and from what I've said above, + should be a multiple of 8). If length is not a multiple of 8, bad + things will probably happen. ivec is the initialisation vector. + This function updates iv after each call so that it can be passed to + the next call to BF_cbc_encrypt(). + +void BF_cfb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +BF_KEY *schedule, +unsigned char *ivec, +int *num, +int encrypt); + This is one of the more useful functions in this Blowfish library, it + implements CFB mode of Blowfish with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + 'Encrypt' is used to indicate encryption or decryption. + CFB64 mode operates by using the cipher to generate a stream + of bytes which is used to encrypt the plain text. + The cipher text is then encrypted to generate the next 64 bits to + be xored (incrementally) with the next 64 bits of plain + text. As can be seen from this, to encrypt or decrypt, + the same 'cipher stream' needs to be generated but the way the next + block of data is gathered for encryption is different for + encryption and decryption. + +void BF_ofb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +BF_KEY *schedule, +unsigned char *ivec, +int *num); + This functions implements OFB mode of Blowfish with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + This is in effect a stream cipher, there is no encryption or + decryption mode. + +For reading passwords, I suggest using des_read_pw_string() from my DES library. +To generate a password from a text string, I suggest using MD5 (or MD2) to +produce a 16 byte message digest that can then be passed directly to +BF_set_key(). + +===== +For more information about the specific Blowfish modes in this library +(ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb), read the section entitled 'Modes of DES' from the +documentation on my DES library. What is said about DES is directly +applicable for Blowfish. + + +==== bn.doc ======================================================== + +The Big Number library. + +#include "bn.h" when using this library. + +This big number library was written for use in implementing the RSA and DH +public key encryption algorithms. As such, features such as negative +numbers have not been extensively tested but they should work as expected. +This library uses dynamic memory allocation for storing its data structures +and so there are no limit on the size of the numbers manipulated by these +routines but there is always the requirement to check return codes from +functions just in case a memory allocation error has occurred. + +The basic object in this library is a BIGNUM. It is used to hold a single +large integer. This type should be considered opaque and fields should not +be modified or accessed directly. +typedef struct bignum_st + { + int top; /* Index of last used d. */ + BN_ULONG *d; /* Pointer to an array of 'BITS2' bit chunks. */ + int max; /* Size of the d array. */ + int neg; + } BIGNUM; +The big number is stored in a malloced array of BN_ULONG's. A BN_ULONG can +be either 16, 32 or 64 bits in size, depending on the 'number of bits' +specified in bn.h. +The 'd' field is this array. 'max' is the size of the 'd' array that has +been allocated. 'top' is the 'last' entry being used, so for a value of 4, +bn.d[0]=4 and bn.top=1. 'neg' is 1 if the number is negative. +When a BIGNUM is '0', the 'd' field can be NULL and top == 0. + +Various routines in this library require the use of 'temporary' BIGNUM +variables during their execution. Due to the use of dynamic memory +allocation to create BIGNUMs being rather expensive when used in +conjunction with repeated subroutine calls, the BN_CTX structure is +used. This structure contains BN_CTX BIGNUMs. BN_CTX +is the maximum number of temporary BIGNUMs any publicly exported +function will use. + +#define BN_CTX 12 +typedef struct bignum_ctx + { + int tos; /* top of stack */ + BIGNUM *bn[BN_CTX]; /* The variables */ + } BN_CTX; + +The functions that follow have been grouped according to function. Most +arithmetic functions return a result in the first argument, sometimes this +first argument can also be an input parameter, sometimes it cannot. These +restrictions are documented. + +extern BIGNUM *BN_value_one; +There is one variable defined by this library, a BIGNUM which contains the +number 1. This variable is useful for use in comparisons and assignment. + +Get Size functions. + +int BN_num_bits(BIGNUM *a); + This function returns the size of 'a' in bits. + +int BN_num_bytes(BIGNUM *a); + This function (macro) returns the size of 'a' in bytes. + For conversion of BIGNUMs to byte streams, this is the number of + bytes the output string will occupy. If the output byte + format specifies that the 'top' bit indicates if the number is + signed, so an extra '0' byte is required if the top bit on a + positive number is being written, it is upto the application to + make this adjustment. Like I said at the start, I don't + really support negative numbers :-). + +Creation/Destruction routines. + +BIGNUM *BN_new(); + Return a new BIGNUM object. The number initially has a value of 0. If + there is an error, NULL is returned. + +void BN_free(BIGNUM *a); + Free()s a BIGNUM. + +void BN_clear(BIGNUM *a); + Sets 'a' to a value of 0 and also zeros all unused allocated + memory. This function is used to clear a variable of 'sensitive' + data that was held in it. + +void BN_clear_free(BIGNUM *a); + This function zeros the memory used by 'a' and then free()'s it. + This function should be used to BN_free() BIGNUMS that have held + sensitive numeric values like RSA private key values. Both this + function and BN_clear tend to only be used by RSA and DH routines. + +BN_CTX *BN_CTX_new(void); + Returns a new BN_CTX. NULL on error. + +void BN_CTX_free(BN_CTX *c); + Free a BN_CTX structure. The BIGNUMs in 'c' are BN_clear_free()ed. + +BIGNUM *bn_expand(BIGNUM *b, int bits); + This is an internal function that should not normally be used. It + ensures that 'b' has enough room for a 'bits' bit number. It is + mostly used by the various BIGNUM routines. If there is an error, + NULL is returned. if not, 'b' is returned. + +BIGNUM *BN_copy(BIGNUM *to, BIGNUM *from); + The 'from' is copied into 'to'. NULL is returned if there is an + error, otherwise 'to' is returned. + +BIGNUM *BN_dup(BIGNUM *a); + A new BIGNUM is created and returned containing the value of 'a'. + NULL is returned on error. + +Comparison and Test Functions. + +int BN_is_zero(BIGNUM *a) + Return 1 if 'a' is zero, else 0. + +int BN_is_one(a) + Return 1 is 'a' is one, else 0. + +int BN_is_word(a,w) + Return 1 if 'a' == w, else 0. 'w' is a BN_ULONG. + +int BN_cmp(BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b); + Return -1 if 'a' is less than 'b', 0 if 'a' and 'b' are the same + and 1 is 'a' is greater than 'b'. This is a signed comparison. + +int BN_ucmp(BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b); + This function is the same as BN_cmp except that the comparison + ignores the sign of the numbers. + +Arithmetic Functions +For all of these functions, 0 is returned if there is an error and 1 is +returned for success. The return value should always be checked. eg. +if (!BN_add(r,a,b)) goto err; +Unless explicitly mentioned, the 'return' value can be one of the +'parameters' to the function. + +int BN_add(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b); + Add 'a' and 'b' and return the result in 'r'. This is r=a+b. + +int BN_sub(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b); + Subtract 'a' from 'b' and put the result in 'r'. This is r=a-b. + +int BN_lshift(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, int n); + Shift 'a' left by 'n' bits. This is r=a*(2^n). + +int BN_lshift1(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a); + Shift 'a' left by 1 bit. This form is more efficient than + BN_lshift(r,a,1). This is r=a*2. + +int BN_rshift(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, int n); + Shift 'a' right by 'n' bits. This is r=int(a/(2^n)). + +int BN_rshift1(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a); + Shift 'a' right by 1 bit. This form is more efficient than + BN_rshift(r,a,1). This is r=int(a/2). + +int BN_mul(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b); + Multiply a by b and return the result in 'r'. 'r' must not be + either 'a' or 'b'. It has to be a different BIGNUM. + This is r=a*b. + +int BN_sqr(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BN_CTX *ctx); + Multiply a by a and return the result in 'r'. 'r' must not be + 'a'. This function is alot faster than BN_mul(r,a,a). This is r=a*a. + +int BN_div(BIGNUM *dv, BIGNUM *rem, BIGNUM *m, BIGNUM *d, BN_CTX *ctx); + Divide 'm' by 'd' and return the result in 'dv' and the remainder + in 'rem'. Either of 'dv' or 'rem' can be NULL in which case that + value is not returned. 'ctx' needs to be passed as a source of + temporary BIGNUM variables. + This is dv=int(m/d), rem=m%d. + +int BN_mod(BIGNUM *rem, BIGNUM *m, BIGNUM *d, BN_CTX *ctx); + Find the remainder of 'm' divided by 'd' and return it in 'rem'. + 'ctx' holds the temporary BIGNUMs required by this function. + This function is more efficient than BN_div(NULL,rem,m,d,ctx); + This is rem=m%d. + +int BN_mod_mul(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *b, BIGNUM *m,BN_CTX *ctx); + Multiply 'a' by 'b' and return the remainder when divided by 'm'. + 'ctx' holds the temporary BIGNUMs required by this function. + This is r=(a*b)%m. + +int BN_mod_exp(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *p, BIGNUM *m,BN_CTX *ctx); + Raise 'a' to the 'p' power and return the remainder when divided by + 'm'. 'ctx' holds the temporary BIGNUMs required by this function. + This is r=(a^p)%m. + +int BN_reciprocal(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *m, BN_CTX *ctx); + Return the reciprocal of 'm'. 'ctx' holds the temporary variables + required. This function returns -1 on error, otherwise it returns + the number of bits 'r' is shifted left to make 'r' into an integer. + This number of bits shifted is required in BN_mod_mul_reciprocal(). + This is r=(1/m)<<(BN_num_bits(m)+1). + +int BN_mod_mul_reciprocal(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *x, BIGNUM *y, BIGNUM *m, + BIGNUM *i, int nb, BN_CTX *ctx); + This function is used to perform an efficient BN_mod_mul() + operation. If one is going to repeatedly perform BN_mod_mul() with + the same modulus is worth calculating the reciprocal of the modulus + and then using this function. This operation uses the fact that + a/b == a*r where r is the reciprocal of b. On modern computers + multiplication is very fast and big number division is very slow. + 'x' is multiplied by 'y' and then divided by 'm' and the remainder + is returned. 'i' is the reciprocal of 'm' and 'nb' is the number + of bits as returned from BN_reciprocal(). Normal usage is as follows. + bn=BN_reciprocal(i,m); + for (...) + { BN_mod_mul_reciprocal(r,x,y,m,i,bn,ctx); } + This is r=(x*y)%m. Internally it is approximately + r=(x*y)-m*(x*y/m) or r=(x*y)-m*((x*y*i) >> bn) + This function is used in BN_mod_exp() and BN_is_prime(). + +Assignment Operations + +int BN_one(BIGNUM *a) + Set 'a' to hold the value one. + This is a=1. + +int BN_zero(BIGNUM *a) + Set 'a' to hold the value zero. + This is a=0. + +int BN_set_word(BIGNUM *a, unsigned long w); + Set 'a' to hold the value of 'w'. 'w' is an unsigned long. + This is a=w. + +unsigned long BN_get_word(BIGNUM *a); + Returns 'a' in an unsigned long. Not remarkably, often 'a' will + be biger than a word, in which case 0xffffffffL is returned. + +Word Operations +These functions are much more efficient that the normal bignum arithmetic +operations. + +BN_ULONG BN_mod_word(BIGNUM *a, unsigned long w); + Return the remainder of 'a' divided by 'w'. + This is return(a%w). + +int BN_add_word(BIGNUM *a, unsigned long w); + Add 'w' to 'a'. This function does not take the sign of 'a' into + account. This is a+=w; + +Bit operations. + +int BN_is_bit_set(BIGNUM *a, int n); + This function return 1 if bit 'n' is set in 'a' else 0. + +int BN_set_bit(BIGNUM *a, int n); + This function sets bit 'n' to 1 in 'a'. + This is a&= ~(1<<n); + +int BN_clear_bit(BIGNUM *a, int n); + This function sets bit 'n' to zero in 'a'. Return 0 if less + than 'n' bits in 'a' else 1. This is a&= ~(1<<n); + +int BN_mask_bits(BIGNUM *a, int n); + Truncate 'a' to n bits long. This is a&= ~((~0)<<n) + +Format conversion routines. + +BIGNUM *BN_bin2bn(unsigned char *s, int len,BIGNUM *ret); + This function converts 'len' bytes in 's' into a BIGNUM which + is put in 'ret'. If ret is NULL, a new BIGNUM is created. + Either this new BIGNUM or ret is returned. The number is + assumed to be in bigendian form in 's'. By this I mean that + to 'ret' is created as follows for 'len' == 5. + ret = s[0]*2^32 + s[1]*2^24 + s[2]*2^16 + s[3]*2^8 + s[4]; + This function cannot be used to convert negative numbers. It + is always assumed the number is positive. The application + needs to diddle the 'neg' field of th BIGNUM its self. + The better solution would be to save the numbers in ASN.1 format + since this is a defined standard for storing big numbers. + Look at the functions + + ASN1_INTEGER *BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER(BIGNUM *bn, ASN1_INTEGER *ai); + BIGNUM *ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN(ASN1_INTEGER *ai,BIGNUM *bn); + int i2d_ASN1_INTEGER(ASN1_INTEGER *a,unsigned char **pp); + ASN1_INTEGER *d2i_ASN1_INTEGER(ASN1_INTEGER **a,unsigned char **pp, + long length; + +int BN_bn2bin(BIGNUM *a, unsigned char *to); + This function converts 'a' to a byte string which is put into + 'to'. The representation is big-endian in that the most + significant byte of 'a' is put into to[0]. This function + returns the number of bytes used to hold 'a'. BN_num_bytes(a) + would return the same value and can be used to determine how + large 'to' needs to be. If the number is negative, this + information is lost. Since this library was written to + manipulate large positive integers, the inability to save and + restore them is not considered to be a problem by me :-). + As for BN_bin2bn(), look at the ASN.1 integer encoding funtions + for SSLeay. They use BN_bin2bn() and BN_bn2bin() internally. + +char *BN_bn2ascii(BIGNUM *a); + This function returns a malloc()ed string that contains the + ascii hexadecimal encoding of 'a'. The number is in bigendian + format with a '-' in front if the number is negative. + +int BN_ascii2bn(BIGNUM **bn, char *a); + The inverse of BN_bn2ascii. The function returns the number of + characters from 'a' were processed in generating a the bignum. + error is inticated by 0 being returned. The number is a + hex digit string, optionally with a leading '-'. If *bn + is null, a BIGNUM is created and returned via that variable. + +int BN_print_fp(FILE *fp, BIGNUM *a); + 'a' is printed to file pointer 'fp'. It is in the same format + that is output from BN_bn2ascii(). 0 is returned on error, + 1 if things are ok. + +int BN_print(BIO *bp, BIGNUM *a); + Same as BN_print except that the output is done to the SSLeay libraries + BIO routines. BN_print_fp() actually calls this function. + +Miscellaneous Routines. + +int BN_rand(BIGNUM *rnd, int bits, int top, int bottom); + This function returns in 'rnd' a random BIGNUM that is bits + long. If bottom is 1, the number returned is odd. If top is set, + the top 2 bits of the number are set. This is useful because if + this is set, 2 'n; bit numbers multiplied together will return a 2n + bit number. If top was not set, they could produce a 2n-1 bit + number. + +BIGNUM *BN_mod_inverse(BIGNUM *a, BIGNUM *n,BN_CTX *ctx); + This function create a new BIGNUM and returns it. This number + is the inverse mod 'n' of 'a'. By this it is meant that the + returned value 'r' satisfies (a*r)%n == 1. This function is + used in the generation of RSA keys. 'ctx', as per usual, + is used to hold temporary variables that are required by the + function. NULL is returned on error. + +int BN_gcd(BIGNUM *r,BIGNUM *a,BIGNUM *b,BN_CTX *ctx); + 'r' has the greatest common divisor of 'a' and 'b'. 'ctx' is + used for temporary variables and 0 is returned on error. + +int BN_is_prime(BIGNUM *p,int nchecks,void (*callback)(),BN_CTX *ctx, + char *cb_arg); + This function is used to check if a BIGNUM ('p') is prime. + It performs this test by using the Miller-Rabin randomised + primality test. This is a probalistic test that requires a + number of rounds to ensure the number is prime to a high + degree of probability. Since this can take quite some time, a + callback function can be passed and it will be called each + time 'p' passes a round of the prime testing. 'callback' will + be called as follows, callback(1,n,cb_arg) where n is the number of + the round, just passed. As per usual 'ctx' contains temporary + variables used. If ctx is NULL, it does not matter, a local version + will be malloced. This parameter is present to save some mallocing + inside the function but probably could be removed. + 0 is returned on error. + 'ncheck' is the number of Miller-Rabin tests to run. It is + suggested to use the value 'BN_prime_checks' by default. + +BIGNUM *BN_generate_prime( +int bits, +int strong, +BIGNUM *a, +BIGNUM *rems, +void (*callback)()); +char *cb_arg + This function is used to generate prime numbers. It returns a + new BIGNUM that has a high probability of being a prime. + 'bits' is the number of bits that + are to be in the prime. If 'strong' is true, the returned prime + will also be a strong prime ((p-1)/2 is also prime). + While searching for the prime ('p'), we + can add the requirement that the prime fill the following + condition p%a == rem. This can be used to help search for + primes with specific features, which is required when looking + for primes suitable for use with certain 'g' values in the + Diffie-Hellman key exchange algorithm. If 'a' is NULL, + this condition is not checked. If rem is NULL, rem is assumed + to be 1. Since this search for a prime + can take quite some time, if callback is not NULL, it is called + in the following situations. + We have a suspected prime (from a quick sieve), + callback(0,sus_prime++,cb_arg). Each item to be passed to BN_is_prime(). + callback(1,round++,cb_arg). Each successful 'round' in BN_is_prime(). + callback(2,round,cb_arg). For each successful BN_is_prime() test. + +Hints +----- + +DSA wants 64*32 to use word mont mul, but RSA wants to use full. + +==== callback.doc ======================================================== + +Callback functions used in SSLeay. + +-------------------------- +The BIO library. + +Each BIO structure can have a callback defined against it. This callback is +called 2 times for each BIO 'function'. It is passed 6 parameters. +BIO_debug_callback() is an example callback which is defined in +crypto/buffer/bio_cb.c and is used in apps/dgst.c This is intended mostly +for debuging or to notify the application of IO. + +long BIO_debug_callback(BIO *bio,int cmd,char *argp,int argi,long argl, + long ret); +bio is the BIO being called, cmd is the type of BIO function being called. +Look at the BIO_CB_* defines in buffer.h. Argp and argi are the arguments +passed to BIO_read(), BIO_write, BIO_gets(), BIO_puts(). In the case of +BIO_ctrl(), argl is also defined. The first time the callback is called, +before the underlying function has been executed, 0 is passed as 'ret', and +if the return code from the callback is not > 0, the call is aborted +and the returned <= 0 value is returned. +The second time the callback is called, the 'cmd' value also has +BIO_CB_RETURN logically 'or'ed with it. The 'ret' value is the value returned +from the actuall function call and whatever the callback returns is returned +from the BIO function. + +BIO_set_callback(b,cb) can be used to set the callback function +(b is a BIO), and BIO_set_callback_arg(b,arg) can be used to +set the cb_arg argument in the BIO strucutre. This field is only intended +to be used by application, primarily in the callback function since it is +accessable since the BIO is passed. + +-------------------------- +The PEM library. + +The pem library only really uses one type of callback, +static int def_callback(char *buf, int num, int verify); +which is used to return a password string if required. +'buf' is the buffer to put the string in. 'num' is the size of 'buf' +and 'verify' is used to indicate that the password should be checked. +This last flag is mostly used when reading a password for encryption. + +For all of these functions, a NULL callback will call the above mentioned +default callback. This default function does not work under Windows 3.1. +For other machines, it will use an application defined prompt string +(EVP_set_pw_prompt(), which defines a library wide prompt string) +if defined, otherwise it will use it's own PEM password prompt. +It will then call EVP_read_pw_string() to get a password from the console. +If your application wishes to use nice fancy windows to retrieve passwords, +replace this function. The callback should return the number of bytes read +into 'buf'. If the number of bytes <= 0, it is considered an error. + +Functions that take this callback are listed below. For the 'read' type +functions, the callback will only be required if the PEM data is encrypted. + +For the Write functions, normally a password can be passed in 'kstr', of +'klen' bytes which will be used if the 'enc' cipher is not NULL. If +'kstr' is NULL, the callback will be used to retrieve a password. + +int PEM_do_header (EVP_CIPHER_INFO *cipher, unsigned char *data,long *len, + int (*callback)()); +char *PEM_ASN1_read_bio(char *(*d2i)(),char *name,BIO *bp,char **x,int (*cb)()); +char *PEM_ASN1_read(char *(*d2i)(),char *name,FILE *fp,char **x,int (*cb)()); +int PEM_ASN1_write_bio(int (*i2d)(),char *name,BIO *bp,char *x, + EVP_CIPHER *enc,unsigned char *kstr,int klen,int (*callback)()); +int PEM_ASN1_write(int (*i2d)(),char *name,FILE *fp,char *x, + EVP_CIPHER *enc,unsigned char *kstr,int klen,int (*callback)()); +STACK *PEM_X509_INFO_read(FILE *fp, STACK *sk, int (*cb)()); +STACK *PEM_X509_INFO_read_bio(BIO *fp, STACK *sk, int (*cb)()); + +#define PEM_write_RSAPrivateKey(fp,x,enc,kstr,klen,cb) +#define PEM_write_DSAPrivateKey(fp,x,enc,kstr,klen,cb) +#define PEM_write_bio_RSAPrivateKey(bp,x,enc,kstr,klen,cb) +#define PEM_write_bio_DSAPrivateKey(bp,x,enc,kstr,klen,cb) +#define PEM_read_SSL_SESSION(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_X509(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_X509_REQ(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_X509_CRL(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_RSAPrivateKey(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_DSAPrivateKey(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_PrivateKey(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_PKCS7(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_DHparams(fp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_SSL_SESSION(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_X509(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_X509_CRL(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_RSAPrivateKey(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_DSAPrivateKey(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_PKCS7(bp,x,cb) +#define PEM_read_bio_DHparams(bp,x,cb) +int i2d_Netscape_RSA(RSA *a, unsigned char **pp, int (*cb)()); +RSA *d2i_Netscape_RSA(RSA **a, unsigned char **pp, long length, int (*cb)()); + +Now you will notice that macros like +#define PEM_write_X509(fp,x) \ + PEM_ASN1_write((int (*)())i2d_X509,PEM_STRING_X509,fp, \ + (char *)x, NULL,NULL,0,NULL) +Don't do encryption normally. If you want to PEM encrypt your X509 structure, +either just call PEM_ASN1_write directly or just define you own +macro variant. As you can see, this macro just sets all encryption related +parameters to NULL. + + +-------------------------- +The SSL library. + +#define SSL_set_info_callback(ssl,cb) +#define SSL_CTX_set_info_callback(ctx,cb) +void callback(SSL *ssl,int location,int ret) +This callback is called each time around the SSL_connect()/SSL_accept() +state machine. So it will be called each time the SSL protocol progresses. +It is mostly present for use when debugging. When SSL_connect() or +SSL_accept() return, the location flag is SSL_CB_ACCEPT_EXIT or +SSL_CB_CONNECT_EXIT and 'ret' is the value about to be returned. +Have a look at the SSL_CB_* defines in ssl.h. If an info callback is defined +against the SSL_CTX, it is called unless there is one set against the SSL. +Have a look at +void client_info_callback() in apps/s_client() for an example. + +Certificate verification. +void SSL_set_verify(SSL *s, int mode, int (*callback) ()); +void SSL_CTX_set_verify(SSL_CTX *ctx,int mode,int (*callback)()); +This callback is used to help verify client and server X509 certificates. +It is actually passed to X509_cert_verify(), along with the SSL structure +so you have to read about X509_cert_verify() :-). The SSL_CTX version is used +if the SSL version is not defined. X509_cert_verify() is the function used +by the SSL part of the library to verify certificates. This function is +nearly always defined by the application. + +void SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(),char *arg); +int callback(char *arg,SSL *s,X509 *xs,STACK *cert_chain); +This call is used to replace the SSLeay certificate verification code. +The 'arg' is kept in the SSL_CTX and is passed to the callback. +If the callback returns 0, the certificate is rejected, otherwise it +is accepted. The callback is replacing the X509_cert_verify() call. +This feature is not often used, but if you wished to implement +some totally different certificate authentication system, this 'hook' is +vital. + +SSLeay keeps a cache of session-ids against each SSL_CTX. These callbacks can +be used to notify the application when a SSL_SESSION is added to the cache +or to retrieve a SSL_SESSION that is not in the cache from the application. +#define SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb(ctx,cb) +SSL_SESSION *callback(SSL *s,char *session_id,int session_id_len,int *copy); +If defined, this callback is called to return the SESSION_ID for the +session-id in 'session_id', of 'session_id_len' bytes. 'copy' is set to 1 +if the server is to 'take a copy' of the SSL_SESSION structure. It is 0 +if the SSL_SESSION is being 'passed in' so the SSLeay library is now +responsible for 'free()ing' the structure. Basically it is used to indicate +if the reference count on the SSL_SESSION structure needs to be incremented. + +#define SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb(ctx,cb) +int callback(SSL *s, SSL_SESSION *sess); +When a new connection is established, if the SSL_SESSION is going to be added +to the cache, this callback is called. Return 1 if a 'copy' is required, +otherwise, return 0. This return value just causes the reference count +to be incremented (on return of a 1), this means the application does +not need to worry about incrementing the refernece count (and the +locking that implies in a multi-threaded application). + +void SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx,int (*cb)()); +This sets the SSL password reading function. +It is mostly used for windowing applications +and used by PEM_read_bio_X509() and PEM_read_bio_RSAPrivateKey() +calls inside the SSL library. The only reason this is present is because the +calls to PEM_* functions is hidden in the SSLeay library so you have to +pass in the callback some how. + +#define SSL_CTX_set_client_cert_cb(ctx,cb) +int callback(SSL *s,X509 **x509, EVP_PKEY **pkey); +Called when a client certificate is requested but there is not one set +against the SSL_CTX or the SSL. If the callback returns 1, x509 and +pkey need to point to valid data. The library will free these when +required so if the application wants to keep these around, increment +their reference counts. If 0 is returned, no client cert is +available. If -1 is returned, it is assumed that the callback needs +to be called again at a later point in time. SSL_connect will return +-1 and SSL_want_x509_lookup(ssl) returns true. Remember that +application data can be attached to an SSL structure via the +SSL_set_app_data(SSL *ssl,char *data) call. + +-------------------------- +The X509 library. + +int X509_cert_verify(CERTIFICATE_CTX *ctx,X509 *xs, int (*cb)(), + int *error,char *arg,STACK *cert_chain); +int verify_callback(int ok,X509 *xs,X509 *xi,int depth,int error,char *arg, + STACK *cert_chain); + +X509_cert_verify() is used to authenticate X509 certificates. The 'ctx' holds +the details of the various caches and files used to locate certificates. +'xs' is the certificate to verify and 'cb' is the application callback (more +detail later). 'error' will be set to the error code and 'arg' is passed +to the 'cb' callback. Look at the VERIFY_* defines in crypto/x509/x509.h + +When ever X509_cert_verify() makes a 'negative' decision about a +certitificate, the callback is called. If everything checks out, the +callback is called with 'VERIFY_OK' or 'VERIFY_ROOT_OK' (for a self +signed cert that is not the passed certificate). + +The callback is passed the X509_cert_verify opinion of the certificate +in 'ok', the certificate in 'xs', the issuer certificate in 'xi', +the 'depth' of the certificate in the verification 'chain', the +VERIFY_* code in 'error' and the argument passed to X509_cert_verify() +in 'arg'. cert_chain is a list of extra certs to use if they are not +in the cache. + +The callback can be used to look at the error reason, and then return 0 +for an 'error' or '1' for ok. This will override the X509_cert_verify() +opinion of the certificates validity. Processing will continue depending on +the return value. If one just wishes to use the callback for informational +reason, just return the 'ok' parameter. + +-------------------------- +The BN and DH library. + +BIGNUM *BN_generate_prime(int bits,int strong,BIGNUM *add, + BIGNUM *rem,void (*callback)(int,int)); +int BN_is_prime(BIGNUM *p,int nchecks,void (*callback)(int,int), + +Read doc/bn.doc for the description of these 2. + +DH *DH_generate_parameters(int prime_len,int generator, + void (*callback)(int,int)); +Read doc/bn.doc for the description of the callback, since it is just passed +to BN_generate_prime(), except that it is also called as +callback(3,0) by this function. + +-------------------------- +The CRYPTO library. + +void CRYPTO_set_locking_callback(void (*func)(int mode,int type,char *file, + int line)); +void CRYPTO_set_add_lock_callback(int (*func)(int *num,int mount, + int type,char *file, int line)); +void CRYPTO_set_id_callback(unsigned long (*func)(void)); + +Read threads.doc for info on these ones. + + +==== cipher.doc ======================================================== + +The Cipher subroutines. + +These routines require "evp.h" to be included. + +These functions are a higher level interface to the various cipher +routines found in this library. As such, they allow the same code to be +used to encrypt and decrypt via different ciphers with only a change +in an initial parameter. These routines also provide buffering for block +ciphers. + +These routines all take a pointer to the following structure to specify +which cipher to use. If you wish to use a new cipher with these routines, +you would probably be best off looking an how an existing cipher is +implemented and copying it. At this point in time, I'm not going to go +into many details. This structure should be considered opaque + +typedef struct pem_cipher_st + { + int type; + int block_size; + int key_len; + int iv_len; + void (*enc_init)(); /* init for encryption */ + void (*dec_init)(); /* init for decryption */ + void (*do_cipher)(); /* encrypt data */ + } EVP_CIPHER; + +The type field is the object NID of the cipher type +(read the section on Objects for an explanation of what a NID is). +The cipher block_size is how many bytes need to be passed +to the cipher at a time. Key_len is the +length of the key the cipher requires and iv_len is the length of the +initialisation vector required. enc_init is the function +called to initialise the ciphers context for encryption and dec_init is the +function to initialise for decryption (they need to be different, especially +for the IDEA cipher). + +One reason for specifying the Cipher via a pointer to a structure +is that if you only use des-cbc, only the des-cbc routines will +be included when you link the program. If you passed an integer +that specified which cipher to use, the routine that mapped that +integer to a set of cipher functions would cause all the ciphers +to be link into the code. This setup also allows new ciphers +to be added by the application (with some restrictions). + +The thirteen ciphers currently defined in this library are + +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ecb(); /* DES in ecb mode, iv=0, block=8, key= 8 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede(); /* DES in ecb ede mode, iv=0, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede3(); /* DES in ecb ede mode, iv=0, block=8, key=24 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_cfb(); /* DES in cfb mode, iv=8, block=1, key= 8 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede_cfb(); /* DES in ede cfb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede3_cfb();/* DES in ede cfb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=24 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ofb(); /* DES in ofb mode, iv=8, block=1, key= 8 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede_ofb(); /* DES in ede ofb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede3_ofb();/* DES in ede ofb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=24 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_cbc(); /* DES in cbc mode, iv=8, block=8, key= 8 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede_cbc(); /* DES in cbc ede mode, iv=8, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_des_ede3_cbc();/* DES in cbc ede mode, iv=8, block=8, key=24 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_desx_cbc(); /* DES in desx cbc mode,iv=8, block=8, key=24 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc4(); /* RC4, iv=0, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_idea_ecb(); /* IDEA in ecb mode, iv=0, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_idea_cfb(); /* IDEA in cfb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_idea_ofb(); /* IDEA in ofb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_idea_cbc(); /* IDEA in cbc mode, iv=8, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ecb(); /* RC2 in ecb mode, iv=0, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cfb(); /* RC2 in cfb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ofb(); /* RC2 in ofb mode, iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cbc(); /* RC2 in cbc mode, iv=8, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_bf_ecb(); /* Blowfish in ecb mode,iv=0, block=8, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_bf_cfb(); /* Blowfish in cfb mode,iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_bf_ofb(); /* Blowfish in ofb mode,iv=8, block=1, key=16 */ +EVP_CIPHER *EVP_bf_cbc(); /* Blowfish in cbc mode,iv=8, block=8, key=16 */ + +The meaning of the compound names is as follows. +des The base cipher is DES. +idea The base cipher is IDEA +rc4 The base cipher is RC4-128 +rc2 The base cipher is RC2-128 +ecb Electronic Code Book form of the cipher. +cbc Cipher Block Chaining form of the cipher. +cfb 64 bit Cipher Feedback form of the cipher. +ofb 64 bit Output Feedback form of the cipher. +ede The cipher is used in Encrypt, Decrypt, Encrypt mode.

The encrypt +flag indicates encryption or decryption. buf_len is the number of bytes +currently being held in buf. +The 'c' union holds the cipher specify context. + +The following functions are to be used. + +int EVP_read_pw_string( +char *buf, +int len, +char *prompt, +int verify, + This function is the same as des_read_pw_string() (des.doc). + +void EVP_set_pw_prompt(char *prompt); + This function sets the 'default' prompt to use to use in + EVP_read_pw_string when the prompt parameter is NULL. If the + prompt parameter is NULL, this 'default prompt' feature is turned + off. Be warned, this is a global variable so weird things + will happen if it is used under Win16 and care must be taken + with a multi-threaded version of the library. + +char *EVP_get_pw_prompt(); + This returns a pointer to the default prompt string. NULL + if it is not set. + +int EVP_BytesToKey( +EVP_CIPHER *type, +EVP_MD *md, +unsigned char *salt, +unsigned char *data, +int datal, +int count, +unsigned char *key, +unsigned char *iv); + This function is used to generate a key and an initialisation vector + for a specified cipher from a key string and a salt. Type + specifies the cipher the 'key' is being generated for. Md is the + message digest algorithm to use to generate the key and iv. The salt + is an optional 8 byte object that is used to help seed the key + generator. + If the salt value is NULL, it is just not used. Datal is the + number of bytes to use from 'data' in the key generation. + This function returns the key size for the specified cipher, if + data is NULL, this value is returns and no other + computation is performed. Count is + the number of times to loop around the key generator. I would + suggest leaving it's value as 1. Key and iv are the structures to + place the returning iv and key in. If they are NULL, no value is + generated for that particular value. + The algorithm used is as follows + + /* M[] is an array of message digests + * MD() is the message digest function */ + M[0]=MD(data . salt); + for (i=1; i<count; i++) M[0]=MD(M[0]); + + i=1 + while (data still needed for key and iv) + { + M[i]=MD(M[i-1] . data . salt); + for (i=1; i<count; i++) M[i]=MD(M[i]); + i++; + } + + If the salt is NULL, it is not used. + The digests are concatenated together. + M = M[0] . M[1] . M[2] ....... + + For key= 8, iv=8 => key=M[0.. 8], iv=M[ 9 .. 16]. + For key=16, iv=0 => key=M[0..16]. + For key=16, iv=8 => key=M[0..16], iv=M[17 .. 24]. + For key=24, iv=8 => key=M[0..24], iv=M[25 .. 32]. + + This routine will produce DES-CBC keys and iv that are compatible + with the PKCS-5 standard when md2 or md5 are used. If md5 is + used, the salt is NULL and count is 1, this routine will produce + the password to key mapping normally used with RC4. + I have attempted to logically extend the PKCS-5 standard to + generate keys and iv for ciphers that require more than 16 bytes, + if anyone knows what the correct standard is, please inform me. + When using sha or sha1, things are a bit different under this scheme, + since sha produces a 20 byte digest. So for ciphers requiring + 24 bits of data, 20 will come from the first MD and 4 will + come from the second. + + I have considered having a separate function so this 'routine' + can be used without the requirement of passing a EVP_CIPHER *, + but I have decided to not bother. If you wish to use the + function without official EVP_CIPHER structures, just declare + a local one and set the key_len and iv_len fields to the + length you desire. + +The following routines perform encryption and decryption 'by parts'. By +this I mean that there are groups of 3 routines. An Init function that is +used to specify a cipher and initialise data structures. An Update routine +that does encryption/decryption, one 'chunk' at a time. And finally a +'Final' function that finishes the encryption/decryption process. +All these functions take a EVP_CIPHER pointer to specify which cipher to +encrypt/decrypt with. They also take a EVP_CIPHER_CTX object as an +argument. This structure is used to hold the state information associated +with the operation in progress. + +void EVP_EncryptInit( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +EVP_CIPHER *type, +unsigned char *key, +unsigned char *iv); + This function initialise a EVP_CIPHER_CTX for encryption using the + cipher passed in the 'type' field. The cipher is initialised to use + 'key' as the key and 'iv' for the initialisation vector (if one is + required). If the type, key or iv is NULL, the value currently in the + EVP_CIPHER_CTX is reused. So to perform several decrypt + using the same cipher, key and iv, initialise with the cipher, + key and iv the first time and then for subsequent calls, + reuse 'ctx' but pass NULL for type, key and iv. You must make sure + to pass a key that is large enough for a particular cipher. I + would suggest using the EVP_BytesToKey() function. + +void EVP_EncryptUpdate( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *out, +int *outl, +unsigned char *in, +int inl); + This function takes 'inl' bytes from 'in' and outputs bytes + encrypted by the cipher 'ctx' was initialised with into 'out'. The + number of bytes written to 'out' is put into outl. If a particular + cipher encrypts in blocks, less or more bytes than input may be + output. Currently the largest block size used by supported ciphers + is 8 bytes, so 'out' should have room for 'inl+7' bytes. Normally + EVP_EncryptInit() is called once, followed by lots and lots of + calls to EVP_EncryptUpdate, followed by a single EVP_EncryptFinal + call. + +void EVP_EncryptFinal( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *out, +int *outl); + Because quite a large number of ciphers are block ciphers, there is + often an incomplete block to write out at the end of the + encryption. EVP_EncryptFinal() performs processing on this last + block. The last block in encoded in such a way that it is possible + to determine how many bytes in the last block are valid. For 8 byte + block size ciphers, if only 5 bytes in the last block are valid, the + last three bytes will be filled with the value 3. If only 2 were + valid, the other 6 would be filled with sixes. If all 8 bytes are + valid, a extra 8 bytes are appended to the cipher stream containing + nothing but 8 eights. These last bytes are output into 'out' and + the number of bytes written is put into 'outl' These last bytes + are output into 'out' and the number of bytes written is put into + 'outl'. This form of block cipher finalisation is compatible with + PKCS-5. Please remember that even if you are using ciphers like + RC4 that has no blocking and so the function will not write + anything into 'out', it would still be a good idea to pass a + variable for 'out' that can hold 8 bytes just in case the cipher is + changed some time in the future. It should also be remembered + that the EVP_CIPHER_CTX contains the password and so when one has + finished encryption with a particular EVP_CIPHER_CTX, it is good + practice to zero the structure + (ie. memset(ctx,0,sizeof(EVP_CIPHER_CTX)). + +void EVP_DecryptInit( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +EVP_CIPHER *type, +unsigned char *key, +unsigned char *iv); + This function is basically the same as EVP_EncryptInit() accept that + is prepares the EVP_CIPHER_CTX for decryption. + +void EVP_DecryptUpdate( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *out, +int *outl, +unsigned char *in, +int inl); + This function is basically the same as EVP_EncryptUpdate() + except that it performs decryption. There is one + fundamental difference though. 'out' can not be the same as + 'in' for any ciphers with a block size greater than 1 if more + than one call to EVP_DecryptUpdate() will be made. This + is because this routine can hold a 'partial' block between + calls. When a partial block is decrypted (due to more bytes + being passed via this function, they will be written to 'out' + overwriting the input bytes in 'in' that have not been read + yet. From this it should also be noted that 'out' should + be at least one 'block size' larger than 'inl'. This problem + only occurs on the second and subsequent call to + EVP_DecryptUpdate() when using a block cipher. + +int EVP_DecryptFinal( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *out, +int *outl); + This function is different to EVP_EncryptFinal in that it 'removes' + any padding bytes appended when the data was encrypted. Due to the + way in which 1 to 8 bytes may have been appended when encryption + using a block cipher, 'out' can end up with 0 to 7 bytes being put + into it. When decoding the padding bytes, it is possible to detect + an incorrect decryption. If the decryption appears to be wrong, 0 + is returned. If everything seems ok, 1 is returned. For ciphers + with a block size of 1 (RC4), this function would normally not + return any bytes and would always return 1. Just because this + function returns 1 does not mean the decryption was correct. It + would normally be wrong due to either the wrong key/iv or + corruption of the cipher data fed to EVP_DecryptUpdate(). + As for EVP_EncryptFinal, it is a good idea to zero the + EVP_CIPHER_CTX after use since the structure contains the key used + to decrypt the data. + +The following Cipher routines are convenience routines that call either +EVP_EncryptXxx or EVP_DecryptXxx depending on weather the EVP_CIPHER_CTX +was setup to encrypt or decrypt. + +void EVP_CipherInit( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +EVP_CIPHER *type, +unsigned char *key, +unsigned char *iv, +int enc); + This function take arguments that are the same as EVP_EncryptInit() + and EVP_DecryptInit() except for the extra 'enc' flag. If 1, the + EVP_CIPHER_CTX is setup for encryption, if 0, decryption. + +void EVP_CipherUpdate( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *out, +int *outl, +unsigned char *in, +int inl); + Again this function calls either EVP_EncryptUpdate() or + EVP_DecryptUpdate() depending on state in the 'ctx' structure. + As noted for EVP_DecryptUpdate(), when this routine is used + for decryption with block ciphers, 'out' should not be the + same as 'in'. + +int EVP_CipherFinal( +EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *outm, +int *outl); + This routine call EVP_EncryptFinal() or EVP_DecryptFinal() + depending on the state information in 'ctx'. 1 is always returned + if the mode is encryption, otherwise the return value is the return + value of EVP_DecryptFinal(). + +==== cipher.m ======================================================== + +Date: Tue, 15 Oct 1996 08:16:14 +1000 (EST) +From: Eric Young <eay@mincom.com> +X-Sender: eay@orb +To: Roland Haring <rharing@tandem.cl> +Cc: ssl-users@mincom.com +Subject: Re: Symmetric encryption with ssleay +In-Reply-To: <m0vBpyq-00001aC@tandemnet.tandem.cl> +Message-Id: <Pine.SOL.3.91.961015075623.11394A-100000@orb> +Mime-Version: 1.0 +Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII +Sender: ssl-lists-owner@mincom.com +Precedence: bulk +Status: RO +X-Status: + +On Fri, 11 Oct 1996, Roland Haring wrote: +> THE_POINT: +> Would somebody be so kind to give me the minimum basic +> calls I need to do to libcrypto.a to get some text encrypted +> and decrypted again? ...hopefully with code included to do +> base64 encryption and decryption ... e.g. that sign-it.c code +> posted some while ago was a big help :-) (please, do not point +> me to apps/enc.c where I suspect my Heissenbug to be hidden :-) + +Ok, the base64 encoding stuff in 'enc.c' does the wrong thing sometimes +when the data is less than a line long (this is for decoding).

A section or variable name can be +described by a regular expression of the following form '[A-Za-z0-9_]+'. +The value of the variable is the text after the '=' until the end of the +line, stripped of leading and trailing white space. +At this point I should mention that a '#' is a comment character, \ is the +escape character, and all three types of quote can be used to stop any +special interpretation of the data. +Now when the data is being loaded, variable expansion can occur. This is +done by expanding any $NAME sequences into the value represented by the +variable NAME. If the variable is not in the current section, the different +section can be specified by using the $SECTION::NAME form. The ${NAME} form +also works and is very useful for expanding variables inside strings. + +When a variable is looked up, there are 2 special section. 'default', which +is the initial section, and 'ENV' which is the processes environment +variables (accessed via getenv()). When a variable is looked up, it is +first 'matched' with it's section (if one was specified), if this fails, the +'default' section is matched. +If the 'lhash' variable passed was NULL, the environment is searched. + +Now why do we bother with sections? So we can have multiple programs using +the same configuration file, or multiple instances of the same program +using different variables. It also provides a nice mechanism to override +the processes environment variables (eg ENV::HOME=/tmp). If there is a +program specific variable missing, we can have default values. +Multiple configuration files can be loaded, with each new value clearing +any predefined values. A system config file can provide 'default' values, +and application/usr specific files can provide overriding values. + +Examples + +# This is a simple example +SSLEAY_HOME = /usr/local/ssl +ENV::PATH = $SSLEAY_HOME/bin:$PATH # override my path + +[X509] +cert_dir = $SSLEAY_HOME/certs # /usr/local/ssl/certs + +[SSL] +CIPHER = DES-EDE-MD5:RC4-MD5 +USER_CERT = $HOME/${USER}di'r 5' # /home/eay/eaydir 5 +USER_CERT = $HOME/\${USER}di\'r # /home/eay/${USER}di'r +USER_CERT = "$HOME/${US"ER}di\'r # $HOME/${USER}di'r + +TEST = 1234\ +5678\ +9ab # TEST=123456789ab +TTT = 1234\n\n # TTT=1234<nl><nl> + + + +==== des.doc ======================================================== + +The DES library. + +Please note that this library was originally written to operate with +eBones, a version of Kerberos that had had encryption removed when it left +the USA and then put back in. As such there are some routines that I will +advise not using but they are still in the library for historical reasons. +For all calls that have an 'input' and 'output' variables, they can be the +same. + +This library requires the inclusion of 'des.h'. + +All of the encryption functions take what is called a des_key_schedule as an +argument. A des_key_schedule is an expanded form of the des key. +A des_key is 8 bytes of odd parity, the type used to hold the key is a +des_cblock. A des_cblock is an array of 8 bytes, often in this library +description I will refer to input bytes when the function specifies +des_cblock's as input or output, this just means that the variable should +be a multiple of 8 bytes. + +The define DES_ENCRYPT is passed to specify encryption, DES_DECRYPT to +specify decryption. The functions and global variable are as follows: + +int des_check_key; + DES keys are supposed to be odd parity. If this variable is set to + a non-zero value, des_set_key() will check that the key has odd + parity and is not one of the known weak DES keys. By default this + variable is turned off; + +void des_set_odd_parity( +des_cblock *key ); + This function takes a DES key (8 bytes) and sets the parity to odd. + +int des_is_weak_key( +des_cblock *key ); + This function returns a non-zero value if the DES key passed is a + weak, DES key. If it is a weak key, don't use it, try a different + one. If you are using 'random' keys, the chances of hitting a weak + key are 1/2^52 so it is probably not worth checking for them. + +int des_set_key( +des_cblock *key, +des_key_schedule schedule); + Des_set_key converts an 8 byte DES key into a des_key_schedule. + A des_key_schedule is an expanded form of the key which is used to + perform actual encryption. It can be regenerated from the DES key + so it only needs to be kept when encryption or decryption is about + to occur. Don't save or pass around des_key_schedule's since they + are CPU architecture dependent, DES keys are not. If des_check_key + is non zero, zero is returned if the key has the wrong parity or + the key is a weak key, else 1 is returned. + +int des_key_sched( +des_cblock *key, +des_key_schedule schedule); + An alternative name for des_set_key(). + +int des_rw_mode; /* defaults to DES_PCBC_MODE */ + This flag holds either DES_CBC_MODE or DES_PCBC_MODE (default). + This specifies the function to use in the enc_read() and enc_write() + functions. + +void des_encrypt( +unsigned long *data, +des_key_schedule ks, +int enc); + This is the DES encryption function that gets called by just about + every other DES routine in the library. You should not use this + function except to implement 'modes' of DES. I say this because the + functions that call this routine do the conversion from 'char *' to + long, and this needs to be done to make sure 'non-aligned' memory + access do not occur. The characters are loaded 'little endian', + have a look at my source code for more details on how I use this + function. + Data is a pointer to 2 unsigned long's and ks is the + des_key_schedule to use. enc, is non zero specifies encryption, + zero if decryption. + +void des_encrypt2( +unsigned long *data, +des_key_schedule ks, +int enc); + This functions is the same as des_encrypt() except that the DES + initial permutation (IP) and final permutation (FP) have been left + out. As for des_encrypt(), you should not use this function. + It is used by the routines in my library that implement triple DES. + IP() des_encrypt2() des_encrypt2() des_encrypt2() FP() is the same + as des_encrypt() des_encrypt() des_encrypt() except faster :-). + +void des_ecb_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +des_key_schedule ks, +int enc); + This is the basic Electronic Code Book form of DES, the most basic + form. Input is encrypted into output using the key represented by + ks. If enc is non zero (DES_ENCRYPT), encryption occurs, otherwise + decryption occurs. Input is 8 bytes long and output is 8 bytes. + (the des_cblock structure is 8 chars). + +void des_ecb3_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +des_key_schedule ks1, +des_key_schedule ks2, +des_key_schedule ks3, +int enc); + This is the 3 key EDE mode of ECB DES. What this means is that + the 8 bytes of input is encrypted with ks1, decrypted with ks2 and + then encrypted again with ks3, before being put into output; + C=E(ks3,D(ks2,E(ks1,M))). There is a macro, des_ecb2_encrypt() + that only takes 2 des_key_schedules that implements, + C=E(ks1,D(ks2,E(ks1,M))) in that the final encrypt is done with ks1. + +void des_cbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int enc); + This routine implements DES in Cipher Block Chaining mode. + Input, which should be a multiple of 8 bytes is encrypted + (or decrypted) to output which will also be a multiple of 8 bytes. + The number of bytes is in length (and from what I've said above, + should be a multiple of 8). If length is not a multiple of 8, I'm + not being held responsible :-). ivec is the initialisation vector. + This function does not modify this variable. To correctly implement + cbc mode, you need to do one of 2 things; copy the last 8 bytes of + cipher text for use as the next ivec in your application, + or use des_ncbc_encrypt(). + Only this routine has this problem with updating the ivec, all + other routines that are implementing cbc mode update ivec. + +void des_ncbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule sk, +des_cblock *ivec, +int enc); + For historical reasons, des_cbc_encrypt() did not update the + ivec with the value requires so that subsequent calls to + des_cbc_encrypt() would 'chain'. This was needed so that the same + 'length' values would not need to be used when decrypting. + des_ncbc_encrypt() does the right thing. It is the same as + des_cbc_encrypt accept that ivec is updates with the correct value + to pass in subsequent calls to des_ncbc_encrypt(). I advise using + des_ncbc_encrypt() instead of des_cbc_encrypt(); + +void des_xcbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule sk, +des_cblock *ivec, +des_cblock *inw, +des_cblock *outw, +int enc); + This is RSA's DESX mode of DES. It uses inw and outw to + 'whiten' the encryption. inw and outw are secret (unlike the iv) + and are as such, part of the key. So the key is sort of 24 bytes. + This is much better than cbc des. + +void des_3cbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule sk1, +des_key_schedule sk2, +des_cblock *ivec1, +des_cblock *ivec2, +int enc); + This function is flawed, do not use it. I have left it in the + library because it is used in my des(1) program and will function + correctly when used by des(1). If I removed the function, people + could end up unable to decrypt files. + This routine implements outer triple cbc encryption using 2 ks and + 2 ivec's. Use des_ede2_cbc_encrypt() instead. + +void des_ede3_cbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks1, +des_key_schedule ks2, +des_key_schedule ks3, +des_cblock *ivec, +int enc); + This function implements outer triple CBC DES encryption with 3 + keys. What this means is that each 'DES' operation + inside the cbc mode is really an C=E(ks3,D(ks2,E(ks1,M))). + Again, this is cbc mode so an ivec is requires. + This mode is used by SSL. + There is also a des_ede2_cbc_encrypt() that only uses 2 + des_key_schedule's, the first being reused for the final + encryption. C=E(ks1,D(ks2,E(ks1,M))). This form of triple DES + is used by the RSAref library. + +void des_pcbc_encrypt( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int enc); + This is Propagating Cipher Block Chaining mode of DES. It is used + by Kerberos v4. It's parameters are the same as des_ncbc_encrypt(). + +void des_cfb_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +int numbits, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int enc); + Cipher Feedback Back mode of DES. This implementation 'feeds back' + in numbit blocks. The input (and output) is in multiples of numbits + bits. numbits should to be a multiple of 8 bits. Length is the + number of bytes input. If numbits is not a multiple of 8 bits, + the extra bits in the bytes will be considered padding. So if + numbits is 12, for each 2 input bytes, the 4 high bits of the + second byte will be ignored. So to encode 72 bits when using + a numbits of 12 take 12 bytes. To encode 72 bits when using + numbits of 9 will take 16 bytes. To encode 80 bits when using + numbits of 16 will take 10 bytes. etc, etc. This padding will + apply to both input and output. + + +void des_cfb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num, +int enc); + This is one of the more useful functions in this DES library, it + implements CFB mode of DES with 64bit feedback. Why is this + useful you ask? Because this routine will allow you to encrypt an + arbitrary number of bytes, no 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. If this does + not make much sense, read more about cfb mode of DES :-). + +void des_ede3_cfb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks1, +des_key_schedule ks2, +des_key_schedule ks3, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num, +int enc); + Same as des_cfb64_encrypt() accept that the DES operation is + triple DES. As usual, there is a macro for + des_ede2_cfb64_encrypt() which reuses ks1. + +void des_ofb_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +int numbits, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec); + This is a implementation of Output Feed Back mode of DES. It is + the same as des_cfb_encrypt() in that numbits is the size of the + units dealt with during input and output (in bits). + +void des_ofb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num); + The same as des_cfb64_encrypt() except that it is Output Feed Back + mode. + +void des_ede3_ofb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks1, +des_key_schedule ks2, +des_key_schedule ks3, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num); + Same as des_ofb64_encrypt() accept that the DES operation is + triple DES. As usual, there is a macro for + des_ede2_ofb64_encrypt() which reuses ks1. + +int des_read_pw_string( +char *buf, +int length, +char *prompt, +int verify); + This routine is used to get a password from the terminal with echo + turned off. Buf is where the string will end up and length is the + size of buf. Prompt is a string presented to the 'user' and if + verify is set, the key is asked for twice and unless the 2 copies + match, an error is returned. A return code of -1 indicates a + system error, 1 failure due to use interaction, and 0 is success. + +unsigned long des_cbc_cksum( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec); + This function produces an 8 byte checksum from input that it puts in + output and returns the last 4 bytes as a long. The checksum is + generated via cbc mode of DES in which only the last 8 byes are + kept. I would recommend not using this function but instead using + the EVP_Digest routines, or at least using MD5 or SHA. This + function is used by Kerberos v4 so that is why it stays in the + library. + +char *des_fcrypt( +const char *buf, +const char *salt +char *ret); + This is my fast version of the unix crypt(3) function. This version + takes only a small amount of space relative to other fast + crypt() implementations. This is different to the normal crypt + in that the third parameter is the buffer that the return value + is written into. It needs to be at least 14 bytes long. This + function is thread safe, unlike the normal crypt. + +char *crypt( +const char *buf, +const char *salt); + This function calls des_fcrypt() with a static array passed as the + third parameter. This emulates the normal non-thread safe semantics + of crypt(3). + +void des_string_to_key( +char *str, +des_cblock *key); + This function takes str and converts it into a DES key. I would + recommend using MD5 instead and use the first 8 bytes of output. + When I wrote the first version of these routines back in 1990, MD5 + did not exist but I feel these routines are still sound. This + routines is compatible with the one in MIT's libdes. + +void des_string_to_2keys( +char *str, +des_cblock *key1, +des_cblock *key2); + This function takes str and converts it into 2 DES keys. + I would recommend using MD5 and using the 16 bytes as the 2 keys. + I have nothing against these 2 'string_to_key' routines, it's just + that if you say that your encryption key is generated by using the + 16 bytes of an MD5 hash, every-one knows how you generated your + keys. + +int des_read_password( +des_cblock *key, +char *prompt, +int verify); + This routine combines des_read_pw_string() with des_string_to_key(). + +int des_read_2passwords( +des_cblock *key1, +des_cblock *key2, +char *prompt, +int verify); + This routine combines des_read_pw_string() with des_string_to_2key(). + +void des_random_seed( +des_cblock key); + This routine sets a starting point for des_random_key(). + +void des_random_key( +des_cblock ret); + This function return a random key. Make sure to 'seed' the random + number generator (with des_random_seed()) before using this function. + I personally now use a MD5 based random number system. + +int des_enc_read( +int fd, +char *buf, +int len, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *iv); + This function will write to a file descriptor the encrypted data + from buf. This data will be preceded by a 4 byte 'byte count' and + will be padded out to 8 bytes. The encryption is either CBC of + PCBC depending on the value of des_rw_mode. If it is DES_PCBC_MODE, + pcbc is used, if DES_CBC_MODE, cbc is used. The default is to use + DES_PCBC_MODE. + +int des_enc_write( +int fd, +char *buf, +int len, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *iv); + This routines read stuff written by des_enc_read() and decrypts it. + I have used these routines quite a lot but I don't believe they are + suitable for non-blocking io. If you are after a full + authentication/encryption over networks, have a look at SSL instead. + +unsigned long des_quad_cksum( +des_cblock *input, +des_cblock *output, +long length, +int out_count, +des_cblock *seed); + This is a function from Kerberos v4 that is not anything to do with + DES but was needed. It is a cksum that is quicker to generate than + des_cbc_cksum(); I personally would use MD5 routines now. +===== +Modes of DES +Quite a bit of the following information has been taken from + AS 2805.5.2 + Australian Standard + Electronic funds transfer - Requirements for interfaces, + Part 5.2: Modes of operation for an n-bit block cipher algorithm + Appendix A + +There are several different modes in which DES can be used, they are +as follows. + +Electronic Codebook Mode (ECB) (des_ecb_encrypt()) +- 64 bits are enciphered at a time. +- The order of the blocks can be rearranged without detection. +- The same plaintext block always produces the same ciphertext block + (for the same key) making it vulnerable to a 'dictionary attack'. +- An error will only affect one ciphertext block. + +Cipher Block Chaining Mode (CBC) (des_cbc_encrypt()) +- a multiple of 64 bits are enciphered at a time. +- The CBC mode produces the same ciphertext whenever the same + plaintext is encrypted using the same key and starting variable. +- The chaining operation makes the ciphertext blocks dependent on the + current and all preceding plaintext blocks and therefore blocks can not + be rearranged. +- The use of different starting variables prevents the same plaintext + enciphering to the same ciphertext. +- An error will affect the current and the following ciphertext blocks. + +Cipher Feedback Mode (CFB) (des_cfb_encrypt()) +- a number of bits (j) <= 64 are enciphered at a time. +- The CFB mode produces the same ciphertext whenever the same + plaintext is encrypted using the same key and starting variable. +- The chaining operation makes the ciphertext variables dependent on the + current and all preceding variables and therefore j-bit variables are + chained together and can not be rearranged. +- The use of different starting variables prevents the same plaintext + enciphering to the same ciphertext. +- The strength of the CFB mode depends on the size of k (maximal if + j == k). In my implementation this is always the case. +- Selection of a small value for j will require more cycles through + the encipherment algorithm per unit of plaintext and thus cause + greater processing overheads. +- Only multiples of j bits can be enciphered. +- An error will affect the current and the following ciphertext variables. + +Output Feedback Mode (OFB) (des_ofb_encrypt()) +- a number of bits (j) <= 64 are enciphered at a time. +- The OFB mode produces the same ciphertext whenever the same + plaintext enciphered using the same key and starting variable. More + over, in the OFB mode the same key stream is produced when the same + key and start variable are used. Consequently, for security reasons + a specific start variable should be used only once for a given key. +- The absence of chaining makes the OFB more vulnerable to specific attacks. +- The use of different start variables values prevents the same + plaintext enciphering to the same ciphertext, by producing different + key streams. +- Selection of a small value for j will require more cycles through + the encipherment algorithm per unit of plaintext and thus cause + greater processing overheads. +- Only multiples of j bits can be enciphered. +- OFB mode of operation does not extend ciphertext errors in the + resultant plaintext output. Every bit error in the ciphertext causes + only one bit to be in error in the deciphered plaintext. +- OFB mode is not self-synchronising. If the two operation of + encipherment and decipherment get out of synchronism, the system needs + to be re-initialised. +- Each re-initialisation should use a value of the start variable + different from the start variable values used before with the same + key. The reason for this is that an identical bit stream would be + produced each time from the same parameters. This would be + susceptible to a ' known plaintext' attack. + +Triple ECB Mode (des_ecb3_encrypt()) +- Encrypt with key1, decrypt with key2 and encrypt with key3 again. +- As for ECB encryption but increases the key length to 168 bits. + There are theoretic attacks that can be used that make the effective + key length 112 bits, but this attack also requires 2^56 blocks of + memory, not very likely, even for the NSA. +- If both keys are the same it is equivalent to encrypting once with + just one key. +- If the first and last key are the same, the key length is 112 bits. + There are attacks that could reduce the key space to 55 bit's but it + requires 2^56 blocks of memory. +- If all 3 keys are the same, this is effectively the same as normal + ecb mode. + +Triple CBC Mode (des_ede3_cbc_encrypt()) +- Encrypt with key1, decrypt with key2 and then encrypt with key3. +- As for CBC encryption but increases the key length to 168 bits with + the same restrictions as for triple ecb mode. + +==== digest.doc ======================================================== + + +The Message Digest subroutines. + +These routines require "evp.h" to be included. + +These functions are a higher level interface to the various message digest +routines found in this library. As such, they allow the same code to be +used to digest via different algorithms with only a change in an initial +parameter. They are basically just a front-end to the MD2, MD5, SHA +and SHA1 +routines. + +These routines all take a pointer to the following structure to specify +which message digest algorithm to use. +typedef struct evp_md_st + { + int type; + int pkey_type; + int md_size; + void (*init)(); + void (*update)(); + void (*final)(); + + int required_pkey_type; /*EVP_PKEY_xxx */ + int (*sign)(); + int (*verify)(); + } EVP_MD; + +If additional message digest algorithms are to be supported, a structure of +this type needs to be declared and populated and then the Digest routines +can be used with that algorithm. The type field is the object NID of the +digest type (read the section on Objects for an explanation). The pkey_type +is the Object type to use when the a message digest is generated by there +routines and then is to be signed with the pkey algorithm. Md_size is +the size of the message digest returned. Init, update +and final are the relevant functions to perform the message digest function +by parts. One reason for specifying the message digest to use via this +mechanism is that if you only use md5, only the md5 routines will +be included in you linked program. If you passed an integer +that specified which message digest to use, the routine that mapped that +integer to a set of message digest functions would cause all the message +digests functions to be link into the code. This setup also allows new +message digest functions to be added by the application. + +The six message digests defined in this library are + +EVP_MD *EVP_md2(void); /* RSA sign/verify */ +EVP_MD *EVP_md5(void); /* RSA sign/verify */ +EVP_MD *EVP_sha(void); /* RSA sign/verify */ +EVP_MD *EVP_sha1(void); /* RSA sign/verify */ +EVP_MD *EVP_dss(void); /* DSA sign/verify */ +EVP_MD *EVP_dss1(void); /* DSA sign/verify */ + +All the message digest routines take a EVP_MD_CTX pointer as an argument. +The state of the message digest is kept in this structure. + +typedef struct pem_md_ctx_st + { + EVP_MD *digest; + union { + unsigned char base[4]; /* this is used in my library as a + * 'pointer' to all union elements + * structures. */ + MD2_CTX md2; + MD5_CTX md5; + SHA_CTX sha; + } md; + } EVP_MD_CTX; + +The Digest functions are as follows. + +void EVP_DigestInit( +EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, +EVP_MD *type); + This function is used to initialise the EVP_MD_CTX. The message + digest that will associated with 'ctx' is specified by 'type'. + +void EVP_DigestUpdate( +EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *data, +unsigned int cnt); + This function is used to pass more data to the message digest + function. 'cnt' bytes are digested from 'data'. + +void EVP_DigestFinal( +EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *md, +unsigned int *len); + This function finishes the digestion and puts the message digest + into 'md'. The length of the message digest is put into len; + EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE is the size of the largest message digest that + can be returned from this function. Len can be NULL if the + size of the digest is not required. + + +==== encode.doc ======================================================== + + +void EVP_EncodeInit(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx); +void EVP_EncodeUpdate(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx,unsigned char *out, + int *outl,unsigned char *in,int inl); +void EVP_EncodeFinal(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx,unsigned char *out,int *outl); +int EVP_EncodeBlock(unsigned char *t, unsigned char *f, int n); + +void EVP_DecodeInit(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx); +int EVP_DecodeUpdate(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx,unsigned char *out,int *outl, + unsigned char *in, int inl); +int EVP_DecodeFinal(EVP_ENCODE_CTX *ctx, unsigned + char *out, int *outl); +int EVP_DecodeBlock(unsigned char *t, unsigned + char *f, int n); + + +==== envelope.doc ======================================================== + +The following routines are use to create 'digital' envelopes. +By this I mean that they perform various 'higher' level cryptographic +functions. Have a read of 'cipher.doc' and 'digest.doc' since those +routines are used by these functions. +cipher.doc contains documentation about the cipher part of the +envelope library and digest.doc contatins the description of the +message digests supported. + +To 'sign' a document involves generating a message digest and then encrypting +the digest with an private key. + +#define EVP_SignInit(a,b) EVP_DigestInit(a,b) +#define EVP_SignUpdate(a,b,c) EVP_DigestUpdate(a,b,c) +Due to the fact this operation is basically just an extended message +digest, the first 2 functions are macro calls to Digest generating +functions. + +int EVP_SignFinal( +EVP_MD_CTX *ctx, +unsigned char *md, +unsigned int *s, +EVP_PKEY *pkey); + This finalisation function finishes the generation of the message +digest and then encrypts the digest (with the correct message digest +object identifier) with the EVP_PKEY private key. 'ctx' is the message digest +context. 'md' will end up containing the encrypted message digest. This +array needs to be EVP_PKEY_size(pkey) bytes long. 's' will actually +contain the exact length.

It is more or less setup to record a 'trace' of which +library components were being traversed when the error occurred. + +When an error is recorded, it is done so a as single unsigned long which is +composed of three parts. The top byte is the 'library' number, the middle +12 bytes is the function code, and the bottom 12 bits is the 'reason' code. + +Each 'library', or should a say, 'section' of the SSLeay library has a +different unique 'library' error number. Each function in the library has +a number that is unique for that library. Each 'library' also has a number +for each 'error reason' that is only unique for that 'library'. + +Due to the way these error routines record a 'error trace', there is an +array per thread that is used to store the error codes. +The various functions in this library are used to access +and manipulate this array. + +void ERR_put_error(int lib, int func,int reason); + This routine records an error in library 'lib', function 'func' +and reason 'reason'. As errors get 'put' into the buffer, they wrap +around and overwrite old errors if too many are written. It is assumed +that the last errors are the most important. + +unsigned long ERR_get_error(void ); + This function returns the last error added to the error buffer. +In effect it is popping the value off the buffer so repeated calls will +continue to return values until there are no more errors to return in which +case 0 is returned. + +unsigned long ERR_peek_error(void ); + This function returns the value of the last error added to the +error buffer but does not 'pop' it from the buffer. + +void ERR_clear_error(void ); + This function clears the error buffer, discarding all unread +errors. + +While the above described error system obviously produces lots of different +error number, a method for 'reporting' these errors in a human readable +form is required. To achieve this, each library has the option of +'registering' error strings. + +typedef struct ERR_string_data_st + { + unsigned long error; + char *string; + } ERR_STRING_DATA; + +The 'ERR_STRING_DATA' contains an error code and the corresponding text +string. To add new function error strings for a library, the +ERR_STRING_DATA needs to be 'registered' with the library. + +void ERR_load_strings(unsigned long lib,ERR_STRING_DATA *err); + This function 'registers' the array of ERR_STRING_DATA pointed to by +'err' as error text strings for the error library 'lib'. + +void ERR_free_strings(void); + This function free()s all the loaded error strings. + +char *ERR_error_string(unsigned long error,char *buf); + This function returns a text string that is a human readable +version of the error represented by 'error'. Buff should be at least 120 +bytes long and if it is NULL, the return value is a pointer to a static +variable that will contain the error string, otherwise 'buf' is returned. +If there is not a text string registered for a particular error, a text +string containing the error number is returned instead. + +void ERR_print_errors(BIO *bp); +void ERR_print_errors_fp(FILE *fp); + This function is a convenience routine that prints the error string +for each error until all errors have been accounted for. + +char *ERR_lib_error_string(unsigned long e); +char *ERR_func_error_string(unsigned long e); +char *ERR_reason_error_string(unsigned long e); +The above three functions return the 3 different components strings for the +error 'e'. ERR_error_string() uses these functions. + +void ERR_load_ERR_strings(void ); + This function 'registers' the error strings for the 'ERR' module. + +void ERR_load_crypto_strings(void ); + This function 'register' the error strings for just about every +library in the SSLeay package except for the SSL routines. There is no +need to ever register any error text strings and you will probably save in +program size. If on the other hand you do 'register' all errors, it is +quite easy to determine why a particular routine failed. + +As a final footnote as to why the error system is designed as it is. +1) I did not want a single 'global' error code. +2) I wanted to know which subroutine a failure occurred in. +3) For Windows NT etc, it should be simple to replace the 'key' routines + with code to pass error codes back to the application. +4) I wanted the option of meaningful error text strings. + +Late breaking news - the changes to support threads. + +Each 'thread' has an 'ERR_STATE' state associated with it. +ERR_STATE *ERR_get_state(void ) will return the 'state' for the calling +thread/process. + +ERR_remove_state(unsigned long pid); will 'free()' this state. If pid == 0 +the current 'thread/process' will have it's error state removed. +If you do not remove the error state of a thread, this could be considered a +form of memory leak, so just after 'reaping' a thread that has died, +call ERR_remove_state(pid). + +Have a read of thread.doc for more details for what is required for +multi-threading support. All the other error routines will +work correctly when using threads. + + +==== idea.doc ======================================================== + +The IDEA library. +IDEA is a block cipher that operates on 64bit (8 byte) quantities. It +uses a 128bit (16 byte) key. It can be used in all the modes that DES can +be used. This library implements the ecb, cbc, cfb64 and ofb64 modes. + +For all calls that have an 'input' and 'output' variables, they can be the +same. + +This library requires the inclusion of 'idea.h'. + +All of the encryption functions take what is called an IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE as an +argument. An IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE is an expanded form of the idea key. +For all modes of the IDEA algorithm, the IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE used for +decryption is different to the one used for encryption. + +The define IDEA_ENCRYPT is passed to specify encryption for the functions +that require an encryption/decryption flag. IDEA_DECRYPT is passed to +specify decryption. For some mode there is no encryption/decryption +flag since this is determined by the IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE. + +So to encrypt you would do the following +idea_set_encrypt_key(key,encrypt_ks); +idea_ecb_encrypt(...,encrypt_ks); +idea_cbc_encrypt(....,encrypt_ks,...,IDEA_ENCRYPT); + +To Decrypt +idea_set_encrypt_key(key,encrypt_ks); +idea_set_decrypt_key(encrypt_ks,decrypt_ks); +idea_ecb_encrypt(...,decrypt_ks); +idea_cbc_encrypt(....,decrypt_ks,...,IDEA_DECRYPT); + +Please note that any of the encryption modes specified in my DES library +could be used with IDEA. I have only implemented ecb, cbc, cfb64 and +ofb64 for the following reasons. +- ecb is the basic IDEA encryption. +- cbc is the normal 'chaining' form for block ciphers. +- cfb64 can be used to encrypt single characters, therefore input and output + do not need to be a multiple of 8. +- ofb64 is similar to cfb64 but is more like a stream cipher, not as + secure (not cipher feedback) but it does not have an encrypt/decrypt mode. +- If you want triple IDEA, thats 384 bits of key and you must be totally + obsessed with security. Still, if you want it, it is simple enough to + copy the function from the DES library and change the des_encrypt to + idea_encrypt; an exercise left for the paranoid reader :-). + +The functions are as follows: + +void idea_set_encrypt_key( +unsigned char *key; +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *ks); + idea_set_encrypt_key converts a 16 byte IDEA key into an + IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE. The IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE is an expanded form of + the key which can be used to perform IDEA encryption. + An IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE is an expanded form of the key which is used to + perform actual encryption. It can be regenerated from the IDEA key + so it only needs to be kept when encryption is about + to occur. Don't save or pass around IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE's since they + are CPU architecture dependent, IDEA keys are not. + +void idea_set_decrypt_key( +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *encrypt_ks, +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *decrypt_ks); + This functions converts an encryption IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE into a + decryption IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE. For all decryption, this conversion + of the key must be done. In some modes of IDEA, an + encryption/decryption flag is also required, this is because these + functions involve block chaining and the way this is done changes + depending on which of encryption of decryption is being done. + Please note that there is no quick way to generate the decryption + key schedule other than generating the encryption key schedule and + then converting it. + +void idea_encrypt( +unsigned long *data, +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *ks); + This is the IDEA encryption function that gets called by just about + every other IDEA routine in the library. You should not use this + function except to implement 'modes' of IDEA. I say this because the + functions that call this routine do the conversion from 'char *' to + long, and this needs to be done to make sure 'non-aligned' memory + access do not occur. + Data is a pointer to 2 unsigned long's and ks is the + IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE to use. Encryption or decryption depends on the + IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE. + +void idea_ecb_encrypt( +unsigned char *input, +unsigned char *output, +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *ks); + This is the basic Electronic Code Book form of IDEA (in DES this + mode is called Electronic Code Book so I'm going to use the term + for idea as well :-). + Input is encrypted into output using the key represented by + ks. Depending on the IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE, encryption or + decryption occurs. Input is 8 bytes long and output is 8 bytes. + +void idea_cbc_encrypt( +unsigned char *input, +unsigned char *output, +long length, +IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE *ks, +unsigned char *ivec, +int enc); + This routine implements IDEA in Cipher Block Chaining mode. + Input, which should be a multiple of 8 bytes is encrypted + (or decrypted) to output which will also be a multiple of 8 bytes. + The number of bytes is in length (and from what I've said above, + should be a multiple of 8). If length is not a multiple of 8, bad + things will probably happen. ivec is the initialisation vector. + This function updates iv after each call so that it can be passed to + the next call to idea_cbc_encrypt(). + +void idea_cfb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num, +int enc); + This is one of the more useful functions in this IDEA library, it + implements CFB mode of IDEA with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + Enc is used to indicate encryption or decryption. + One very important thing to remember is that when decrypting, use + the encryption form of the key. + CFB64 mode operates by using the cipher to + generate a stream of bytes which is used to encrypt the plain text. + The cipher text is then encrypted to generate the next 64 bits to + be xored (incrementally) with the next 64 bits of plain + text. As can be seen from this, to encrypt or decrypt, + the same 'cipher stream' needs to be generated but the way the next + block of data is gathered for encryption is different for + encryption and decryption. What this means is that to encrypt + idea_set_encrypt_key(key,ks); + idea_cfb64_encrypt(...,ks,..,IDEA_ENCRYPT) + do decrypt + idea_set_encrypt_key(key,ks) + idea_cfb64_encrypt(...,ks,...,IDEA_DECRYPT) + Note: The same IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE but different encryption flags. + For idea_cbc or idea_ecb, idea_set_decrypt_key() would need to be + used to generate the IDEA_KEY_SCHEDULE for decryption. + The reason I'm stressing this point is that I just wasted 3 hours + today trying to decrypt using this mode and the decryption form of + the key :-(. + +void idea_ofb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +des_key_schedule ks, +des_cblock *ivec, +int *num); + This functions implements OFB mode of IDEA with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + This is in effect a stream cipher, there is no encryption or + decryption mode. The same key and iv should be used to + encrypt and decrypt. + +For reading passwords, I suggest using des_read_pw_string() from my DES library. +To generate a password from a text string, I suggest using MD5 (or MD2) to +produce a 16 byte message digest that can then be passed directly to +idea_set_encrypt_key(). + +===== +For more information about the specific IDEA modes in this library +(ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb), read the section entitled 'Modes of DES' from the +documentation on my DES library.

What makes this hash +table different is that as the table fills, the hash table is +increased (or decreased) in size via realloc(). +When a 'resize' is done, instead of all hashes being redistributed over +twice as many 'buckets', one bucket is split. So when an 'expand' is done, +there is only a minimal cost to redistribute some values. Subsequent +inserts will cause more single 'bucket' redistributions but there will +never be a sudden large cost due to redistributing all the 'buckets'. + +The state for a particular hash table is kept in the LHASH structure. +The LHASH structure also records statistics about most aspects of accessing +the hash table. This is mostly a legacy of my writing this library for +the reasons of implementing what looked like a nice algorithm rather than +for a particular software product. + +Internal stuff you probably don't want to know about. +The decision to increase or decrease the hash table size is made depending +on the 'load' of the hash table. The load is the number of items in the +hash table divided by the size of the hash table. The default values are +as follows. If (hash->up_load < load) => expand. +if (hash->down_load > load) => contract. The 'up_load' has a default value of +1 and 'down_load' has a default value of 2. These numbers can be modified +by the application by just playing with the 'up_load' and 'down_load' +variables. The 'load' is kept in a form which is multiplied by 256. So +hash->up_load=8*256; will cause a load of 8 to be set. + +If you are interested in performance the field to watch is +num_comp_calls. The hash library keeps track of the 'hash' value for +each item so when a lookup is done, the 'hashes' are compared, if +there is a match, then a full compare is done, and +hash->num_comp_calls is incremented. If num_comp_calls is not equal +to num_delete plus num_retrieve it means that your hash function is +generating hashes that are the same for different values. It is +probably worth changing your hash function if this is the case because +even if your hash table has 10 items in a 'bucked', it can be searched +with 10 'unsigned long' compares and 10 linked list traverses. This +will be much less expensive that 10 calls to you compare function. + +LHASH *lh_new( +unsigned long (*hash)(), +int (*cmp)()); + This function is used to create a new LHASH structure. It is passed + function pointers that are used to store and retrieve values passed + into the hash table. The 'hash' + function is a hashing function that will return a hashed value of + it's passed structure. 'cmp' is passed 2 parameters, it returns 0 + is they are equal, otherwise, non zero. + If there are any problems (usually malloc failures), NULL is + returned, otherwise a new LHASH structure is returned. The + hash value is normally truncated to a power of 2, so make sure + that your hash function returns well mixed low order bits. + +void lh_free( +LHASH *lh); + This function free()s a LHASH structure. If there is malloced + data in the hash table, it will not be freed. Consider using the + lh_doall function to deallocate any remaining entries in the hash + table. + +char *lh_insert( +LHASH *lh, +char *data); + This function inserts the data pointed to by data into the lh hash + table. If there is already and entry in the hash table entry, the + value being replaced is returned. A NULL is returned if the new + entry does not clash with an entry already in the table (the normal + case) or on a malloc() failure (perhaps I should change this....). + The 'char *data' is exactly what is passed to the hash and + comparison functions specified in lh_new(). + +char *lh_delete( +LHASH *lh, +char *data); + This routine deletes an entry from the hash table. The value being + deleted is returned. NULL is returned if there is no such value in + the hash table. + +char *lh_retrieve( +LHASH *lh, +char *data); + If 'data' is in the hash table it is returned, else NULL is + returned. The way these routines would normally be uses is that a + dummy structure would have key fields populated and then + ret=lh_retrieve(hash,&dummy);. Ret would now be a pointer to a fully + populated structure. + +void lh_doall( +LHASH *lh, +void (*func)(char *a)); + This function will, for every entry in the hash table, call function + 'func' with the data item as parameters. + This function can be quite useful when used as follows. + void cleanup(STUFF *a) + { STUFF_free(a); } + lh_doall(hash,cleanup); + lh_free(hash); + This can be used to free all the entries, lh_free() then + cleans up the 'buckets' that point to nothing. Be careful + when doing this. If you delete entries from the hash table, + in the call back function, the table may decrease in size, + moving item that you are + currently on down lower in the hash table. This could cause + some entries to be skipped. The best solution to this problem + is to set lh->down_load=0 before you start. This will stop + the hash table ever being decreased in size. + +void lh_doall_arg( +LHASH *lh; +void(*func)(char *a,char *arg)); +char *arg; + This function is the same as lh_doall except that the function + called will be passed 'arg' as the second argument. + +unsigned long lh_strhash( +char *c); + This function is a demo string hashing function. Since the LHASH + routines would normally be passed structures, this routine would + not normally be passed to lh_new(), rather it would be used in the + function passed to lh_new(). + +The next three routines print out various statistics about the state of the +passed hash table. These numbers are all kept in the lhash structure. + +void lh_stats( +LHASH *lh, +FILE *out); + This function prints out statistics on the size of the hash table, + how many entries are in it, and the number and result of calls to + the routines in this library. + +void lh_node_stats( +LHASH *lh, +FILE *out); + For each 'bucket' in the hash table, the number of entries is + printed. + +void lh_node_usage_stats( +LHASH *lh, +FILE *out); + This function prints out a short summary of the state of the hash + table. It prints what I call the 'load' and the 'actual load'. + The load is the average number of data items per 'bucket' in the + hash table. The 'actual load' is the average number of items per + 'bucket', but only for buckets which contain entries. So the + 'actual load' is the average number of searches that will need to + find an item in the hash table, while the 'load' is the average number + that will be done to record a miss. + +==== md2.doc ======================================================== + +The MD2 library. +MD2 is a message digest algorithm that can be used to condense an arbitrary +length message down to a 16 byte hash.

IA, FG Telematik +Content-Length: 14575 +Status: RO +X-Status: + +Loading client certs into MSIE 3.01 +=================================== + +This document contains all the information necessary to successfully set up +some scripts to issue client certs to Microsoft Internet Explorer. It +includes the required knowledge about the model MSIE uses for client +certification and includes complete sample scripts ready to play with. The +scripts were tested against a modified ca program of SSLeay 0.6.6 and should +work with the regular ca program that comes with version 0.8.0. I haven't +tested against MSIE 4.0 + +You can use the information contained in this document in either way you +want. However if you feel it saved you a lot of time I ask you to be as fair +as to mention my name: Holger Reif <reif@prakinf.tu-ilmenau.de>. + +1.) The model used by MSIE +-------------------------- + +The Internet Explorer doesn't come with a embedded engine for installing +client certs like Netscape's Navigator. It rather uses the CryptoAPI (CAPI) +defined by Microsoft. CAPI comes with WindowsNT 4.0 or is installed together +with Internet Explorer since 3.01. The advantage of this approach is a higher +flexibility because the certificates in the (per user) system open +certificate store may be used by other applications as well. The drawback +however is that you need to do a bit more work to get a client cert issued. + +CAPI defines functions which will handle basic cryptographic work, eg. +generating keys, encrypting some data, signing text or building a certificate +request. The procedure is as follows: A CAPI function generates you a key +pair and saves it into the certificate store. After that one builds a +Distinguished Name. Together with that key pair another CAPI function forms a +PKCS#10 request which you somehow need to submit to a CA. Finally the issued +cert is given to a yet another CAPI function which saves it into the +certificate store. + +The certificate store with the user's keys and certs is in the registry. You +will find it under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Cryptography/ (I +leave it to you as a little exercise to figure out what all the entries mean +;-). Note that the keys are protected only with the user's usual Windows +login password. + +2.) The practical usage +----------------------- + +Unfortunatly since CAPI is a system API you can't access its functions from +HTML code directly. For this purpose Microsoft provides a wrapper called +certenr3.dll. This DLL accesses the CAPI functions and provides an interface +usable from Visual Basic Script. One needs to install that library on the +computer which wants to have client cert. The easiest way is to load it as an +ActiveX control (certenr3.dll is properly authenticode signed by MS ;-). If +you have ever enrolled e cert request at a CA you will have installed it. + +At time of writing certenr3.dll is contained in +http://www.microsoft.com/workshop/prog/security/csa/certenr3.exe. It comes +with an README file which explains the available functions. It is labeled +beta but every CA seems to use it anyway. The license.txt allows you the +usage for your own purposes (as far as I understood) and a somehow limited +distribution. + +The two functions of main interest are GenerateKeyPair and AcceptCredentials. +For complete explanation of all possible parameters see the README file. Here +are only minimal required parameters and their values. + +GenerateKeyPair(sessionID, FASLE, szName, 0, "ClientAuth", TRUE, FALSE, 1) +- sessionID is a (locally to that computer) unique string to correlate the +generated key pair with a cert installed later. +- szName is the DN of the form "C=DE; S=Thueringen; L=Ilmenau; CN=Holger +Reif; 1.2.840.113549.1.9.1=reif@prakinf.tu-ilmenau.de". Note that S is the +abreviation for StateOrProvince. The recognized abreviation include CN, O, C, +OU, G, I, L, S, T. If the abreviation is unknown (eg. for PKCS#9 email addr) +you need to use the full object identifier. The starting point for searching +them could be crypto/objects.h since all OIDs know to SSLeay are listed +there. +- note: the possible ninth parameter which should give a default name to the +certificate storage location doesn't seem to work. Changes to the constant +values in the call above doesn't seem to make sense. You can't generate +PKCS#10 extensions with that function. + +The result of GenerateKeyPair is the base64 encoded PKCS#10 request. However +it has a little strange format that SSLeay doesn't accept. (BTW I feel the +decision of rejecting that format as standard conforming.) It looks like +follows: + 1st line with 76 chars + 2nd line with 76 chars + ... + (n-2)th line with 76 chars + (n-1)th line contains a multiple of 4 chars less then 76 (possible +empty) + (n)th line has zero or 4 chars (then with 1 or 2 equal signs - the + original text's lenght wasn'T a multiple of 3) + The line separator has two chars: 0x0d 0x0a + +AcceptCredentials(sessionID, credentials, 0, FALSE) +- sessionID needs to be the same as while generating the key pair +- credentials is the base64 encoded PKCS#7 object containing the cert. + +CRL's and CA certs are not required simply just the client cert. (It seems to +me that both are not even checked somehow.) The only format of the base64 +encoded object I succesfully used was all characters in a very long string +without line feeds or carriage returns. (Hey, it doesn't matter, only a +computer reads it!) + +The result should be S_OK. For error handling see the example that comes with +certenr3.dll. + +A note about ASN.1 character encodings. certenr3.dll seems to know only about +2 of them: UniversalString and PrintableString. First it is definitely wrong +for an email address which is IA5STRING (checked by ssleay's ca). Second +unfortunately MSIE (at least until version 3.02) can't handle UniversalString +correctly - they just blow up you cert store! Therefore ssleay's ca (starting +from version 0.8.0) tries to convert the encodings automatically to IA5STRING +or TeletexString. The beef is it will work only for the latin-1 (western) +charset. Microsoft still has to do abit of homework... + +3.) An example +-------------- + +At least you need two steps: generating the key & request and then installing +the certificate. A real world CA would have some more steps involved, eg. +accepting some license. Note that both scripts shown below are just +experimental state without any warrenty! + +First how to generate a request. Note that we can't use a static page because +of the sessionID. I generate it from system time plus pid and hope it is +unique enough. Your are free to feed it through md5 to get more impressive +ID's ;-) Then the intended text is read in with sed which inserts the +sessionID. + +-----BEGIN ms-enroll.cgi----- +#!/bin/sh +SESSION_ID=`date '+%y%m%d%H%M%S'`$$ +echo Content-type: text/html +echo +sed s/template_for_sessId/$SESSION_ID/ <<EOF +<HTML><HEAD> +<TITLE>Certificate Enrollment Test Page</TITLE> +</HEAD><BODY> + +<OBJECT + classid="clsid:33BEC9E0-F78F-11cf-B782-00C04FD7BF43" + codebase=certenr3.dll + id=certHelper + > +</OBJECT> + +<CENTER> +<H2>enrollment for a personal cert</H2> +<BR><HR WIDTH=50%><BR><P> +<FORM NAME="MSIE_Enrollment" ACTION="ms-gencert.cgi" ENCTYPE=x-www-form- +encoded METHOD=POST> +<TABLE> + <TR><TD>Country</TD><TD><INPUT NAME="Country" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>State</TD><TD><INPUT NAME="StateOrProvince" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>Location</TD><TD><INPUT NAME="Location" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>Organization</TD><TD><INPUT NAME="Organization" +VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>Organizational Unit</TD> + <TD><INPUT NAME="OrganizationalUnit" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>Name</TD><TD><INPUT NAME="CommonName" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD>eMail Address</TD> + <TD><INPUT NAME="EmailAddress" VALUE=""></TD></TR> + <TR><TD></TD> + <TD><INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" NAME="submit" VALUE="Beantragen"></TD></TR> +</TABLE> + <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="SessionId" VALUE="template_for_sessId"> + <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Request" VALUE=""> +</FORM> +<BR><HR WIDTH=50%><BR><P> +</CENTER> + +<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBS> + Dim DN + + Sub Submit_OnClick + Dim TheForm + Set TheForm = Document.MSIE_Enrollment + sessionId = TheForm.SessionId.value + reqHardware = FALSE + C = TheForm.Country.value + SP = TheForm.StateOrProvince.value + L = TheForm.Location.value + O = TheForm.Organization.value + OU = TheForm.OrganizationalUnit.value + CN = TheForm.CommonName.value + Email = TheForm.EmailAddress.value + szPurpose = "ClientAuth" + doAcceptanceUINow = FALSE + doOnline = TRUE + + DN = "" + + Call Add_RDN("C", C) + Call Add_RDN("S", SP) + Call Add_RDN("L", L) + Call Add_RDN("O", O) + Call Add_RDN("OU", OU) + Call Add_RDN("CN", CN) + Call Add_RDN("1.2.840.113549.1.9.1", Email) + ' rsadsi + ' pkcs + ' pkcs9 + ' eMailAddress + On Error Resume Next + sz10 = certHelper.GenerateKeyPair(sessionId, _ + FALSE, DN, 0, ClientAuth, FASLE, TRUE, 1)_ + theError = Err.Number + On Error Goto 0 + if (sz10 = Empty OR theError <> 0) Then + sz = "The error '" & Hex(theError) & "' occurred." & chr(13) & _ + chr(10) & "Your credentials could not be generated." + result = MsgBox(sz, 0, "Credentials Enrollment") + Exit Sub + else + TheForm.Request.value = sz10 + TheForm.Submit + end if + End Sub + + Sub Add_RDN(sn, value) + if (value <> "") then + if (DN <> "") then + DN = DN & "; " + end if + DN = DN & sn & "=" & value + end if + End Sub +</SCRIPT> +</BODY> +</HTML> +EOF +-----END ms-enroll.cgi----- + +Second, how to extract the request and feed the certificate back?

Before describing how this is done, it's +important to understand a little about how the browser implements its +client certificate support. This is documented in some detail in the +URLs based at <URL:http://home.netscape.com/eng/security/certs.html>. +Here's a brief overview: + +- The Navigator supports a new HTML tag "KEYGEN" which will cause + the browser to generate an RSA key pair when you submit a form + containing the tag. The public key, along with an optional + challenge (supposedly provided for use in certificate revocation + but I don't use it) is signed, DER-encoded, base-64 encoded + and sent to the web server as the value of the variable + whose NAME is provided in the KEYGEN tag. The private key is + stored by the browser in a local key database. + + This "Signed Public Key And Challenge" (SPKAC) arrives formatted + into 64 character lines (which are of course URL-encoded when + sent via HTTP -- i.e. spaces, newlines and most punctuatation are + encoded as "%HH" where HH is the hex equivalent of the ASCII code). + Note that the SPKAC does not contain the other usual attributes + of a certificate request, especially the subject name fields. + These must be otherwise encoded in the form for submission along + with the SPKAC. + +- Either immediately (in response to this form submission), or at + some later date (a real CA will probably verify your identity in + some way before issuing the certificate), a web server can send a + certificate based on the public key and other attributes back to + the browser by encoding it in DER (the binary form) and sending it + to the browser as MIME type: + "Content-type: application/x-x509-user-cert" + + The browser uses the public key encoded in the certificate to + associate the certificate with the appropriate private key in + its local key database. Now, the certificate is "installed". + +- When a server wants to require authentication based on client + certificates, it uses the right signals via the SSL protocol to + trigger the Navigator to ask you which certificate you want to + send. Whether the certificate is accepted is dependent on CA + certificates and so forth installed in the server and is beyond + the scope of this document. + + +Now, here's how the SSLeay package can be used to provide client +certficates: + +- You prepare a file for input to the SSLeay ca application. + The file contains a number of "name = value" pairs that identify + the subject. The names here are the same subject name component + identifiers used in the CA section of the lib/ssleay.conf file, + such as "emailAddress", "commonName" "organizationName" and so + forth. Both the long version and the short version (e.g. "Email", + "CN", "O") can be used. + + One more name is supported: this one is "SPKAC". Its value + is simply the value of the base-64 encoded SPKAC sent by the + browser (with all the newlines and other space charaters + removed -- and newline escapes are NOT supported). + + [ As of SSLeay 0.6.4, multiple lines are supported. + Put a \ at the end of each line and it will be joined with the + previous line with the '\n' removed - eay ] + + Here's a sample input file: + +C = US +SP = Georgia +O = Some Organization, Inc. +OU = Netscape Compatibility Group +CN = John X.

For example, if the file were named /tmp/cert.req, + you'd run: + $SSLDIR/bin/ca -spkac /tmp/cert.req -out /tmp/cert + + The output is in DER format (binary) if a -out argument is + provided, as above; otherwise, it's in the PEM format (base-64 + encoded DER). Also, the "-batch" switch is implied by the + "-spkac" so you don't get asked whether to complete the signing + (probably it shouldn't work this way but I was only interested + in hacking together an online CA that could be used for issuing + test certificates). + + The "-spkac" capability doesn't support multiple files (I think). + + Any CHALLENGE provided in the SPKAC is simply ignored. + + The interactions between the identification fields you provide + and those identified in your lib/ssleay.conf are the same as if + you did an ordinary "ca -in infile -out outfile" -- that is, if + something is marked as required in the ssleay.conf file and it + isn't found in the -spkac file, the certificate won't be issued. + +- Now, you pick up the output from /tmp/cert and pass it back to + the Navigator prepending the Content-type string described earlier. + +- In order to run the ca command out of a CGI program, you must + provide a password to decrypt the CA's private key. You can + do this by using "echo MyKeyPassword | $SSLDIR/bin/ca ..." + I think there's a way to not encrypt the key file in the first + place, but I didn't see how to do that, so I made a small change + to the library that allows the password to be accepted from a pipe. + Either way is UTTERLY INSECURE and a real CA would never do that. + + [ You can use the 'ssleay rsa' command to remove the password + from the private key, or you can use the '-key' option to the + ca command to specify the decryption key on the command line + or use the -nodes option when generating the key. + ca will try to clear the command line version of the password + but for quite a few operating systems, this is not possible. + - eric ] + +So, what do you have to do to make use of this stuff to create an online +demo CA capability with SSLeay? + +1 Create an HTML form for your users.

The CGI program must URL-decode the variables and create + the file described above, containing subject identification info + as well as the SPKAC block. It should then run the the ca program + with the -spkac option. If it works (check the exit status), + return the new certificate with the appropriate MIME type. If not, + return the output of the ca command with MIME type "text/plain". + +3 Set up your web server to accept connections signed by your demo + CA. This probably involves obtaining the PEM-encoded CA certificate + (ordinarily in $SSLDIR/CA/cacert.pem) and installing it into a + server database. See your server manual for instructions. + + +==== obj.doc ======================================================== + +The Object library. + +As part of my Crypto library, I found I required a method of identifying various +objects. These objects normally had 3 different values associated with +them, a short text name, a long (or lower case) text name, and an +ASN.1 Object Identifier (which is a sequence of numbers). +This library contains a static list of objects and functions to lookup +according to one type and to return the other types. + +To use these routines, 'Object.h' needs to be included. + +For each supported object, #define entries are defined as follows +#define SN_Algorithm "Algorithm" +#define LN_algorithm "algorithm" +#define NID_algorithm 38 +#define OBJ_algorithm 1L,3L,14L,3L,2L + +SN_ stands for short name. +LN_ stands for either long name or lowercase name. +NID_ stands for Numeric ID. I each object has a unique NID and this + should be used internally to identify objects. +OBJ_ stands for ASN.1 Object Identifier or ASN1_OBJECT as defined in the + ASN1 routines. These values are used in ASN1 encoding. + +The following functions are to be used to return pointers into a static +definition of these types. What this means is "don't try to free() any +pointers returned from these functions. + +ASN1_OBJECT *OBJ_nid2obj( +int n); + Return the ASN1_OBJECT that corresponds to a NID of n. + +char *OBJ_nid2ln( +int n); + Return the long/lower case name of the object represented by the + NID of n. + +char *OBJ_nid2sn( +int n); + Return the short name for the object represented by the NID of n. + +ASN1_OBJECT *OBJ_dup( +ASN1_OBJECT *o); + Duplicate and return a new ASN1_OBJECT that is the same as the + passed parameter. + +int OBJ_obj2nid( +ASN1_OBJECT *o); + Given ASN1_OBJECT o, return the NID that corresponds. + +int OBJ_ln2nid( +char *s); + Given the long/lower case name 's', return the NID of the object. + +int OBJ_sn2nid( +char *s); + Given the short name 's', return the NID of the object. + +char *OBJ_bsearch( +char *key, +char *base, +int num, +int size, +int (*cmp)()); + Since I have come across a few platforms that do not have the + bsearch() function, OBJ_bsearch is my version of that function. + Feel free to use this function, but you may as well just use the + normal system bsearch(3) if it is present.

The RNG make no +effort to reproduce the same random number stream with each execution. +Various other routines in the SSLeay library 'seed' the RNG when suitable +'random' input data is available. Read the section at the end for details +on the design of the RNG. + +void RAND_bytes( +unsigned char *buf, +int num); + This routine puts 'num' random bytes into 'buf'. One should make + sure RAND_seed() has been called before using this routine. + +void RAND_seed( +unsigned char *buf, +int num); + This routine adds more 'seed' data the RNG state. 'num' bytes + are added to the RNG state, they are taken from 'buf'. This + routine can be called with sensitive data such as user entered + passwords. This sensitive data is in no way recoverable from + the RAND library routines or state. Try to pass as much data + from 'random' sources as possible into the RNG via this function. + Also strongly consider using the RAND_load_file() and + RAND_write_file() routines. + +void RAND_cleanup(); + When a program has finished with the RAND library, if it so + desires, it can 'zero' all RNG state. + +The following 3 routines are convenience routines that can be used to +'save' and 'restore' data from/to the RNG and it's state. +Since the more 'random' data that is feed as seed data the better, why not +keep it around between executions of the program? Of course the +application should pass more 'random' data in via RAND_seed() and +make sure no-one can read the 'random' data file. + +char *RAND_file_name( +char *buf, +int size); + This routine returns a 'default' name for the location of a 'rand' + file. The 'rand' file should keep a sequence of random bytes used + to initialise the RNG. The filename is put in 'buf'. Buf is 'size' + bytes long. Buf is returned if things go well, if they do not, + NULL is returned. The 'rand' file name is generated in the + following way. First, if there is a 'RANDFILE' environment + variable, it is returned. Second, if there is a 'HOME' environment + variable, $HOME/.rand is returned. Third, NULL is returned. NULL + is also returned if a buf would overflow. + +int RAND_load_file( +char *file, +long number); + This function 'adds' the 'file' into the RNG state. It does this by + doing a RAND_seed() on the value returned from a stat() system call + on the file and if 'number' is non-zero, upto 'number' bytes read + from the file. The number of bytes passed to RAND_seed() is returned. + +int RAND_write_file( +char *file), + RAND_write_file() writes N random bytes to the file 'file', where + N is the size of the internal RND state (currently 1k). + This is a suitable method of saving RNG state for reloading via + RAND_load_file(). + +What follows is a description of this RNG and a description of the rational +behind it's design. + +It should be noted that this RNG is intended to be used to generate +'random' keys for various ciphers including generation of DH and RSA keys. + +It should also be noted that I have just created a system that I am happy with. +It may be overkill but that does not worry me. I have not spent that much +time on this algorithm so if there are glaring errors, please let me know. +Speed has not been a consideration in the design of these routines. + +First up I will state the things I believe I need for a good RNG. +1) A good hashing algorithm to mix things up and to convert the RNG 'state' + to random numbers. +2) An initial source of random 'state'. +3) The state should be very large. If the RNG is being used to generate + 4096 bit RSA keys, 2 2048 bit random strings are required (at a minimum). + If your RNG state only has 128 bits, you are obviously limiting the + search space to 128 bits, not 2048. I'm probably getting a little + carried away on this last point but it does indicate that it may not be + a bad idea to keep quite a lot of RNG state. It should be easier to + break a cipher than guess the RNG seed data. +4) Any RNG seed data should influence all subsequent random numbers + generated. This implies that any random seed data entered will have + an influence on all subsequent random numbers generated. +5) When using data to seed the RNG state, the data used should not be + extractable from the RNG state. I believe this should be a + requirement because one possible source of 'secret' semi random + data would be a private key or a password. This data must + not be disclosed by either subsequent random numbers or a + 'core' dump left by a program crash. +6) Given the same initial 'state', 2 systems should deviate in their RNG state + (and hence the random numbers generated) over time if at all possible. +7) Given the random number output stream, it should not be possible to determine + the RNG state or the next random number. + + +The algorithm is as follows. + +There is global state made up of a 1023 byte buffer (the 'state'), a +working message digest ('md') and a counter ('count'). + +Whenever seed data is added, it is inserted into the 'state' as +follows. + The input is chopped up into units of 16 bytes (or less for + the last block). Each of these blocks is run through the MD5 + message digest. The data passed to the MD5 digest is the + current 'md', the same number of bytes from the 'state' + (the location determined by in incremented looping index) as + the current 'block' and the new key data 'block'. The result + of this is kept in 'md' and also xored into the 'state' at the + same locations that were used as input into the MD5. + I believe this system addresses points 1 (MD5), 3 (the 'state'), + 4 (via the 'md'), 5 (by the use of MD5 and xor). + +When bytes are extracted from the RNG, the following process is used. +For each group of 8 bytes (or less), we do the following, + Input into MD5, the top 8 bytes from 'md', the byte that are + to be overwritten by the random bytes and bytes from the + 'state' (incrementing looping index). From this digest output + (which is kept in 'md'), the top (upto) 8 bytes are + returned to the caller and the bottom (upto) 8 bytes are xored + into the 'state'. + Finally, after we have finished 'generation' random bytes for the + called, 'count' (which is incremented) and 'md' are fed into MD5 and + the results are kept in 'md'. + I believe the above addressed points 1 (use of MD5), 6 (by + hashing into the 'state' the 'old' data from the caller that + is about to be overwritten) and 7 (by not using the 8 bytes + given to the caller to update the 'state', but they are used + to update 'md'). + +So of the points raised, only 2 is not addressed, but sources of +random data will always be a problem. + + +==== rc2.doc ======================================================== + +The RC2 library. + +RC2 is a block cipher that operates on 64bit (8 byte) quantities. It +uses variable size key, but 128bit (16 byte) key would normally be considered +good. It can be used in all the modes that DES can be used. This +library implements the ecb, cbc, cfb64, ofb64 modes. + +I have implemented this library from an article posted to sci.crypt on +11-Feb-1996. I personally don't know how far to trust the RC2 cipher. +While it is capable of having a key of any size, not much reseach has +publically been done on it at this point in time (Apr-1996) +since the cipher has only been public for a few months :-) +It is of a similar speed to DES and IDEA, so unless it is required for +meeting some standard (SSLv2, perhaps S/MIME), it would probably be advisable +to stick to IDEA, or for the paranoid, Tripple DES. + +Mind you, having said all that, I should mention that I just read alot and +implement ciphers, I'm a 'babe in the woods' when it comes to evaluating +ciphers :-). + +For all calls that have an 'input' and 'output' variables, they can be the +same. + +This library requires the inclusion of 'rc2.h'. + +All of the encryption functions take what is called an RC2_KEY as an +argument. An RC2_KEY is an expanded form of the RC2 key. +For all modes of the RC2 algorithm, the RC2_KEY used for +decryption is the same one that was used for encryption. + +The define RC2_ENCRYPT is passed to specify encryption for the functions +that require an encryption/decryption flag. RC2_DECRYPT is passed to +specify decryption. + +Please note that any of the encryption modes specified in my DES library +could be used with RC2. I have only implemented ecb, cbc, cfb64 and +ofb64 for the following reasons. +- ecb is the basic RC2 encryption. +- cbc is the normal 'chaining' form for block ciphers. +- cfb64 can be used to encrypt single characters, therefore input and output + do not need to be a multiple of 8. +- ofb64 is similar to cfb64 but is more like a stream cipher, not as + secure (not cipher feedback) but it does not have an encrypt/decrypt mode. +- If you want triple RC2, thats 384 bits of key and you must be totally + obsessed with security. Still, if you want it, it is simple enough to + copy the function from the DES library and change the des_encrypt to + RC2_encrypt; an exercise left for the paranoid reader :-). + +The functions are as follows: + +void RC2_set_key( +RC2_KEY *ks; +int len; +unsigned char *key; +int bits; + RC2_set_key converts an 'len' byte key into a RC2_KEY. + A 'ks' is an expanded form of the 'key' which is used to + perform actual encryption. It can be regenerated from the RC2 key + so it only needs to be kept when encryption or decryption is about + to occur. Don't save or pass around RC2_KEY's since they + are CPU architecture dependent, 'key's are not. RC2 is an + interesting cipher in that it can be used with a variable length + key. 'len' is the length of 'key' to be used as the key. + A 'len' of 16 is recomended. The 'bits' argument is an + interesting addition which I only found out about in Aug 96. + BSAFE uses this parameter to 'limit' the number of bits used + for the key. To use the 'key' unmodified, set bits to 1024. + This is what old versions of my RC2 library did (SSLeay 0.6.3). + RSAs BSAFE library sets this parameter to be 128 if 128 bit + keys are being used. So to be compatable with BSAFE, set it + to 128, if you don't want to reduce RC2's key length, leave it + at 1024. + +void RC2_encrypt( +unsigned long *data, +RC2_KEY *key, +int encrypt); + This is the RC2 encryption function that gets called by just about + every other RC2 routine in the library. You should not use this + function except to implement 'modes' of RC2. I say this because the + functions that call this routine do the conversion from 'char *' to + long, and this needs to be done to make sure 'non-aligned' memory + access do not occur. + Data is a pointer to 2 unsigned long's and key is the + RC2_KEY to use. Encryption or decryption is indicated by 'encrypt'. + which can have the values RC2_ENCRYPT or RC2_DECRYPT. + +void RC2_ecb_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +RC2_KEY *key, +int encrypt); + This is the basic Electronic Code Book form of RC2 (in DES this + mode is called Electronic Code Book so I'm going to use the term + for rc2 as well. + Input is encrypted into output using the key represented by + key. Depending on the encrypt, encryption or + decryption occurs. Input is 8 bytes long and output is 8 bytes. + +void RC2_cbc_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +RC2_KEY *ks, +unsigned char *ivec, +int encrypt); + This routine implements RC2 in Cipher Block Chaining mode. + Input, which should be a multiple of 8 bytes is encrypted + (or decrypted) to output which will also be a multiple of 8 bytes. + The number of bytes is in length (and from what I've said above, + should be a multiple of 8). If length is not a multiple of 8, bad + things will probably happen. ivec is the initialisation vector. + This function updates iv after each call so that it can be passed to + the next call to RC2_cbc_encrypt(). + +void RC2_cfb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +RC2_KEY *schedule, +unsigned char *ivec, +int *num, +int encrypt); + This is one of the more useful functions in this RC2 library, it + implements CFB mode of RC2 with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + 'Encrypt' is used to indicate encryption or decryption. + CFB64 mode operates by using the cipher to generate a stream + of bytes which is used to encrypt the plain text. + The cipher text is then encrypted to generate the next 64 bits to + be xored (incrementally) with the next 64 bits of plain + text. As can be seen from this, to encrypt or decrypt, + the same 'cipher stream' needs to be generated but the way the next + block of data is gathered for encryption is different for + encryption and decryption. + +void RC2_ofb64_encrypt( +unsigned char *in, +unsigned char *out, +long length, +RC2_KEY *schedule, +unsigned char *ivec, +int *num); + This functions implements OFB mode of RC2 with 64bit feedback. + This allows you to encrypt an arbitrary number of bytes, + you do not require 8 byte padding. Each call to this + routine will encrypt the input bytes to output and then update ivec + and num. Num contains 'how far' we are though ivec. + This is in effect a stream cipher, there is no encryption or + decryption mode. + +For reading passwords, I suggest using des_read_pw_string() from my DES library. +To generate a password from a text string, I suggest using MD5 (or MD2) to +produce a 16 byte message digest that can then be passed directly to +RC2_set_key(). + +===== +For more information about the specific RC2 modes in this library +(ecb, cbc, cfb and ofb), read the section entitled 'Modes of DES' from the +documentation on my DES library. What is said about DES is directly +applicable for RC2. + + +==== rc4.doc ======================================================== + +The RC4 library. +RC4 is a stream cipher that operates on a byte stream. It can be used with +any length key but I would recommend normally using 16 bytes. + +This library requires the inclusion of 'rc4.h'. + +The RC4 encryption function takes what is called an RC4_KEY as an argument. +The RC4_KEY is generated by the RC4_set_key function from the key bytes. + +RC4, being a stream cipher, does not have an encryption or decryption mode. +It produces a stream of bytes that the input stream is xor'ed against and +so decryption is just a case of 'encrypting' again with the same key. + +I have only put in one 'mode' for RC4 which is the normal one. This means +there is no initialisation vector and there is no feedback of the cipher +text into the cipher. This implies that you should not ever use the +same key twice if you can help it. If you do, you leave yourself open to +known plain text attacks; if you know the plain text and +corresponding cipher text in one message, all messages that used the same +key can have the cipher text decoded for the corresponding positions in the +cipher stream. + +The main positive feature of RC4 is that it is a very fast cipher; about 4 +times faster that DES. This makes it ideally suited to protocols where the +key is randomly chosen, like SSL. + +The functions are as follows: + +void RC4_set_key( +RC4_KEY *key; +int len; +unsigned char *data); + This function initialises the RC4_KEY structure with the key passed + in 'data', which is 'len' bytes long. The key data can be any + length but 16 bytes seems to be a good number. + +void RC4( +RC4_KEY *key; +unsigned long len; +unsigned char *in; +unsigned char *out); + Do the actual RC4 encryption/decryption. Using the 'key', 'len' + bytes are transformed from 'in' to 'out'. As mentioned above, + decryption is the operation as encryption. + +==== ref.doc ======================================================== + +I have lots more references etc, and will update this list in the future, +30 Aug 1996 - eay + + +SSL The SSL Protocol - from Netscapes. + +RC4 Newsgroups: sci.crypt + From: sterndark@netcom.com (David Sterndark) + Subject: RC4 Algorithm revealed. + Message-ID: <sternCvKL4B.Hyy@netcom.com> + +RC2 Newsgroups: sci.crypt + From: pgut01@cs.auckland.ac.nz (Peter Gutmann) + Subject: Specification for Ron Rivests Cipher No.2 + Message-ID: <4fk39f$f70@net.auckland.ac.nz> + +MD2 RFC1319 The MD2 Message-Digest Algorithm +MD5 RFC1321 The MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm + +X509 Certificates + RFC1421 Privacy Enhancement for Internet Electronic Mail: Part I + RFC1422 Privacy Enhancement for Internet Electronic Mail: Part II + RFC1423 Privacy Enhancement for Internet Electronic Mail: Part III + RFC1424 Privacy Enhancement for Internet Electronic Mail: Part IV + +RSA and various standard encoding + PKCS#1 RSA Encryption Standard + PKCS#5 Password-Based Encryption Standard + PKCS#7 Cryptographic Message Syntax Standard + A Layman's Guide to a Subset of ASN.1, BER, and DER + An Overview of the PKCS Standards + Some Examples of the PKCS Standards + +IDEA Chapter 3 The Block Cipher IDEA + +RSA, prime number generation and bignum algorithms + Introduction To Algorithms, + Thomas Cormen, Charles Leiserson, Ronald Rivest, + Section 29 Arithmetic Circuits + Section 33 Number-Theoretic Algorithms + +Fast Private Key algorithm + Fast Decipherment Algorithm for RSA Public-Key Cryptosystem + J.-J.

When errors are returned, read +about the ERR library for how to access the error codes. + +All RSA encryption is done according to the PKCS-1 standard which is +compatible with PEM and RSAref. This means that any values being encrypted +must be less than the size of the modulus in bytes, minus 10, bytes long. + +This library uses RAND_bytes()() for it's random data, make sure to feed +RAND_seed() with lots of interesting and varied data before using these +routines. + +The RSA library has one specific data type, the RSA structure. +It is composed of 8 BIGNUM variables (see the BN library for details) and +can hold either a private RSA key or a public RSA key. +Some RSA libraries have different structures for public and private keys, I +don't. For my libraries, a public key is determined by the fact that the +RSA->d value is NULL. These routines will operate on any size RSA keys. +While I'm sure 4096 bit keys are very very secure, they take a lot longer +to process that 1024 bit keys :-). + +The function in the RSA library are as follows. + +RSA *RSA_new(); + This function creates a new RSA object. The sub-fields of the RSA + type are also malloced so you should always use this routine to + create RSA variables. + +void RSA_free( +RSA *rsa); + This function 'frees' an RSA structure. This routine should always + be used to free the RSA structure since it will also 'free' any + sub-fields of the RSA type that need freeing. + +int RSA_size( +RSA *rsa); + This function returns the size of the RSA modulus in bytes. Why do + I need this you may ask, well the reason is that when you encrypt + with RSA, the output string will be the size of the RSA modulus. + So the output for the RSA_encrypt and the input for the RSA_decrypt + routines need to be RSA_size() bytes long, because this is how many + bytes are expected. + +For the following 4 RSA encryption routines, it should be noted that +RSA_private_decrypt() should be used on the output from +RSA_public_encrypt() and RSA_public_decrypt() should be used on +the output from RSA_private_encrypt(). + +int RSA_public_encrypt( +int from_len; +unsigned char *from +unsigned char *to +RSA *rsa); + This function implements RSA public encryption, the rsa variable + should be a public key (but can be a private key). 'from_len' + bytes taken from 'from' and encrypted and put into 'to'. 'to' needs + to be at least RSA_size(rsa) bytes long.

The operation performed is + to = from^rsa->d mod rsa->n. + +int RSA_mod_exp( +BIGNUM *n; +BIGNUM *p; +RSA *rsa); + Normally you will never use this routine. + This is really an internal function which is called by + RSA_private_encrypt() and RSA_private_decrypt().

It takes + quite a period of time to run and should only be used to + generate initial private keys that should then be stored + for later use. The passed callback function + will be called periodically so that feedback can be given + as to how this function is progressing. + 'bits' is the length desired for the modulus, so it would be 1024 + to generate a 1024 bit private key. + 'e' is the value to use for the public exponent 'e'. Traditionally + it is set to either 3 or 0x10001. + The callback function (if not NULL) is called in the following + situations. + when we have generated a suspected prime number to test, + callback(0,num1++,cb_arg). When it passes a prime number test, + callback(1,num2++,cb_arg). When it is rejected as one of + the 2 primes required due to gcd(prime,e value) != 0, + callback(2,num3++,cb_arg).

It has a select loop at it's centre that handles multiple readers +and writers. + +Try the following command +ssleay s_mult -echo -nbio -ssl -v +echo - sends any sent text back to the sender +nbio - turns on non-blocking IO +ssl - accept SSL connections, default is normal text +v - print lots + type Q<cr> to quit + +In another window, run the following +ssleay s_client -pause </etc/termcap + +The pause option puts in a 1 second pause in each read(2)/write(2) call +so the other end will have read()s fail. + +==== session.doc ======================================================== + +I have just checked over and re-worked the session stuff. +The following brief example will ignore all setup information to do with +authentication. + +Things operate as follows. + +The SSL environment has a 'context', a SSL_CTX structure. This holds the +cached SSL_SESSIONS (which can be reused) and the certificate lookup +information. Each SSL structure needs to be associated with a SSL_CTX. +Normally only one SSL_CTX structure is needed per program. + +SSL_CTX *SSL_CTX_new(void ); +void SSL_CTX_free(SSL_CTX *); +These 2 functions create and destroy SSL_CTX structures + +The SSL_CTX has a session_cache_mode which is by default, +in SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER mode. What this means is that the library +will automatically add new session-id's to the cache apon sucsessful +SSL_accept() calls. +If SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT is set, then client certificates are also added +to the cache. +SSL_set_session_cache_mode(ctx,mode) will set the 'mode' and +SSL_get_session_cache_mode(ctx) will get the cache 'mode'. +The modes can be +SSL_SESS_CACHE_OFF - no caching +SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT - only SSL_connect() +SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER - only SSL_accept() +SSL_SESS_NO_CACHE_BOTH - Either SSL_accept() or SSL_connect(). +If SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_AUTO_CLEAR is set, old timed out sessions are +not automatically removed each 255, SSL_connect()s or SSL_accept()s. + +By default, apon every 255 successful SSL_connect() or SSL_accept()s, +the cache is flush. Please note that this could be expensive on +a heavily loaded SSL server, in which case, turn this off and +clear the cache of old entries 'manually' (with one of the functions +listed below) every few hours. Perhaps I should up this number, it is hard +to say. Remember, the '255' new calls is just a mechanims to get called +every now and then, in theory at most 255 new session-id's will have been +added but if 100 are added every minute, you would still have +500 in the cache before any would start being flushed (assuming a 3 minute +timeout).. + +int SSL_CTX_sess_hits(SSL_CTX *ctx); +int SSL_CTX_sess_misses(SSL_CTX *ctx); +int SSL_CTX_sess_timeouts(SSL_CTX *ctx); +These 3 functions return statistics about the SSL_CTX. These 3 are the +number of session id reuses. hits is the number of reuses, misses are the +number of lookups that failed, and timeouts is the number of cached +entries ignored because they had timeouted. + +ctx->new_session_cb is a function pointer to a function of type +int new_session_callback(SSL *ssl,SSL_SESSION *new); +This function, if set in the SSL_CTX structure is called whenever a new +SSL_SESSION is added to the cache. If the callback returns non-zero, it +means that the application will have to do a SSL_SESSION_free() +on the structure (this is +to do with the cache keeping the reference counts correct, without the +application needing to know about it. +The 'active' parameter is the current SSL session for which this connection +was created. + +void SSL_CTX_sess_set_new_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx,int (*cb)()); +to set the callback, +int (*cb)() SSL_CTX_sess_get_new_cb(SSL_CTX *ctx) +to get the callback. + +If the 'get session' callback is set, when a session id is looked up and +it is not in the session-id cache, this callback is called. The callback is +of the form +SSL_SESSION *get_session_callback(unsigned char *sess_id,int sess_id_len, + int *copy); + +The get_session_callback is intended to return null if no session id is found. +The reference count on the SSL_SESSION in incremented by the SSL library, +if copy is 1. Otherwise, the reference count is not modified. + +void SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb(ctx,cb) sets the callback and +int (*cb)()SSL_CTX_sess_get_get_cb(ctx) returns the callback. + +These callbacks are basically indended to be used by processes to +send their session-id's to other processes. I currently have not implemented +non-blocking semantics for these callbacks, it is upto the appication +to make the callbacks effiecent if they require blocking (perhaps +by 'saving' them and then 'posting them' when control returns from +the SSL_accept(). + +LHASH *SSL_CTX_sessions(SSL_CTX *ctx) +This returns the session cache. The lhash strucutre can be accessed for +statistics about the cache. + +void lh_stats(LHASH *lh, FILE *out); +void lh_node_stats(LHASH *lh, FILE *out); +void lh_node_usage_stats(LHASH *lh, FILE *out); + +can be used to print details about it's activity and current state. +You can also delve directly into the lhash structure for 14 different +counters that are kept against the structure. When I wrote the lhash library, +I was interested in gathering statistics :-). +Have a read of doc/lhash.doc in the SSLeay distribution area for more details +on the lhash library. + +Now as mentioned ealier, when a SSL is created, it needs a SSL_CTX. +SSL * SSL_new(SSL_CTX *); + +This stores a session. A session is secret information shared between 2 +SSL contexts. It will only be created if both ends of the connection have +authenticated their peer to their satisfaction. It basically contains +the information required to use a particular secret key cipher. + +To retrieve the SSL_CTX being used by a SSL, +SSL_CTX *SSL_get_SSL_CTX(SSL *s); + +Now when a SSL session is established between to programs, the 'session' +information that is cached in the SSL_CTX can me manipulated by the +following functions. +int SSL_set_session(SSL *s, SSL_SESSION *session); +This will set the SSL_SESSION to use for the next SSL_connect(). If you use +this function on an already 'open' established SSL connection, 'bad things +will happen'. This function is meaning-less when used on a ssl strucutre +that is just about to be used in a SSL_accept() call since the +SSL_accept() will either create a new session or retrieve one from the +cache. + +SSL_SESSION *SSL_get_session(SSL *s); +This will return the SSL_SESSION for the current SSL, NULL if there is +no session associated with the SSL structure. + +The SSL sessions are kept in the SSL_CTX in a hash table, to remove a +session +void SSL_CTX_remove_session(SSL_CTX *,SSL_SESSION *c); +and to add one +int SSL_CTX_add_session(SSL_CTX *s, SSL_SESSION *c); +SSL_CTX_add_session() returns 1 if the session was already in the cache (so it +was not added). +Whenever a new session is created via SSL_connect()/SSL_accept(), +they are automatically added to the cache, depending on the session_cache_mode +settings. SSL_set_session() +does not add it to the cache. Just call SSL_CTX_add_session() if you do want the +session added. For a 'client' this would not normally be the case. +SSL_CTX_add_session() is not normally ever used, except for doing 'evil' things +which the next 2 funtions help you do. + +int i2d_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION *in,unsigned char **pp); +SSL_SESSION *d2i_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION **a,unsigned char **pp,long length); +These 2 functions are in the standard ASN1 library form and can be used to +load and save to a byte format, the SSL_SESSION structure. +With these functions, you can save and read these structures to a files or +arbitary byte string. +The PEM_write_SSL_SESSION(fp,x) and PEM_read_SSL_SESSION(fp,x,cb) will +write to a file pointer in base64 encoding. + +What you can do with this, is pass session information between separate +processes. Please note, that you will probably also need to modify the +timeout information on the SSL_SESSIONs. + +long SSL_get_time(SSL_SESSION *s) +will return the 'time' that the session +was loaded. The timeout is relative to this time. This information is +saved when the SSL_SESSION is converted to binarary but it is stored +in as a unix long, which is rather OS dependant, but easy to convert back. + +long SSL_set_time(SSL_SESSION *s,long t) will set the above mentioned time. +The time value is just the value returned from time(3), and should really +be defined by be to be time_t. + +long SSL_get_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s); +long SSL_set_timeout(SSL_SESSION *s,long t); +These 2 retrieve and set the timeout which is just a number of secconds +from the 'SSL_get_time()' value. When this time period has elapesed, +the session will no longer be in the cache (well it will actually be removed +the next time it is attempted to be retrieved, so you could 'bump' +the timeout so it remains valid). +The 'time' and 'timeout' are set on a session when it is created, not reset +each time it is reused. If you did wish to 'bump it', just after establishing +a connection, do a +SSL_set_time(ssl,time(NULL)); + +You can also use +SSL_CTX_set_timeout(SSL_CTX *ctx,unsigned long t) and +SSL_CTX_get_timeout(SSL_CTX *ctx) to manipulate the default timeouts for +all SSL connections created against a SSL_CTX. If you set a timeout in +an SSL_CTX, all new SSL's created will inherit the timeout. It can be over +written by the SSL_set_timeout(SSL *s,unsigned long t) function call. +If you 'set' the timeout back to 0, the system default will be used. + +SSL_SESSION *SSL_SESSION_new(); +void SSL_SESSION_free(SSL_SESSION *ses); +These 2 functions are used to create and dispose of SSL_SESSION functions. +You should not ever normally need to use them unless you are using +i2d_SSL_SESSION() and/or d2i_SSL_SESSION(). If you 'load' a SSL_SESSION +via d2i_SSL_SESSION(), you will need to SSL_SESSION_free() it. +Both SSL_set_session() and SSL_CTX_add_session() will 'take copies' of the +structure (via reference counts) when it is passed to them. + +SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(ctx,time); +The first function will clear all sessions from the cache, which have expired +relative to 'time' (which could just be time(NULL)). + +SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(ctx,0); +This is a special case that clears everything. + +As a final comment, a 'session' is not enough to establish a new +connection. If a session has timed out, a certificate and private key +need to have been associated with the SSL structure. +SSL_copy_session_id(SSL *to,SSL *from); will copy not only the session +strucutre but also the private key and certificate associated with +'from'. + +EXAMPLES. + +So lets play at being a weird SSL server. + +/* setup a context */ +ctx=SSL_CTX_new(); + +/* Lets load some session from binary into the cache, why one would do + * this is not toally clear, but passing between programs does make sense + * Perhaps you are using 4096 bit keys and are happy to keep them + * valid for a week, to avoid the RSA overhead of 15 seconds, I'm not toally + * sure, perhaps this is a process called from an SSL inetd and this is being + * passed to the application. */ +session=d2i_SSL_SESSION(....) +SSL_CTX_add_session(ctx,session); + +/* Lets even add a session from a file */ +session=PEM_read_SSL_SESSION(....) +SSL_CTX_add_session(ctx,session); + +/* create a new SSL structure */ +ssl=SSL_new(ctx); + +/* At this point we want to be able to 'create' new session if + * required, so we need a certificate and RSAkey. */ +SSL_use_RSAPrivateKey_file(ssl,...) +SSL_use_certificate_file(ssl,...) + +/* Now since we are a server, it make little sence to load a session against + * the ssl strucutre since a SSL_accept() will either create a new session or + * grab an existing one from the cache. */ + +/* grab a socket descriptor */ +fd=accept(...); + +/* associated it with the ssl strucutre */ +SSL_set_fd(ssl,fd); + +SSL_accept(ssl); /* 'do' SSL using out cert and RSA key */ + +/* Lets print out the session details or lets save it to a file, + * perhaps with a secret key cipher, so that we can pass it to the FBI + * when they want to decode the session :-).

The functions all need to be passed +a SHA_CTX which is used to hold the SHA context during multiple SHA_Update() +function calls. The normal method of use for this library is as follows +This library contains both SHA and SHA-1 digest algorithms. SHA-1 is +an update to SHA (which should really be called SHA-0 now) which +tweaks the algorithm slightly. The SHA-1 algorithm is used by simply +using SHA1_Init(), SHA1_Update(), SHA1_Final() and SHA1() instead of the +SHA*() calls + +SHA_Init(...); +SHA_Update(...); +... +SHA_Update(...); +SHA_Final(...); + +This library requires the inclusion of 'sha.h'. + +The functions are as follows: + +void SHA_Init( +SHA_CTX *c); + This function needs to be called to initiate a SHA_CTX structure for + use. + +void SHA_Update( +SHA_CTX *c; +unsigned char *data; +unsigned long len); + This updates the message digest context being generated with 'len' + bytes from the 'data' pointer. The number of bytes can be any + length. + +void SHA_Final( +unsigned char *md; +SHA_CTX *c; + This function is called when a message digest of the data digested + with SHA_Update() is wanted. The message digest is put in the 'md' + array and is SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH (20) bytes long. + +unsigned char *SHA( +unsigned char *d; +unsigned long n; +unsigned char *md; + This function performs a SHA_Init(), followed by a SHA_Update() + followed by a SHA_Final() (using a local SHA_CTX). + The resulting digest is put into 'md' if it is not NULL. + Regardless of the value of 'md', the message + digest is returned from the function. If 'md' was NULL, the message + digest returned is being stored in a static structure. + + +==== speed.doc ======================================================== + +To get an idea of the performance of this library, use +ssleay speed + +perl util/sp-diff.pl file1 file2 + +will print out the relative differences between the 2 files which are +expected to be the output from the speed program. + +The performace of the library is very dependant on the Compiler +quality and various flags used to build. + +--- + +These are some numbers I did comparing RSAref and SSLeay on a Pentium 100. +[ These numbers are all out of date, as of SSL - 0.6.1 the RSA +operations are about 2 times faster, so check the version number ] + +RSA performance. + +SSLeay 0.6.0 +Pentium 100, 32meg, Windows NT Workstation 3.51 +linux - gcc v 2.7.0 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -m486 +and +Windows NT - Windows NT 3.51 - Visual C++ 4.1 - 586 code + 32bit assember +Windows 3.1 - Windows NT 3.51 - Visual C++ 1.52c - 286 code + 32bit assember +NT Dos Shell- Windows NT 3.51 - Visual C++ 1.52c - 286 code + 16bit assember + +Times are how long it takes to do an RSA private key operation. + + 512bits 1024bits +------------------------------- +SSLeay NT dll 0.042s 0.202s see above +SSLeay linux 0.046s 0.218s Assember inner loops (normal build) +SSLeay linux 0.067s 0.380s Pure C code with BN_LLONG defined +SSLeay W3.1 dll 0.108s 0.478s see above +SSLeay linux 0.109s 0.713s C without BN_LLONG. +RSAref2.0 linux 0.149s 0.936s +SSLeay MS-DOS 0.197s 1.049s see above + +486DX66, 32meg, Windows NT Server 3.51 + 512bits 1024bits +------------------------------- +SSLeay NT dll 0.084s 0.495s <- SSLeay 0.6.3 +SSLeay NT dll 0.154s 0.882s +SSLeay W3.1 dll 0.335s 1.538s +SSLeay MS-DOS 0.490s 2.790s + +What I find cute is that I'm still faster than RSAref when using standard C, +without using the 'long long' data type :-), %35 faster for 512bit and we +scale up to 3.2 times faster for the 'default linux' build.

A friend of mine (Tim Hudson) said "why don't you do SSL, +it has DES encryption in it and I would not mind using it in a SSL telnet". +While it was true I had written a DES library in previous years, litle +did I know what an expansive task SSL would turn into. + +First of all, the SSL protocol contains DES encryption. Well and good. My +DES library was fast and portable. It also contained the RSA's RC4 stream +cipher. Again, not a problem, some-one had just posted to sci.crypt +something that was claimed to be RC4. It also contained IDEA, I had the +specifications, not a problem to implement. MD5, an RFC, trivial, at most +I could spend a week or so trying to see if I could speed up the +implementation. All in all a nice set of ciphers. +Then the first 'expantion of the scope', RSA public key +encryption. Since I did not knowing a thing about public key encryption +or number theory, this appeared quite a daunting task. Just writing a +big number library would be problomatic in itself, let alone making it fast. +At this point the scope of 'implementing SSL' expands eponentialy. +First of all, the RSA private keys were being kept in ASN.1 format. +Thankfully the RSA PKCS series of documents explains this format. So I now +needed to be able to encode and decode arbitary ASN.1 objects. The Public +keys were embeded in X509 certificates. Hmm... these are not only +ASN.1 objects but they make up a heirachy of authentication. To +authenticate a X509 certificate one needs to retrieve it's issuers +certificate etc etc. Hmm..., so I also need to implement some kind +of certificate management software. I would also have to implement +software to authenticate certificates. At this point the support code made +the SSL part of my library look quite small. +Around this time, the first version of SSLeay was released. + +Ah, but here was the problem, I was not happy with the code so far. As may +have become obvious, I had been treating all of this as a learning +exersize, so I have completely written the library myself. As such, due +to the way it had grown like a fungus, much of the library was not +'elagent' or neat. There were global and static variables all over the +place, the SSL part did not even handle non-blocking IO. +The Great rewrite began. + +As of this point in time, the 'Great rewrite' has almost finished. So what +follows is an approximate list of what is actually SSLeay 0.5.0 + +/********* This needs to be updated for 0.6.0+ *************/ + +--- +The library contains the following routines. Please note that most of these +functions are not specfic for SSL or any other particular cipher +implementation. I have tried to make all the routines as general purpose +as possible. So you should not think of this library as an SSL +implemtation, but rather as a library of cryptographic functions +that also contains SSL. I refer to each of these function groupings as +libraries since they are often capable of functioning as independant +libraries + +First up, the general ciphers and message digests supported by the library. + +MD2 rfc???, a standard 'by parts' interface to this algorithm. +MD5 rfc???, the same type of interface as for the MD2 library except a + different algorithm. +SHA THe Secure Hash Algorithm. Again the same type of interface as + MD2/MD5 except the digest is 20 bytes. +SHA1 The 'revised' version of SHA. Just about identical to SHA except + for one tweak of an inner loop. +DES This is my libdes library that has been floating around for the last + few years. It has been enhanced for no other reason than completeness. + It now supports ecb, cbc, cfb, ofb, cfb64, ofb64 in normal mode and + triple DES modes of ecb, cbc, cfb64 and ofb64. cfb64 and ofb64 are + functional interfaces to the 64 bit modes of cfb and ofb used in + such a way thay they function as single character interfaces. +RC4 The RSA Inc. stream cipher. +RC2 The RSA Inc. block cipher. +IDEA An implmentation of the IDEA cipher, the library supports ecb, cbc, + cfb64 and ofb64 modes of operation. + +Now all the above mentioned ciphers and digests libraries support high +speed, minimal 'crap in the way' type interfaces. For fastest and +lowest level access, these routines should be used directly. + +Now there was also the matter of public key crypto systems. These are +based on large integer arithmatic. + +BN This is my large integer library. It supports all the normal + arithmentic operations. It uses malloc extensivly and as such has + no limits of the size of the numbers being manipulated. If you + wish to use 4000 bit RSA moduli, these routines will handle it. + This library also contains routines to 'generate' prime numbers and + to test for primality. The RSA and DH libraries sit on top of this + library. As of this point in time, I don't support SHA, but + when I do add it, it will just sit on top of the routines contained + in this library. +RSA This implements the RSA public key algorithm. It also contains + routines that will generate a new private/public key pair. + All the RSA functions conform to the PKCS#1 standard. +DH This is an implementation of the + Diffie-Hellman protocol. There are all the require routines for + the protocol, plus extra routines that can be used to generate a + strong prime for use with a specified generator. While this last + routine is not generally required by applications implementing DH, + It is present for completeness and because I thing it is much + better to be able to 'generate' your own 'magic' numbers as oposed + to using numbers suplied by others. I conform to the PKCS#3 + standard where required. + +You may have noticed the preceeding section mentions the 'generation' of +prime numbers. Now this requries the use of 'random numbers'. + +RAND This psuedo-random number library is based on MD5 at it's core + and a large internal state (2k bytes). Once you have entered enough + seed data into this random number algorithm I don't feel + you will ever need to worry about it generating predictable output. + Due to the way I am writing a portable library, I have left the + issue of how to get good initial random seed data upto the + application but I do have support routines for saving and loading a + persistant random number state for use between program runs. + +Now to make all these ciphers easier to use, a higher level +interface was required. In this form, the same function would be used to +encrypt 'by parts', via any one of the above mentioned ciphers. + +EVP The Digital EnVeloPe library is quite large. At it's core are + function to perform encryption and decryption by parts while using + an initial parameter to specify which of the 17 different ciphers + or 4 different message digests to use. On top of these are implmented + the digital signature functions, sign, verify, seal and open. + Base64 encoding of binary data is also done in this library. + +PEM rfc???? describe the format for Privacy Enhanced eMail. + As part of this standard, methods of encoding digital enveloped + data is an ascii format are defined. As such, I use a form of these + to encode enveloped data. While at this point in time full support + for PEM has not been built into the library, a minimal subset of + the secret key and Base64 encoding is present. These reoutines are + mostly used to Ascii encode binary data with a 'type' associated + with it and perhaps details of private key encryption used to + encrypt the data. + +PKCS7 This is another Digital Envelope encoding standard which uses ASN.1 + to encode the data. At this point in time, while there are some + routines to encode and decode this binary format, full support is + not present. + +As Mentioned, above, there are several different ways to encode +data structures. + +ASN1 This library is more a set of primatives used to encode the packing + and unpacking of data structures. It is used by the X509 + certificate standard and by the PKCS standards which are used by + this library. It also contains routines for duplicating and signing + the structures asocisated with X509. + +X509 The X509 library contains routines for packing and unpacking, + verifying and just about every thing else you would want to do with + X509 certificates. + +PKCS7 PKCS-7 is a standard for encoding digital envelope data + structures. At this point in time the routines will load and save + DER forms of these structees. They need to be re-worked to support + the BER form which is the normal way PKCS-7 is encoded. If the + previous 2 sentances don't make much sense, don't worry, this + library is not used by this version of SSLeay anyway. + +OBJ ASN.1 uses 'object identifiers' to identify objects. A set of + functions were requred to translate from ASN.1 to an intenger, to a + character string. This library provieds these translations + +Now I mentioned an X509 library. X509 specified a hieachy of certificates +which needs to be traversed to authenticate particular certificates. + +METH This library is used to push 'methods' of retrieving certificates + into the library. There are some supplied 'methods' with SSLeay + but applications can add new methods if they so desire. + This library has not been finished and is not being used in this + version. + +Now all the above are required for use in the initial point of this project. + +SSL The SSL protocol. This is a full implmentation of SSL v 2. It + support both server and client authentication. SSL v 3 support + will be added when the SSL v 3 specification is released in it's + final form. + +Now quite a few of the above mentioned libraries rely on a few 'complex' +data structures. For each of these I have a library. + +Lhash This is a hash table library which is used extensivly. + +STACK An implemetation of a Stack data structure. + +BUF A simple character array structure that also support a function to + check that the array is greater that a certain size, if it is not, + it is realloced so that is it. + +TXT_DB A simple memory based text file data base. The application can specify + unique indexes that will be enforced at update time. + +CONF Most of the programs written for this library require a configuration + file. Instead of letting programs constantly re-implment this + subsystem, the CONF library provides a consistant and flexable + interface to not only configuration files but also environment + variables. + +But what about when something goes wrong? +The one advantage (and perhaps disadvantage) of all of these +functions being in one library was the ability to implement a +single error reporting system. + +ERR This library is used to report errors. The error system records + library number, function number (in the library) and reason + number. Multiple errors can be reported so that an 'error' trace + is created. The errors can be printed in numeric or textual form. + + +==== ssluse.doc ======================================================== + +We have an SSL_CTX which contains global information for lots of +SSL connections. The session-id cache and the certificate verificate cache. +It also contains default values for use when certificates are used. + +SSL_CTX + default cipher list + session-id cache + certificate cache + default session-id timeout period + New session-id callback + Required session-id callback + session-id stats + Informational callback + Callback that is set, overrides the SSLeay X509 certificate + verification + The default Certificate/Private Key pair + Default read ahead mode. + Default verify mode and verify callback. These are not used + if the over ride callback mentioned above is used. + +Each SSL can have the following defined for it before a connection is made. + +Certificate +Private key +Ciphers to use +Certificate verify mode and callback +IO object to use in the comunication. +Some 'read-ahead' mode information. +A previous session-id to re-use. + +A connection is made by using SSL_connect or SSL_accept. +When non-blocking IO is being used, there are functions that can be used +to determin where and why the SSL_connect or SSL_accept did not complete. +This information can be used to recall the functions when the 'error' +condition has dissapeared. + +After the connection has been made, information can be retrived about the +SSL session and the session-id values that have been decided apon. +The 'peer' certificate can be retrieved. + +The session-id values include +'start time' +'timeout length' + + + +==== stack.doc ======================================================== + +The stack data structure is used to store an ordered list of objects. +It is basically misnamed to call it a stack but it can function that way +and that is what I originally used it for. Due to the way element +pointers are kept in a malloc()ed array, the most efficient way to use this +structure is to add and delete elements from the end via sk_pop() and +sk_push(). If you wish to do 'lookups' sk_find() is quite efficient since +it will sort the stack (if required) and then do a binary search to lookup +the requested item. This sorting occurs automatically so just sk_push() +elements on the stack and don't worry about the order. Do remember that if +you do a sk_find(), the order of the elements will change. + +You should never need to 'touch' this structure directly. +typedef struct stack_st + { + unsigned int num; + char **data; + int sorted; + + unsigned int num_alloc; + int (*comp)(); + } STACK; + +'num' holds the number of elements in the stack, 'data' is the array of +elements. 'sorted' is 1 is the list has been sorted, 0 if not. + +num_alloc is the number of 'nodes' allocated in 'data'. When num becomes +larger than num_alloc, data is realloced to a larger size. +If 'comp' is set, it is a function that is used to compare 2 of the items +in the stack. The function should return -1, 0 or 1, depending on the +ordering. + +#define sk_num(sk) ((sk)->num) +#define sk_value(sk,n) ((sk)->data[n]) + +These 2 macros should be used to access the number of elements in the +'stack' and to access a pointer to one of the values. + +STACK *sk_new(int (*c)()); + This creates a new stack. If 'c', the comparison function, is not +specified, the various functions that operate on a sorted 'stack' will not +work (sk_find()). NULL is returned on failure. + +void sk_free(STACK *); + This function free()'s a stack structure. The elements in the +stack will not be freed so one should 'pop' and free all elements from the +stack before calling this function or call sk_pop_free() instead. + +void sk_pop_free(STACK *st; void (*func)()); + This function calls 'func' for each element on the stack, passing +the element as the argument. sk_free() is then called to free the 'stack' +structure. + +int sk_insert(STACK *sk,char *data,int where); + This function inserts 'data' into stack 'sk' at location 'where'. +If 'where' is larger that the number of elements in the stack, the element +is put at the end. This function tends to be used by other 'stack' +functions. Returns 0 on failure, otherwise the number of elements in the +new stack. + +char *sk_delete(STACK *st,int loc); + Remove the item a location 'loc' from the stack and returns it. +Returns NULL if the 'loc' is out of range. + +char *sk_delete_ptr(STACK *st, char *p); + If the data item pointed to by 'p' is in the stack, it is deleted +from the stack and returned. NULL is returned if the element is not in the +stack. + +int sk_find(STACK *st,char *data); + Returns the location that contains a value that is equal to +the 'data' item. If the comparison function was not set, this function +does a linear search. This function actually qsort()s the stack if it is not +in order and then uses bsearch() to do the initial search. If the +search fails,, -1 is returned. For mutliple items with the same +value, the index of the first in the array is returned. + +int sk_push(STACK *st,char *data); + Append 'data' to the stack. 0 is returned if there is a failure +(due to a malloc failure), else 1. This is +sk_insert(st,data,sk_num(st)); + +int sk_unshift(STACK *st,char *data); + Prepend 'data' to the front (location 0) of the stack. This is +sk_insert(st,data,0); + +char *sk_shift(STACK *st); + Return and delete from the stack the first element in the stack. +This is sk_delete(st,0); + +char *sk_pop(STACK *st); + Return and delete the last element on the stack. This is +sk_delete(st,sk_num(sk)-1); + +void sk_zero(STACK *st); + Removes all items from the stack. It does not 'free' +pointers but is a quick way to clear a 'stack of references'. + +==== threads.doc ======================================================== + +How to compile SSLeay for multi-threading. + +Well basically it is quite simple, set the compiler flags and build. +I have only really done much testing under Solaris and Windows NT. +If you library supports localtime_r() and gmtime_r() add, +-DTHREADS to the makefile parameters. You can probably survive with out +this define unless you are going to have multiple threads generating +certificates at once. It will not affect the SSL side of things. + +The approach I have taken to doing locking is to make the application provide +callbacks to perform locking and so that the SSLeay library can distinguish +between threads (for the error state). + +To have a look at an example program, 'cd mt; vi mttest.c'. +To build under solaris, sh solaris.sh, for Windows NT or Windows 95, +win32.bat + +This will build mttest which will fire up 10 threads that talk SSL +to each other 10 times. +To enable everything to work, the application needs to call + +CRYPTO_set_id_callback(id_function); +CRYPTO_set_locking_callback(locking_function); + +before any multithreading is started. +id_function does not need to be defined under Windows NT or 95, the +correct function will be called if it is not. Under unix, getpid() +is call if the id_callback is not defined, for Solaris this is wrong +(since threads id's are not pid's) but under Linux it is correct +(threads are just processes sharing the data segement). + +The locking_callback is used to perform locking by the SSLeay library. +eg. + +void solaris_locking_callback(mode,type,file,line) +int mode; +int type; +char *file; +int line; + { + if (mode & CRYPTO_LOCK) + mutex_lock(&(lock_cs[type])); + else + mutex_unlock(&(lock_cs[type])); + } + +Now in this case I have used mutexes instead of read/write locks, since they +are faster and there are not many read locks in SSLeay, you may as well +always use write locks. file and line are __FILE__ and __LINE__ from +the compile and can be usefull when debugging. + +Now as you can see, 'type' can be one of a range of values, these values are +defined in crypto/crypto.h +CRYPTO_get_lock_name(type) will return a text version of what the lock is. +There are CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS locks required, so under solaris, the setup +for multi-threading can be + +static mutex_t lock_cs[CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS]; + +void thread_setup() + { + int i; + + for (i=0; i<CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS; i++) + mutex_init(&(lock_cs[i]),USYNC_THREAD,NULL); + CRYPTO_set_id_callback((unsigned long (*)())solaris_thread_id); + CRYPTO_set_locking_callback((void (*)())solaris_locking_callback); + } + +As a final note, under Windows NT or Windows 95, you have to be careful +not to mix the various threaded, unthreaded and debug libraries. +Normally if they are mixed incorrectly, mttest will crash just after printing +out some usage statistics at the end. This is because the +different system libraries use different malloc routines and if +data is malloc()ed inside crypt32.dll or ssl32.dll and then free()ed by a +different library malloc, things get very confused. + +The default SSLeay DLL builds use /MD, so if you use this on your +application, things will work as expected. If you use /MDd, +you will probably have to rebuild SSLeay using this flag. +I should modify util/mk1mf.pl so it does all this correctly, but +this has not been done yet. + +One last warning. Because locking overheads are actually quite large, the +statistics collected against the SSL_CTX for successfull connections etc +are not locked when updated. This does make it possible for these +values to be slightly lower than they should be, if you are +running multithreaded on a multi-processor box, but this does not really +matter much. + + +==== txt_db.doc ======================================================== + +TXT_DB, a simple text based in memory database. + +It holds rows of ascii data, for which the only special character is '\0'. +The rows can be of an unlimited length. + +==== why.doc ======================================================== + +This file is more of a note for other people who wish to understand why +the build environment is the way it is :-). + +The include files 'depend' as follows. +Each of +crypto/*/*.c includes crypto/cryptlib.h +ssl/*.c include ssl/ssl_locl.h +apps/*.c include apps/apps.h +crypto/cryptlib.h, ssl/ssl_locl.h and apps/apps.h +all include e_os.h which contains OS/environment specific information. +If you need to add something todo with a particular environment, +add it to this file. It is worth remembering that quite a few libraries, +like lhash, des, md, sha etc etc do not include crypto/cryptlib.h. This +is because these libraries should be 'independantly compilable' and so I +try to keep them this way. +e_os.h is not so much a part of SSLeay, as the placing in one spot all the +evil OS dependant muck. + +I wanted to automate as many things as possible. This includes +error number generation. A +make errors +will scan the source files for error codes, append them to the correct +header files, and generate the functions to print the text version +of the error numbers. So don't even think about adding error numbers by +hand, put them in the form +XXXerr(XXXX_F_XXXX,YYYY_R_YYYY); +on line and it will be automatically picked up my a make errors. + +In a similar vein, programs to be added into ssleay in the apps directory +just need to have an entry added to E_EXE in makefile.ssl and +everthing will work as expected. Don't edit progs.h by hand. + +make links re-generates the symbolic links that are used. The reason why +I keep everything in its own directory, and don't put all the +test programs and header files in 'test' and 'include' is because I want +to keep the 'sub-libraries' independant. I still 'pull' out +indervidual libraries for use in specific projects where the code is +required. I have used the 'lhash' library in just about every software +project I have worked on :-). + +make depend generates dependancies and +make dclean removes them. + +You will notice that I use perl quite a bit when I could be using 'sed'. +The reason I decided to do this was to just stick to one 'extra' program. +For Windows NT, I have perl and no sed. + +The util/mk1mf.pl program can be used to generate a single makefile. +I use this because makefiles under Microsoft are horrific. +Each C compiler seems to have different linker formats, which have +to be used because the retarted C compilers explode when you do +cl -o file *.o. + +Now some would argue that I should just use the single makefile. I don't +like it during develoment for 2 reasons. First, the actuall make +command takes a long time. For my current setup, if I'm in +crypto/bn and I type make, only the crypto/bn directory gets rebuilt, +which is nice when you are modifying prototypes in bn.h which +half the SSLeay depends on. The second is that to add a new souce file +I just plonk it in at the required spot in the local makefile. This +then alows me to keep things local, I don't need to modify a 'global' +tables (the make for unix, the make for NT, the make for w31...). +When I am ripping apart a library structure, it is nice to only +have to worry about one directory :-). + +Having said all this, for the hell of it I put together 2 files that +#include all the souce code (generated by doing a ls */*.o after a build). +crypto.c takes only 30 seconds to build under NT and 2 minutes under linux +for my pentium100. Much faster that the normal build :-). +Again, the problem is that when using libraries, every program linked +to libcrypto.a would suddenly get 330k of library when it may only need +1k. This technique does look like a nice way to do shared libraries though. + +Oh yes, as a final note, to 'build' a distribution, I just type +make dist. +This cleans and packages everything. The directory needs to be called +SSLeay since the make does a 'cd ..' and renames and tars things up. + +==== req.1 ======================================================== + +The 'req' command is used to manipulate and deal with pkcs#10 +certificate requests. + +It's default mode of operation is to load a certificate and then +write it out again. + +By default the 'req' is read from stdin in 'PEM' format. +The -inform option can be used to specify 'pem' format or 'der' +format. PEM format is the base64 encoding of the DER format. + +By default 'req' then writes the request back out. -outform can be used +to indicate the desired output format, be it 'pem' or 'der'. + +To specify an input file, use the '-in' option and the '-out' option +can be used to specify the output file. + +If you wish to perform a command and not output the certificate +request afterwards, use the '-noout' option. + +When a certificate is loaded, it can be printed in a human readable +ascii format via the '-text' option. + +To check that the signature on a certificate request is correct, use +the '-verify' option to make sure that the private key contained in the +certificate request corresponds to the signature. + +Besides the default mode, there is also the 'generate a certificate +request' mode. There are several flags that trigger this mode. + +-new will generate a new RSA key (if required) and then prompts +the user for details for the certificate request. +-newkey has an argument that is the number of bits to make the new +key. This function also triggers '-new'. + +The '-new' option can have a key to use specified instead of having to +load one, '-key' is used to specify the file containg the key. +-keyform can be used to specify the format of the key. Only +'pem' and 'der' formats are supported, later, 'netscape' format may be added. + +Finally there is the '-x509' options which makes req output a self +signed x509 certificate instead of a certificate request. + +Now as you may have noticed, there are lots of default options that +cannot be specified via the command line. They are held in a 'template' +or 'configuration file'. The -config option specifies which configuration +file to use. See conf.doc for details on the syntax of this file. + +The req command uses the 'req' section of the config file. + +--- +# The following variables are defined. For this example I will populate +# the various values +[ req ] +default_bits = 512 # default number of bits to use. +default_keyfile = testkey.pem # Where to write the generated keyfile + # if not specified. +distinguished_name= req_dn # The section that contains the + # information about which 'object' we + # want to put in the DN. +attributes = req_attr # The objects we want for the + # attributes field. +encrypt_rsa_key = no # Should we encrypt newly generated + # keys.
