-This file belongs in ../apps, but I'll leave it here because it deals
-with SSL :-) It is rather dated but it gives you an idea of how
-things work.
-===
-
-17 Jul 1995
-I have been changing things quite a bit and have not fully updated
-this file, so take what you read with a grain of salt
-eric
-===
-The s_client and s_server programs can be used to test SSL capable
-IP/port addresses and the verification of the X509 certificates in use
-by these services. 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. Once connected, it will attempt to authenticate the
-certificate it was passed and if everything works as expected, a 2
-directional channel will be open. Any text typed will be sent to the
-other end. type Q<cr> to exit. Flags are as follows.
--host arg : Arg is the host or IP address to connect to.
--port arg : Arg is the port to connect to (https is 443).
--verify arg : Turn on authentication of the server certificate.
- : Arg specifies the 'depth', this will covered below.
--cert arg : The optional certificate to use. This certificate
- : will be returned to the server if the server
- : requests it for client authentication.
--key arg : The private key that matches the certificate
- : specified by the -cert option. If this is not
- : specified (but -cert is), the -cert file will be
- : searched for the Private key. Both files are
- : assumed to be in PEM format.
--CApath arg : When to look for certificates when 'verifying' the
- : certificate from the server.
--CAfile arg : A file containing certificates to be used for
- : 'verifying' the server certificate.
--reconnect : Once a connection has been made, drop it and
- : reconnect with same session-id. This is for testing :-).
-
-The '-verify n' parameter specifies not only to verify the servers
-certificate but to also only take notice of 'n' levels. The best way
-to explain is to show via examples.
-Given
-s_server -cert server.PEM is running.

-Minimal in SSLeay. If you want to see what the modulus and exponent are,
-try asn1parse -offset 25 -length 75 <key.pem
-asn1parse will currently stuff up on the 'length 75' part (fixed in next
-release) but it will print the stuff. If you are after more
-documentation on ASN.1, have a look at www.rsa.com and get their PKCS
-documents, most of my initial work on SSLeay was done using them.
-
-As for SSLeay,
-util/crypto.num and util/ssl.num are lists of all exported functions in
-the library (but not macros :-(.
-
-The ones for extracting public keys from certificates and certificate
-requests are EVP_PKEY * X509_REQ_extract_key(X509_REQ *req);
-EVP_PKEY * X509_extract_key(X509 *x509);
-
-To verify a signature on a signed ASN.1 object
-int X509_verify(X509 *a,EVP_PKEY *key);
-int X509_REQ_verify(X509_REQ *a,EVP_PKEY *key);
-int X509_CRL_verify(X509_CRL *a,EVP_PKEY *key);
-int NETSCAPE_SPKI_verify(NETSCAPE_SPKI *a,EVP_PKEY *key);
-
-I should mention that EVP_PKEY can be used to hold a public or a private key,
-since for things like RSA and DSS, a public key is just a subset of what
-is stored for the private key.
-
-To sign any of the above structures
-
-int X509_sign(X509 *a,EVP_PKEY *key,EVP_MD *md);
-int X509_REQ_sign(X509_REQ *a,EVP_PKEY *key,EVP_MD *md);
-int X509_CRL_sign(X509_CRL *a,EVP_PKEY *key,EVP_MD *md);
-int NETSCAPE_SPKI_sign(NETSCAPE_SPKI *a,EVP_PKEY *key,EVP_MD *md);
-
-where md is the message digest to sign with.
-
-There are all defined in x509.h and all the _sign and _verify functions are
-actually macros to the ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify() functions.
-These functions will put the correct algorithm identifiers in the correct
-places in the structures.

-The applications
-
-Ok, where to begin....
-In the begining, when SSLeay was small (April 1995), there
-were but few applications, they did happily cohabit in
-the one bin directory. 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.
-

-==== 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. This
-function can be used to read a series of objects from a file. While any
-data type can be encrypted (see PEM_ASN1_write) only RSA private keys tend
-to be encrypted.
-
-char * PEM_ASN1_read_bio(char *(*d2i)(),char *name,BIO *fp,
- char **x,int (*cb)());
-Same as PEM_ASN1_read() except using a BIO. This is called by
-PEM_ASN1_read().
-
-int PEM_ASN1_write(int (*i2d)(),char *name,FILE *fp,char *x,EVP_CIPHER *enc,
- unsigned char *kstr,int klen,int (*callback)());
-
-int PEM_ASN1_write_bio(int (*i2d)(),char *name,BIO *fp,
- char *x,EVP_CIPHER *enc,unsigned char *kstr,int klen,
- int (*callback)());
-
-int ASN1_sign(int (*i2d)(), X509_ALGOR *algor1, X509_ALGOR *algor2,
- ASN1_BIT_STRING *signature, char *data, RSA *rsa, EVP_MD *type);
-int ASN1_verify(int (*i2d)(), X509_ALGOR *algor1,

-BIO Routines
-
-This documentation is rather sparse, you are probably best
-off looking at the code for specific details.
-
-The BIO library is a IO abstraction that was originally
-inspired by the need to have callbacks to perform IO to FILE
-pointers when using Windows 3.1 DLLs. 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.

-==== 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.

-==== 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 */

-
-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 first
- and last keys are the same.
-ede3 The cipher is used in Encrypt, Decrypt, Encrypt mode.
-
-All the Cipher routines take a EVP_CIPHER_CTX pointer as an argument.
-The state of the cipher is kept in this structure.
-
-typedef struct EVP_CIPHER_Ctx_st
- {
- EVP_CIPHER *cipher;
- int encrypt; /* encrypt or decrypt */
- int buf_len; /* number we have left */
- unsigned char buf[8];
- union {
- .... /* cipher specific stuff */
- } c;
- } EVP_CIPHER_CTX;
-
-Cipher is a pointer the the EVP_CIPHER for the current context. 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().

-
-To decrypt, use the EVP_DecryptXXXXX functions except that EVP_DecryptFinal()
-will return 0 if the decryption fails (only detectable on block ciphers).
-
-You can also use
-EVP_CipherInit()
-EVP_CipherUpdate()
-EVP_CipherFinal()
-which does either encryption or decryption depending on an extra
-parameter to EVP_CipherInit().
-
-
-To do the base64 encoding,
-EVP_EncodeInit()
-EVP_EncodeUpdate()
-EVP_EncodeFinal()
-
-EVP_DecodeInit()
-EVP_DecodeUpdate()
-EVP_DecodeFinal()
-
-where the encoding is quite simple, but the decoding can be a bit more
-fun (due to dud input).
-
-EVP_DecodeUpdate() returns -1 for an error on an input line, 0 if the
-'last line' was just processed, and 1 if more lines should be submitted.
-
-EVP_DecodeFinal() returns -1 for an error or 1 if things are ok.
-
-So the loop becomes
-EVP_DecodeInit(....)
-for (;;)

- if (i < 0) goto err;
-
- /* process the data */
-
- if (i == 0) break;
- }
-EVP_DecodeFinal(....);
-/* process the data */
-
-The problem in 'enc.c' is that I was stuff the processing up after the
-EVP_DecodeFinal(...) when the for(..) loop was not being run (one line of
-base64 data) and this was because 'enc.c' tries to scan over a file until
-it hits the first valid base64 encoded line.
-
-hope this helps a bit.

-==== conf.doc ========================================================
-
-The CONF library.
-
-The CONF library is a simple set of routines that can be used to configure
-programs. It is a superset of the genenv() function with some extra
-structure.
-
-The library consists of 5 functions.
-
-LHASH *CONF_load(LHASH *config,char *file);
-This function is called to load in a configuration file. Multiple
-configuration files can be loaded, with each subsequent 'load' overwriting
-any already defined 'variables'. If there is an error, NULL is returned.
-If config is NULL, a new LHASH structure is created and returned, otherwise
-the new data in the 'file' is loaded into the 'config' structure.
-
-void CONF_free(LHASH *config);
-This function free()s the data in config.
-
-char *CONF_get_string(LHASH *config,char *section,char *name);
-This function returns the string found in 'config' that corresponds to the
-'section' and 'name' specified. Classes and the naming system used will be
-discussed later in this document. If the variable is not defined, an NULL
-is returned.
-
-long CONF_get_long(LHASH *config,char *section, char *name);
-This function is the same as CONF_get_string() except that it converts the
-string to an long and returns it. If variable is not a number or the
-variable does not exist, 0 is returned. This is a little problematic but I
-don't know of a simple way around it.
-
-STACK *CONF_get_section(LHASH *config, char *section);
-This function returns a 'stack' of CONF_VALUE items that are all the
-items defined in a particular section. DO NOT free() any of the
-variable returned. They will disappear when CONF_free() is called.
-
-The 'lookup' model.
-The configuration file is divided into 'sections'. Each section is started by
-a line of the form '[ section ]'. All subsequent variable definitions are
-of this section. A variable definition is a simple alpha-numeric name
-followed by an '=' and then the data. 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\

-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.

-
-==== 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. 'pkey' of course is the private key. It is
-one of EVP_PKEY_RSA or EVP_PKEY_DSA type.
-If there is an error, 0 is returned, otherwise 1.
-
-Verify is used to check an signed message digest.
-
-#define EVP_VerifyInit(a,b) EVP_DigestInit(a,b)
-#define EVP_VerifyUpdate(a,b,c) EVP_DigestUpdate(a,b,c)
-Since the first step is to generate a message digest, the first 2 functions
-are macros.
-
-int EVP_VerifyFinal(
-EVP_MD_CTX *ctx,
-unsigned char *md,
-unsigned int s,
-EVP_PKEY *pkey);
- This function finishes the generation of the message digest and then
-compares it with the supplied encrypted message digest. 'md' contains the
-'s' bytes of encrypted message digest. 'pkey' is used to public key decrypt
-the digest. It is then compared with the message digest just generated.
-If they match, 1 is returned else 0.
-
-int EVP_SealInit(EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, EVP_CIPHER *type, unsigned char **ek,
- int *ekl, unsigned char *iv, EVP_PKEY **pubk, int npubk);
-Must have at least one public key, error is 0. I should also mention that
-the buffers pointed to by 'ek' need to be EVP_PKEY_size(pubk[n]) is size.
-
-#define EVP_SealUpdate(a,b,c,d,e) EVP_EncryptUpdate(a,b,c,d,e)
-void EVP_SealFinal(EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx,unsigned char *out,int *outl);
-

-==== error.doc ========================================================
-
-The error routines.
-
-The 'error' system I've implemented is intended to server 2 purpose, to
-record the reason why a command failed and to record where in the libraries
-the failure occurred. 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 is said about DES is directly
-applicable for IDEA.

-
-If you are not producing a web browser, it is easy to build SSLeay with

-
-Removing IDEA, RC2 and RC4 would only leave DES and Triple DES but

-
-Thawte Consulting issues certificates (they are the people who sell the

-could use the DLL/shared library with all the ciphers (and without RSAref).
-
-This could be completly hidden from the application, so this would not
-even require a re-linking.

-==== lhash.doc ========================================================
-
-The LHASH library.
-
-I wrote this library in 1991 and have since forgotten why I called it lhash.
-It implements a hash table from an article I read at the
-time from 'Communications of the ACM'. 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. The functions all need to be passed
-a MD2_CTX which is used to hold the MD2 context during multiple MD2_Update()
-function calls. The normal method of use for this library is as follows
-
-MD2_Init(...);
-MD2_Update(...);
-...
-MD2_Update(...);
-MD2_Final(...);
-
-This library requires the inclusion of 'md2.h'.
-
-The main negative about MD2 is that it is slow, especially when compared
-to MD5.
-
-The functions are as follows:
-
-void MD2_Init(
-MD2_CTX *c);
- This function needs to be called to initiate a MD2_CTX structure for
- use.
-
-void MD2_Update(

-
-==== md5.doc ========================================================
-
-The MD5 library.
-MD5 is a message digest algorithm that can be used to condense an arbitrary
-length message down to a 16 byte hash. The functions all need to be passed
-a MD5_CTX which is used to hold the MD5 context during multiple MD5_Update()
-function calls. This library also contains random number routines that are
-based on MD5
-
-The normal method of use for this library is as follows
-
-MD5_Init(...);
-MD5_Update(...);
-...
-MD5_Update(...);
-MD5_Final(...);
-
-This library requires the inclusion of 'md5.h'.
-
-The functions are as follows:
-
-void MD5_Init(
-MD5_CTX *c);
- This function needs to be called to initiate a MD5_CTX structure for
- use.
-
-void MD5_Update(
-MD5_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 MD5_Final(
-unsigned char *md;
-MD5_CTX *c;
- This function is called when a message digest of the data digested
- with MD5_Update() is wanted. The message digest is put in the 'md'
- array and is MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH (16) bytes long.
-
-unsigned char *MD5(
-unsigned char *d;
-unsigned long n;
-unsigned char *md;
- This function performs a MD5_Init(), followed by a MD5_Update()
- followed by a MD5_Final() (using a local MD5_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.
-
-
-==== memory.doc ========================================================
-
-In the interests of debugging SSLeay, there is an option to compile
-using some simple memory leak checking.
-
-All malloc(), free() and realloc() calls in SSLeay now go via
-Malloc(), Free() and Realloc() (except those in crypto/lhash).
-
-If CRYPTO_MDEBUG is defined, these calls are #defined to
-CRYPTO_malloc(), CRYPTO_free() and CRYPTO_realloc().
-If it is not defined, they are #defined to malloc(), free() and realloc().
-
-the CRYPTO_malloc() routines by default just call the underlying library
-functons.
-
-If CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) is called, memory leak detection is
-turned on. CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) turns it off.
-
-When turned on, each Malloc() or Realloc() call is recored along with the file
-and line number from where the call was made. (This is done using the
-lhash library which always uses normal system malloc(3) routines).
-
-void CRYPTO_mem_leaks(BIO *b);
-void CRYPTO_mem_leaks_fp(FILE *fp);
-These both print out the list of memory that has not been free()ed.
-This will probably be rather hard to read, but if you look for the 'top level'
-structure allocation, this will often give an idea as to what is not being
-free()ed. I don't expect people to use this stuff normally.

-Very quickly.
-The ca program uses the ssleay.conf file for most of its configuration
-
-./ca -help
-
- -verbose - Talk alot while doing things
- -config file - A config file. If you don't want to use the
- default config file
- -name arg - The particular CA definition to use
- In the config file, the section to use for parameters. This lets
- multiple setups to be contained in the one file. By default, the
- default_ca variable is looked up in the [ ca ] section. So in the
- shipped ssleay.conf, the CA definition used is CA_default. It could be
- any other name.
- -gencrl days - Generate a new CRL, days is when the next CRL is due
- This will generate a new certificate revocion list.
- -days arg - number of days to certify the certificate for
- When certifiying certificates, this is the number of days to use.
- -md arg - md to use, one of md2, md5, sha or sha1
- -policy arg - The CA 'policy' to support
- I'll describe this later, but there are 2 policies definied in the
- shipped ssleay.conf
- -keyfile arg - PEM RSA private key file
- -key arg - key to decode the RSA private key if it is encrypted
- since we need to keep the CA's RSA key encrypted
- -cert - The CA certificate
- -in file - The input PEM encoded certificate request(s)
- -out file - Where to put the output file(s)
- -outdir dir - Where to put output certificates
- The -out options concatinates all the output certificied
- certificates to one file, -outdir puts them in a directory,
- named by serial number.
- -infiles .... - The last argument, requests to process
- The certificate requests to process, -in is the same.
-
-Just about all the above have default values defined in ssleay.conf.
-
-The key variables in ssleay.conf are (for the pariticular '-name' being
-used, in the default, it is CA_default).
-
-dir is where all the CA database stuff is kept.
-certs is where all the previously issued certificates are kept.
-The database is a simple text database containing the following tab separated
-fields.
-status: a value of 'R' - revoked, 'E' -expired or 'V' valid.
-issued date: When the certificate was certified.
-revoked date: When it was revoked, blank if not revoked.
-serial number: The certificate serial number.
-certificate: Where the certificate is located.
-CN: The name of the certificate.
-
-The demo file has quite a few made up values it it. The last 2 were
-added by the ca program and are acurate.
-The CA program does not update the 'certificate' file correctly right now.
-The serial field should be unique as should the CN/status combination.
-The ca program checks these at startup. What still needs to be
-wrtten is a program to 'regenerate' the data base file from the issued
-certificate list (and a CRL list).
-
-Back to the CA_default variables.
-
-Most of the variables are commented.
-
-policy is the default policy.
-
-Ok for policies, they define the order and which fields must be present
-in the certificate request and what gets filled in.
-
-So a value of
-countryName = match
-means that the country name must match the CA certificate.
-organizationalUnitName = optional
-The org.Unit,Name does not have to be present and
-commonName = supplied
-commonName must be supplied in the certificate request.
-
-For the 'policy_match' polocy, the order of the attributes in the
-generated certiticate would be
-countryName
-stateOrProvinceName
-organizationName
-organizationalUnitName
-commonName
-emailAddress
-
-Have a play, it sort of makes sense. If you think about how the persona
-requests operate, it is similar to the 'policy_match' policy and the
-'policy_anything' is similar to what versign is doing.
-
-I hope this helps a bit. Some backend scripts are definitly needed to
-update the database and to make certificate revocion easy. All
-certificates issued should also be kept forever (or until they expire?)
-
-hope this helps
-eric (who has to run off an buy some cheap knee pads for the caving in 4

-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.

-Second, how to extract the request and feed the certificate back? We need to

-crl2pkcs7 as of version 0.6.6. Starting with 0.8.0 it it might probably be

-4.) What do do with the cert?
------------------------------
-
-The cert is visible (without restarting MSIE) under the following menu:
-View->Options->Security->Personal certs. You can examine it's contents at
-least partially.
-
-To use it for client authentication you need to use SSL3.0 (fortunately
-SSLeay supports it with 0.8.0). Furthermore MSIE is told to only supports a
-kind of automatic selection of certs (I personally wasn't able to test it
-myself). But there is a requirement that the issuer of the server cert and
-the issuer of the client cert needs to be the same (according to a developer
-from MS). Which means: you need may more then one cert to talk to all
-servers...
-
-I'm sure we will get a bit more experience after ApacheSSL is available for
-SSLeay 0.8.8.
-
-
-I hope you enjoyed reading and that in future questions on this topic will
-rarely appear on ssl-users@moncom.com ;-)

-This document briefly describes how to use SSLeay to implement a
-certificate authority capable of dynamically serving up client
-certificates for version 3.0 beta 5 (and presumably later) versions of
-the Netscape Navigator. 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. Doe
-Email = jxdoe@someorg.com
-SPKAC = MIG0MGAwXDANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAANLADBIAkEAwmk6FMJ4uAVIYbcvIOx5+bDGTfvL8X5gE+R67ccMk6rCSGbVQz2cetyQtnI+VIs0NwdD6wjuSuVtVFbLoHonowIDAQABFgAwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEEBQADQQBFZDUWFl6BJdomtN1Bi53mwijy1rRgJ4YirF15yBEDM3DjAQkKXHYOIX+qpz4KXKnl6EYxTnGSFL5wWt8X2iyx
-
-- You execute the ca command (either from a CGI program run out of
- the web server, or as a later manual task) giving it the above
- file as input. 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 form should contain
- fields for all of the required or optional fields in ssleay.conf.
- The form must contain a KEYGEN tag somewhere with at least a NAME
- attribute.
-
-2 Create a CGI program to process the form input submitted by the
- browser. 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. This version also
- has tolerance of being passed NULL pointers.

-
-My Random number library.
-
-These routines can be used to generate pseudo random numbers and can be
-used to 'seed' the pseudo random number generator (RNG). 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.

-
-The RSA encryption and utility routines.
-
-The RSA routines are built on top of a big number library (the BN library).
-There are support routines in the X509 library for loading and manipulating
-the various objects in the RSA library. 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 number of bytes
- written into 'to' is returned. -1 is returned on an error. The
- operation performed is
- to = from^rsa->e mod rsa->n.
-
-int RSA_private_encrypt(
-int from_len;
-unsigned char *from
-unsigned char *to
-RSA *rsa);
- This function implements RSA private encryption, the rsa variable
- should 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 number of bytes
- written into 'to' is returned. -1 is returned on an error. The
- operation performed is
- to = from^rsa->d mod rsa->n.
-
-int RSA_public_decrypt(
-int from_len;
-unsigned char *from
-unsigned char *to
-RSA *rsa);
- This function implements RSA public decryption, the rsa variable
- should be a public key (but can be a private key). 'from_len'
- bytes are taken from 'from' and decrypted. The decrypted data is
- put into 'to'. The number of bytes encrypted is returned. -1 is
- returned to indicate an error. The operation performed is
- to = from^rsa->e mod rsa->n.
-
-int RSA_private_decrypt(
-int from_len;
-unsigned char *from
-unsigned char *to
-RSA *rsa);
- This function implements RSA private decryption, the rsa variable
- should be a private key. 'from_len' bytes are taken
- from 'from' and decrypted. The decrypted data is
- put into 'to'. The number of bytes encrypted is returned. -1 is
- returned to indicate an error. 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 performs
- n=n^p mod rsa->n except that it uses the 5 extra variables in the
- RSA structure to make this more efficient.
-
-RSA *RSA_generate_key(
-int bits;
-unsigned long e;
-void (*callback)();
-char *cb_arg;
- This routine is used to generate RSA private keys. 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). When finally accepted as one
- of the 2 primes, callback(3,num4++,cb_arg).
-
-
-==== rsaref.doc ========================================================
-
-This package can be compiled to use the RSAref library.
-This library is not allowed outside of the USA but inside the USA it is
-claimed by RSA to be the only RSA public key library that can be used
-besides BSAFE..
-
-There are 2 files, rsaref/rsaref.c and rsaref/rsaref.h that contain the glue
-code to use RSAref. These files were written by looking at the PGP
-source code and seeing which routines it used to access RSAref.
-I have also been sent by some-one a copy of the RSAref header file that
-contains the library error codes.
-
-[ Jun 1996 update - I have recently gotten hold of RSAref 2.0 from
- South Africa and have been doing some performace tests. ]
-
-They have now been tested against the recently announced RSAEURO
-library.
-
-There are 2 ways to use SSLeay and RSAref. First, to build so that
-the programs must be linked with RSAref, add '-DRSAref' to CFLAG in the top
-level makefile and -lrsaref (or where ever you are keeping RSAref) to
-EX_LIBS.
-
-To build a makefile via util/mk1mf.pl to do this, use the 'rsaref' option.
-
-The second method is to build as per normal and link applications with
-the RSAglue library. The correct library order would be
-cc -o cmd cmd.o -lssl -lRSAglue -lcrypto -lrsaref -ldes
-The RSAglue library is built in the rsa directory and is NOT
-automatically installed.
-
-Be warned that the RSAEURO library, that is claimed to be compatible
-with RSAref contains a different value for the maximum number of bits
-supported. This changes structure sizes and so if you are using
-RSAEURO, change the value of RSAref_MAX_BITS in rsa/rsaref.h
-
-
-==== s_mult.doc ========================================================
-
-s_mult is a test program I hacked up on a Sunday for testing non-blocking
-IO. 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.

- * this does not matter much but when I do SSLv3, this will allow a mechanism
- * for the server/client to record the information needed to decode
- * the traffic that went over the wire, even when using Diffie-Hellman */
-PEM_write_SSL_SESSION(SSL_get_session(ssl),stdout,....)
-
-Lets 'connect' back to the caller using the same session id.
-
-ssl2=SSL_new(ctx);
-fd2=connect(them);
-SSL_set_fd(ssl2,fd2);
-SSL_set_session(ssl2,SSL_get_session(ssl));
-SSL_connect(ssl2);
-
-/* what the hell, lets accept no more connections using this session */
-SSL_CTX_remove_session(SSL_get_SSL_CTX(ssl),SSL_get_session(ssl));
-
-/* we could have just as easily used ssl2 since they both are using the
- * same session.
- * You will note that both ssl and ssl2 are still using the session, and
- * the SSL_SESSION structure will be free()ed when both ssl and ssl2
- * finish using the session. Also note that you could continue to initiate
- * connections using this session by doing SSL_get_session(ssl) to get the
- * existing session, but SSL_accept() will not be able to find it to
- * use for incoming connections.
- * Of corse, the session will timeout at the far end and it will no
- * longer be accepted after a while. The time and timeout are ignored except
- * by SSL_accept(). */
-
-/* Since we have had our server running for 10 weeks, and memory is getting
- * short, perhaps we should clear the session cache to remove those
- * 100000 session entries that have expired. Some may consider this
- * a memory leak :-) */
-
-SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(ctx,time(NULL));
-
-/* Ok, after a bit more time we wish to flush all sessions from the cache
- * so that all new connections will be authenticated and incure the
- * public key operation overhead */
-
-SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(ctx,0);
-
-/* As a final note, to copy everything to do with a SSL, use */
-SSL_copy_session_id(SSL *to,SSL *from);
-/* as this also copies the certificate and RSA key so new session can
- * be established using the same details */

-==== sha.doc ========================================================
-
-The SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) library.
-SHA is a message digest algorithm that can be used to condense an arbitrary
-length message down to a 20 byte hash. 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.

-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. I should mention
-that people should 'try' to use either x86-lnx.s (elf), x86-lnxa.s or
-x86-sol.s for any x86 based unix they are building on. The only problems
-with be with syntax but the performance gain is quite large, especially for
-servers. The code is very simple, you just need to modify the 'header'.
-
-The message is, if you are stuck using RSAref, the RSA performance will be
-bad. Considering the code was compiled for a pentium, the 486DX66 number
-would indicate 'Use RSAref and turn you Pentium 100 into a 486DX66' :-).
-[ As of verson 0.6.1, it would be correct to say 'turn you pentium 100
- into a 486DX33' :-) ]
-
-I won't tell people if the DLL's are using RSAref or my stuff if no-one
-asks :-).
-
-eric
-
-PS while I know I could speed things up further, I will probably not do
- so due to the effort involved. I did do some timings on the
- SSLeay bignum format -> RSAref number format conversion that occurs
- each time RSAref is used by SSLeay, and the numbers are trivial.
- 0.00012s a call for 512bit vs 0.149s for the time spent in the function.
- 0.00018s for 1024bit vs 0.938s. Insignificant.
- So the 'way to go', to support faster RSA libraries, if people are keen,
- is to write 'glue' code in a similar way that I do for RSAref and send it
- to me :-).
- My base library still has the advantage of being able to operate on
- any size numbers, and is not that far from the performance from the
- leaders in the field. (-%30?)
- [ Well as of 0.6.1 I am now the leader in the filed on x86 (we at
- least very close :-) ]
-
- I suppose I should also mention some other numbers RSAref numbers, again
- on my Pentium.
- DES CBC EDE-DES MD5
- RSAref linux 830k/s 302k/s 4390k/s
- SSLeay linux 855k/s 319k/s 10025k/s

- SSLeay w31 378k/s 143k/s 2383k/s (fully 16bit)

-==== ssl-ciph.doc ========================================================
-
-This is a quick high level summery of how things work now.
-
-Each SSLv2 and SSLv3 cipher is composed of 4 major attributes plus a few extra
-minor ones.
-
-They are 'The key exchange algorithm', which is RSA for SSLv2 but can also
-be Diffle-Hellman for SSLv3.
-
-An 'Authenticion algorithm', which can be RSA, Diffle-Helman, DSS or
-none.
-
-The cipher
-
-The MAC digest.
-
-A cipher can also be an export cipher and is either an SSLv2 or a
-SSLv3 ciphers.
-
-To specify which ciphers to use, one can either specify all the ciphers,
-one at a time, or use 'aliases' to specify the preference and order for
-the ciphers.
-
-There are a large number of aliases, but the most importaint are
-kRSA, kDHr, kDHd and kEDH for key exchange types.
-
-aRSA, aDSS, aNULL and aDH for authentication
-DES, 3DES, RC4, RC2, IDEA and eNULL for ciphers
-MD5, SHA0 and SHA1 digests
-
-Now where this becomes interesting is that these can be put together to
-specify the order and ciphers you wish to use.
-
-To speed this up there are also aliases for certian groups of ciphers.
-The main ones are
-SSLv2 - all SSLv2 ciphers
-SSLv3 - all SSLv3 ciphers
-EXP - all export ciphers
-LOW - all low strngth ciphers (no export ciphers, normally single DES)
-MEDIUM - 128 bit encryption
-HIGH - Triple DES
-
-These aliases can be joined in a : separated list which specifies to
-add ciphers, move them to the current location and delete them.
-
-A simpler way to look at all of this is to use the 'ssleay ciphers -v' command.
-The default library cipher spec is
-!ADH:RC4+RSA:HIGH:MEDIUM:LOW:EXP:+SSLv2:+EXP
-which means, first, remove from consideration any ciphers that do not
-authenticate. Next up, use ciphers using RC4 and RSA. Next include the HIGH,
-MEDIUM and the LOW security ciphers. Finish up by adding all the export
-ciphers on the end, then 'pull' all the SSLv2 and export ciphers to
-the end of the list.
-
-The results are
-$ ssleay ciphers -v '!ADH:RC4+RSA:HIGH:MEDIUM:LOW:EXP:+SSLv2:+EXP'

-
-I would recoment people use the 'ssleay ciphers -v "text"'
-command to check what they are going to use.
-
-Anyway, I'm falling asleep here so I'll do some more tomorrow.

-SSLeay: a cryptographic kitchen sink.
-
-1st December 1995
-Way back at the start of April 1995, I was looking for a mindless
-programming project. 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.
