130 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
131 | ||
132 | The EVP cipher routines are a high level interface to certain | |
133 | symmetric ciphers. | |
134 | ||
2cafb1df RL |
135 | EVP_CIPHER_fetch() fetches the cipher implementation for the given |
136 | B<algorithm> from any provider offering it, within the criteria given | |
137 | by the B<properties>. | |
138 | See L<provider(7)/Fetching algorithms> for further information. | |
139 | ||
140 | The returned value must eventually be freed with | |
141 | L<EVP_CIPHER_meth_free(3)>. | |
142 | ||
05fdb8d3 RL |
143 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() creates a cipher context. |
144 | ||
145 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() clears all information from a cipher context | |
146 | and free up any allocated memory associate with it, including B<ctx> | |
147 | itself. This function should be called after all operations using a | |
148 | cipher are complete so sensitive information does not remain in | |
149 | memory. | |
3811eed8 DSH |
150 | |
151 | EVP_EncryptInit_ex() sets up cipher context B<ctx> for encryption | |
2cafb1df RL |
152 | with cipher B<type>. B<type> is typically supplied by a function such |
153 | as EVP_aes_256_cbc(), or a value explicitly fetched with | |
154 | EVP_CIPHER_fetch(). If B<impl> is non-NULL, its implementation of the | |
155 | cipher B<type> is used if there is one, and if not, the default | |
156 | implementation is used. B<key> is the symmetric key to use | |
3811eed8 DSH |
157 | and B<iv> is the IV to use (if necessary), the actual number of bytes |
158 | used for the key and IV depends on the cipher. It is possible to set | |
159 | all parameters to NULL except B<type> in an initial call and supply | |
160 | the remaining parameters in subsequent calls, all of which have B<type> | |
161 | set to NULL. This is done when the default cipher parameters are not | |
162 | appropriate. | |
72b60351 DSH |
163 | |
164 | EVP_EncryptUpdate() encrypts B<inl> bytes from the buffer B<in> and | |
165 | writes the encrypted version to B<out>. This function can be called | |
166 | multiple times to encrypt successive blocks of data. The amount | |
167 | of data written depends on the block alignment of the encrypted data: | |
168 | as a result the amount of data written may be anything from zero bytes | |
5211e094 | 169 | to (inl + cipher_block_size - 1) so B<out> should contain sufficient |
c3a73daf AP |
170 | room. The actual number of bytes written is placed in B<outl>. It also |
171 | checks if B<in> and B<out> are partially overlapping, and if they are | |
172 | 0 is returned to indicate failure. | |
72b60351 | 173 | |
3811eed8 | 174 | If padding is enabled (the default) then EVP_EncryptFinal_ex() encrypts |
f2e5ca84 | 175 | the "final" data, that is any data that remains in a partial block. |
a09474dd RS |
176 | It uses standard block padding (aka PKCS padding) as described in |
177 | the NOTES section, below. The encrypted | |
f2e5ca84 DSH |
178 | final data is written to B<out> which should have sufficient space for |
179 | one cipher block. The number of bytes written is placed in B<outl>. After | |
180 | this function is called the encryption operation is finished and no further | |
181 | calls to EVP_EncryptUpdate() should be made. | |
182 | ||
3811eed8 | 183 | If padding is disabled then EVP_EncryptFinal_ex() will not encrypt any more |
f2e5ca84 | 184 | data and it will return an error if any data remains in a partial block: |
c7497f34 | 185 | that is if the total data length is not a multiple of the block size. |
72b60351 | 186 | |
3811eed8 | 187 | EVP_DecryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptUpdate() and EVP_DecryptFinal_ex() are the |
72b60351 | 188 | corresponding decryption operations. EVP_DecryptFinal() will return an |
f2e5ca84 DSH |
189 | error code if padding is enabled and the final block is not correctly |
190 | formatted. The parameters and restrictions are identical to the encryption | |
191 | operations except that if padding is enabled the decrypted data buffer B<out> | |
192 | passed to EVP_DecryptUpdate() should have sufficient room for | |
193 | (B<inl> + cipher_block_size) bytes unless the cipher block size is 1 in | |
194 | which case B<inl> bytes is sufficient. | |
72b60351 | 195 | |
3811eed8 DSH |
196 | EVP_CipherInit_ex(), EVP_CipherUpdate() and EVP_CipherFinal_ex() are |
197 | functions that can be used for decryption or encryption. The operation | |
198 | performed depends on the value of the B<enc> parameter. It should be set | |
199 | to 1 for encryption, 0 for decryption and -1 to leave the value unchanged | |
200 | (the actual value of 'enc' being supplied in a previous call). | |
201 | ||
05fdb8d3 RL |
202 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_reset() clears all information from a cipher context |
203 | and free up any allocated memory associate with it, except the B<ctx> | |
204 | itself. This function should be called anytime B<ctx> is to be reused | |
205 | for another EVP_CipherInit() / EVP_CipherUpdate() / EVP_CipherFinal() | |
206 | series of calls. | |
3811eed8 DSH |
207 | |
208 | EVP_EncryptInit(), EVP_DecryptInit() and EVP_CipherInit() behave in a | |
d4a43700 | 209 | similar way to EVP_EncryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex() and |
b45497c3 | 210 | EVP_CipherInit_ex() except they always use the default cipher implementation. |
72b60351 | 211 | |
538860a3 RS |
212 | EVP_EncryptFinal(), EVP_DecryptFinal() and EVP_CipherFinal() are |
213 | identical to EVP_EncryptFinal_ex(), EVP_DecryptFinal_ex() and | |
214 | EVP_CipherFinal_ex(). In previous releases they also cleaned up | |
215 | the B<ctx>, but this is no longer done and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_clean() | |
216 | must be called to free any context resources. | |
72b60351 | 217 | |
3f2b5a88 DSH |
218 | EVP_get_cipherbyname(), EVP_get_cipherbynid() and EVP_get_cipherbyobj() |
219 | return an EVP_CIPHER structure when passed a cipher name, a NID or an | |
220 | ASN1_OBJECT structure. | |
221 | ||
222 | EVP_CIPHER_nid() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_nid() return the NID of a cipher when | |
223 | passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> structure. The actual NID | |
224 | value is an internal value which may not have a corresponding OBJECT | |
225 | IDENTIFIER. | |
226 | ||
83f68df3 CPLG |
227 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() enables or disables padding. This |
228 | function should be called after the context is set up for encryption | |
229 | or decryption with EVP_EncryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex() or | |
230 | EVP_CipherInit_ex(). By default encryption operations are padded using | |
231 | standard block padding and the padding is checked and removed when | |
232 | decrypting. If the B<pad> parameter is zero then no padding is | |
233 | performed, the total amount of data encrypted or decrypted must then | |
234 | be a multiple of the block size or an error will occur. | |
f2e5ca84 | 235 | |
3f2b5a88 DSH |
236 | EVP_CIPHER_key_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_key_length() return the key |
237 | length of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> | |
238 | structure. The constant B<EVP_MAX_KEY_LENGTH> is the maximum key length | |
a91dedca DSH |
239 | for all ciphers. Note: although EVP_CIPHER_key_length() is fixed for a |
240 | given cipher, the value of EVP_CIPHER_CTX_key_length() may be different | |
241 | for variable key length ciphers. | |
242 | ||
243 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() sets the key length of the cipher ctx. | |
244 | If the cipher is a fixed length cipher then attempting to set the key | |
245 | length to any value other than the fixed value is an error. | |
3f2b5a88 DSH |
246 | |
247 | EVP_CIPHER_iv_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_iv_length() return the IV | |
248 | length of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX>. | |
249 | It will return zero if the cipher does not use an IV. The constant | |
250 | B<EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH> is the maximum IV length for all ciphers. | |
251 | ||
252 | EVP_CIPHER_block_size() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_block_size() return the block | |
253 | size of a cipher when passed an B<EVP_CIPHER> or B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> | |
14f46560 | 254 | structure. The constant B<EVP_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH> is also the maximum block |
3f2b5a88 DSH |
255 | length for all ciphers. |
256 | ||
257 | EVP_CIPHER_type() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_type() return the type of the passed | |
258 | cipher or context. This "type" is the actual NID of the cipher OBJECT | |
259 | IDENTIFIER as such it ignores the cipher parameters and 40 bit RC2 and | |
41e68ef2 DSH |
260 | 128 bit RC2 have the same NID. If the cipher does not have an object |
261 | identifier or does not have ASN1 support this function will return | |
262 | B<NID_undef>. | |
3f2b5a88 | 263 | |
c750bc08 RL |
264 | EVP_CIPHER_name() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_name() return the name of the passed |
265 | cipher or context. | |
266 | ||
1d2622d4 RL |
267 | EVP_CIPHER_provider() returns an B<OSSL_PROVIDER> pointer to the provider |
268 | that implements the given B<EVP_CIPHER>. | |
269 | ||
3f2b5a88 DSH |
270 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cipher() returns the B<EVP_CIPHER> structure when passed |
271 | an B<EVP_CIPHER_CTX> structure. | |
272 | ||
a91dedca | 273 | EVP_CIPHER_mode() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_mode() return the block cipher mode: |
338ead0f PS |
274 | EVP_CIPH_ECB_MODE, EVP_CIPH_CBC_MODE, EVP_CIPH_CFB_MODE, EVP_CIPH_OFB_MODE, |
275 | EVP_CIPH_CTR_MODE, EVP_CIPH_GCM_MODE, EVP_CIPH_CCM_MODE, EVP_CIPH_XTS_MODE, | |
276 | EVP_CIPH_WRAP_MODE or EVP_CIPH_OCB_MODE. If the cipher is a stream cipher then | |
a91dedca DSH |
277 | EVP_CIPH_STREAM_CIPHER is returned. |
278 | ||
3f2b5a88 DSH |
279 | EVP_CIPHER_param_to_asn1() sets the AlgorithmIdentifier "parameter" based |
280 | on the passed cipher. This will typically include any parameters and an | |
281 | IV. The cipher IV (if any) must be set when this call is made. This call | |
282 | should be made before the cipher is actually "used" (before any | |
283 | EVP_EncryptUpdate(), EVP_DecryptUpdate() calls for example). This function | |
284 | may fail if the cipher does not have any ASN1 support. | |
285 | ||
286 | EVP_CIPHER_asn1_to_param() sets the cipher parameters based on an ASN1 | |
287 | AlgorithmIdentifier "parameter". The precise effect depends on the cipher | |
288 | In the case of RC2, for example, it will set the IV and effective key length. | |
289 | This function should be called after the base cipher type is set but before | |
290 | the key is set. For example EVP_CipherInit() will be called with the IV and | |
291 | key set to NULL, EVP_CIPHER_asn1_to_param() will be called and finally | |
292 | EVP_CipherInit() again with all parameters except the key set to NULL. It is | |
293 | possible for this function to fail if the cipher does not have any ASN1 support | |
294 | or the parameters cannot be set (for example the RC2 effective key length | |
a91dedca DSH |
295 | is not supported. |
296 | ||
297 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl() allows various cipher specific parameters to be determined | |
aa714f3a | 298 | and set. |
3f2b5a88 | 299 | |
5c5eb286 PS |
300 | EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key() generates a random key of the appropriate length |
301 | based on the cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key | |
302 | generation routine to support keys of a specific form. B<Key> must point to a | |
303 | buffer at least as big as the value returned by EVP_CIPHER_CTX_key_length(). | |

8fa4d95e | 365 | =head1 AEAD Interface |
a91dedca | 366 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
367 | The EVP interface for Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) |
368 | modes are subtly altered and several additional I<ctrl> operations are supported | |
369 | depending on the mode specified. | |
a91dedca | 370 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
371 | To specify additional authenticated data (AAD), a call to EVP_CipherUpdate(), |
372 | EVP_EncryptUpdate() or EVP_DecryptUpdate() should be made with the output | |
373 | parameter B<out> set to B<NULL>. | |
a91dedca | 374 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
375 | When decrypting, the return value of EVP_DecryptFinal() or EVP_CipherFinal() |
376 | indicates whether the operation was successful. If it does not indicate success, | |
377 | the authentication operation has failed and any output data B<MUST NOT> be used | |
378 | as it is corrupted. | |
a91dedca | 379 | |
8fa4d95e | 380 | =head2 GCM and OCB Modes |
a91dedca | 381 | |
8fa4d95e | 382 | The following I<ctrl>s are supported in GCM and OCB modes. |

8fa4d95e RT |
388 | Sets the IV length. This call can only be made before specifying an IV. If |
389 | not called a default IV length is used. | |
a91dedca | 390 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
391 | For GCM AES and OCB AES the default is 12 (i.e. 96 bits). For OCB mode the |
392 | maximum is 15. | |
a91dedca | 393 | |
8fa4d95e | 394 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_AEAD_GET_TAG, taglen, tag) |
a91dedca | 395 | |

396 | Writes C<taglen> bytes of the tag value to the buffer indicated by C<tag>. |
397 | This call can only be made when encrypting data and B<after> all data has been | |
398 | processed (e.g. after an EVP_EncryptFinal() call). | |
a91dedca | 399 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
400 | For OCB, C<taglen> must either be 16 or the value previously set via |
401 | B<EVP_CTRL_AEAD_SET_TAG>. | |

8fa4d95e | 403 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_AEAD_SET_TAG, taglen, tag) |
a91dedca | 404 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
405 | Sets the expected tag to C<taglen> bytes from C<tag>. |
406 | The tag length can only be set before specifying an IV. | |
407 | C<taglen> must be between 1 and 16 inclusive. | |
a91dedca | 408 | |
8fa4d95e | 409 | For GCM, this call is only valid when decrypting data. |
a91dedca | 410 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
411 | For OCB, this call is valid when decrypting data to set the expected tag, |
412 | and before encryption to set the desired tag length. | |
a91dedca | 413 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
414 | In OCB mode, calling this before encryption with C<tag> set to C<NULL> sets the |
415 | tag length. If this is not called prior to encryption, a default tag length is | |
416 | used. | |
a91dedca | 417 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
418 | For OCB AES, the default tag length is 16 (i.e. 128 bits). It is also the |
419 | maximum tag length for OCB. | |

426 | few additional requirements and different I<ctrl> values. | |
aa714f3a | 427 | |
8fa4d95e RT |
428 | For CCM mode, the total plaintext or ciphertext length B<MUST> be passed to |
429 | EVP_CipherUpdate(), EVP_EncryptUpdate() or EVP_DecryptUpdate() with the output | |
430 | and input parameters (B<in> and B<out>) set to B<NULL> and the length passed in | |
431 | the B<inl> parameter. | |

8fa4d95e RT |
439 | This call is made to set the expected B<CCM> tag value when decrypting or |
440 | the length of the tag (with the C<tag> parameter set to NULL) when encrypting. | |
441 | The tag length is often referred to as B<M>. If not set a default value is | |
67c81ec3 TN |
442 | used (12 for AES). When decrypting, the tag needs to be set before passing |
443 | in data to be decrypted, but as in GCM and OCB mode, it can be set after | |
444 | passing additional authenticated data (see L<AEAD Interface>). | |

8fa4d95e | 446 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_CCM_SET_L, ivlen, NULL) |

8fa4d95e | 450 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_AEAD_SET_IVLEN, ivlen, NULL) |

8fa4d95e RT |
452 | Sets the CCM nonce (IV) length. This call can only be made before specifying an |

458 | =head2 SIV Mode |
459 | ||
460 | For SIV mode ciphers the behaviour of the EVP interface is subtly | |
461 | altered and several additional ctrl operations are supported. | |
462 | ||
463 | To specify any additional authenticated data (AAD) and/or a Nonce, a call to | |
464 | EVP_CipherUpdate(), EVP_EncryptUpdate() or EVP_DecryptUpdate() should be made | |
465 | with the output parameter B<out> set to B<NULL>. | |
466 | ||
467 | RFC5297 states that the Nonce is the last piece of AAD before the actual | |
468 | encrypt/decrypt takes place. The API does not differentiate the Nonce from | |
469 | other AAD. | |
470 | ||
471 | When decrypting the return value of EVP_DecryptFinal() or EVP_CipherFinal() | |
472 | indicates if the operation was successful. If it does not indicate success | |
473 | the authentication operation has failed and any output data B<MUST NOT> | |
474 | be used as it is corrupted. | |
475 | ||
476 | The following ctrls are supported in both SIV modes. | |
477 | ||
478 | =over 4 | |
479 | ||
480 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_AEAD_GET_TAG, taglen, tag); | |
481 | ||
482 | Writes B<taglen> bytes of the tag value to the buffer indicated by B<tag>. | |
483 | This call can only be made when encrypting data and B<after> all data has been | |
484 | processed (e.g. after an EVP_EncryptFinal() call). For SIV mode the taglen must | |
485 | be 16. | |
486 | ||
487 | =item EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(ctx, EVP_CTRL_AEAD_SET_TAG, taglen, tag); | |
488 | ||
489 | Sets the expected tag to B<taglen> bytes from B<tag>. This call is only legal | |
490 | when decrypting data and must be made B<before> any data is processed (e.g. | |
491 | before any EVP_DecryptUpdate() call). For SIV mode the taglen must be 16. | |
492 | ||
493 | =back | |
494 | ||
495 | SIV mode makes two passes over the input data, thus, only one call to | |
496 | EVP_CipherUpdate(), EVP_EncryptUpdate() or EVP_DecryptUpdate() should be made | |
497 | with B<out> set to a non-B<NULL> value. A call to EVP_Decrypt_Final() or | |
498 | EVP_CipherFinal() is not required, but will indicate if the update | |
499 | operation succeeded. | |

27d56312 MC |
511 | nonce length is 12 bytes (i.e. 96-bits). If a nonce of less than 12 bytes is set |
512 | then the nonce is automatically padded with leading 0 bytes to make it 12 bytes | |
513 | in length. | |

533 | =head1 NOTES |
534 | ||
535 | Where possible the B<EVP> interface to symmetric ciphers should be used in | |
536 | preference to the low level interfaces. This is because the code then becomes | |
75b76068 JW |
537 | transparent to the cipher used and much more flexible. Additionally, the |
538 | B<EVP> interface will ensure the use of platform specific cryptographic | |
539 | acceleration such as AES-NI (the low level interfaces do not provide the | |
540 | guarantee). | |
72b60351 | 541 | |
c7497f34 | 542 | PKCS padding works by adding B<n> padding bytes of value B<n> to make the total |
72b60351 DSH |
543 | length of the encrypted data a multiple of the block size. Padding is always |
544 | added so if the data is already a multiple of the block size B<n> will equal | |
545 | the block size. For example if the block size is 8 and 11 bytes are to be | |
546 | encrypted then 5 padding bytes of value 5 will be added. | |
547 | ||
548 | When decrypting the final block is checked to see if it has the correct form. | |
549 | ||
f2e5ca84 DSH |
550 | Although the decryption operation can produce an error if padding is enabled, |
551 | it is not a strong test that the input data or key is correct. A random block | |
552 | has better than 1 in 256 chance of being of the correct format and problems with | |
553 | the input data earlier on will not produce a final decrypt error. | |
554 | ||
555 | If padding is disabled then the decryption operation will always succeed if | |
556 | the total amount of data decrypted is a multiple of the block size. | |
72b60351 | 557 | |
3811eed8 DSH |
558 | The functions EVP_EncryptInit(), EVP_EncryptFinal(), EVP_DecryptInit(), |
559 | EVP_CipherInit() and EVP_CipherFinal() are obsolete but are retained for | |
560 | compatibility with existing code. New code should use EVP_EncryptInit_ex(), | |
561 | EVP_EncryptFinal_ex(), EVP_DecryptInit_ex(), EVP_DecryptFinal_ex(), | |
562 | EVP_CipherInit_ex() and EVP_CipherFinal_ex() because they can reuse an | |
