=head1 DESCRIPTION

The RSA_padding_xxx_xxx() functions are called from the RSA encrypt,
decrypt, sign and verify functions. Normally they should not be called
from application programs.

However, they can also be called directly to implement padding for other
asymmetric ciphers. RSA_padding_add_PKCS1_OAEP() and
RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() may be used in an application combined
with B<RSA_NO_PADDING> in order to implement OAEP with an encoding
parameter.

RSA_padding_add_xxx() encodes B<fl> bytes from B<f> so as to fit into
B<tlen> bytes and stores the result at B<to>. An error occurs if B<fl>
does not meet the size requirements of the encoding method.

The following encoding methods are implemented:

=over 4

=item PKCS1_type_1

PKCS #1 v2.0 EMSA-PKCS1-v1_5 (PKCS #1 v1.5 block type 1); used for signatures

=item PKCS1_type_2

PKCS #1 v2.0 EME-PKCS1-v1_5 (PKCS #1 v1.5 block type 2)

=item PKCS1_OAEP

PKCS #1 v2.0 EME-OAEP

=item SSLv23

PKCS #1 EME-PKCS1-v1_5 with SSL-specific modification

=item none

simply copy the data

=back

The random number generator must be seeded prior to calling
RSA_padding_add_xxx().
If the automatic seeding or reseeding of the OpenSSL CSPRNG fails due to
external circumstances (see L<RAND(7)>), the operation will fail.

RSA_padding_check_xxx() verifies that the B<fl> bytes at B<f> contain
a valid encoding for a B<rsa_len> byte RSA key in the respective
encoding method and stores the recovered data of at most B<tlen> bytes
(for B<RSA_NO_PADDING>: of size B<tlen>)
at B<to>.

For RSA_padding_xxx_OAEP(), B<p> points to the encoding parameter
of length B<pl>. B<p> may be B<NULL> if B<pl> is 0.

For RSA_padding_xxx_OAEP_mgf1(), B<md> points to the md hash,
if B<md> is B<NULL> that means md=sha1, and B<mgf1md> points to
the mgf1 hash, if B<mgf1md> is B<NULL> that means mgf1md=md.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

The RSA_padding_add_xxx() functions return 1 on success, 0 on error.
The RSA_padding_check_xxx() functions return the length of the
recovered data, -1 on error. Error codes can be obtained by calling
L<ERR_get_error(3)>.

=head1 WARNING

The result of RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_2() is a very sensitive
information which can potentially be used to mount a Bleichenbacher
padding oracle attack. This is an inherent weakness in the PKCS #1
v1.5 padding design. Prefer PKCS1_OAEP padding. If that is not
possible, the result of RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_2() should be
checked in constant time if it matches the expected length of the
plaintext and additionally some application specific consistency
checks on the plaintext need to be performed in constant time.
If the plaintext is rejected it must be kept secret which of the
checks caused the application to reject the message.
Do not remove the zero-padding from the decrypted raw RSA data
which was computed by RSA_private_decrypt() with B<RSA_NO_PADDING>,
as this would create a small timing side channel which could be
used to mount a Bleichenbacher attack against any padding mode
including PKCS1_OAEP.
