Description: Perl extension for one way hash chaining encryption using SHA
This module implements a chaining block cipher using a one way hash. This
method of encryption is the same that is used by radius (RFC2138) and is also
described in Applied Cryptography.
.
Two interfaces are provided in the module. The first is straight block
encryption/decryption the second does base64 mime encoding/decoding of the
encrypted/decrypted blocks.
.
The idea is that the two sides have a shared secret that supplies one of the
keys and a randomly generated block of bytes provides the second key. The
random key is passed in cleartext between the two sides.
.
An example client and server are packaged as modules with this module. They
are used in the tests. They can be found in the examples directory.
