\chapter{Dependencies}

\section{Operating Systems}

\luaossl targets modern POSIX-conformant systems. A Windows port is feasible and patches welcome.
Note however that the module employs the POSIX thread API, POSIX dlopen, and the non-POSIX dladdr interface to protect OpenSSL in threaded environments.

\section{Libraries}

\subsection{Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3}

\luaossl targets Lua 5.1 and above.

\subsection{OpenSSL}

\luaossl targets modern OpenSSL versions as installed on OS X, Linux, Solaris, OpenBSD, and similar platforms.

\subsection{pthreads}

Because it's not possible to detect threading use at runtime, or to \emph{safely} and dynamically enable locking, this protection is builtin by default. At present the module only understands the POSIX threading API.

\paragraph{Linking}
Note that on some systems, such as NetBSD and FreeBSD, the loading application must be linked against pthreads (using -lpthread or -pthread). It is not enough for the \luaossl module to pull in the dependency at load time. In particular, if using the stock Lua interpreter, it must have been linked against pthreads at build time. Add the appropriate linker flag to MYLIBS in lua-5.2.x/src/Makefile.

\subsection{libdl}

In multithreaded environments the module will initialize OpenSSL mutexes if they've not already been initialized. If the mutexes are initialized then the module must pin itself in memory to prevent unloading by the Lua garbage collector. The module first uses the non-standard but widely supported dladdr routine to derive the module's load path, and then increments the reference count to the module using dlopen. This is the safest and most portable method that I'm aware of.

\section{GNU Make}

The Makefile requires GNU Make, usually installed as gmake on platforms other than Linux or OS X. The actual \texttt{Makefile} proxies to \texttt{GNUmakefile}. As long as \texttt{gmake} is installed on non-GNU systems you can invoke your system's \texttt{make}.

\chapter{Installation}

All the C modules are built into a single core C library. The core routines are then wrapped and extended through Lua modules. Because there several extant versions of Lua often used in parallel on the same system, there are individual targets to build and install for each supported Lua version. The targets \texttt{all} and \texttt{install} will attempt to build and install both Lua 5.1 and 5.2 modules.

Note that building and installation and can accomplished in a single step by simply invoking one of the install targets with all the necessary variables defined.

\section{Building}

There is no separate \texttt{./configure} step. System introspection occurs during compile-time. However, the ``\texttt{configure}'' make target can be used to cache the build environment so one needn't continually use a long command-line invocation.

All the common GNU-style compiler variables are supported, including \texttt{CC}, \texttt{CPPFLAGS}, \texttt{CFLAGS}, \texttt{LDFLAGS}, and \texttt{SOFLAGS}. Note that you can specify the path to Lua 5.1, Lua 5.2, and Lua 5.3 include headers at the same time in CPPFLAGS; the build system will work things out to ensure the correct headers are loaded when compiling each version of the module.

\chapter{Usage}

\section{Modules}

\begin{Module}{openssl}

Binds various global interfaces, including version and build information.

\subsubsection[\fn{openssl[]}]{\fn{openssl[]}}

Table of various compile-time constant values. See also \fn{openssl.version}.

\begin{ctabular}{ c | p{12cm} }
name & description \\\hline
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_VERSION\_NUMBER}} & OpenSSL version as an integer. \\
\small{\texttt{LIBRESSL\_VERSION\_NUMBER}} & LibreSSL version as an integer. \\
\small{\texttt{NO\_[feature]}} & If defined, signals that this installation of OpenSSL was compiled without [feature]. \\
\end{ctabular}


\subsubsection[\fn{openssl.version}]{\fn{openssl.version($info$)}}

Returns information about the run-time version of OpenSSL, as opposed to the compile-time version used to build the Lua module. If $info$ is not specified, returns the version number as an integer. Otherwise, $info$ may be one of the following constants.

\begin{ctabular}{ c | p{12cm} }
name & description \\\hline
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_VERSION}} & OpenSSL version description as a string. \\
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_CFLAGS}} & Description of compiler flags used to build OpenSSL as a string. \\
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_BUILT\_ON}} & Compilation date description as a string. \\
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_PLATFORM}} & Platform description as a string. \\
\small{\texttt{SSLEAY\_DIR}} & OpenSSL installation directory description as a string. \\
\end{ctabular}

\subsubsection[\fn{openssl.extensionSupported}]{\fn{openssl.extensionSupported($ext\_type$)}}

Returns a boolean indicating if the extension $ext\_type$ is handled internally by OpenSSL.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.bignum}

\module{openssl.bignum} binds OpenSSL's libcrypto bignum library. It supports all the standard arithmetic operations. Regular number operands in a mixed arithmetic expression are upgraded as-if \method{bignum.new} was used explicitly. The \fn{\_\_tostring} metamethod generates a decimal encoded represention.

\subsubsection[\fn{bignum.new}]{\fn{bignum.new($number$)}}

Wraps the sign and integral part of $number$ as a bignum object, discarding any fractional part.

\subsubsection[\fn{bignum.interpose}]{\fn{bignum.interpose($name$, $function$)}}

Add or interpose a bignum class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.pkey}

\module{openssl.pkey} binds OpenSSL's libcrypto public-private key library. The \fn{\_\_tostring} metamethod generates a PEM encoded representation of the public key---excluding the private key.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey.new}]{\fn{pkey.new($string$[, $format$])}}

Initializes a new pkey object from the PEM- or DER-encoded key in $string$. $format$ defaults to ``*'', which means to automatically test the input encoding. If $format$ is explicitly ``PEM'' or ``DER'', then only that decoding format is used.

On failure throws an error.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey.new}]{\fn{pkey.new\{ $\ldots$ \}}}

Generates a new pkey object according to the specified parameters.

\begin{ctabular}{ c | c | p{5in}}
field & type:default & description\\\hline
.type & string:RSA & public key algorithm---``RSA'', ``DSA'', ``EC'', ``DH'', or an internal OpenSSL identifier of a subclass of one of those basic types \\

.bits & number:1024 & private key size \\

.exp & number:65537 & RSA exponent \\

.generator & number:2 & Diffie-Hellman generator \\

.dhparam & string & PEM encoded string with precomputed DH parameters \\

.curve & string:prime192v1 & for elliptic curve keys, the OpenSSL string identifier of the curve
\end{ctabular}

The DH parameters ``dhparam'' will be generated on the fly, ``bits'' wide. This is a slow process, and especially for larger sizes, you would precompute those; for example: ``openssl dhparam -2 -out dh-2048.pem -outform PEM 2048''. Using the field ``dhparam'' overrides the ``bits'' field.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey.interpose}]{\fn{pkey.interpose($name$, $function$)}}

Add or interpose a pkey class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:type}]{\fn{pkey:type()}}

Returns the OpenSSL string identifier for the type of key.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:setPublicKey}]{\fn{pkey:setPublicKey($string$[, $format$])}}

Set the public key component to that described by the PEM- or DER-encoded public key in $string$. $format$ is as described in \fn{openssl.pkey.new}---``PEM'', ``DER'', or ``*'' (default).

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:setPrivateKey}]{\fn{pkey:setPrivateKey($string$[, $format$])}}

Set the private key component to that described by the PEM encoded private key in $string$. $format$ is as described in \fn{openssl.pkey.new}.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:sign}]{\fn{pkey:sign($digest$)}}

Sign data which has been consumed by the specified \module{openssl.digest} $digest$. Digests and keys are not all interchangeable.

Returns the signature as an opaque binary string\footnote{Elliptic curve signatures are two X.509 DER-encoded numbers, for example, while RSA signatures are encrypted DER structures.} on success, and throws an error otherwise.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:verify}]{\fn{pkey:verify($signature$, $digest$)}}

Verify the string $signature$ as signing the document consumed by \module{openssl.digest} $digest$. See the :sign method for constraints on the format and type of the parameters.

Returns true on success, false for properly formatted but invalid signatures, and throws an error otherwise. Because the structure of the signature is opaque and not susceptible to sanity checking before passing to OpenSSL, an application should always be prepared for an error to be thrown when verifying untrusted signatures. OpenSSL, of course, should be able to handle all malformed inputs. But the module does not attempt to differentiate local system errors from errors triggered by malformed signatures because the set of such errors may change in the future.

\subsubsection[\fn{pkey:toPEM}]{\fn{pkey:toPEM($which$[, $which$])}}

Returns the PEM encoded string representation(s) of the specified key component. $which$ must be one of ``public'', ``PublicKey'', ``private'', or ``PrivateKey''. For the two argument form, returns two values.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.x509.name}

Binds the X.509 distinguished name OpenSSL ASN.1 object, used for representing certificate subject and issuer names.

\subsubsection[\fn{name.new}]{\fn{name.new()}}

Add or interpose a name class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\subsubsection[\fn{name:add}]{\fn{name:add($type$, $value$)}}

Add a distinguished name component. $type$ is the OpenSSL string identifier of the component type---short, long, or OID forms. $value$ is the string value of the component. DN components are free-form, and are encoded raw.

\subsubsection[\fn{name:all}]{\fn{name:all()}}

Returns a table array of the distinguished name components. Each element is a table with four fields:

\begin{tabular}{ l | l}
field & description\\\hline
.sn & short name identifier, if available\\
.ln & long name identifier, if available\\
.id & OID identifier\\
.blob & raw string value of the component
\end{tabular}

Returns an empty altname object.

\subsubsection[\fn{altname.interpose}]{\fn{altname.interpose($name$, $function$)}}

Add or interpose an altname class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\subsubsection[\fn{altname:add}]{\fn{altname:add($type$, $value$)}}

Add an alternative name. $type$ must specify one of the five basic types identified by ``RFC822Name'', ``RFC822'', ``email'', ``UniformResourceIdentifier'', ``URI'', ``DNSName'', ``DNS'', ``IPAddress'', ``IP'', or ``DirName''.

For all types except ``DirName'', $value$ is a string acceptable to OpenSSL's sanity checks. For an IP address, $value$ must be parseable by the system's \fn{inet\_pton} routine, as IP addresses are stored as raw 4- or 16-byte octets. ``DirName'' takes an \module{openssl.x509.name} object.

\subsubsection[\fn{name:\_\_pairs}]{\fn{name:\_\_pairs()}}

Returns a key-value iterator over the alternative names. The key is one of ``email'', ``URI'', ``DNS'', ``IP'', or ``DirName''. The value is the string representation of the name.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.x509.extension}

Binds the X.509 extension OpenSSL object.

\subsubsection[\fn{extension.new}]{\fn{extension.new($name$, $value$ [, $data$])}}

Returns a new X.509 extension.
If $value$ is the string ``DER'' or ``critical,DER'', then $data$ is an ASN.1-encoded octet string.
Otherwise, $name$ and $value$ are plain text strings in \href{https://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/x509v3_config.html#ARBITRARY_EXTENSIONS}{OpenSSL's arbitrary extension format}; and if specified, $data$ is either an OpenSSL configuration string defining any referenced identifiers in $value$, or a table with members:

\begin{ctabular}{ l | l | p{8cm} }
field & type:default & description\\\hline
.db & string:$nil$ & OpenSSL configuration string\\
.issuer & \module{openssl.x509}:$nil$ & issuer certificate\\
.subject & \module{openssl.x509}:$nil$ & subject certificate\\
.request & \module{openssl.x509.csr}:$nil$ & certificate signing request\\
.crl & \module{openssl.x509.crl}:$nil$ & certificate revocation list\\
.flags & integer:$0$ & a bitwise combination of flags
\end{ctabular}

\subsubsection[\fn{extension.interpose}]{\fn{extension.interpose($name$, $function$)}}

Add or interpose an extension class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\subsubsection[\fn{extension:getID}]{\fn{extension:getID()}}

Returns the ASN.1 OID as a plain text string.

\subsubsection[\fn{extension:getName}]{\fn{extension:getName()}}

Returns a more human-readable name as a plain text string in the following order of preference: OpenSSL's short name, OpenSSL's long name, ASN.1 OID.

Returns the current maximum verification depth.

\subsubsection[\fn{verify\_param:setAuthLevel}]{\fn{verify\_param:setAuthLevel($auth\_level$)}}

Sets the authentication security level to $auth\_level$. The authentication security level determines the acceptable signature and public key strength when verifying certificate chains. For a certificate chain to validate, the public keys of all the certificates must meet the specified security level. The signature algorithm security level is not enforced for the chain's trust anchor certificate, which is either directly trusted or validated by means other than its signature. See \href{https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man3/SSL_CTX_set_security_level.html}{$SSL\_CTX\_set\_security\_level(3)$} for the definitions of the available levels. The default security level is -1, or "not set". At security level 0 or lower all algorithms are acceptable. Security level 1 requires at least 80-bit-equivalent security and is broadly interoperable, though it will, for example, reject MD5 signatures or RSA keys shorter than 1024 bits.

\emph{Only supported since OpenSSL 1.1.0.}

\subsubsection[\fn{context:setEphemeralKey}]{\fn{context:setEphemeralKey($key$)}}

Sets \module{openssl.pkey} object $key$ as the ephemeral key during key exchanges which use that particular key type. Typically $key$ will be either a Diffie-Hellman or Elliptic Curve key.

\emph{In older version of OpenSSL, in order to configure an SSL server to support an ephemeral key exchange cipher suite (i.e. DHE-* and ECDHE-*), the application must explicitly set the ephemeral keys. Simply enabling the cipher suite is not sufficient. The application can statically generate Diffie-Hellman public key parameters, and many servers ship with such a key compiled into the software. Elliptic curve keys are necessarily static, and instantiated by curve name\footnote{OpenSSL < 1.0.2 only supports a single curve, \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Comparison\_of\_TLS\_implementations&oldid=629779090\#Supported\_elliptic\_curves}{according to Wikipedia} the most widely supported curve is prime256v1, so to enable ECDHE-*, applications can simply do \texttt{ctx:setEphemeralKey(pkey.new\{ type = ``EC'', curve = ``prime256v1'' \})}. For OpenSSL versions >= 1.0.2, see \fn{context:setGroups} instead. To achieve Perfect Forward Secrecy for ECDHE-*, applications must also do \texttt{ctx:setOptions(context.OP\_SINGLE\_ECDH\_USE)}. The \texttt{ctx} object must then be used to configure each SSL session, such as by passing it to \fn{cqueues.socket:starttls()}.}.}

\emph{In addition, to attain Perfect Forward Secrecy the options \texttt{OP\_SINGLE\_DH\_USE} and \texttt{OP\_SINGLE\_ECDH\_USE} must be set so that OpenSSL discards and regenerates the secret keying parameters for each key exchange.}

\emph{Only supported since OpenSSL 1.0.2.}

\subsubsection[\fn{context:setHostNameCallback}]{\fn{context:setHostNameCallback($cb$)}}

Sets the callback used to process the SNI in a ClientHello. $cb$ should be a function that one argument: a \module{openssl.ssl} object; it should return $true$ to indicate success, $false$ if no acknowledgement should be send to the client, or $nil$ and an integer to send an error to the peer.

If version is $2$ then the extensions in the array must consist of a 4-byte context, a 2-byte Extension Type, a 2-byte length, and then length bytes of extension\_data. The context and type values have the same meaning as for \fn{context:addCustomExtension}. If serverinfo is being loaded for extensions to be added to a Certificate message, then the extension will only be added for the first certificate in the message (which is always the end-entity certificate).

\emph{Only supported since OpenSSL 1.0.2, ServerInfo version 2 is only supported since OpenSSL 1.1.1}

\subsubsection[\fn{context:useServerInfoFile}]{\fn{context:useServerInfoFile($file$)}}

EXT\_TLS\_ONLY & The extension is only allowed in TLS \\
EXT\_DTLS\_ONLY & The extension is only allowed in DTLS \\

$add\_cb$ should be a function with signature \fn{add\_cb($ssl$, $ext\_type$, $ext\_context$, $x509$, $chainidx$)}; it will be called from the relevant context to allow you to insert extension data.
It receives the $ssl$ object of the connection, the $ext\_type$ you registered the callback for, the current $context$ and, for only some contexts, the current \module{openssl.x509} certificate and chain index (as an integer). You should return the extension data as a string, $false$ if you don't want to add your extension, or $nil$ and an optional integer specifying the TLS error code to raise an error.

$parse\_cb$ should be a function with signature \fn{parse\_cb($ssl$, $ext\_type$, $ext\_context$, $data$, $x509$, $chainidx$)}; it will be called from the relevant context to allow you to parse extension data.

Only the $type$ ``ocsp'' is currently supported, this is used by a client to request that a server sends a stapled OCSP response as part of the TLS handshake.

See also: \fn{context:setTLSextStatusType()}

\subsubsection[\fn{ssl:getTLSextStatusType}]{\fn{ssl:getTLSextStatusType()}}

Add or interpose a cipher class method. Returns the previous method, if any.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher.new}]{\fn{cipher.new($type$)}}

Return a new, uninitialized cipher instance. $type$ is a string suitable for passing to the OpenSSL routine EVP\_get\_cipherbyname, typically of a form similar to ``AES-128-CBC''.

The cipher is uninitialized because some algorithms support or require additional \textit{ad hoc} parameters before key initialization. The API still allows one-shot encryption like ``cipher.new(type):encrypt(key, iv):final(plaintext)''.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:encrypt}]{\fn{cipher:encrypt($key$ [, $iv$] [, $padding$])}}

Initialize the cipher in encryption mode. $key$ and $iv$ are binary strings with lengths equal to that required by the cipher instance as configured. In other words, key stretching and other transformations must be done explicitly. If the mode does not take an IV or equivalent, such as in ECB mode, then it may be nil. $padding$ is a boolean which controls whether PKCS padding is applied, and defaults to true. Returns the cipher instance.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:decrypt}]{\fn{cipher:decrypt($key$ [, $iv$] [, $padding$])}}

Initialize the cipher in decryption mode. $key$, $iv$, and $padding$ are as described in \fn{:encrypt}. Returns the cipher instance.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:update}]{\fn{cipher:update([$string$ [, ...]])}}

Update the cipher instance with the specified string(s). Returns a string on success, or nil and an error message on failure. The returned string may be empty if no blocks can be flushed.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:final}]{\fn{cipher:final([$string$ [, ...]])}}

Update the cipher with the specified string(s). Returns the final output string on success, or nil and an error message on failure. The returned string may be empty if all blocks have already been flushed in prior \fn{:update} calls.

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:getTag}]{\fn{cipher:getTag($len$)}}

Returns the authentication tag for the ciphertext (GCM ciphers only) as a binary string. This method can only be called when encrypting data, and must be called after all data has been processed (i.e. after calling \fn{:final()}).

\subsubsection[\fn{cipher:setTag}]{\fn{cipher:setTag($tag$)}}

Sets the provided binary string as the expected authentication tag for the forthcoming ciphertext (GCM ciphers only). This method can only be called when decrypting data, and must be called before \fn{:final()} to ensure the ciphertext integrity can be verified successfully.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.ocsp.response}

Binds OpenSSL's \texttt{OCSP\_RESPONSE} object.

\subsubsection[\fn{response:getBasic}]{\fn{response:getBasic()}}

\subsubsection[\fn{response:tostring}]{\fn{response:tostring()}}

Returns a human readable description of the OCSP response as a string.

\subsubsection[\fn{response:toPEM}]{\fn{response:toPEM()}}

Returns the OCSP response as a PEM encoded string.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.ocsp.basic}

Binds OpenSSL's \texttt{OCSP\_BASICRESP} object.

\subsubsection[\fn{basic:verify}]{\fn{basic:verify([$certs$ [, $store$[, $flags$]]])}}

Verifies that the OCSP response is signed by a certificate in the \module{openssl.x509.chain} $certs$ or a trusted certificate in \module{openssl.x509.store} $store$.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.rand}

Binds OpenSSL's random number interfaces.

OpenSSL will automatically attempt to seed itself from the system. The only time this could theoretically fail is if /dev/urandom (or similar) were not visible or could not be opened. This might happen if within a chroot jail, or if a file descriptor limit were reached.

\subsubsection[\fn{rand.bytes}]{\fn{rand.bytes($count$)}}

Returns $count$ cryptographically-strong bytes as a single string. Throws an error if OpenSSL could  not complete the request---e.g. because the CSPRNG could not be seeded.

\subsubsection[\fn{rand.ready}]{\fn{rand.ready()}}

Returns a boolean describing whether the CSPRNG has been properly seeded.

In the default CSPRNG engine this routine will also attempt to seed the system if not already. Because seeding only needs to happen once per process to ensure a successful RAND\_bytes invocation\footnote{At least this appeared to be the case when examining the source code of OpenSSL 1.0.1. See md\_rand.c near line 407---``Once we've had enough initial seeding we don't bother to adjust the entropy count, though, because we're not ambitious to provide *information-theoretic* randomness.''}, it may be prudent to assert on rand:ready() at application startup.

\subsubsection[\fn{rand.uniform}]{\fn{rand.uniform([$n$])}}

Returns a cryptographically strong uniform random integer in the interval $[0, n-1]$. If $n$ is omitted, the interval is $[0, 2^{64}-1]$.

The routine operates internally on 64-bit unsigned integers.\footnote{Actually, \texttt{unsigned long long}.} Because neither Lua 5.1 nor 5.2 support 64-bit integers, it's probably best to generate numbers that fit the integral range of your Lua implementation. Lua 5.3 supports a new arithmetic type for 64-bit signed integers in two's-complement representation. This new arithmetic type will be used for argument and return values when available.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.des}

Binds OpenSSL's DES interfaces. These bindings are incomplete. No modern protocol would ever need to use these directly. However, legacy protocols like Windows LAN Manager authentication require some of these low-level interfaces.

\subsubsection[\fn{des.string\_to\_key}]{\fn{des.string\_to\_key($password$)}}

Converts an arbitrary length string, $password$, to a DES key using DES\_string\_to\_key. Returns an 8-byte string.

Note that OpenSSL's DES\_string\_to\_key is not compatible with Windows LAN Manager hashing scheme. Use \fn{des.set\_odd\_parity} instead. See examples/lm.hash.

\subsubsection[\fn{des.set\_odd\_parity}]{\fn{des.set\_odd\_parity($key$)}}

Applies DES\_set\_odd\_parity to the string $key$. Only the first 8 bytes of $key$ are processed. Returns an 8-byte string.

\end{Module}


\begin{Module}{openssl.kdf}

Binds OpenSSL's Key Derivation Function interfaces.

\subsubsection[\fn{kdf.derive}]{\fn{kdf.derive($options$)}}

Derive a key given the table of $options$, different KDF types require different options. Accepted options are:

\begin{ctabular}{ c | c | p{5in}}
field & type & description\\\hline
.type & string & key derivation algorithm---``PBKDF2'', ``id-scrypt'', ``hkdf'', ``TLS-PRF1'' or other depending on your version of OpenSSL \\
.outlen & number & the desired output size \\
.pass & string & password \\
.salt & string & salt \\
.iter & number & iteration count \\
.md & string & digest to use \\
.key & string & key \\
.maxmem\_bytes & number & amount of RAM key derivation may maximally use (in bytes) \\
.secret & string & TLS1-PRF secret \\
.seed & string & TLS1-PRF seed \\
.hkdf\_mode & string & the HKDF mode to use, one of ``extract\_and\_expand'', ``extract\_only'' or ``expand\_only'' \\
.info & string & HKDF info value \\
.N & number & scrypt ``N'' parameter to use \\
.r & number & scrypt ``r'' parameter to use \\
.p & number & scrypt ``p'' parameter to use
\end{ctabular}


\end{Module}
