<span id="Introduction-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">1 Introduction</h2>
<p>Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit easily in more
or less any context: In crypto toolkits for object-oriented languages
(C++, Python, Pike, ...), in applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in
kernel space. In most contexts, you need more than the basic
cryptographic algorithms, you also need some way to keep track of available
algorithms, their properties and variants. You often have some algorithm
selection process, often dictated by a protocol you want to implement.
</p>
<p>And as the requirements of applications differ in subtle and not so
subtle ways, an API that fits one application well can be a pain to use
in a different context. And that is why there are so many different
cryptographic libraries around.
</p>
<p>Nettle tries to avoid this problem by doing one thing, the low-level
crypto stuff, and providing a <em>simple</em> but general interface to it.
In particular, Nettle doesn’t do algorithm selection. It doesn’t do
memory allocation. It doesn’t do any I/O.
</p>
<p>The idea is that one can build several application and context specific
interfaces on top of Nettle, and share the code, test cases, benchmarks,
documentation, etc. Examples are the Nettle module for the Pike
language, and LSH, which both use an object-oriented abstraction on top
of the library.
</p>
<p>This manual explains how to use the Nettle library. It also tries to
provide some background on the cryptography, and advice on how to best
put it to use.

<span id="Conventions-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">3 Conventions</h2>
<p>For each supported algorithm, there is an include file that defines a
<em>context struct</em>, a few constants, and declares functions for
operating on the context. The context struct encapsulates all information
needed by the algorithm, and it can be copied or moved in memory with no
unexpected effects.
</p>
<p>For consistency, functions for different algorithms are very similar,
but there are some differences, for instance reflecting if the key setup
or encryption function differ for encryption and decryption, and whether
or not key setup can fail. There are also differences between algorithms
that don’t show in function prototypes, but which the application must
nevertheless be aware of. There is no big difference between the
functions for stream ciphers and for block ciphers, although they should
be used quite differently by the application.
</p>
<p>If your application uses more than one algorithm of the same type, you
should probably create an interface that is tailor-made for your needs,
and then write a few lines of glue code on top of Nettle.
</p>
<p>By convention, for an algorithm named <code>foo</code>, the struct tag for the
context struct is <code>foo_ctx</code>, constants and functions uses prefixes
like <code>FOO_BLOCK_SIZE</code> (a constant) and <code>foo_set_key</code> (a
function).
</p>
<p>In all functions, strings are represented with an explicit length, of
type <code>size_t</code>, and a pointer of type <code>uint8_t *</code> or
<code>const uint8_t *</code>. For functions that transform one string to
another, the argument order is length, destination pointer and source
pointer. Source and destination areas are usually of the same length.
When they differ, e.g., for <code>ccm_encrypt_message</code>, the length
argument specifies the size of the destination area. Source and
destination pointers may be equal, so that you can process strings in
place, but source and destination areas <em>must not</em> overlap in any
other way.
</p>
<p>Many of the functions lack return value and can never fail. Those
functions which can fail, return one on success and zero on failure.

<p>Nettle actually consists of two libraries, <samp>libnettle</samp> and
<samp>libhogweed</samp>. The <samp>libhogweed</samp> library contains those
functions of Nettle that uses bignum operations, and depends on the GMP
library. With this division, linking works the same for both static and
dynamic libraries.
</p>
<p>If an application uses only the symmetric crypto algorithms of Nettle
(i.e., block ciphers, hash functions, and the like), it’s sufficient to
link with <code>-lnettle</code>. If an application also uses public-key
algorithms, the recommended linker flags are <code>-lhogweed -lnettle
-lgmp</code>. If the involved libraries are installed as dynamic libraries, it
may be sufficient to link with just <code>-lhogweed</code>, and the loader
will resolve the dependencies automatically.

<span id="Compatibility-1"></span><h2 class="chapter">6 Compatibility</h2>
<span id="index-ABI-compatibility"></span>
<span id="index-API-compatibility"></span>
<span id="index-Binary-compatibility"></span>
<p>When you write a program using the Nettle library, it’s desirable to
have it work together not only with exactly the same version of Nettle
you had at hand, but with other current and future versions. If a
different version of Nettle is used at compile time, i.e., you recompile
it using the header and library files belonging to a different version,
we talk about API compatibility (for Application Programming Interface).
If a different version of Nettle isn’t used until link time, we talk
about ABI compatibility (Application Binary Interface) or binary
compatibility. ABI compatibility matters mainly when using dynamic
linking with a shared library. E.g., a user has an executable linking at
run-time with <samp>libnettle.so</samp>, and then updates to a later version
of the shared library, without updating or recompiling the executable.
</p>
<p>Nettle aims to provide backwards compatibility, i.e., a program written
for a particular version of the Nettle library should usually work fine
with later version of the library. Note that the opposite is not
supported: The program should <em>not</em> be expected to work with older
versions of the Nettle library; and ABI breakage can be unobvious. E.g,
the later version may define a new library symbol, and let header files
redefine an old API name as an alias for the new symbol. If the later
version ensures that the old symbol is still defined in the library,
this change is backwards compatible: A program compiled using headers
from the older version can be successfully linked with either version of
the library. But if you compile the same program using headers from the
later version of the library, and attempt to link with the older
version, you’ll get an undefined reference to the new symbol.
</p>
<p>API compatibility is rarely broken; exceptions are noted in the NEWS
file. For example, the key size argument to the function
<code>cast128_set_key</code> was dropped in the Nettle-3.0 release, and all
programs using that function had to be updated to work with the new
version.
</p>
<p>ABI compatibility is broken occasionally. This is also noted in the NEWS
file, and the name of the shared library is updated to prevent
accidental run-time linking with the wrong version. All programs have to
be recompiled before they can link with the new version. Since names are
different, multiple versions can be installed on the same system, with a
mix of programs linking to one version or the other.
</p>
<p>Under some circumstances, it is possible to have a single program
linking dynamically with two binary incompatible versions of the Nettle
library, thanks to the use of symbol versioning. Consider a program
calling functions in both Nettle and GnuTLS. For the direct dependency
on Nettle, the program is linked with a particular version of the Nettle
shared library. GnuTLS uses Nettle internally, but does not expose any
Nettle data structures or the like in its own ABI. In this situation,
the GnuTLS shared library may link with a different version of the
Nettle library. Then both versions of the Nettle library will be loaded
into the program’s address space, and each reference to a symbol will be

<p>Finally, some of Nettle’s symbols are internal. They carry a leading
underscore, and are not declared in installed header files. They can be
used for local or experimental purposes, but programs referring directly
to those symbols get neither API nor ABI compatibility, not even between
minor versions.

<span id="index-Hash-function"></span>
<p>A cryptographic <em>hash function</em> is a function that takes variable
size strings, and maps them to strings of fixed, short, length. There
are naturally lots of collisions, as there are more possible 1MB files
than 20 byte strings. But the function is constructed such that is hard
to find the collisions. More precisely, a cryptographic hash function
<code>H</code> should have the following properties:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt id='index-One_002dway'><span><em>One-way</em><a href='#index-One_002dway' class='copiable-anchor'> ¶</a></span></dt>
<dd><p>Given a hash value <code>H(x)</code> it is hard to find a string <code>x</code>
that hashes to that value.
</p>
</dd>
<dt id='index-Collision_002dresistant'><span><em>Collision-resistant</em><a href='#index-Collision_002dresistant' class='copiable-anchor'> ¶</a></span></dt>
<dd><p>It is hard to find two different strings, <code>x</code> and <code>y</code>, such
that <code>H(x)</code> = <code>H(y)</code>.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Hash functions are useful as building blocks for digital signatures,
message authentication codes, pseudo random generators, association of
unique ids to documents, and many other things.
</p>
<p>The most commonly used hash functions are MD5 and SHA1. Unfortunately,
both these fail the collision-resistance requirement; cryptologists have
found ways to construct colliding inputs. The recommended hash functions
for new applications are SHA2 (with main variants SHA256 and SHA512). At
the time of this writing (Autumn 2015), SHA3 has recently been
standardized, and the new SHA3 and other top SHA3 candidates may also be
reasonable alternatives.

<p>The SHA3 hash functions were specified by NIST in response to weaknesses
in SHA1, and doubts about SHA2 hash functions which structurally are
very similar to SHA1. SHA3 is a result of a competition, where the
winner, also known as Keccak, was designed by Guido Bertoni, Joan
Daemen, Michaël Peeters and Gilles Van Assche. It is structurally very
different from all widely used earlier hash functions. Like SHA2, there
are several variants, with output sizes of 224, 256, 384 and 512 bits
(28, 32, 48 and 64 octets, respectively). In August 2015, it was
formally standardized by NIST, as FIPS 202,
<a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.6028/NIST.FIPS.202">https://dx.doi.org/10.6028/NIST.FIPS.202</a>.
</p>
<p>Note that the SHA3 implementation in earlier versions of Nettle was
based on the specification at the time Keccak was announced as the
winner of the competition, which is incompatible with the final standard
and hence with current versions of Nettle. The <samp>nette/sha3.h</samp>
defines a preprocessor symbol <code>NETTLE_SHA3_FIPS202</code> to indicate
conformance with the standard.

<span id="index-SHAKE"></span>
<p>In addition to those SHA-3 hash functions, Nettle also supports a
SHA-3 extendable-output function (XOF) called SHAKE. Unlike hash
functions, SHAKE can produce an output digest of any desired
length. There are two variants, SHAKE-128 and SHAKE-256, with
different security strengths in terms of collision or preimage
resistance: SHAKE-128 internally uses a SHA-3 hash function with
128-bit security, while SHAKE-256 corresponds to SHA3-256 which
provides 256-bit security.
</p>
<p>To use SHAKE, the context struct needs to be initialized with the
<code>init</code> function and data is hashed using the <code>update</code>
function. Afterwards, a digest can be generated using either the
<code>shake</code> or <code>shake_ouput</code> function, where the former
generates the digest at once and resets the context, while the latter
can be called multiple times to generate the digest in an incremental
manner.
</p>

<p>SM3 is a cryptographic hash function standard adopted by the government of the
People’s Republic of China, which was issued by the Cryptography Standardization
Technical Committee of China on December 17, 2010. The corresponding standard
is GM/T 0004-2012 "SM3 Cryptographic Hash Algorithm".
</p>
<p>SM3 algorithm is a hash algorithm in ShangMi cryptosystems. SM3 is mainly used
for digital signature and verification, message authentication code generation
and verification, random number generation, and the RFC 8998 specification
defines the usage of ShangMi algorithm suite in TLS 1.3, etc. According to the
State Cryptography Administration of China, its security and efficiency are
equivalent to SHA-256.

<p>The hash functions in this section all have some known weaknesses, and
should be avoided for new applications. These hash functions are mainly
useful for compatibility with old applications and protocols. Some are
still considered safe as building blocks for particular constructions,
e.g., there seems to be no known attacks against HMAC-SHA1 or even
HMAC-MD5. In some important cases, use of a “legacy” hash function
does not in itself make the application insecure; if a known weakness is
relevant depends on how the hash function is used, and on the threat
model.

<span id="Cipher-functions-1"></span><h3 class="section">7.2 Cipher functions</h3>
<span id="index-Cipher"></span>
<p>A <em>cipher</em> is a function that takes a message or <em>plaintext</em>
and a secret <em>key</em> and transforms it to a <em>ciphertext</em>. Given
only the ciphertext, but not the key, it should be hard to find the
plaintext. Given matching pairs of plaintext and ciphertext, it should
be hard to find the key.
</p>
<span id="index-Block-Cipher"></span>
<span id="index-Stream-Cipher"></span>
<p>There are two main classes of ciphers: Block ciphers and stream ciphers.
</p>
<p>A block cipher can process data only in fixed size chunks, called
<em>blocks</em>. Typical block sizes are 8 or 16 octets. To encrypt
arbitrary messages, you usually have to pad it to an integral number of
blocks, split it into blocks, and then process each block. The simplest
way is to process one block at a time, independent of each other. That
mode of operation is called <em>ECB</em>, Electronic Code Book mode.
However, using <acronym>ECB</acronym> is usually a bad idea. For a start, plaintext blocks
that are equal are transformed to ciphertext blocks that are equal; that
leaks information about the plaintext. Usually you should apply the
cipher is some “feedback mode”, <em>CBC</em> (Cipher Block Chaining) and
<em>CTR</em> (Counter mode) being two of
of the most popular. See See <a href="#Cipher-modes">Cipher modes</a>, for information on
how to apply <acronym>CBC</acronym> and <acronym>CTR</acronym> with Nettle.
</p>
<p>A stream cipher can be used for messages of arbitrary length. A typical
stream cipher is a keyed pseudo-random generator. To encrypt a plaintext
message of <var>n</var> octets, you key the generator, generate <var>n</var>
octets of pseudo-random data, and XOR it with the plaintext. To decrypt,
regenerate the same stream using the key, XOR it to the ciphertext, and
the plaintext is recovered.
</p>
<p><strong>Caution:</strong> The first rule for this kind of cipher is the
same as for a One Time Pad: <em>never</em> ever use the same key twice.
</p>
<p>A common misconception is that encryption, by itself, implies
authentication. Say that you and a friend share a secret key, and you
receive an encrypted message. You apply the key, and get a plaintext
message that makes sense to you. Can you then be sure that it really was
your friend that wrote the message you’re reading? The answer is no. For
example, if you were using a block cipher in ECB mode, an attacker may
pick up the message on its way, and reorder, delete or repeat some of
the blocks. Even if the attacker can’t decrypt the message, he can
change it so that you are not reading the same message as your friend
wrote. If you are using a block cipher in <acronym>CBC</acronym> mode rather than
ECB, or are using a stream cipher, the possibilities for this sort of
attack are different, but the attacker can still make predictable
changes to the message.
</p>
<p>It is recommended to <em>always</em> use an authentication mechanism in
addition to encrypting the messages. Popular choices are Message
Authentication Codes like <acronym>HMAC-SHA1</acronym> (see <a href="#Keyed-hash-functions">Keyed Hash Functions</a>), or digital signatures like <acronym>RSA</acronym>.
</p>
<p>Some ciphers have so called “weak keys”, keys that results in
undesirable structure after the key setup processing, and should be
avoided. In Nettle, most key setup functions have no return value, but
for ciphers with weak keys, the return value indicates whether or not
the given key is weak. For good keys, key setup returns 1, and for weak
keys, it returns 0. When possible, avoid algorithms that
have weak keys. There are several good ciphers that don’t have any weak
keys.
</p>
<p>To encrypt a message, you first initialize a cipher context for
encryption or decryption with a particular key. You then use the context
to process plaintext or ciphertext messages. The initialization is known
as <em>key setup</em>. With Nettle, it is recommended to use each
context struct for only one direction, even if some of the ciphers use a
single key setup function that can be used for both encryption and
decryption.

<span id="AES-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.2.1 AES</h4>
<span id="index-AES"></span>
<p>AES is a block cipher, specified by NIST as a replacement for
the older DES standard. The standard is the result of a competition
between cipher designers. The winning design, also known as RIJNDAEL,
was constructed by Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijnmen.
</p>
<p>Like all the AES candidates, the winning design uses a block size of 128
bits, or 16 octets, and three possible key-size, 128, 192 and 256 bits
(16, 24 and 32 octets) being the allowed key sizes. It does not have any
weak keys. Nettle defines AES in <samp><nettle/aes.h></samp>, and there is one
context struct for each key size. (Earlier versions of Nettle used a
single context struct, <code>struct aes_ctx</code>, for all key sizes. This
interface kept for backwards compatibility).

<p>ARCFOUR is a historic stream cipher, also known under the trade marked
name RC4, and was a widely used fast stream cipher.
</p>
<p>We do not recommend the use of ARCFOUR; the Nettle implementation is
provided primarily for interoperability with existing applications and
standards.
</p>
<p>One problem is that the key setup of ARCFOUR is quite weak, you should
never use keys with structure, keys that are ordinary passwords, or
sequences of keys like “secret:1”, “secret:2”, <small class="enddots">...</small>. If you
have keys that don’t look like random bit strings, and you want to use
ARCFOUR, always hash the key before feeding it to ARCFOUR.
</p>
<p>Another problem is that the output is distinguishable from random data,
and that the initial bytes of the generated key stream leak information
about the key; for this reason, it was sometimes recommended to discard
the first 512, 768 or 1024 bytes of the key stream.

<p>ARCTWO (also known as the trade marked name RC2) is a block cipher
specified in RFC 2268. Nettle also include a variation of the ARCTWO
set key operation that lack one step, to be compatible with the
reverse engineered RC2 cipher description, as described in a Usenet
post to <code>sci.crypt</code> by Peter Gutmann.
</p>
<p>ARCTWO uses a block size of 64 bits, and variable key-size ranging
from 1 to 128 octets. Besides the key, ARCTWO also has a second
parameter to key setup, the number of effective key bits, <code>ekb</code>.
This parameter can be used to artificially reduce the key size. In
practice, <code>ekb</code> is usually set equal to the input key size.
Nettle defines ARCTWO in <samp><nettle/arctwo.h></samp>.

<span id="Camellia-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.2.5 Camellia</h4>
<span id="index-Camellia"></span>
<p>Camellia is a block cipher developed by Mitsubishi and Nippon Telegraph
and Telephone Corporation, described in <cite>RFC3713</cite>. It is
recommended by some Japanese and European authorities as an alternative
to AES, and it is one of the selected algorithms in the New European
Schemes for Signatures, Integrity and Encryption (NESSIE) project. The
algorithm is patented. The implementation in Nettle is derived from the
implementation released by NTT under the GNU LGPL (v2.1 or later), and
relies on the implicit patent license of the LGPL. There is also a
statement of royalty-free licensing for Camellia at
<a href="https://www.ntt.co.jp/news/news01e/0104/010417.html">https://www.ntt.co.jp/news/news01e/0104/010417.html</a>, but this
statement has some limitations which seem problematic for free software.
</p>
<p>Camellia uses a the same block size and key sizes as AES: The block size
is 128 bits (16 octets), and the supported key sizes are 128, 192, and
256 bits. The variants with 192 and 256 bit keys are identical, except
for the key setup. Nettle defines Camellia in
<samp><nettle/camellia.h></samp>, and there is one context struct for each key
size. (Earlier versions of Nettle used a single context struct,
<code>struct camellia_ctx</code>, for all key sizes. This interface kept for
backwards compatibility).

<p>CAST-128 is a block cipher, specified in <cite>RFC 2144</cite>. It uses a 64
bit (8 octets) block size, and a key size of 128 bits. It is possible,
but discouraged, to use the same algorithm with shorter keys. Nettle
refers to the variant with variable key size as CAST-5. Keys for CAST-5
are zero padded to 128 bits, and with very short keys, less than 80
bits, encryption also uses fewer rounds than CAST128. Nettle defines
cast128 in <samp><nettle/cast128.h></samp>.

<p>DES is the old Data Encryption Standard, specified by NIST. It uses a
block size of 64 bits (8 octets), and a key size of 56 bits. However,
the key bits are distributed over 8 octets, where the least significant
bit of each octet may be used for parity. A common way to use DES is to
generate 8 random octets in some way, then set the least significant bit
of each octet to get odd parity, and initialize DES with the resulting
key.
</p>
<p>The key size of DES is so small that keys can be found by brute force,
using specialized hardware or lots of ordinary work stations in
parallel. One shouldn’t be using plain DES at all today, if one uses
DES at all one should be using “triple DES”, see DES3 below.
</p>
<p>DES also has some weak keys. Nettle defines DES in <samp><nettle/des.h></samp>.

<p>The inadequate key size of DES has already been mentioned. One way to
increase the key size is to pipe together several DES boxes with
independent keys. It turns out that using two DES ciphers is not as
secure as one might think, even if the key size of the combination is a
respectable 112 bits.
</p>
<p>The standard way to increase DES’s key size is to use three DES boxes.
The mode of operation is a little peculiar: the middle DES box is wired
in the reverse direction. To encrypt a block with DES3, you encrypt it
using the first 56 bits of the key, then <em>decrypt</em> it using the
middle 56 bits of the key, and finally encrypt it again using the last
56 bits of the key. This is known as “ede” triple-DES, for
“encrypt-decrypt-encrypt”.
</p>
<p>The “ede” construction provides some backward compatibility, as you get
plain single DES simply by feeding the same key to all three boxes. That
should help keeping down the gate count, and the price, of hardware
circuits implementing both plain DES and DES3.
</p>
<p>DES3 has a key size of 168 bits, but just like plain DES, useless parity
bits are inserted, so that keys are represented as 24 octets (192 bits).
As a 112 bit key is large enough to make brute force attacks
impractical, some applications uses a “two-key” variant of triple-DES.
In this mode, the same key bits are used for the first and the last DES
box in the pipe, while the middle box is keyed independently. The
two-key variant is believed to be secure, i.e. there are no known
attacks significantly better than brute force.
</p>
<p>Naturally, it’s simple to implement triple-DES on top of Nettle’s DES
functions. Nettle includes an implementation of three-key “ede”
triple-DES, it is defined in the same place as plain DES,

<span id="index-Salsa20"></span>
<p>Salsa20 is a fairly recent stream cipher designed by D. J. Bernstein. It
is built on the observation that a cryptographic hash function can be
used for encryption: Form the hash input from the secret key and a
counter, xor the hash output and the first block of the plaintext, then
increment the counter to process the next block (similar to CTR mode,
see <a href="#CTR">Counter mode</a>). Bernstein defined an encryption algorithm, Snuffle,
in this way to ridicule United States export restrictions which treated hash
functions as nice and harmless, but ciphers as dangerous munitions.
</p>
<p>Salsa20 uses the same idea, but with a new specialized hash function to
mix key, block counter, and a couple of constants. It’s also designed
for speed; on x86_64, it is currently the fastest cipher offered by
nettle. It uses a block size of 512 bits (64 octets) and there are two
specified key sizes, 128 and 256 bits (16 and 32 octets).
</p>
<p><strong>Caution:</strong> The hash function used in Salsa20 is <em>not</em>
directly applicable for use as a general hash function. It’s <em>not</em>
collision resistant if arbitrary inputs are allowed, and furthermore,
the input and output is of fixed size.
</p>
<p>When using Salsa20 to process a message, one specifies both a key and a
<em>nonce</em>, the latter playing a similar rôle to the initialization
vector (<acronym>IV</acronym>) used with <acronym>CBC</acronym> or <acronym>CTR</acronym> mode. One
can use the same key for several messages, provided one uses a unique
random <acronym>iv</acronym> for each message. The <acronym>iv</acronym> is 64 bits (8
octets). The block counter is initialized to zero for each message, and
is also 64 bits (8 octets). Nettle defines Salsa20 in
<samp><nettle/salsa20.h></samp>.

<p>Cipher modes of operation specifies the procedure to use when encrypting
a message that is larger than the cipher’s block size. As explained in
See <a href="#Cipher-functions">Cipher functions</a>, splitting the message into blocks and
processing them independently with the block cipher (Electronic Code
Book mode, <acronym>ECB</acronym>), leaks information.
</p>
<p>Besides <acronym>ECB</acronym>, Nettle provides several other modes of operation:
Cipher Block Chaining (<acronym>CBC</acronym>), Counter mode (<acronym>CTR</acronym>), Cipher
Feedback (<acronym>CFB</acronym> and <acronym>CFB8</acronym>), XEX-based tweaked-codebook mode
with ciphertext stealing (<acronym>XTS</acronym>) and a couple of <acronym>AEAD</acronym>
modes (see <a href="#Authenticated-encryption">Authenticated encryption with associated data</a>). <acronym>CBC</acronym> is widely used, but
there are a few subtle issues of information leakage, see, e.g.,
<a href="https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/958563"><acronym>SSH</acronym> <acronym>CBC</acronym>
vulnerability</a>. Today, <acronym>CTR</acronym> is usually preferred over <acronym>CBC</acronym>.
</p>
<p>Modes like <acronym>CBC</acronym>, <acronym>CTR</acronym>, <acronym>CFB</acronym> and <acronym>CFB8</acronym>
provide <em>no</em> message authentication, and should always be used together
with a <acronym>MAC</acronym> (see <a href="#Keyed-hash-functions">Keyed Hash Functions</a>) or signature to
authenticate the message.

<span id="index-CBC-Mode"></span>
<p>When using <acronym>CBC</acronym> mode, plaintext blocks are not encrypted
independently of each other, like in Electronic Cook Book mode. Instead,
when encrypting a block in <acronym>CBC</acronym> mode, the previous ciphertext
block is XORed with the plaintext before it is fed to the block cipher.
When encrypting the first block, a random block called an <em>IV</em>, or
Initialization Vector, is used as the “previous ciphertext block”. The
IV should be chosen randomly, but it need not be kept secret, and can
even be transmitted in the clear together with the encrypted data.
</p>
<p>In symbols, if <code>E_k</code> is the encryption function of a block cipher,
and <code>IV</code> is the initialization vector, then <code>n</code> plaintext blocks
<code>M_1</code>,… <code>M_n</code> are transformed into <code>n</code> ciphertext blocks
<code>C_1</code>,… <code>C_n</code> as follows:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">C_1 = E_k(IV XOR M_1)
C_2 = E_k(C_1 XOR M_2)
…
C_n = E_k(C_(n-1) XOR M_n)

<p>Nettle provides two main functions for applying a block cipher in

<h4 class="subsubsection">7.3.1.2 Cipher-specific functions</h4>
<p>Encryption in <acronym>CBC</acronym> mode (but not decryption!) is inherently
serial. It can pass only one block at a time to the block cipher’s
encrypt function. Optimizations to process several blocks in parallel
can’t be applied, and on platforms where the underlying cipher is fast,
per-function-call overhead, e.g., loading subkeys from memory into
registers, can be significant. Depending on platform and cipher used,
<code>cbc_encrypt</code> can be considerably slower than both
<code>cbc_decrypt</code> and <acronym>CTR</acronym> mode. The second reason for poor
performance can be addressed by having a combined <acronym>CBC</acronym> and
encrypt function, for ciphers where the overhead is significant.

<p>Nettle currently includes such special functions only for AES.

<span id="index-Counter-Mode"></span>
<span id="index-CTR-Mode"></span>
<p>Counter mode (<acronym>CTR</acronym>) uses the block cipher as a keyed
pseudo-random generator. The output of the generator is XORed with the
data to be encrypted. It can be understood as a way to transform a block
cipher to a stream cipher.
</p>
<p>The message is divided into <code>n</code> blocks <code>M_1</code>,…
<code>M_n</code>, where <code>M_n</code> is of size <code>m</code> which may be smaller
than the block size. Except for the last block, all the message blocks
must be of size equal to the cipher’s block size.
</p>
<p>If <code>E_k</code> is the encryption function of a block cipher, <code>IC</code> is
the initial counter, then the <code>n</code> plaintext blocks are
transformed into <code>n</code> ciphertext blocks <code>C_1</code>,…
<code>C_n</code> as follows:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">C_1 = E_k(IC) XOR M_1
C_2 = E_k(IC + 1) XOR M_2
…
C_(n-1) = E_k(IC + n - 2) XOR M_(n-1)
C_n = E_k(IC + n - 1) [1..m] XOR M_n
</pre></div>
<p>The <acronym>IC</acronym> is the initial value for the counter, it plays a
similar rôle as the <acronym>IV</acronym> for <acronym>CBC</acronym>. When adding,
<code>IC + x</code>, <acronym>IC</acronym> is interpreted as an integer, in network
byte order. For the last block, <code>E_k(IC + n - 1) [1..m]</code> means that
the cipher output is truncated to <code>m</code> bytes.

<span id="index-XEX_002dbased-tweaked_002dcodebook-mode-with-ciphertext-stealing"></span>
<span id="index-XTS-Mode"></span>
<p>XEX-based tweaked-codebook mode with ciphertext stealing (<acronym>XTS</acronym>) is
a block mode like (<acronym>CBC</acronym>) but tweaked to be able to encrypt partial
blocks via a technique called ciphertext stealing, where the last complete
block of ciphertext is split and part returned as the last block and part
used as plaintext for the second to last block.
This mode is principally used to encrypt data at rest where it is not possible
to store additional metadata or blocks larger than the plain text. The most
common usage is for disk encryption. Due to the fact that ciphertext expansion
is not possible, data is not authenticated. This mode should not be used where
authentication is critical.
</p>
<p>The message is divided into <code>n</code> blocks <code>M_1</code>,… <code>M_n</code>,
where <code>M_n</code> is of size <code>m</code> which may be smaller than the block size.
XTS always uses a fixed blocksize of 128 bit (16 bytes) length.
</p>
<p>Unlike other modes, the key is double the size of that for the used cipher mode
(for example 256bit for AES-128 and 512bit for AES-256).
</p>
<p><acronym>XTS</acronym> encryption mode operates given:
</p><ul>
<li> A multiplication by a primitive element alpha.
<code>MUL a^j</code> here represents the multiplication, where <code>j</code> is the power
of alpha, and the input value is converted into a 16 bytes array
<code>a_0[k], k = 0,1,..,15</code>. The multiplication is calculated as
<code>a_(j+1)[0] = (2(a_j[0] mod 128)) XOR (135 * floor(a_j[15]/128)</code>
<code>a_(j+1)[k] = (2(a_j[k] mod 128)) XOR (floor(a_j[k-1]/128), k = 1,2,..15</code>
Note that this operation is practically a 1 bit left shift operation with carry
propagating from one byte to the next, and if the last bit shift results in a
carry the decimal value 135 is XORed into the first byte.
</li><li> The encryption key is provided as the <code>Key = K1 | K2</code>, where <code>|</code>
denotes string concatenation.
<code>E_k1</code> is the encryption function of the block cipher using <code>K1</code> as
the key, and <code>E_k2</code> is the same encryption function using <code>K2</code>
</li><li> A 128 bit tweak value is provided as input and is denoted as <code>IV</code>
</li></ul>
<p>The <code>n</code> plaintext blocks are transformed into <code>n</code> ciphertext blocks
<code>C_1</code>,… <code>C_n</code> as follows.
</p>
<p>For a plaintext length that is a perfect multiple of the XTS block size:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">T_1 = E_k2(IV)
C_1 = E_k1(P_1 XOR T_1) XOR T_1
…
T_n = T_(n-1) MUL a
C_n = E_k1(P_n XOR T_n) XOR T_n
</pre></div>
<p>For any other plaintext lengths:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">T_1 = E_k2(IV)
C_1 = E_k1(P_1 XOR T_1) XOR T_1
…
T_(n-2) = T_(n-3) MUL a
C_(n-2) = E_k1(P_(n-2) XOR T_(n-2)) XOR T_(n-2)
T_(n-1) = T_(n-2) MUL a
CC_(n-1) = E_k1(P_(n-1) XOR T_(n-1)) XOR T_(n-1)
T_n = T_(n-1) MUL a
PP = [1..m]Pn | [m+1..128]CC_(n-1)

<span id="Authenticated-encryption-with-associated-data"></span><h3 class="section">7.4 Authenticated encryption with associated data</h3>
<span id="index-AEAD"></span>
<span id="index-Authenticated-encryption"></span>
<p>Since there are some subtle design choices to be made when combining a
block cipher mode with out authentication with a <acronym>MAC</acronym>. In
recent years, several constructions that combine encryption and
authentication have been defined. These constructions typically also
have an additional input, the “associated data”, which is
authenticated but not included with the message. A simple example is an
implicit message number which is available at both sender and receiver,
and which needs authentication in order to detect deletions or replay of
messages. This family of building blocks are therefore called
<acronym>AEAD</acronym>, Authenticated encryption with associated data.
</p>
<p>The aim is to provide building blocks that it is easier for designers of
protocols and applications to use correctly. There is also some
potential for improved performance, if encryption and authentication can
be done in a single step, although that potential is not realized for
the constructions currently supported by Nettle.
</p>
<p>For encryption, the inputs are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> The key, which can be used for many messages.
</li><li> A nonce, which must be unique for each message using the same key.
</li><li> Additional associated data to be authenticated, but not included in the
message.
</li><li> The cleartext message to be encrypted.
</li></ul>
<p>The outputs are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> The ciphertext, of the same size as the cleartext.
</li><li> A digest or “authentication tag”.
</li></ul>
<p>Decryption works the same, but with cleartext and ciphertext
interchanged. All currently supported <acronym>AEAD</acronym> algorithms always
use the encryption function of the underlying block cipher, for both
encryption and decryption.
</p>
<p>Usually, the authentication tag should be appended at the end of the
ciphertext, producing an encrypted message which is slightly longer than
the cleartext. However, Nettle’s low level <acronym>AEAD</acronym> functions
produce the authentication tag as a separate output for both encryption
and decryption.
</p>
<p>Both associated data and the message data (cleartext or ciphertext) can
be processed incrementally. In general, all associated data must be
processed before the message data, and all calls but the last one must
use a length that is a multiple of the block size, although some
<acronym>AEAD</acronym> may implement more liberal conventions. The <acronym>CCM</acronym>
mode is a bit special in that it requires the message lengths up front,
other <acronym>AEAD</acronym> constructions don’t have this restriction.
</p>
<p>The supported <acronym>AEAD</acronym> constructions are Galois/Counter mode
(<acronym>GCM</acronym>), <acronym>EAX</acronym>, ChaCha-Poly1305, and Counter with
<acronym>CBC</acronym>-<acronym>MAC</acronym> (<acronym>CCM</acronym>). There are some weaknesses
in <acronym>GCM</acronym> authentication, see
<a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/BCM/documents/comments/CWC-GCM/Ferguson2.pdf">https://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/BCM/documents/comments/CWC-GCM/Ferguson2.pdf</a>.
<acronym>CCM</acronym> and <acronym>EAX</acronym> use the same building blocks, but the
<acronym>EAX</acronym> design is cleaner and avoids a couple of inconveniences of
<acronym>CCM</acronym>. Therefore, <acronym>EAX</acronym> seems like a good conservative
choice. The more recent ChaCha-Poly1305 may also be an attractive but
more adventurous alternative, in particular if performance is important.

<p>The <acronym>EAX</acronym> mode is an <acronym>AEAD</acronym> mode which combines
<acronym>CTR</acronym> mode encryption, See <a href="#CTR">Counter mode</a>, with a message authentication
based on <acronym>CBC</acronym>, See <a href="#CBC">Cipher Block Chaining</a>. The implementation in Nettle is
restricted to ciphers with a block size of 128 bits (16 octets).
<acronym>EAX</acronym> was defined as a reaction to the <acronym>CCM</acronym> mode,
See <a href="#CCM">Counter with CBC-MAC mode</a>, which uses the same primitives but has some undesirable and
inelegant properties.
</p>
<p><acronym>EAX</acronym> supports arbitrary nonce size; it’s even possible to use
an empty nonce in case only a single message is encrypted for each key.
</p>
<p>Nettle’s support for <acronym>EAX</acronym> consists of a low-level general
interface, some convenience macros, and specific functions for
<acronym>EAX</acronym> using <acronym>AES</acronym>-128 as the underlying cipher. These
interfaces are defined in <samp><nettle/eax.h></samp>

<p>Galois counter mode is an <acronym>AEAD</acronym> constructions combining counter
mode with message authentication based on universal hashing. The main
objective of the design is to provide high performance for hardware
implementations, where other popular <acronym>MAC</acronym> algorithms
(see <a href="#Keyed-hash-functions">Keyed Hash Functions</a>) become a bottleneck for high-speed
hardware implementations. It was proposed by David A. McGrew and John
Viega in 2005, and recommended by NIST in 2007,
<a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-38D/SP-800-38D.pdf">NIST Special Publication 800-38D</a>. It is constructed on top of a block
cipher which must have a block size of 128 bits.
</p>
<p>The authentication in <acronym>GCM</acronym> has some known weaknesses, see
<a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/BCM/documents/comments/CWC-GCM/Ferguson2.pdf">https://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/BCM/documents/comments/CWC-GCM/Ferguson2.pdf</a>.
In particular, don’t use <acronym>GCM</acronym> with short authentication tags.
</p>
<p>Nettle’s support for <acronym>GCM</acronym> consists of a low-level general
interface, some convenience macros, and specific functions for
<acronym>GCM</acronym> using <acronym>AES</acronym> or Camellia as the underlying cipher.
These interfaces are defined in <samp><nettle/gcm.h></samp>

<acronym>GCM</acronym> decryption still uses the encryption function of the
underlying block cipher). To process a new message, using the same key,
call <code>gcm_set_iv</code> with a new <acronym>iv</acronym>.

<span id="index-Counter-with-CBC_002dMAC-Mode"></span>
<span id="index-CCM-Mode"></span>
<p><acronym>CCM</acronym> mode is a combination of counter mode with message
authentication based on cipher block chaining, the same building blocks
as <acronym>EAX</acronym>, see <a href="#EAX">EAX</a>. It is constructed on top of a block cipher
which must have a block size of 128 bits. <acronym>CCM</acronym> mode is
recommended by NIST in
<a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/800-38C/SP800-38C_updated-July20_2007.pdf">NIST Special Publication 800-38C</a>. Nettle’s support for CCM consists of
a low-level general interface, a message encryption and authentication
interface, and specific functions for CCM using AES as the underlying
block cipher. These interfaces are defined in <samp><nettle/ccm.h></samp>.
</p>
<p>In <acronym>CCM</acronym>, the length of the message must be known before
processing. The maximum message size depends on the size of the nonce,
since the message size is encoded in a field which must fit in a single
block, together with the nonce and a flag byte. E.g., with a nonce size
of 12 octets, there are three octets left for encoding the message
length, the maximum message length is <em class='math'>2^24 - 1</em> octets.
</p>
<p><acronym>CCM</acronym> mode encryption operates as follows:
</p><ul>
<li> The nonce and message length are concatenated to create
<code>B_0 = flags | nonce | mlength</code>
</li><li> The authenticated data and plaintext is formatted into the string
<code>B = L(adata) | adata | padding | plaintext | padding</code> with
<code>padding</code> being the shortest string of zero bytes such that the
length of the string is a multiple of the block size, and
<code>L(adata)</code> is an encoding of the length of <code>adata</code>.
</li><li> The string <code>B</code> is separated into blocks <code>B_1</code> ...
<code>B_n</code>
</li><li> The authentication tag <code>T</code> is calculated as
<code>T=0, for i=0 to n, do T = E_k(B_i XOR T)</code>
</li><li> An initial counter is then initialized from the nonce to create
<code>IC = flags | nonce | padding</code>, where <code>padding</code> is the
shortest string of zero bytes such that <code>IC</code> is exactly one block
in length.
</li><li> The authentication tag is encrypted using using <acronym>CTR</acronym> mode:
<code>MAC = E_k(IC) XOR T</code>
</li><li> The plaintext is then encrypted using <acronym>CTR</acronym> mode with an
initial counter of <code>IC+1</code>.
</li></ul>
<p><acronym>CCM</acronym> mode decryption operates similarly, except that the
ciphertext and <acronym>MAC</acronym> are first decrypted using CTR mode to
retrieve the plaintext and authentication tag. The authentication tag
can then be recalculated from the authenticated data and plaintext, and
compared to the value in the message to check for authenticity.

<span id="ChaCha_002dPoly1305-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.4.4 ChaCha-Poly1305</h4>
<p>ChaCha-Poly1305 is a combination of the ChaCha stream cipher and the
poly1305 message authentication code (see <a href="#Poly1305">Poly1305</a>). It originates
from the NaCl cryptographic library by D. J. Bernstein et al, which
defines a similar construction but with Salsa20 instead of ChaCha.
</p>
<p>Nettle’s implementation of ChaCha-Poly1305 follows <cite>RFC 8439</cite>,
where the ChaCha cipher is initialized with a 12-byte nonce and a 4-byte
block counter. This allows up to 256 gigabytes of data to be encrypted
using the same key and nonce.
</p>
<p>For ChaCha-Poly1305, the ChaCha cipher is initialized with a key, of 256
bits, and a per-message nonce. The first block of the key stream
(counter all zero) is set aside for the authentication subkeys. Of this
64-octet block, the first 16 octets specify the poly1305 evaluation
point, and the next 16 bytes specify the value to add in for the final
digest. The final 32 bytes of this block are unused. Note that unlike
poly1305-aes, the evaluation point depends on the nonce. This is
preferable, because it leaks less information in case the attacker for
some reason is lucky enough to forge a valid authentication tag, and
observe (from the receiver’s behaviour) that the forgery succeeded.
</p>
<p>The ChaCha key stream, starting with counter value 1, is then used to
encrypt the message. For authentication, poly1305 is applied to the
concatenation of the associated data, the cryptotext, and the lengths of
the associated data and the message, each a 64-bit number (eight octets,
little-endian). Nettle defines ChaCha-Poly1305 in
<samp><nettle/chacha-poly1305.h></samp>.

<p>The <acronym>OCB</acronym> mode is an <acronym>AEAD</acronym> construction, featuring
particularly fast and simple authentication; it needs one block cipher
operation per data block, and almost free authentication. It is
constructed on top of a block cipher which must have a block size of 128
bits.
</p>
<p>There have been several versions of the OCB scheme, the implementation
in Nettle follows <cite>RFC 7253</cite>, which is almost the same as the
scheme OCB3.

<span id="index-SIV-mode"></span>
<span id="index-SIV_002dCMAC-mode"></span>
<p><acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> mode is a combination of counter mode with message
authentication based on <acronym>CMAC</acronym>. Unlike other counter <acronym>AEAD</acronym>
modes, it provides protection against accidental nonce misuse, making it
a good choice for stateless-servers that cannot ensure nonce uniqueness.
It is constructed on top of a block cipher which must have a block size of
128 bits. Nettle’s support for <acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> consists of
a message encryption and authentication interface, for
<acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> using AES as the underlying block cipher.
When a nonce is re-used with this mode, message authenticity is retained
however an attacker can determine whether the same plaintext was protected
with the two messages sharing the nonce.
These interfaces are defined in <samp><nettle/siv-cmac.h></samp>.
</p>
<p>Unlike other <acronym>AEAD</acronym> mode in <acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> the initialization
vector serves as the tag. That means that in the generated ciphertext
the tag precedes the ciphertext.
</p>
<p>Note also, that the <acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> algorithm, as specified in
<cite>RFC 5297</cite>, introduces the notion of authenticated data which
consist of multiple components. For example with <acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> the
authentication tag of data <code>X</code> followed by <code>Y</code>, is different
than the concatenated data <code>X || Y</code>. The interfaces described below
follow the <acronym>AEAD</acronym> paradigm and do not allow access to this
feature and also require the use of a non-empty nonce. In the
terminology of the RFC, the input to the S2V function is always a vector
of three elements, where S1 is the authenticated data, S2 is the nonce,
and S3 is the plaintext.

construction similar to <acronym>AES-GCM</acronym>, but provides protection against
accidental nonce misuse like <acronym>SIV-CMAC</acronym> mode.
</p>
<p>It is constructed on top of a block cipher which must have a block size of 128

<p>Unlike other <acronym>AEAD</acronym> mode in <acronym>SIV-GCM</acronym> the tag is calculated
over the encoded additional authentication data and plaintext instead of the

<span id="index-Keyed-Hash-Function"></span>
<span id="index-Message-Authentication-Code"></span>
<span id="index-MAC"></span>
<p>A <em>keyed hash function</em>, or <em>Message Authentication Code</em>
(<acronym>MAC</acronym>) is a function that takes a key and a message, and
produces fixed size <acronym>MAC</acronym>. It should be hard to compute a
message and a matching <acronym>MAC</acronym> without knowledge of the key. It
should also be hard to compute the key given only messages and
corresponding <acronym>MAC</acronym>s.
</p>
<p>Keyed hash functions are useful primarily for message authentication,
when Alice and Bob shares a secret: The sender, Alice, computes the
<acronym>MAC</acronym> and attaches it to the message. The receiver, Bob, also computes
the <acronym>MAC</acronym> of the message, using the same key, and compares that
to Alice’s value. If they match, Bob can be assured that
the message has not been modified on its way from Alice.
</p>
<p>However, unlike digital signatures, this assurance is not transferable.
Bob can’t show the message and the <acronym>MAC</acronym> to a third party and
prove that Alice sent that message. Not even if he gives away the key to
the third party. The reason is that the <em>same</em> key is used on both
sides, and anyone knowing the key can create a correct <acronym>MAC</acronym> for
any message. If Bob believes that only he and Alice knows the key, and
he knows that he didn’t attach a <acronym>MAC</acronym> to a particular message,
he knows it must be Alice who did it. However, the third party can’t
distinguish between a <acronym>MAC</acronym> created by Alice and one created by
Bob.
</p>
<p>Keyed hash functions are typically a lot faster than digital signatures
as well.

<span id="index-HMAC"></span>
<p>One can build keyed hash functions from ordinary hash functions. Older
constructions simply concatenate secret key and message and hashes that, but
such constructions have weaknesses. A better construction is
<acronym>HMAC</acronym>, described in <cite>RFC 2104</cite>.
</p>
<p>For an underlying hash function <code>H</code>, with digest size <code>l</code> and
internal block size <code>b</code>, <acronym>HMAC-H</acronym> is constructed as
follows: From a given key <code>k</code>, two distinct subkeys <code>k_i</code> and
<code>k_o</code> are constructed, both of length <code>b</code>. The
<acronym>HMAC-H</acronym> of a message <code>m</code> is then computed as <code>H(k_o |
H(k_i | m))</code>, where <code>|</code> denotes string concatenation.
</p>
<p><acronym>HMAC</acronym> keys can be of any length, but it is recommended to use
keys of length <code>l</code>, the digest size of the underlying hash function
<code>H</code>. Keys that are longer than <code>b</code> are shortened to length
<code>l</code> by hashing with <code>H</code>, so arbitrarily long keys aren’t
very useful.
</p>
<p>Nettle’s <acronym>HMAC</acronym> functions are defined in <samp><nettle/hmac.h></samp>.
There are abstract functions that use a pointer to a <code>struct
nettle_hash</code> to represent the underlying hash function and <code>void *</code>
pointers that point to three different context structs for that hash
function. There are also concrete functions for <acronym>HMAC-MD5</acronym>,
<acronym>HMAC-RIPEMD160</acronym> <acronym>HMAC-SHA1</acronym>, <acronym>HMAC-SHA256</acronym>,
<acronym>HMAC-SHA512</acronym>, and <acronym>HMAC-SM3</acronym>. First, the abstract functions:

<span id="UMAC-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.5.2 <acronym>UMAC</acronym></h4>
<span id="index-UMAC"></span>
<p><acronym>UMAC</acronym> is a message authentication code based on universal
hashing, and designed for high performance on modern processors (in
contrast to GCM, See <a href="#GCM">Galois counter mode</a>, which is designed primarily for hardware
performance). On processors with good integer multiplication
performance, it can be 10 times faster than SHA256 and SHA512.
<acronym>UMAC</acronym> is specified in <cite>RFC 4418</cite>.
</p>
<p>The secret key is always 128 bits (16 octets). The key is used as an
encryption key for the <acronym>AES</acronym> block cipher. This cipher is used
in counter mode to generate various internal subkeys needed in
<acronym>UMAC</acronym>. Messages are of arbitrary size, and for each message,
<acronym>UMAC</acronym> also needs a unique nonce. Nonce values must not be
reused for two messages with the same key, but they need not be kept
secret.
</p>
<p>The nonce must be at least one octet, and at most 16; nonces shorter
than 16 octets are zero-padded. Nettle’s implementation of
<acronym>UMAC</acronym> increments the nonce automatically for each message, so
explicitly setting the nonce for each message is optional. This
auto-increment uses network byte order and it takes the length of the
nonce into account. E.g., if the initial nonce is “abc” (3 octets),
this value is zero-padded to 16 octets for the first message. For the
next message, the nonce is incremented to “abd”, and this incremented
value is zero-padded to 16 octets.
</p>
<p><acronym>UMAC</acronym> is defined in four variants, for different output sizes:
32 bits (4 octets), 64 bits (8 octets), 96 bits (12 octets) and 128 bits
(16 octets), corresponding to different trade-offs between speed and
security. Using a shorter output size sometimes (but not always!) gives
the same result as using a longer output size and truncating the result.
So it is important to use the right variant. For consistency with other
hash and <acronym>MAC</acronym> functions, Nettle’s <code>_digest</code> functions for
<acronym>UMAC</acronym> accept a length parameter so that the output can be
truncated to any desired size, but it is recommended to stick to the
specified output size and select the <acronym>umac</acronym> variant
corresponding to the desired size.
</p>
<p>The internal block size of <acronym>UMAC</acronym> is 1024 octets, and it also
generates more than 1024 bytes of subkeys. This makes the size of the
context struct quite a bit larger than other hash functions and
<acronym>MAC</acronym> algorithms in Nettle.
</p>
<p>Nettle defines <acronym>UMAC</acronym> in <samp><nettle/umac.h></samp>.

<p>Poly1305-<acronym>AES</acronym> is a message authentication code designed by D. J.
Bernstein. It treats the message as a polynomial modulo the prime number
<em class='math'>2^130 - 5</em>.
</p>
<p>The key, 256 bits, consists of two parts, where the first half is an
<acronym>AES</acronym>-128 key, and the second half specifies the point where the
polynomial is evaluated. Of the latter half, 22 bits are set to zero, to
enable high-performance implementation, leaving 106 bits for specifying
an evaluation point <code>r</code>. For each message, one must also provide a
128-bit nonce. The nonce is encrypted using the <acronym>AES</acronym> key, and
that’s the only thing <acronym>AES</acronym> is used for.
</p>
<p>The message is split into 128-bit chunks (with final chunk possibly
being shorter), each read as a little-endian integer. Each chunk has a
one-bit appended at the high end. The resulting integers are treated as
polynomial coefficients modulo <em class='math'>2^130 - 5</em>, and the polynomial is
evaluated at the point <code>r</code>. Finally, this value is reduced modulo
<em class='math'>2^128</em>, and added (also modulo <em class='math'>2^128</em>) to the encrypted
nonce, to produce an 128-bit authenticator for the message. See
<a href="https://cr.yp.to/mac/poly1305-20050329.pdf">https://cr.yp.to/mac/poly1305-20050329.pdf</a> for further details.
</p>
<p>Clearly, variants using a different cipher than <acronym>AES</acronym> could be
defined. Another variant is the ChaCha-Poly1305 <acronym>AEAD</acronym>
construction (see <a href="#ChaCha_002dPoly1305">ChaCha-Poly1305</a>). Nettle defines

<span id="index-HKDF"></span>
<p>HKDF is a key derivation function used as a building block of
higher-level protocols like TLS 1.3. It is a derivation function
based on HMAC described in <cite>RFC 5869</cite>,
and is split into two logical modules, called ’extract’ and ’expand’.
The extract module takes an initial secret and a random
salt to "extract" a fixed-length pseudorandom key (PRK). The second stage
takes as input the previous PRK and some informational data (e.g.,
text) and expands them into multiple keys.
</p>
<p>Nettle’s <acronym>HKDF</acronym> functions are defined in
<samp><nettle/hkdf.h></samp>. There are two abstract functions for the extract
and expand operations that operate on any HMAC implemented via the <code>nettle_hash_update_func</code>,
and <code>nettle_hash_digest_func</code> interfaces.

<p>Balloon is a memory-hard password-hashing algorithm. An in-depth description
of the algorithm and its properties can be found in an online research paper:
Boneh, D., Corrigan-Gibbs, H., Schechter, S. (2017, May 12). Balloon Hashing:
A Memory-Hard Function Providing Provable Protection Against Sequential Attacks.
Retrieved Sep 1, 2022, from <a href="https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/027.pdf">https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/027.pdf</a>
</p>
<p>Nettle’s definition of the <acronym>BALLOON</acronym> algorithm can be found in
<samp><nettle/balloon.h></samp>. There is a general <acronym>BALLOON</acronym> function where
the user can specify desired hash algorithm that will be used by the function.
There are also concrete, more user-friendly functions that use common hash algorithms
like SHA1, SHA256, SHA384 and SHA512. There is also a utility function which helps to
determine the size of the working buffer that must be provided as one of the inputs.
</p>
<p>Each <acronym>BALLOON</acronym> function takes as an input a password and a salt of arbitrary
lengths, a time and a space parameters, and a scratch buffer. The space parameter
<var>s_cost</var> determines how many blocks of working space the algorithm will require
during its computation. It is common to set <var>s_cost</var> to a high value in order
to increase the cost of hardware accelerators built by the adversary. The time
parameter <var>t_cost</var> determines the number of rounds of computation that the algorithm
will perform. This can be used to further increase the cost of computation without raising
the memory requirement. Scratch buffer <var>scratch</var> is a user allocated working space
required by the algorithm. To determine the required size of the scratch buffer use the
utility function <code>balloon_itch</code>. Output of <acronym>BALLOON</acronym> algorithm will be
written into the output buffer <var>dst</var> that has to be at least <var>digest_size</var> bytes
long. Note that it is safe to use the same buffer for both <var>scratch</var> and <var>dst</var>.
Next follows the description of the general <acronym>BALLOON</acronym> function.

<p>Nettle uses <acronym>GMP</acronym>, the GNU bignum library, for all calculations
with large numbers. In order to use the public-key features of Nettle,
you must install <acronym>GMP</acronym>, at least version 3.0, before compiling
Nettle, and you need to link your programs with <code>-lhogweed -lnettle
-lgmp</code>.
</p>
<p>The concept of <em>Public-key</em> encryption and digital signatures was
discovered by Whitfield Diffie and Martin E. Hellman and described in a
paper 1976. In traditional, “symmetric”, cryptography, sender and
receiver share the same keys, and these keys must be distributed in a
secure way. And if there are many users or entities that need to
communicate, each <em>pair</em> needs a shared secret key known by nobody
else.
</p>
<span id="index-Public-Key-Cryptography"></span>
<span id="index-One_002dway-function"></span>
<p>Public-key cryptography uses trapdoor one-way functions. A
<em>one-way function</em> is a function <code>F</code> such that it is easy to
compute the value <code>F(x)</code> for any <code>x</code>, but given a value
<code>y</code>, it is hard to compute a corresponding <code>x</code> such that
<code>y = F(x)</code>. Two examples are cryptographic hash functions, and
exponentiation in certain groups.
</p>
<p>A <em>trapdoor one-way function</em> is a function <code>F</code> that is
one-way, unless one knows some secret information about <code>F</code>. If one
knows the secret, it is easy to compute both <code>F</code> and it’s inverse.
If this sounds strange, look at the <acronym>RSA</acronym> example below.
</p>
<p>Two important uses for one-way functions with trapdoors are public-key
encryption, and digital signatures. The public-key encryption functions
in Nettle are not yet documented; the rest of this chapter is about
digital signatures.
</p>
<p>To use a digital signature algorithm, one must first create a
<em>key-pair</em>: A public key and a corresponding private key. The private
key is used to sign messages, while the public key is used for verifying
that that signatures and messages match. Some care must be taken when
distributing the public key; it need not be kept secret, but if a bad
guy is able to replace it (in transit, or in some user’s list of known
public keys), bad things may happen.
</p>
<p>There are two operations one can do with the keys. The signature
operation takes a message and a private key, and creates a signature for
the message. A signature is some string of bits, usually at most a few
thousand bits or a few hundred octets. Unlike paper-and-ink signatures,
the digital signature depends on the message, so one can’t cut it out of
context and glue it to a different message.
</p>
<p>The verification operation takes a public key, a message, and a string
that is claimed to be a signature on the message, and returns true or
false. If it returns true, that means that the three input values
matched, and the verifier can be sure that someone went through with the
signature operation on that very message, and that the “someone” also
knows the private key corresponding to the public key.
</p>
<p>The desired properties of a digital signature algorithm are as follows:
Given the public key and pairs of messages and valid signatures on them,
it should be hard to compute the private key, and it should also be hard
to create a new message and signature that is accepted by the
verification operation.
</p>
<p>Besides signing meaningful messages, digital signatures can be used for
authorization. A server can be configured with a public key, such that
any client that connects to the service is given a random nonce message.
If the server gets a reply with a correct signature matching the nonce
message and the configured public key, the client is granted access. So
the configuration of the server can be understood as “grant access to
whoever knows the private key corresponding to this particular public
key, and to no others”.

<span id="RSA-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.7.1 <acronym>RSA</acronym></h4>
<p>The <acronym>RSA</acronym> algorithm was the first practical digital signature
algorithm that was constructed. It was described 1978 in a paper by
Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir and L.M. Adleman, and the technique was also
patented in the <acronym>USA</acronym> in 1983. The patent expired on September 20, 2000, and since
that day, <acronym>RSA</acronym> can be used freely, even in the <acronym>USA</acronym>.
</p>
<p>It’s remarkably simple to describe the trapdoor function behind
<acronym>RSA</acronym>. The “one-way”-function used is
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">F(x) = x^e mod n
</pre></div>
<p>I.e. raise x to the <code>e</code>’th power, while discarding all multiples of
<code>n</code>. The pair of numbers <code>n</code> and <code>e</code> is the public key.
<code>e</code> can be quite small, even <code>e = 3</code> has been used, although
slightly larger numbers are recommended. <code>n</code> should be about 2000
bits or larger.
</p>
<p>If <code>n</code> is large enough, and properly chosen, the inverse of F,
the computation of <code>e</code>’th roots modulo <code>n</code>, is very difficult.
But, where’s the trapdoor?
</p>
<p>Let’s first look at how <acronym>RSA</acronym> key-pairs are generated. First
<code>n</code> is chosen as the product of two large prime numbers <code>p</code>
and <code>q</code> of roughly the same size (so if <code>n</code> is 2000 bits,
<code>p</code> and <code>q</code> are about 1000 bits each). One also computes the
number <code>phi = (p-1)(q-1)</code>, in mathematical speak, <code>phi</code> is the
order of the multiplicative group of integers modulo n.
</p>
<p>Next, <code>e</code> is chosen. It must have no factors in common with <code>phi</code> (in
particular, it must be odd), but can otherwise be chosen more or less
randomly. <code>e = 65537</code> is a popular choice, because it makes raising
to the <code>e</code>’th power particularly efficient, and being prime, it
usually has no factors common with <code>phi</code>.
</p>
<p>Finally, a number <code>d</code>, <code>d < n</code> is computed such that <code>e d
mod phi = 1</code>. It can be shown that such a number exists (this is why
<code>e</code> and <code>phi</code> must have no common factors), and that for all x,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">(x^e)^d mod n = x^(ed) mod n = (x^d)^e mod n = x
</pre></div>
<p>Using Euclid’s algorithm, <code>d</code> can be computed quite easily from
<code>phi</code> and <code>e</code>. But it is still hard to get <code>d</code> without
knowing <code>phi</code>, which depends on the factorization of <code>n</code>.
</p>
<p>So <code>d</code> is the trapdoor, if we know <code>d</code> and <code>y = F(x)</code>, we can
recover x as <code>y^d mod n</code>. <code>d</code> is also the private half of
the <acronym>RSA</acronym> key-pair.
</p>
<p>The most common signature operation for <acronym>RSA</acronym> is defined in
<cite>PKCS#1</cite>, a specification by RSA Laboratories. The message to be
signed is first hashed using a cryptographic hash function, e.g.
<acronym>MD5</acronym> or <acronym>SHA1</acronym>. Next, some padding, the <acronym>ASN.1</acronym>
“Algorithm Identifier” for the hash function, and the message digest
itself, are concatenated and converted to a number <code>x</code>. The
signature is computed from <code>x</code> and the private key as <code>s = x^d
mod n</code><a id="DOCF1" href="#FOOT1"><sup>1</sup></a>. The signature, <code>s</code> is a
number of about the same size of <code>n</code>, and it usually encoded as a
sequence of octets, most significant octet first.
</p>
<p>The verification operation is straight-forward, <code>x</code> is computed
from the message in the same way as above. Then <code>s^e mod n</code> is
computed, the operation returns true if and only if the result equals
<code>x</code>.
</p>
<p>The <acronym>RSA</acronym> algorithm can also be used for encryption. RSA encryption uses
the public key <code>(n,e)</code> to compute the ciphertext <code>m^e mod n</code>.
The <cite>PKCS#1</cite> padding scheme will use at least 8 random and non-zero
octets, using <var>m</var> of the form <code>[00 02 padding 00 plaintext]</code>.
It is required that <code>m < n</code>, and therefor the plaintext must be
smaller than the octet size of the modulo <code>n</code>, with some margin.
</p>
<p>To decrypt the message, one needs the private key to compute <code>m =
c^e mod n</code> followed by checking and removing the padding.

<p>In general, Nettle’s <acronym>RSA</acronym> functions deviates from Nettle’s “no
memory allocation”-policy. Space for all the numbers, both in the key structs
above, and temporaries, are allocated dynamically. For information on how
to customize allocation, see
See <a data-manual="gmp" href="https://www.gmplib.org/manual/Custom-Allocation.html#Custom-Allocation">GMP Allocation</a> in <cite>GMP Manual</cite>.

and may also do other basic sanity checks. Returns one if successful, or
zero if the key can’t be used, for instance if the modulo is smaller
than the minimum size needed for <acronym>RSA</acronym> operations specified by PKCS#1.
</p></dd></dl>
<p>For each operation using the private key, there are two variants, e.g.,
<code>rsa_sha256_sign</code> and <code>rsa_sha256_sign_tr</code>. The former
function is older, and it should be avoided, because it provides no
defenses against side-channel attacks. The latter function use
randomized <acronym>RSA</acronym> blinding, which defends against timing attacks
using chosen-ciphertext, and it also checks the correctness of the
private key computation using the public key, which defends against
software or hardware errors which could leak the private key.
</p>
<p>Before signing or verifying a message, you first hash it with the
appropriate hash function. You pass the hash function’s context struct
to the <acronym>RSA</acronym> signature function, and it will extract the message
digest and do the rest of the work. There are also alternative functions
that take the hash digest as argument.
</p>
<p>There is currently no support for using SHA224 or SHA384 with
<acronym>RSA</acronym> signatures, since there’s no gain in either computation
time nor message size compared to using SHA256 and SHA512, respectively.

<p>While the above functions for the RSA signature operations use the

the PSS padding scheme, specified in <cite>RFC 8017</cite>. These variants
take advantage of a randomly choosen salt value, which could enhance the
security by causing output to be different for equivalent inputs.
However, assuming the same security level as inverting the <acronym>RSA</acronym>
algorithm, a longer salt value does not always mean a better security

<span id="DSA-1"></span><h4 class="subsection">7.7.2 <acronym>DSA</acronym></h4>
<p>The <acronym>DSA</acronym> digital signature algorithm is more complex than
<acronym>RSA</acronym>. It was specified during the early 1990s, and in 1994 NIST
published <acronym>FIPS</acronym> 186 which is the authoritative specification.
Sometimes <acronym>DSA</acronym> is referred to using the acronym <acronym>DSS</acronym>,
for Digital Signature Standard. The most recent revision of the
specification, FIPS186-3, was issued in 2009, and it adds support for
larger hash functions than <acronym>sha1</acronym>.
</p>
<p>For <acronym>DSA</acronym>, the underlying mathematical problem is the
computation of discrete logarithms. The public key consists of a large
prime <code>p</code>, a small prime <code>q</code> which is a factor of <code>p-1</code>,
a number <code>g</code> which generates a subgroup of order <code>q</code> modulo
<code>p</code>, and an element <code>y</code> in that subgroup.
</p>
<p>In the original <acronym>DSA</acronym>, the size of <code>q</code> is fixed to 160
bits, to match with the <acronym>SHA1</acronym> hash algorithm. The size of
<code>p</code> is in principle unlimited, but the
standard specifies only nine specific sizes: <code>512 + l*64</code>, where
<code>l</code> is between 0 and 8. Thus, the maximum size of <code>p</code> is 1024
bits, and sizes less than 1024 bits are considered obsolete and not
secure.
</p>
<p>The subgroup requirement means that if you compute
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">g^t mod p
</pre></div>
<p>for all possible integers <code>t</code>, you will get precisely <code>q</code>
distinct values.
</p>
<p>The private key is a secret exponent <code>x</code>, such that
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">g^x = y mod p
</pre></div>
<p>In mathematical speak, <code>x</code> is the <em>discrete logarithm</em> of
<code>y</code> mod <code>p</code>, with respect to the generator <code>g</code>. The size
of <code>x</code> will also be about the same size as <code>q</code>. The security of the
<acronym>DSA</acronym> algorithm relies on the difficulty of the discrete
logarithm problem. Current algorithms to compute discrete logarithms in
this setting, and hence crack <acronym>DSA</acronym>, are of two types. The first
type works directly in the (multiplicative) group of integers mod
<code>p</code>. The best known algorithm of this type is the Number Field
Sieve, and it’s complexity is similar to the complexity of factoring
numbers of the same size as <code>p</code>. The other type works in the
smaller <code>q</code>-sized subgroup generated by <code>g</code>, which has a more
difficult group structure. One good algorithm is Pollard-rho, which has
complexity <code>sqrt(q)</code>.
</p>
<p>The important point is that security depends on the size of <em>both</em>
<code>p</code> and <code>q</code>, and they should be chosen so that the difficulty
of both discrete logarithm methods are comparable. Today, the security
margin of the original <acronym>DSA</acronym> may be uncomfortably small. Using a
<code>p</code> of 1024 bits implies that cracking using the number field sieve
is expected to take about the same time as factoring a 1024-bit
<acronym>RSA</acronym> modulo, and using a <code>q</code> of size 160 bits implies
that cracking using Pollard-rho will take roughly <code>2^80</code> group
operations. With the size of <code>q</code> fixed, tied to the <acronym>SHA1</acronym>
digest size, it may be tempting to increase the size of <code>p</code> to,
say, 4096 bits. This will provide excellent resistance against attacks
like the number field sieve which works in the large group. But it will
do very little to defend against Pollard-rho attacking the small
subgroup; the attacker is slowed down at most by a single factor of 10
due to the more expensive group operation. And the attacker will surely
choose the latter attack.
</p>
<p>The signature generation algorithm is randomized; in order to create a
<acronym>DSA</acronym> signature, you need a good source for random numbers
(see <a href="#Randomness">Randomness</a>). Let us describe the common case of a 160-bit
<code>q</code>.
</p>
<p>To create a signature, one starts with the hash digest of the message,
<code>h</code>, which is a 160 bit number, and a random number <code>k,
0<k<q</code>, also 160 bits. Next, one computes
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">r = (g^k mod p) mod q
s = k^-1 (h + x r) mod q
</pre></div>
<p>The signature is the pair <code>(r, s)</code>, two 160 bit numbers. Note the
two different mod operations when computing <code>r</code>, and the use of the
secret exponent <code>x</code>.
</p>
<p>To verify a signature, one first checks that <code>0 < r,s < q</code>, and
then one computes backwards,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">w = s^-1 mod q
v = (g^(w h) y^(w r) mod p) mod q
</pre></div>
<p>The signature is valid if <code>v = r</code>. This works out because <code>w =
s^-1 mod q = k (h + x r)^-1 mod q</code>, so that
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">g^(w h) y^(w r) = g^(w h) (g^x)^(w r) = g^(w (h + x r)) = g^k
</pre></div>
<p>When reducing mod <code>q</code> this yields <code>r</code>. Note that when
verifying a signature, we don’t know either <code>k</code> or <code>x</code>: those
numbers are secret.
</p>
<p>If you can choose between <acronym>RSA</acronym> and <acronym>DSA</acronym>, which one is
best? Both are believed to be secure. <acronym>DSA</acronym> gained popularity in
the late 1990s, as a patent free alternative to <acronym>RSA</acronym>. Now that
the <acronym>RSA</acronym> patents have expired, there’s no compelling reason to
want to use <acronym>DSA</acronym>. Today, the original <acronym>DSA</acronym> key size
does not provide a large security margin, and it should probably be
phased out together with <acronym>RSA</acronym> keys of 1024 bits. Using the
revised <acronym>DSA</acronym> algorithm with a larger hash function, in
particular, <acronym>SHA256</acronym>, a 256-bit <code>q</code>, and <code>p</code> of size
2048 bits or more, should provide for a more comfortable security
margin, but these variants are not yet in wide use.
</p>
<p><acronym>DSA</acronym> signatures are smaller than <acronym>RSA</acronym> signatures,
which is important for some specialized applications.
</p>
<p>From a practical point of view, <acronym>DSA</acronym>’s need for a good
randomness source is a serious disadvantage. If you ever use the same
<code>k</code> (and <code>r</code>) for two different message, you leak your private
key.

the form <code>p_bits = 512 + l*64</code>, for <code>0 <= l <= 8</code>, where the
smaller sizes are no longer recommended, so you should most likely stick
to <code>p_bits = 1024</code>. Non-standard sizes are possible, in particular
<code>p_bits</code> larger than 1024, although <acronym>DSA</acronym> implementations
can not in general be expected to support such keys. Also note that
using very large <var>p_bits</var>, with <var>q_bits</var> fixed at 160, doesn’t
make much sense, because the security is also limited by the size of the
smaller prime. To generate <acronym>DSA</acronym> keys for use with

<p>For cryptographic purposes, an elliptic curve is a mathematical group of
points, and computing logarithms in this group is computationally
difficult problem. Nettle uses additive notation for elliptic curve
groups. If <em class='math'>P</em> and <em class='math'>Q</em> are two points, and <em class='math'>k</em> is an
integer, the point sum, <em class='math'>P + Q</em>, and the multiple <em class='math'>k P</em> can be
computed efficiently, but given only two points <em class='math'>P</em> and <em class='math'>Q</em>,
finding an integer <em class='math'>k</em> such that <em class='math'>Q = k P</em> is the elliptic
curve discrete logarithm problem.
</p>
<p>Nettle supports standard curves which are all of the form <em class='math'>y^2 =
x^3 - 3 x + b (mod p)</em>, i.e., the points have coordinates <em class='math'>(x,y)</em>,
both considered as integers modulo a specified prime <em class='math'>p</em>. Curves
are represented as a <code>struct ecc_curve</code>. It also supports
curve25519, which uses a different form of curve. Supported curves are
declared in <samp><nettle/ecc-curve.h></samp>, e.g., call
<code>nettle_get_secp_256r1</code> for a standardized curve using the 256-bit
prime <em class='math'>p = 2^{256} - 2^{224} + 2^{192} + 2^{96} - 1</em>. The contents
of these structs is not visible to nettle users. The “bitsize of the
curve” is used as a shorthand for the bitsize of the curve’s prime
<em class='math'>p</em>, e.g., 256 bits for the SECP 256R1 curve.

<span id="index-Side_002dchannel-attack"></span>
<p>Nettle’s implementation of the elliptic curve operations is intended to
be side-channel silent. The side-channel attacks considered are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> Timing attacks
If the timing of operations depends on secret values, an attacker
interacting with your system can measure the response time, and infer
information about your secrets, e.g., a private signature key.
</li><li> Attacks using memory caches
Assume you have some secret data on a multi-user system, and that this
data is properly protected so that other users get no direct access to
it. If you have a process operating on the secret data, and this process
does memory accesses depending on the data, e.g, an internal lookup
table in some cryptographic algorithm, an attacker running a separate
process on the same system may use behavior of internal CPU caches to
get information about your secrets. This type of attack can even cross
virtual machine boundaries.
</li></ul>
<p>Nettle’s ECC implementation is designed to be <em>side-channel silent</em>,
and not leak any information to these attacks. Timing and memory
accesses depend only on the size of the input data and its location in
memory, not on the actual data bits. This implies a performance penalty
in several of the building blocks.

<span id="ECDSA-1"></span><h4 class="subsubsection">7.7.3.2 ECDSA</h4>
<p>ECDSA is a variant of the DSA digital signature scheme (see <a href="#DSA"><acronym>DSA</acronym></a>),
which works over an elliptic curve group rather than over a (subgroup
of) integers modulo <em class='math'>p</em>. Like DSA, creating a signature requires a unique
random nonce (repeating the nonce with two different messages reveals
the private key, and any leak or bias in the generation of the nonce
also leaks information about the key).
</p>
<p>Unlike DSA, signatures are in general not tied to any particular hash
function or even hash size. Any hash function can be used, and the hash
value is truncated or padded as needed to get a size matching the curve
being used. It is recommended to use a strong cryptographic hash
function with digest size close to the bit size of the curve, e.g.,
SHA256 is a reasonable choice when using ECDSA signature over the curve
secp256r1. A protocol or application using ECDSA has to specify which
curve and which hash function to use, or provide some mechanism for
negotiating.

<span id="index-GOST-DSA"></span>
<p>GOSTDSA (GOST R 34.10-2001, GOST R 34.10-2012) is a variant of the DSA
(see <a href="#DSA"><acronym>DSA</acronym></a>) and ECDSA (see <a href="#ECDSA">ECDSA</a>) digital signature schemes, which works
over an elliptic curve group. Original documents are written in Russian.
English translations are provided in <cite>RFC 5832</cite> and <cite>RFC 7091</cite>.
While technically nothing stops one from using GOSTDSA over any curve, it
is defined only over several 256 and 512-bit curves. Like DSA and ECDSA,
creating a signature requires a unique random nonce (repeating the nonce
with two different messages reveals the private key, and any leak or bias
in the generation of the nonce also leaks information about the key).
</p>
<p>GOST R 34.10-2001 was defined to use GOST R 34.11-94 hash function
(GOSTHASH94 and GOSTHASH94CP, <cite>RFC 5831</cite>). GOST R 34.10-2012 is
defined to use GOST R 34.11-2012 hash function (Streebog, <cite>RFC
6986</cite>) of corresponding size (256 or 512) depending on curve size.
</p>
<p>Nettle defines GOSTDSA in <samp><nettle/gostdsa.h></samp>. GOSTDSA reuses ECDSA
data types (<code>struct ecc_point</code>, <code>struct ecc_scalar</code>) to
represent public and private keys. Also to generate a new GOSTDSA key
pair one has to use <code>ecdsa_generate_keypair()</code> function.

<span id="Curve25519-and-Curve448"></span><h4 class="subsubsection">7.7.3.4 Curve25519 and Curve448</h4>
<span id="index-Curve-25519"></span>
<span id="index-Curve-448"></span>
<p>Curve25519 is an elliptic curve of Montgomery type, <em class='math'>y^2 = x^3 +
486662 x^2 + x (mod p)</em>, with <em class='math'>p = 2^255 - 19</em>. Montgomery curves
have the advantage of simple and efficient point addition based on the
x-coordinate only. This particular curve was proposed by D. J. Bernstein
in 2006, for fast Diffie-Hellman key exchange, and is also described in
<cite>RFC 7748</cite>. The group generator is defined by <em class='math'>x = 9</em> (there
are actually two points with <em class='math'>x = 9</em>, differing by the sign of the
y-coordinate, but that doesn’t matter for the curve25519 operations
which work with the x-coordinate only).
</p>
<p>The curve25519 functions are defined as operations on octet strings,
representing 255-bit scalars or x-coordinates, in little-endian byte
order. The most significant input bit, i.e, the most significant bit of
the last octet, is always ignored.
</p>
<p>For scalars, in addition, the least significant three bits are ignored,
and treated as zero, and the second most significant bit is ignored too,
and treated as one. Then the scalar input string always represents 8
times a number in the range <em class='math'>2^251 <= s < 2^252</em>.
</p>
<p>Of all the possible input strings, only about half correspond to
x-coordinates of points on curve25519, i.e., a value <em class='math'>x</em> for which
the the curve equation can be solved for <em class='math'>y</em>. The other half
correspond to points on a related “twist curve”. The function
<code>curve25519_mul</code> uses a Montgomery ladder for the scalar
multiplication, as suggested in the curve25519 literature, and required
by <cite>RFC 7748</cite>. The output is therefore well defined for
<em>all</em> possible inputs, no matter if the input string represents a
valid point on the curve or not.
</p>
<p>Note that the curve25519 implementation in earlier versions of Nettle
deviates slightly from <cite>RFC 7748</cite>, in that bit 255 of the <em class='math'>x</em>
coordinate of the point input to curve25519_mul was not ignored. The
<samp>nette/curve25519.h</samp> defines a preprocessor symbol
<code>NETTLE_CURVE25519_RFC7748</code> to indicate conformance with the
standard.

<div class="subsubsection" id="EdDSA">
<h4 class="subsubsection">7.7.3.5 EdDSA</h4>
<span id="index-eddsa"></span>
<p>EdDSA is a signature scheme proposed by D. J. Bernstein et al. in 2011.
It is defined using a “Twisted Edwards curve”, of the form <em class='math'>-x^2
+ y^2 = 1 + d x^2 y^2</em>. The specific signature scheme Ed25519 uses a
curve which is equivalent to curve25519: The two groups used differ only
by a simple change of coordinates, so that the discrete logarithm
problem is of equal difficulty in both groups.
</p>
<p>Unlike other signature schemes in Nettle, the input to the EdDSA sign
and verify functions is the possibly large message itself, not a hash
digest. EdDSA is a variant of Schnorr signatures, where the message is
hashed together with other data during the signature process, providing
resilience to hash-collisions: A successful attack finding collisions in
the hash function does not automatically translate into an attack to
forge signatures. EdDSA also avoids the use of a randomness source by
generating the needed signature nonce from a hash of the private key and
the message, which means that the message is actually hashed twice when
creating a signature. If signing huge messages, it is possible to hash
the message first and pass the short message digest as input to the sign
and verify functions, however, the resilience to hash collision is then
lost.

<span id="Randomness-1"></span><h3 class="section">7.8 Randomness</h3>
<span id="index-Randomness"></span>
<p>A crucial ingredient in many cryptographic contexts is randomness: Let
<code>p</code> be a random prime, choose a random initialization vector
<code>iv</code>, a random key <code>k</code> and a random exponent <code>e</code>, etc. In
the theories, it is assumed that you have plenty of randomness around.
If this assumption is not true in practice, systems that are otherwise
perfectly secure, can be broken. Randomness has often turned out to be
the weakest link in the chain.
</p>
<p>In non-cryptographic applications, such as games as well as scientific
simulation, a good randomness generator usually means a generator that
has good statistical properties, and is seeded by some simple function
of things like the current time, process id, and host name.
</p>
<p>However, such a generator is inadequate for cryptography, for at least
two reasons:
</p>
<ul>
<li> It’s too easy for an attacker to guess the initial seed. Even if it will
take some 2^32 tries before he guesses right, that’s far too easy. For
example, if the process id is 16 bits, the resolution of “current time”
is one second, and the attacker knows what day the generator was seeded,
there are only about 2^32 possibilities to try if all possible values
for the process id and time-of-day are tried.
</li><li> The generator output reveals too much. By observing only a small segment
of the generator’s output, its internal state can be recovered, and from
there, all previous output and all future output can be computed by the
attacker.
</li></ul>
<p>A randomness generator that is used for cryptographic purposes must have
better properties. Let’s first look at the seeding, as the issues here
are mostly independent of the rest of the generator. The initial state
of the generator (its seed) must be unguessable by the attacker. So
what’s unguessable? It depends on what the attacker already knows. The
concept used in information theory to reason about such things is called
“entropy”, or “conditional entropy” (not to be confused with the
thermodynamic concept with the same name). A reasonable requirement is
that the seed contains a conditional entropy of at least some 80-100
bits. This property can be explained as follows: Allow the attacker to
ask <code>n</code> yes-no-questions, of his own choice, about the seed. If
the attacker, using this question-and-answer session, as well as any
other information he knows about the seeding process, still can’t guess
the seed correctly, then the conditional entropy is more than <code>n</code>
bits.
</p>
<span id="index-Entropy"></span>
<span id="index-Conditional-entropy"></span>
<p>Let’s look at an example. Say information about timing of received
network packets is used in the seeding process. If there is some random
network traffic going on, this will contribute some bits of entropy or
“unguessability” to the seed. However, if the attacker can listen in to
the local network, or if all but a small number of the packets were
transmitted by machines that the attacker can monitor, this additional
information makes the seed easier for the attacker to figure out. Even
if the information is exactly the same, the conditional entropy, or
unguessability, is smaller for an attacker that knows some of it already
before the hypothetical question-and-answer session.
</p>
<p>Seeding of good generators is usually based on several sources. The key
point here is that the amount of unguessability that each source
contributes, depends on who the attacker is. Some sources that have been
used are:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span>High resolution timing of i/o activities</span></dt>
<dd><p>Such as completed blocks from spinning hard disks, network packets, etc.
Getting access to such information is quite system dependent, and not
all systems include suitable hardware. If available, it’s one of the
better randomness source one can find in a digital, mostly predictable,
computer.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span>User activity</span></dt>
<dd><p>Timing and contents of user interaction events is another popular source
that is available for interactive programs (even if I suspect that it is
sometimes used in order to make the user feel good, not because the
quality of the input is needed or used properly). Obviously, not
available when a machine is unattended. Also beware of networks: User
interaction that happens across a long serial cable, <acronym>TELNET</acronym>
session, or even <acronym>SSH</acronym> session may be visible to an attacker, in
full or partially.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span>Audio input</span></dt>
<dd><p>Any room, or even a microphone input that’s left unconnected, is a
source of some random background noise, which can be fed into the
seeding process.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span>Specialized hardware</span></dt>
<dd><p>Hardware devices with the sole purpose of generating random data have
been designed. They range from radioactive samples with an attached
Geiger counter, to amplification of the inherent noise in electronic
components such as diodes and resistors, to low-frequency sampling of
chaotic systems. Hashing successive images of a Lava lamp is a
spectacular example of the latter type.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span>Secret information</span></dt>
<dd><p>Secret information, such as user passwords or keys, or private files
stored on disk, can provide some unguessability. A problem is that if
the information is revealed at a later time, the unguessability
vanishes. Another problem is that this kind of information tends to be
fairly constant, so if you rely on it and seed your generator regularly,
you risk constructing almost similar seeds or even constructing the same
seed more than once.
</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>For all practical sources, it’s difficult but important to provide a
reliable lower bound on the amount of unguessability that it provides.
Two important points are to make sure that the attacker can’t observe
your sources (so if you like the Lava lamp idea, remember that you have
to get your own lamp, and not put it by a window or anywhere else where
strangers can see it), and that hardware failures are detected. What if
the bulb in the Lava lamp, which you keep locked into a cupboard
following the above advice, breaks after a few months?
</p>
<p>So let’s assume that we have been able to find an unguessable seed,
which contains at least 80 bits of conditional entropy, relative to all
attackers that we care about (typically, we must at the very least
assume that no attacker has root privileges on our machine).
</p>
<p>How do we generate output from this seed, and how much can we get? Some
generators (notably the Linux <samp>/dev/random</samp> generator) tries to
estimate available entropy and restrict the amount of output. The goal
is that if you read 128 bits from <samp>/dev/random</samp>, you should get 128
“truly random” bits. This is a property that is useful in some
specialized circumstances, for instance when generating key material for
a one time pad, or when working with unconditional blinding, but in most
cases, it doesn’t matter much. For most application, there’s no limit on
the amount of useful “random” data that we can generate from a small
seed; what matters is that the seed is unguessable and that the
generator has good cryptographic properties.
</p>
<p>At the heart of all generators lies its internal state. Future output
is determined by the internal state alone. Let’s call it the generator’s
key. The key is initialized from the unguessable seed. Important
properties of a generator are:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><em>Key-hiding</em></span></dt>
<dd><p>An attacker observing the output should not be able to recover the
generator’s key.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><em>Independence of outputs</em></span></dt>
<dd><p>Observing some of the output should not help the attacker to guess
previous or future output.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><em>Forward secrecy</em></span></dt>
<dd><p>Even if an attacker compromises the generator’s key, he should not be
able to guess the generator output <em>before</em> the key compromise.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><em>Recovery from key compromise</em></span></dt>
<dd><p>If an attacker compromises the generator’s key, he can compute
<em>all</em> future output. This is inevitable if the generator is seeded
only once, at startup. However, the generator can provide a reseeding
mechanism, to achieve recovery from key compromise. More precisely: If
the attacker compromises the key at a particular time <code>t_1</code>, there
is another later time <code>t_2</code>, such that if the attacker observes all
output generated between <code>t_1</code> and <code>t_2</code>, he still can’t guess
what output is generated after <code>t_2</code>.
</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Nettle includes one randomness generator that is believed to have all
the above properties, and two simpler ones.
</p>
<p><acronym>ChaCha</acronym> (see <a href="#ChaCha">ChaCha</a>), like any stream cipher, can be used
as a randomness generator. Its output should be of reasonable
quality. There’s no single natural way to reseed it, but if you need
reseeding, you should be using Yarrow instead. Historically ARCFOUR
(see <a href="#Arcfour">Arcfour</a>) has been used as a randomness generator, however it is
known to be distinguishable from random data and the output leaks
information about the key.
</p>
<p>The “lagged Fibonacci” generator in <samp><nettle/knuth-lfib.h></samp> is a
fast generator with good statistical properties, but is <strong>not</strong> for
cryptographic use, and therefore not documented here. It is included
mostly because the Nettle test suite needs to generate some test data
from a small seed.
</p>
<p>The recommended generator to use is Yarrow, described below.

<div class="subsection" id="Yarrow">
<h4 class="subsection">7.8.1 Yarrow</h4>
<p>Yarrow is a family of pseudo-randomness generators, designed for
cryptographic use, by John Kelsey, Bruce Schneier and Niels Ferguson.
Yarrow-160 is described in a paper at
<a href="https://www.schneier.com/academic/yarrow/">https://www.schneier.com/academic/yarrow/</a>, and it uses <acronym>SHA1</acronym>
and triple-DES, and has a 160-bit internal state. Nettle implements
Yarrow-256, which is similar, but uses <acronym>SHA256</acronym> and
<acronym>AES</acronym> to get an internal state of 256 bits.
</p>
<p>Yarrow was an almost finished project, the paper mentioned above is the
closest thing to a specification for it, but some smaller details are
left out. There is no official reference implementation or test cases.
This section includes an overview of Yarrow, but for the details of
Yarrow-256, as implemented by Nettle, you have to consult the source
code. Maybe a complete specification can be written later.
</p>
<p>Yarrow can use many sources (at least two are needed for proper
reseeding), and two randomness “pools”, referred to as the “slow pool” and
the “fast pool”. Input from the sources is fed alternatingly into the
two pools. When one of the sources has contributed 100 bits of entropy
to the fast pool, a “fast reseed” happens and the fast pool is mixed
into the internal state. When at least two of the sources have
contributed at least 160 bits each to the slow pool, a “slow reseed”
takes place. The contents of both pools are mixed into the internal
state. These procedures should ensure that the generator will eventually
recover after a key compromise.
</p>
<p>The output is generated by using <acronym>AES</acronym> to encrypt a counter,
using the generator’s current key. After each request for output,
another 256 bits are generated which replace the key. This ensures
forward secrecy.
</p>
<p>Yarrow can also use a <em>seed file</em> to save state across restarts.
Yarrow is seeded by either feeding it the contents of the previous seed
file, or feeding it input from its sources until a slow reseed happens.
</p>
<p>Nettle defines Yarrow-256 in <samp><nettle/yarrow.h></samp>.

<span id="ASCII-encoding-1"></span><h3 class="section">7.9 ASCII encoding</h3>
<p>Encryption will transform your data from text into binary format, and that
may be a problem if, for example, you want to send the data as if it was
plain text in an email, or store it along with descriptive text in a
file. You may then use an encoding from binary to text: each binary byte
is translated into a number of bytes of plain text.
</p>
<p>A base-N encoding of data is one representation of data that only uses N
different symbols (instead of the 256 possible values of a byte).
</p>
<p>The base64 encoding will always use alphanumeric (upper and lower case)
characters and the ’+’, ’/’ and ’=’ symbols to represent the data. Four
output characters are generated for each three bytes of input. In case
the length of the input is not a multiple of three, padding characters
are added at the end. There’s also a “URL safe” variant, which is
useful for encoding binary data into URLs and filenames. See <cite>RFC
4648</cite>.
</p>
<p>The base16 encoding, also known as “hexadecimal”, uses the decimal
digits and the letters from A to F. Two hexadecimal digits are generated
for each input byte.
</p>
<p>Nettle supports both base64 and base16 encoding and decoding.
</p>
<p>Encoding and decoding uses a context struct to maintain its state (with
the exception of base16 encoding, which doesn’t need any). To encode or
decode the data, first initialize the context, then call the update
function as many times as necessary, and complete the operation by
calling the final function.
</p>
<p>The following functions can be used to perform base64 encoding and decoding.
They are defined in <samp><nettle/base64.h></samp>.

<ul class="no-bullet">
<li><!-- /@w --> 1 liter fresh nettles (urtica dioica)
</li><li><!-- /@w --> 2 tablespoons butter
</li><li><!-- /@w --> 3 tablespoons flour
</li><li><!-- /@w --> 1 liter stock (meat or vegetable)
</li><li><!-- /@w --> 1/2 teaspoon salt
</li><li><!-- /@w --> a tad white pepper
</li><li><!-- /@w --> some cream or milk
</li></ul>
<p>Gather 1 liter fresh nettles. Use gloves! Small, tender shoots are
preferable but the tops of larger nettles can also be used.
</p>
<p>Rinse the nettles very well. Boil them for 10 minutes in lightly salted
water. Strain the nettles and save the water. Hack the nettles. Melt the
butter and mix in the flour. Dilute with stock and the nettle-water you
saved earlier. Add the hacked nettles. If you wish you can add some milk
or cream at this stage. Bring to a boil and let boil for a few minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.
