The * algorithms that are available depend on the particular version * of OpenSSL that is installed. * * === Listing all supported algorithms * * A list of supported algorithms can be obtained by * * puts OpenSSL::Cipher.ciphers * * === Instantiating a Cipher * * There are several ways to create a Cipher instance. Generally, a * Cipher algorithm is categorized by its name, the key length in bits * and the cipher mode to be used. The most generic way to create a * Cipher is the following * * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher.new('--') * * That is, a string consisting of the hyphenated concatenation of the * individual components name, key length and mode. Either all uppercase * or all lowercase strings may be used, for example: * * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher.new('AES-128-CBC') * * For each algorithm supported, there is a class defined under the * Cipher class that goes by the name of the cipher, e.g. to obtain an * instance of AES, you could also use * * # these are equivalent * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, :CBC) * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, 'CBC') * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new('128-CBC') * * Finally, due to its wide-spread use, there are also extra classes * defined for the different key sizes of AES * * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES128.new(:CBC) * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES192.new(:CBC) * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES256.new(:CBC) * * === Choosing either encryption or decryption mode * * Encryption and decryption are often very similar operations for * symmetric algorithms, this is reflected by not having to choose * different classes for either operation, both can be done using the * same class. Still, after obtaining a Cipher instance, we need to * tell the instance what it is that we intend to do with it, so we * need to call either * * cipher.encrypt * * or * * cipher.decrypt * * on the Cipher instance. This should be the first call after creating * the instance, otherwise configuration that has already been set could * get lost in the process. * * === Choosing a key * * Symmetric encryption requires a key that is the same for the encrypting * and for the decrypting party and after initial key establishment should * be kept as private information. There are a lot of ways to create * insecure keys, the most notable is to simply take a password as the key * without processing the password further. A simple and secure way to * create a key for a particular Cipher is * * cipher = OpenSSL::AES256.new(:CFB) * cipher.encrypt * key = cipher.random_key # also sets the generated key on the Cipher * * If you absolutely need to use passwords as encryption keys, you * should use Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2 (PBKDF2) by * generating the key with the help of the functionality provided by * OpenSSL::PKCS5.pbkdf2_hmac_sha1 or OpenSSL::PKCS5.pbkdf2_hmac. * * Although there is Cipher#pkcs5_keyivgen, its use is deprecated and * it should only be used in legacy applications because it does not use * the newer PKCS#5 v2 algorithms. * * === Choosing an IV * * The cipher modes CBC, CFB, OFB and CTR all need an "initialization * vector", or short, IV. ECB mode is the only mode that does not require * an IV, but there is almost no legitimate use case for this mode * because of the fact that it does not sufficiently hide plaintext * patterns. Therefore * * You should never use ECB mode unless you are absolutely sure that * you absolutely need it * * Because of this, you will end up with a mode that explicitly requires * an IV in any case. Note that for backwards compatibility reasons, * setting an IV is not explicitly mandated by the Cipher API. If not * set, OpenSSL itself defaults to an all-zeroes IV ("\\0", not the * character). Although the IV can be seen as public information, i.e. * it may be transmitted in public once generated, it should still stay * unpredictable to prevent certain kinds of attacks. Therefore, ideally * * Always create a secure random IV for every encryption of your * Cipher * * A new, random IV should be created for every encryption of data. Think * of the IV as a nonce (number used once) - it's public but random and * unpredictable. A secure random IV can be created as follows * * cipher = ... * cipher.encrypt * key = cipher.random_key * iv = cipher.random_iv # also sets the generated IV on the Cipher * * Although the key is generally a random value, too, it is a bad choice * as an IV. There are elaborate ways how an attacker can take advantage * of such an IV. As a general rule of thumb, exposing the key directly * or indirectly should be avoided at all cost and exceptions only be * made with good reason. * * === Calling Cipher#final * * ECB (which should not be used) and CBC are both block-based modes. * This means that unlike for the other streaming-based modes, they * operate on fixed-size blocks of data, and therefore they require a * "finalization" step to produce or correctly decrypt the last block of * data by appropriately handling some form of padding. Therefore it is * essential to add the output of OpenSSL::Cipher#final to your * encryption/decryption buffer or you will end up with decryption errors * or truncated data. * * Although this is not really necessary for streaming-mode ciphers, it is * still recommended to apply the same pattern of adding the output of * Cipher#final there as well - it also enables you to switch between * modes more easily in the future. * * === Encrypting and decrypting some data * * data = "Very, very confidential data" * * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, :CBC) * cipher.encrypt * key = cipher.random_key * iv = cipher.random_iv * * encrypted = cipher.update(data) + cipher.final * ... * decipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, :CBC) * decipher.decrypt * decipher.key = key * decipher.iv = iv * * plain = decipher.update(encrypted) + decipher.final * * puts data == plain #=> true * * === Authenticated Encryption and Associated Data (AEAD) * * If the OpenSSL version used supports it, an Authenticated Encryption * mode (such as GCM or CCM) should always be preferred over any * unauthenticated mode. Currently, OpenSSL supports AE only in combination * with Associated Data (AEAD) where additional associated data is included * in the encryption process to compute a tag at the end of the encryption. * This tag will also be used in the decryption process and by verifying * its validity, the authenticity of a given ciphertext is established. * * This is superior to unauthenticated modes in that it allows to detect * if somebody effectively changed the ciphertext after it had been * encrypted. This prevents malicious modifications of the ciphertext that * could otherwise be exploited to modify ciphertexts in ways beneficial to * potential attackers. * * If no associated data is needed for encryption and later decryption, * the OpenSSL library still requires a value to be set - "" may be used in * case none is available. An example using the GCM (Galois Counter Mode): * * cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, :GCM) * cipher.encrypt * key = cipher.random_key * iv = cipher.random_iv * cipher.auth_data = "" * * encrypted = cipher.update(data) + cipher.final * tag = cipher.auth_tag * * decipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(128, :GCM) * decipher.decrypt * decipher.key = key * decipher.iv = iv * decipher.auth_tag = tag * decipher.auth_data = "" * * plain = decipher.update(encrypted) + decipher.final * * puts data == plain #=> true */ cCipher = rb_define_class_under(mOSSL, "Cipher", rb_cObject); eCipherError = rb_define_class_under(cCipher, "CipherError", eOSSLError); rb_define_alloc_func(cCipher, ossl_cipher_alloc); rb_define_copy_func(cCipher, ossl_cipher_copy); rb_define_module_function(cCipher, "ciphers", ossl_s_ciphers, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "initialize", ossl_cipher_initialize, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "reset", ossl_cipher_reset, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "encrypt", ossl_cipher_encrypt, -1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "decrypt", ossl_cipher_decrypt, -1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "pkcs5_keyivgen", ossl_cipher_pkcs5_keyivgen, -1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "update", ossl_cipher_update, -1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "final", ossl_cipher_final, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "name", ossl_cipher_name, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "key=", ossl_cipher_set_key, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "auth_data=", ossl_cipher_set_auth_data, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "auth_tag=", ossl_cipher_set_auth_tag, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "auth_tag", ossl_cipher_get_auth_tag, -1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "authenticated?", ossl_cipher_is_authenticated, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "key_len=", ossl_cipher_set_key_length, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "key_len", ossl_cipher_key_length, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "iv=", ossl_cipher_set_iv, 1); rb_define_method(cCipher, "iv_len", ossl_cipher_iv_length, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "block_size", ossl_cipher_block_size, 0); rb_define_method(cCipher, "padding=", ossl_cipher_set_padding, 1); }
