=pod =head1 NAME EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init, EVP_PKEY_auth_encapsulate_init, EVP_PKEY_encapsulate - Key encapsulation using a KEM algorithm with a public key =head1 SYNOPSIS #include int EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, const OSSL_PARAM params[]); int EVP_PKEY_auth_encapsulate_init(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, EVP_PKEY *authpriv, const OSSL_PARAM params[]); int EVP_PKEY_encapsulate(EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx, unsigned char *wrappedkey, size_t *wrappedkeylen, unsigned char *genkey, size_t *genkeylen); =head1 DESCRIPTION The EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init() function initializes a public key algorithm context I for an encapsulation operation and then sets the I on the context in the same way as calling L. Note that I is usually is produced using L, specifying the public key to use. The EVP_PKEY_auth_encapsulate_init() function is similar to EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init() but also passes an I authentication private key that is used during encapsulation. The EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() function performs a public key encapsulation operation using I. The symmetric secret generated in I can be used as key material. The ciphertext in I is its encapsulated form, which can be sent to another party, who can use L to retrieve it using their private key. If I is NULL then the maximum size of the output buffer is written to the I<*wrappedkeylen> parameter unless I is NULL and the maximum size of the generated key buffer is written to I<*genkeylen> unless I is NULL. If I is not NULL and the call is successful then the internally generated key is written to I and its size is written to I<*genkeylen>. The encapsulated version of the generated key is written to I and its size is written to I<*wrappedkeylen>. Note that if I is not NULL, then the value it points to must initially hold the size of the I buffer so that its size can be validated by the call, ensuring it is large enough to hold the result written to I. =head1 NOTES After the call to EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init() algorithm-specific parameters for the operation may be set or modified using L. =head1 RETURN VALUES EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init(), EVP_PKEY_auth_encapsulate_init() and EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() return 1 for success and 0 or a negative value for failure. In particular a return value of -2 indicates the operation is not supported by the public key algorithm. =head1 EXAMPLES Encapsulate an RSASVE key (for RSA keys). #include /* * NB: assumes rsa_pub_key is an public key of another party. */ EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx = NULL; size_t secretlen = 0, outlen = 0; unsigned char *out = NULL, *secret = NULL; ctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new_from_pkey(libctx, rsa_pub_key, NULL); if (ctx == NULL) /* Error */ if (EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init(ctx, NULL) <= 0) /* Error */ /* Set the mode - only 'RSASVE' is currently supported */ if (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_kem_op(ctx, "RSASVE") <= 0) /* Error */ /* Determine buffer length */ if (EVP_PKEY_encapsulate(ctx, NULL, &outlen, NULL, &secretlen) <= 0) /* Error */ out = OPENSSL_malloc(outlen); secret = OPENSSL_malloc(secretlen); if (out == NULL || secret == NULL) /* malloc failure */ /* * The generated 'secret' can be used as key material. * The encapsulated 'out' can be sent to another party who can * decapsulate it using their private key to retrieve the 'secret'. */ if (EVP_PKEY_encapsulate(ctx, out, &outlen, secret, &secretlen) <= 0) /* Error */ =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, L, L =head1 HISTORY These functions EVP_PKEY_encapsulate_init() and EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() were added in OpenSSL 3.0. The function EVP_PKEY_auth_encapsulate_init() was added in OpenSSL 3.2. =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2020-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.
