5EVP_KDF-X942-ASN1 - The X9.42-2003 asn1 EVP_KDF implementation
6
7=head1 DESCRIPTION
8
9The EVP_KDF-X942-ASN1 algorithm implements the key derivation function
10X942KDF-ASN1. It is used by DH KeyAgreement, to derive a key using input such as
11a shared secret key and other info. The other info is DER encoded data that
12contains a 32 bit counter as well as optional fields for "partyu-info",
13"partyv-info", "supp-pubinfo" and "supp-privinfo".
14This kdf is used by Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS).
15
16=head2 Identity
17
18"X942KDF-ASN1" or "X942KDF" is the name for this implementation; it
19can be used with the EVP_KDF_fetch() function.
20
21=head2 Supported parameters
22
23The supported parameters are:
24
25=over 4
26
27=item "properties" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES>) <UTF8 string>
28
29=item "digest" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST>) <UTF8 string>
30
31These parameters work as described in L<EVP_KDF(3)/PARAMETERS>.
32
33=item "secret" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SECRET>) <octet string>
34
35The shared secret used for key derivation.  This parameter sets the secret.
36
37=item "acvp-info" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_ACVPINFO>) <octet string>
38
39This value should not be used in production and should only be used for ACVP
40testing. It is an optional octet string containing a combined DER encoded blob
41of any of the optional fields related to "partyu-info", "partyv-info",
42"supp-pubinfo" and "supp-privinfo". If it is specified then none of these other
43fields should be used.
44
45=item "partyu-info" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_PARTYUINFO>) <octet string>
46
47An optional octet string containing public info contributed by the initiator.
48
49=item "ukm" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_UKM>) <octet string>
50
51An alias for "partyu-info".
52In CMS this is the user keying material.
53
54=item "partyv-info" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_PARTYVINFO>) <octet string>
55
56An optional octet string containing public info contributed by the responder.
57
58=item "supp-pubinfo" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_SUPP_PUBINFO>) <octet string>
59
60An optional octet string containing some additional, mutually-known public
61information. Setting this value also sets "use-keybits" to 0.
62
63=item "use-keybits" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_USE_KEYBITS>) <integer>
64
65The default value of 1 will use the KEK key length (in bits) as the
66"supp-pubinfo". A value of 0 disables setting the "supp-pubinfo".
67
68=item "supp-privinfo" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_X942_SUPP_PRIVINFO>) <octet string>
69
70An optional octet string containing some additional, mutually-known private
71information.
72
73=item "cekalg" (B<OSSL_KDF_PARAM_CEK_ALG>) <UTF8 string>
74
75This parameter sets the CEK wrapping algorithm name.
76Valid values are "AES-128-WRAP", "AES-192-WRAP", "AES-256-WRAP" and "DES3-WRAP".

80=head1 NOTES
81
82A context for X942KDF can be obtained by calling:
83
84 EVP_KDF *kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "X942KDF", NULL);
85 EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf);
86
87The output length of an X942KDF is specified via the I<keylen>
88parameter to the L<EVP_KDF_derive(3)> function.
89
90=head1 EXAMPLES
91
92This example derives 24 bytes, with the secret key "secret" and random user
93keying material:
94
95  EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx;
96  EVP_KDF_CTX *kctx;
97  unsigned char out[192/8];
98  unsignred char ukm[64];
99  OSSL_PARAM params[5], *p = params;
100
101  if (RAND_bytes(ukm, sizeof(ukm)) <= 0)
102      error("RAND_bytes");
103
104  kdf = EVP_KDF_fetch(NULL, "X942KDF", NULL);
105  if (kctx == NULL)
106      error("EVP_KDF_fetch");
107  kctx = EVP_KDF_CTX_new(kdf);
108  EVP_KDF_free(kdf);
109  if (kctx == NULL)
110      error("EVP_KDF_CTX_new");
111
112  *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST, "SHA256", 0);
113  *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SECRET,
114                                           "secret", (size_t)6);
115  *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_octet_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_UKM, ukm, sizeof(ukm));
116  *p++ = OSSL_PARAM_construct_utf8_string(OSSL_KDF_PARAM_CEK_ALG, "AES-256-WRAP, 0);
117  *p = OSSL_PARAM_construct_end();
118  if (EVP_KDF_derive(kctx, out, sizeof(out), params) <= 0)
119      error("EVP_KDF_derive");
120
121  EVP_KDF_CTX_free(kctx);
