=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The B<ECDSA_SIG> structure consists of two BIGNUMs for the
|
|
|
|
r and s value of a ECDSA signature (see X9.62 or FIPS 186-2).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
struct
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
BIGNUM *r;
|
|
|
|
BIGNUM *s;
|
|
|
|
} ECDSA_SIG;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_SIG_new() allocates a new B<ECDSA_SIG> structure (note: this
|
|
|
|
function also allocates the BIGNUMs) and initialize it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_SIG_free() frees the B<ECDSA_SIG> structure B<sig>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
i2d_ECDSA_SIG() creates the DER encoding of the ECDSA signature
|
|
|
|
B<sig> and writes the encoded signature to B<*pp> (note: if B<pp>
|
|
|
|
is NULL B<i2d_ECDSA_SIG> returns the expected length in bytes of
|
|
|
|
the DER encoded signature). B<i2d_ECDSA_SIG> returns the length
|
|
|
|
of the DER encoded signature (or 0 on error).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
d2i_ECDSA_SIG() decodes a DER encoded ECDSA signature and returns
|
|
|
|
the decoded signature in a newly allocated B<ECDSA_SIG> structure.
|
|
|
|
B<*sig> points to the buffer containing the DER encoded signature
|
|
|
|
of size B<len>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_size() returns the maximum length of a DER encoded
|
|
|
|
ECDSA signature created with the private EC key B<eckey>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_sign_setup() may be used to precompute parts of the
|
|
|
|
signing operation. B<eckey> is the private EC key and B<ctx>
|
|
|
|
is a pointer to B<BN_CTX> structure (or NULL). The precomputed
|
|
|
|
values or returned in B<kinv> and B<rp> and can be used in a
|
2005-05-19 20:54:30 +00:00
|
|
|
later call to B<ECDSA_sign_ex> or B<ECDSA_do_sign_ex>.

|
|
|
ECDSA_sign() is wrapper function for ECDSA_sign_ex with B<kinv>
|
|
|
|
and B<rp> set to NULL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_sign_ex() computes a digital signature of the B<dgstlen> bytes
|
|
|
|
hash value B<dgst> using the private EC key B<eckey> and the optional
|
|
|
|
pre-computed values B<kinv> and B<rp>. The DER encoded signatures is
|
|
|
|
stored in B<sig> and it's length is returned in B<sig_len>. Note: B<sig>
|
2004-02-27 23:03:23 +00:00
|
|
|
must point to B<ECDSA_size> bytes of memory. The parameter B<type>
|
|
|
|
is ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_verify() verifies that the signature in B<sig> of size
|
|
|
|
B<siglen> is a valid ECDSA signature of the hash value
|
|
|
|
value B<dgst> of size B<dgstlen> using the public key B<eckey>.
|
|
|
|
The parameter B<type> is ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
2005-05-19 20:54:30 +00:00
|
|
|
ECDSA_do_sign() is wrapper function for ECDSA_do_sign_ex with B<kinv>
|
|
|
|
and B<rp> set to NULL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_do_sign_ex() computes a digital signature of the B<dgst_len>
|
|
|
|
bytes hash value B<dgst> using the private key B<eckey> and the
|
|
|
|
optional pre-computed values B<kinv> and B<rp>. The signature is
|
|
|
|
returned in a newly allocated B<ECDSA_SIG> structure (or NULL on error).
|
2004-02-27 23:03:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_do_verify() verifies that the signature B<sig> is a valid
|
|
|
|
ECDSA signature of the hash value B<dgst> of size B<dgst_len>
|
|
|
|
using the public key B<eckey>.
|
|
|

|

|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_size() returns the maximum length signature or 0 on error.
|
|
|
|
|
2012-01-11 21:41:50 +00:00
|
|
|
ECDSA_sign_setup() and ECDSA_sign() return 1 if successful or 0
|
2004-02-27 23:03:23 +00:00
|
|
|
on error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_verify() and ECDSA_do_verify() return 1 for a valid
|
|
|
|
signature, 0 for an invalid signature and -1 on error.
|
|
|
|
The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating a ECDSA signature of given SHA-1 hash value using the
|
|
|
|
named curve secp192k1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First step: create a EC_KEY object (note: this part is B<not> ECDSA
|
|
|
|
specific)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
int ret;
|
|
|
|
ECDSA_SIG *sig;
|
|
|
|
EC_KEY *eckey = EC_KEY_new();
|
|
|
|
if (eckey == NULL)
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
key->group = EC_GROUP_new_by_nid(NID_secp192k1);
|
|
|
|
if (key->group == NULL)
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
if (!EC_KEY_generate_key(eckey))
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Second step: compute the ECDSA signature of a SHA-1 hash value
|
|
|
|
using B<ECDSA_do_sign>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sig = ECDSA_do_sign(digest, 20, eckey);
|
|
|
|
if (sig == NULL)
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or using B<ECDSA_sign>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unsigned char *buffer, *pp;
|
|
|
|
int buf_len;
|
|
|
|
buf_len = ECDSA_size(eckey);
|
|
|
|
buffer = OPENSSL_malloc(buf_len);
|
|
|
|
pp = buffer;
|
|
|
|
if (!ECDSA_sign(0, dgst, dgstlen, pp, &buf_len, eckey);
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Third step: verify the created ECDSA signature using B<ECDSA_do_verify>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ret = ECDSA_do_verify(digest, 20, sig, eckey);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or using B<ECDSA_verify>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ret = ECDSA_verify(0, digest, 20, buffer, buf_len, eckey);
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and finally evaluate the return value:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if (ret == -1)
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* error */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
else if (ret == 0)
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* incorrect signature */
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
else /* ret == 1 */
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
/* signature ok */
|
|
|
|
}
