While stereotyped repetitions are frowned upon in literature, they serve a useful purpose in manual pages, because it is easier for the user to find certain information if it is always presented in the same way. For that reason, this commit harmonizes the varying formulations in the HISTORY section about which functions, flags, etc. were added in which OpenSSL version. It also attempts to make the pod files more grep friendly by avoiding to insert line breaks between the symbol names and the corresponding version number in which they were introduced (wherever possible). Some punctuation and typographical errors were fixed on the way. Reviewed-by: Tim Hudson <tjh@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/7854)

=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/srp.h>
|
|
|
|
SRP_VBASE *SRP_VBASE_new(char *seed_key);
|
|
void SRP_VBASE_free(SRP_VBASE *vb);
|
|
|
|
int SRP_VBASE_init(SRP_VBASE *vb, char *verifier_file);
|
|
|
|
int SRP_VBASE_add0_user(SRP_VBASE *vb, SRP_user_pwd *user_pwd);
|

|

|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The SRP_VBASE_new() function allocates a structure to store server side SRP
|
|
verifier information.
|
|
If B<seed_key> is not NULL a copy is stored and used to generate dummy parameters
|
|
for users that are not found by SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user(). This allows the server
|
|
to hide the fact that it doesn't have a verifier for a particular username,
|
|
as described in section 2.5.1.3 'Unknown SRP' of RFC 5054.
|
|
The seed string should contain random NUL terminated binary data (therefore
|
|
the random data should not contain NUL bytes!).
|
|
|
|
The SRP_VBASE_free() function frees up the B<vb> structure.
|
|
If B<vb> is NULL, nothing is done.
|
|
|
|
The SRP_VBASE_init() function parses the information in a verifier file and
|
|
populates the B<vb> structure.
|
|
The verifier file is a text file containing multiple entries, whose format is:
|
|
flag base64(verifier) base64(salt) username gNid userinfo(optional)
|
|
where the flag can be 'V' (valid) or 'R' (revoked).
|
|
Note that the base64 encoding used here is non-standard so it is recommended
|
|
to use L<srp(1)> to generate this file.
|
|
|
|
The SRP_VBASE_add0_user() function adds the B<user_pwd> verifier information
|
|
to the B<vb> structure. See L<SRP_user_pwd_new(3)> to create and populate this
|
|
record.
|
|
The library takes ownership of B<user_pwd>, it should not be freed by the caller.
|
|
|
|
The SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user() function returns the password info for the user
|
|
whose username matches B<username>. It replaces the deprecated
|
|
SRP_VBASE_get_by_user().
|
|
If no matching user is found but a seed_key and default gN parameters have been
|
|
set, dummy authentication information is generated from the seed_key, allowing
|
|
the server to hide the fact that it doesn't have a verifier for a particular
|
|
username. When using SRP as a TLS authentication mechanism, this will cause
|
|
the handshake to proceed normally but the first client will be rejected with
|
|
a "bad_record_mac" alert, as if the password was incorrect.
|
|
If no matching user is found and the seed_key is not set, NULL is returned.
|
|
Ownership of the returned pointer is released to the caller, it must be freed
|
|
with SRP_user_pwd_free().
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
SRP_VBASE_init() returns B<SRP_NO_ERROR> (0) on success and a positive value
|
|
on failure.
|
|
The error codes are B<SRP_ERR_OPEN_FILE> if the file could not be opened,
|
|
B<SRP_ERR_VBASE_INCOMPLETE_FILE> if the file could not be parsed,
|
|
B<SRP_ERR_MEMORY> on memory allocation failure and B<SRP_ERR_VBASE_BN_LIB>
|
|
for invalid decoded parameter values.
|
|
|
|
SRP_VBASE_add0_user() returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
