=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
EVP_KDF_PBKDF2 - The PBKDF2 EVP_KDF implementation
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Support for computing the B<PBKDF2> password-based KDF through the B<EVP_KDF>
|
|
API.
|
|
|
|
The EVP_KDF_PBKDF2 algorithm implements the PBKDF2 password-based key
|
|
derivation function, as described in RFC 2898; it derives a key from a password
|
|
using a salt and iteration count.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Numeric identity
|
|
|
|
B<EVP_KDF_PBKDF2> is the numeric identity for this implementation; it
|
|
can be used with the EVP_KDF_CTX_new_id() function.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Supported controls
|
|
|
|
The supported controls are:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PASS>
|
|
|
|
=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_SALT>
|
|
|
|
=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_ITER>
|
|
|
|
=item B<EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_MD>
|
|
|
|
These controls work as described in L<EVP_KDF_CTX(3)/CONTROLS>.
|
|
|
|
B<iter> is the iteration count and its value should be greater than or equal to
|
|
1. RFC 2898 suggests an iteration count of at least 1000. The default value is
|
|
2048. Any B<iter> less than 1 is treated as a single iteration.
|
|

|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
A typical application of this algorithm is to derive keying material for an
|
|
encryption algorithm from a password in the B<pass>, a salt in B<salt>,
|
|
and an iteration count.
|
|
|
|
Increasing the B<iter> parameter slows down the algorithm which makes it
|
|
harder for an attacker to perform a brute force attack using a large number
|
|
of candidate passwords.
|
|
|
|
No assumption is made regarding the given password; it is simply treated as a
|
|
byte sequence.
