  63. .SH NAME
  64. EVP_KDF\-PBKDF2 \- The PBKDF2 EVP_KDF implementation
  65. .SH DESCRIPTION
  66. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  67. Support for computing the \fBPBKDF2\fR password-based KDF through the \fBEVP_KDF\fR
  68. API.
  69. .PP
  70. The EVP_KDF\-PBKDF2 algorithm implements the PBKDF2 password-based key
  71. derivation function, as described in SP800\-132; it derives a key from a password
  72. using a salt and iteration count.
  73. .PP
  74. The output is considered to be a cryptographic key.
  75. .SS Identity
  76. .IX Subsection "Identity"
  77. "PBKDF2" is the name for this implementation; it
  78. can be used with the \fBEVP_KDF_fetch()\fR function.
  79. .SS "Supported parameters"
  80. .IX Subsection "Supported parameters"
  81. The supported parameters are:
  82. .IP """pass"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PASSWORD\fR) <octet string>" 4
  83. .IX Item """pass"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PASSWORD) <octet string>"
  84. .PD 0
  85. .IP """salt"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT\fR) <octet string>" 4
  86. .IX Item """salt"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT) <octet string>"
  87. .IP """iter"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
  88. .IX Item """iter"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER) <unsigned integer>"
  89. .PD
  90. This parameter has a default value of 2048.
  91. .IP """properties"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
  92. .IX Item """properties"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES) <UTF8 string>"
  93. .PD 0
  94. .IP """digest"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
  95. .IX Item """digest"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST) <UTF8 string>"
  96. .PD
  97. These parameters work as described in "PARAMETERS" in \fBEVP_KDF\fR\|(3).
  98. .IP """pkcs5"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_PKCS5\fR) <integer>" 4
  99. .IX Item """pkcs5"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PKCS5) <integer>"
  100. This parameter can be used to enable or disable SP800\-132 compliance checks.
  101. Setting the mode to 0 enables the compliance checks.
  102. .Sp
  103. The checks performed are:
  104. .RS 4
  105. .IP "\- the iteration count is at least 1000." 4
  106. .IX Item "- the iteration count is at least 1000."
  107. .PD 0
  108. .IP "\- the salt length is at least 128 bits." 4
  109. .IX Item "- the salt length is at least 128 bits."
  110. .IP "\- the derived key length is at least 112 bits." 4
  111. .IX Item "- the derived key length is at least 112 bits."
  112. .RE
  113. .RS 4
  114. .PD
  115. .Sp
  116. The default provider uses a default mode of 1 for backwards compatibility,
  117. and the FIPS provider uses a default mode of 0.
  118. This option breaks FIPS compliance if it causes the approved "fips-indicator"
  119. to return 0.
  120. .RE
  121. .IP """fips-indicator"" (\fBOSSL_KDF_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR\fR) <integer>" 4
  122. .IX Item """fips-indicator"" (OSSL_KDF_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR) <integer>"
  123. This option is used by the OpenSSL FIPS provider.
  124. .Sp
  125. A getter that returns 1 if the operation is FIPS approved, or 0 otherwise.
  126. This may be used after calling EVP_KDF_derive. It returns 0 if "pkcs5"
  127. is set to 1 and the derived key length, salt length or iteration count test
  128. fails.
  129. .SH NOTES
  130. .IX Header "NOTES"
  131. A typical application of this algorithm is to derive keying material for an
  132. encryption algorithm from a password in the "pass", a salt in "salt",
  133. and an iteration count.
  134. .PP
  135. Increasing the "iter" parameter slows down the algorithm which makes it
  136. harder for an attacker to perform a brute force attack using a large number
  137. of candidate passwords.
  138. .PP
  139. No assumption is made regarding the given password; it is simply treated as a
  140. byte sequence.
