- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
- This documentation is primarily aimed at provider authors. See \fBprovider\fR\|(7)
- for further information.
- .PP
- The asymmetric cipher (OSSL_OP_ASYM_CIPHER) operation enables providers to
- implement asymmetric cipher algorithms and make them available to applications
- via the API functions \fBEVP_PKEY_encrypt\fR\|(3),
- \&\fBEVP_PKEY_decrypt\fR\|(3) and
- other related functions).
- .PP
- All "functions" mentioned here are passed as function pointers between
- \&\fIlibcrypto\fR and the provider in \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays via
- \&\fBOSSL_ALGORITHM\fR\|(3) arrays that are returned by the provider's
- \&\fBprovider_query_operation()\fR function
- (see "Provider Functions" in \fBprovider\-base\fR\|(7)).
- .PP
- All these "functions" have a corresponding function type definition
- named \fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}_fn\fR, and a helper function to retrieve the
- function pointer from an \fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) element named
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_{name}\fR.
- For example, the "function" \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx()\fR has these:
- .PP
- .Vb 3
- \& typedef void *(OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx_fn)(void *provctx);
- \& static ossl_inline OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx_fn
- \& OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx(const OSSL_DISPATCH *opf);
- .Ve
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_DISPATCH\fR\|(3) arrays are indexed by numbers that are provided as
- macros in \fBopenssl\-core_dispatch.h\fR\|(7), as follows:

- .PP
- An asymmetric cipher algorithm implementation may not implement all of these
- functions.
- In order to be a consistent set of functions a provider must implement
- OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx and OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_freectx.
- It must also implement both of OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt_init and
- OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt, or both of OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt_init and
- OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt.
- OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_get_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then so must
- OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_gettable_ctx_params.
- Similarly, OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params is optional but if it is present then
- so must OSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_settable_ctx_params.
- .PP
- An asymmetric cipher algorithm must also implement some mechanism for generating,
- loading or importing keys via the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation.
- See \fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7) for further details.
- .SS "Context Management Functions"
- .IX Subsection "Context Management Functions"
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx()\fR should create and return a pointer to a provider side
- structure for holding context information during an asymmetric cipher operation.
- A pointer to this context will be passed back in a number of the other
- asymmetric cipher operation function calls.
- The parameter \fIprovctx\fR is the provider context generated during provider
- initialisation (see \fBprovider\fR\|(7)).
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_freectx()\fR is passed a pointer to the provider side asymmetric
- cipher context in the \fIctx\fR parameter.
- This function should free any resources associated with that context.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_dupctx()\fR should duplicate the provider side asymmetric cipher
- context in the \fIctx\fR parameter and return the duplicate copy.
- .SS "Encryption Functions"
- .IX Subsection "Encryption Functions"
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt_init()\fR initialises a context for an asymmetric encryption
- given a provider side asymmetric cipher context in the \fIctx\fR parameter, and a
- pointer to a provider key object in the \fIprovkey\fR parameter.
- The \fIparams\fR, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
- using \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params()\fR.
- The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
- the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see \fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7)).
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt()\fR performs the actual encryption itself.
- A previously initialised asymmetric cipher context is passed in the \fIctx\fR
- parameter.
- The data to be encrypted is pointed to by the \fIin\fR parameter which is \fIinlen\fR
- bytes long.
- Unless \fIout\fR is NULL, the encrypted data should be written to the location
- pointed to by the \fIout\fR parameter and it should not exceed \fIoutsize\fR bytes in
- length.
- The length of the encrypted data should be written to \fI*outlen\fR.
- If \fIout\fR is NULL then the maximum length of the encrypted data should be
- written to \fI*outlen\fR.
- .SS "Decryption Functions"
- .IX Subsection "Decryption Functions"
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt_init()\fR initialises a context for an asymmetric decryption
- given a provider side asymmetric cipher context in the \fIctx\fR parameter, and a
- pointer to a provider key object in the \fIprovkey\fR parameter.
- The \fIparams\fR, if not NULL, should be set on the context in a manner similar to
- using \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params()\fR.
- The key object should have been previously generated, loaded or imported into
- the provider using the key management (OSSL_OP_KEYMGMT) operation (see
- \&\fBprovider\-keymgmt\fR\|(7)).
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt()\fR performs the actual decryption itself.
- A previously initialised asymmetric cipher context is passed in the \fIctx\fR
- parameter.
- The data to be decrypted is pointed to by the \fIin\fR parameter which is \fIinlen\fR
- bytes long.
- Unless \fIout\fR is NULL, the decrypted data should be written to the location
- pointed to by the \fIout\fR parameter and it should not exceed \fIoutsize\fR bytes in
- length.
- The length of the decrypted data should be written to \fI*outlen\fR.
- If \fIout\fR is NULL then the maximum length of the decrypted data should be
- written to \fI*outlen\fR.
- .SS "Asymmetric Cipher Parameters"
- .IX Subsection "Asymmetric Cipher Parameters"
- See \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) for further details on the parameters structure used by
- the \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_get_ctx_params()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params()\fR
- functions.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_get_ctx_params()\fR gets asymmetric cipher parameters associated
- with the given provider side asymmetric cipher context \fIctx\fR and stores them in
- \&\fIparams\fR.
- Passing NULL for \fIparams\fR should return true.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params()\fR sets the asymmetric cipher parameters associated
- with the given provider side asymmetric cipher context \fIctx\fR to \fIparams\fR.
- Any parameter settings are additional to any that were previously set.
- Passing NULL for \fIparams\fR should return true.
- .PP
- Parameters currently recognised by built-in asymmetric cipher algorithms are as
- follows.
- Not all parameters are relevant to, or are understood by all asymmetric cipher
- algorithms:

- .IX Item """digest-props"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_OAEP_DIGEST_PROPS) <UTF8 string>"
- Gets or sets the properties to use when fetching the OAEP digest algorithm.
- .IP """digest-props"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_DIGEST_PROPS\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4

- Gets or sets the name of the MGF1 digest algorithm used when OAEP or PSS padding
- is in use.
- .IP """mgf1\-digest\-props"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_MGF1_DIGEST_PROPS\fR) <UTF8 string>" 4
- .IX Item """mgf1-digest-props"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_MGF1_DIGEST_PROPS) <UTF8 string>"
- Gets or sets the properties to use when fetching the MGF1 digest algorithm.
- .IP """oaep-label"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_OAEP_LABEL\fR) <octet string ptr>" 4
- .IX Item """oaep-label"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_OAEP_LABEL) <octet string ptr>"
- Gets the OAEP label used when OAEP padding is in use.
- .IP """oaep-label"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_OAEP_LABEL\fR) <octet string>" 4
- .IX Item """oaep-label"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_OAEP_LABEL) <octet string>"
- Sets the OAEP label used when OAEP padding is in use.
- .IP """tls-client-version"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_CLIENT_VERSION\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
- .IX Item """tls-client-version"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_CLIENT_VERSION) <unsigned integer>"
- The TLS protocol version first requested by the client.
- .IP """tls-negotiated-version"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_CLIENT_VERSION\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
- .IX Item """tls-negotiated-version"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_TLS_CLIENT_VERSION) <unsigned integer>"
- The negotiated TLS protocol version.
- .IP """implicit-rejection"" (\fBOSSL_PKEY_PARAM_IMPLICIT_REJECTION\fR) <unsigned integer>" 4
- .IX Item """implicit-rejection"" (OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_IMPLICIT_REJECTION) <unsigned integer>"
- Gets of sets the use of the implicit rejection mechanism for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
- decryption. When set (non zero value), the decryption API will return
- a deterministically random value if the PKCS#1 v1.5 padding check fails.
- This makes exploitation of the Bleichenbacher significantly harder, even
- if the code using the RSA decryption API is not implemented in side-channel
- free manner. Set by default. Requires provider support.
- .PP
- The OpenSSL FIPS provider also supports the following parameters:
- .IP """fips-indicator"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR\fR) <integer>" 4
- .IX Item """fips-indicator"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_FIPS_APPROVED_INDICATOR) <integer>"
- A getter that returns 1 if the operation is FIPS approved, or 0 otherwise.
- This may be used after calling either \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt()\fR or
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt()\fR. It may return 0 if "key-check" is set to 0.
- .IP """key-check"" (\fBOSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_FIPS_KEY_CHECK\fR) <integer>" 4
- .IX Item """key-check"" (OSSL_ASYM_CIPHER_PARAM_FIPS_KEY_CHECK) <integer>"
- If required this parameter should be set using either
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_encrypt_init()\fR or \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_decrypt_init()\fR.
- The default value of 1 causes an error during the init if the key is not FIPS
- approved (e.g. The key has a security strength of less than 112 bits). Setting
- this to 0 will ignore the error and set the approved "fips-indicator" to 0.
- This option breaks FIPS compliance if it causes the approved "fips-indicator"
- to return 0.
- .PP
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_gettable_ctx_params()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_settable_ctx_params()\fR
- get a constant \fBOSSL_PARAM\fR\|(3) array that describes the gettable and settable
- parameters, i.e. parameters that can be used with \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipherget_ctx_params()\fR
- and \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_set_ctx_params()\fR respectively.
- .SH "RETURN VALUES"
- .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
- \&\fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_newctx()\fR and \fBOSSL_FUNC_asym_cipher_dupctx()\fR should return the newly
- created provider side asymmetric cipher context, or NULL on failure.
- .PP
- All other functions should return 1 for success or 0 on error.
