not global variables of anonymous enum types. This didn't actually hurt
much because most linkers will just merge the duplicated definitions ...
but some will complain. Per bug #4731 from Ceriel Jacobs.
Backpatch to 8.1 --- the declarations don't exist before that.
padded encryption scheme. Formerly it would try to access res[(unsigned) -1],
which resulted in core dumps on 64-bit machines, and was certainly trouble
waiting to happen on 32-bit machines (though in at least the known case
it was harmless because that byte would be overwritten after return).
Per report from Ken Colson; fix by Marko Kreen.

should be no conflict. But ofcourse, if someone upgrades OpenSSL,
server starts crashing.
Backpatched to 8.1.X.

pgcrypto crypt()/md5 and hmac() leak memory when compiled against
OpenSSL as openssl.c digest ->reset will do two DigestInit calls
against a context. This happened to work with OpenSSL 0.9.6
but not with 0.9.7+.
Reason for the messy code was that I tried to avoid creating
wrapper structure to transport algorithm info and tried to use
OpenSSL context for it. The fix is to create wrapper structure.
It also uses newer digest API to avoid memory allocations
on reset with newer OpenSSLs.
Thanks to Daniel Blaisdell for reporting it.
comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.
the pubkey functions a bit. The actual RSA-specific code
there is tiny, most of the patch consists of reorg of the
pubkey code, as lots of it was written as elgamal-only.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SHLIB section was copy-pasted from somewhere and contains
several unnecessary libs. This cleans it up a bit.
-lcrypt
we don't use system crypt()
-lssl, -lssleay32
no SSL here
-lz in win32 section
already added on previous line
-ldes
The chance anybody has it is pretty low.
And the chance pgcrypto works with it is even lower.
Also trim the win32 section.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is already disabled in Makefile, remove code too.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was bit hasty making the random exponent 'k' a prime. Further researh
shows that Elgamal encryption has no specific needs in respect to k,
any random number is fine.
It is bit different for signing, there it needs to be 'relatively prime'
to p - 1, that means GCD(k, p-1) == 1, which is also a lot lighter than
full primality. As we don't do signing, this can be ignored.
This brings major speedup to Elgamal encryption.

o pgp_mpi_free: Accept NULLs
o pgp_mpi_cksum: result should be 16bit
o Remove function name from error messages - to be similar to other
SQL functions, and it does not match anyway the called function
o remove couple junk lines
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
o Support for RSA encryption
o Big reorg to better separate generic and algorithm-specific code.
o Regression tests for RSA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
o Tom stuck a CVS id into file. I doubt the usefulness of it,
but if it needs to be in the file then rather at the end.
Also tag it as comment for asciidoc.
o Mention bytea vs. text difference
o Couple clarifications
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a choice whether to update it with pgp functions or
remove it. I decided to remove it, updating is pointless.
I've tried to keep the core of pgcrypto relatively independent
from main PostgreSQL, to make it easy to use externally if needed,
and that is good. Eg. that made development of PGP functions much
nicer.
But I have no plans to release it as generic library, so keeping such
doc
up-to-date is waste of time. If anyone is interested in using it in
other products, he can probably bother to read the source too.
Commented source is another thing - I'll try to make another pass
over code to see if there is anything non-obvious that would need
more comments.

OpenSSL 0.9.6x. The DES functions use the older 'des_'
API, but the newer 3DES functions use the 0.9.7x-only
'DES_' API.
I think I just used /usr/include/openssl/des.h for reference
when implementing them, and had upgraded OpenSSL in the
meantime.
Following patch converts DES also to newer API and provides
compatibility functions for OpenSSL < 0.9.7.
I chose this route because:
- openssl.c uses few DES functions.
- compatibility for old 'des_' API is going away at some point
of time from OpenSSL.
- as seen from macros, new API is saner
- Thus pgcrypto supports any OpenSSL version from 0.9.5 to 1.0
Tested with OpenSSL 0.9.6c and 0.9.7e.

of password-based encryption from RFC2440 (OpenPGP).
The goal of this code is to be more featureful encryption solution
than current encrypt(), which only functionality is running cipher
over data.
Compared to encrypt(), pgp_encrypt() does following:
* It uses the equvialent of random Inital Vector to get cipher
into random state before it processes user data
* Stores SHA-1 of the data into result so any modification
will be detected.
* Remembers if data was text or binary - thus it can decrypt
to/from text data. This was a major nuisance for encrypt().
* Stores info about used algorithms with result, so user needs
not remember them - more user friendly!
* Uses String2Key algorithms (similar to crypt()) with random salt
to generate full-length binary key to be used for encrypting.
* Uses standard format for data - you can feed it to GnuPG, if needed.
Optional features (off by default):
* Can use separate session key - user data will be encrypted
with totally random key, which will be encrypted with S2K
generated key and attached to result.
* Data compression with zlib.
* Can convert between CRLF<->LF line-endings - to get fully
RFC2440-compliant behaviour. This is off by default as
pgcrypto does not know the line-endings of user data.
Interface is simple:
pgp_encrypt(data text, key text) returns bytea
pgp_decrypt(data text, key text) returns text
pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea
pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea
To change parameters (cipher, compression, mdc):
pgp_encrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns bytea
pgp_decrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns text
pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea
pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea
Parameter names I lifted from gpg:
pgp_encrypt('message', 'key', 'compress-algo=1,cipher-algo=aes256')
For text data, pgp_encrypt simply encrypts the PostgreSQL internal data.
This maps to RFC2440 data type 't' - 'extenally specified encoding'.
But this may cause problems if data is dumped and reloaded into database
which as different internal encoding. My next goal is to implement data
type 'u' - which means data is in UTF-8 encoding by converting internal
encoding to UTF-8 and back. And there wont be any compatibility
problems with current code, I think its ok to submit this without UTF-8
encoding by converting internal encoding to UTF-8 and back. And there
wont be any compatibility problems with current code, I think its ok to
submit this without UTF-8 support.
Here is v4 of PGP encrypt. This depends on previously sent
Fortuna-patch, as it uses the px_add_entropy function.
- New function: pgp_key_id() for finding key id's.
- Add SHA1 of user data and key into RNG pools. We need to get
randomness from somewhere, and it is in user best interests
to contribute.
- Regenerate pgp-armor test for SQL_ASCII database.
- Cleanup the key handling so that the pubkey support is less
hackish.
Marko Kreen
- Move openssl random provider to openssl.c and builtin provider
to internal.c
- Make px_random_bytes use Fortuna, instead of giving error.
- Retarget random.c to aquiring system randomness, for initial seeding
of Fortuna. There is ATM 2 functions for Windows,
reader from /dev/urandom and the regular time()/getpid() silliness.

functions as STRICT, and all functions except gen_salt() as IMMUTABLE.
gen_salt() is VOLATILE.
Although the functions are now STRICT, I left their PG_ARGISNULL()
checks in place as a protective measure for users who install the
new code but use old (non-STRICT) catalog entries (e.g., restored
from a dump). Per recent discussion in pgsql-hackers.
Patch from Michael Fuhr.
to make. We ship the table file in the tarball and so this dependency
just opens file timestamp skew problems without doing anything useful.
(Not that it should hurt, either ... except for cross-compile builds.)
(currently in beta) when cryptolib = openssl. According to the
following checkin message from several years ago, OpenSSL application
developers should no longer rely on <openssl/evp.h> to include
everything they need:
http://cvs.openssl.org/chngview?cn=9888
This patch adds the necessary header files. It doesn't appear to
break anything when building against OpenSSL 0.9.7.
BTW, core appears to build and work fine with OpenSSL 0.9.8. I've
built 7.3 through HEAD against 0.9.8-beta6 without noticing any
problems.
Michael Fuhr
* test error handling
* add tests for des, 3des, cast5
* add some tests to blowfish, rijndael
* Makefile: ability to specify different tests for different crypto
libraries, so we can skip des, 3des and cast5 for builtin.
Marko Kreen
Reserve px_get_random_bytes() for strong randomness,
add new function px_get_pseudo_random_bytes() for
weak randomness and use it in gen_salt().
On openssl case, use RAND_pseudo_bytes() for
px_get_pseudo_random_bytes().
Final result is that is user has not configured random
souce but kept the 'silly' one, gen_salt() keeps
working, but pgp_encrypt() will throw error.
Marko Kreen
* openssl.c: Add 3des and AES support
* README.pgcrypto: list only supported ciphers for openssl
OpenSSL has pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_NO_AES, which
isn't that helpful for detecting if it _does_ exist.
Thus the hack with AES_ENCRYPT.
Marko Kreen
* Use error codes instead of -1
* px_strerror for new error codes
* calling convention change for px_gen_salt - return error code
* use px_strerror in pgcrypto.c
