* Major pgcrypto changes:Bruce Momjian2005-07-101-6/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* - Add Fortuna PRNG to pgcrypto.Bruce Momjian2005-07-101-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | - 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. Marko Kreen
* pgcrypto update:Neil Conway2005-03-211-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
* pgcrypto update:Neil Conway2005-03-211-1/+23
| | | | | | | | | * 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 Marko Kreen
* * construct "struct {} list [] = {}" confuses pgindent - split those.Neil Conway2005-03-211-9/+6
| | | | | | | | | | It was a bad style to begin with, and now several loops can be clearer. * pgcrypto.c: Fix function comments * crypt-gensalt.c, crypt-blowfish.c: stop messing with errno * openssl.c: use px_free instead pfree * px.h: make redefining px_alloc/px_realloc/px_free easier Marko Kreen
* make sure the $Id tags are converted to $PostgreSQL as well ...PostgreSQL Daemon2003-11-291-1/+1

* Need sys/param.h for endianness macros.Peter Eisentraut2002-10-211-1/+2

* * include <endian.h> is not enough, include sys/types.h tooBruce Momjian2001-11-301-1/+2

* * When postgres.h does not define BYTE_ENDIAN pgcryptoBruce Momjian2001-11-291-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | produces garbage. I learned the hard way that #if UNDEFINED_1 == UNDEFINED_2 #error "gcc is idiot" #endif prints "gcc is idiot" ... Affected are MD5/SHA1 in internal library, and also HMAC-MD5/HMAC-SHA1/ crypt-md5 which use them. Blowfish is ok, also Rijndael on at least x86. Big thanks to Daniel Holtzman who send me a build log which contained warning: md5.c:246: warning: `X' defined but not used Yes, gcc is that helpful... Please apply this. -- marko
* pgcrypto uses non-standard type uint, which causes compileBruce Momjian2001-11-201-24/+24
| | | | | | | | | failures on FreeBSD. This patch replaces uint -> unsigned. This was reported by Daniel Holtzman against 0.4pre3 standalone package, but it needs fixing in contrib/pgcrypto too. Marko Kreen
* New pgindent run with fixes suggested by Tom. Patch manually reviewed,Bruce Momjian2001-11-051-2/+2
| | | | initdb/regression tests pass.
* pgindent run on all C files. Java run to follow. initdb/regressionBruce Momjian2001-10-251-73/+77
| | | | tests pass.
* Big thanks to Solar Designer who pointed out a bug in bcryptBruce Momjian2001-09-231-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | salt generation code. He also urged using better random source and making possible to choose using bcrypt and xdes rounds more easily. So, here's patch: * For all salt generation, use Solar Designer's own code. This is mostly due fact that his code is more fit for get_random_bytes() style interface. * New function: gen_salt(type, rounds). This lets specify iteration count for algorithm. * random.c: px_get_random_bytes() function. Supported randomness soure: /dev/urandom, OpenSSL PRNG, libc random() Default: /dev/urandom. * Draft description of C API for pgcrypto functions. New files: API, crypt-gensalt.c, random.c Marko Kreen
* Add missing pgcrypto file.Bruce Momjian2001-08-211-0/+177
