Type
|
|
data DSA |
The type of a DSA key, includes parameters p, q, g.
|
|
|
Key and parameter generation
|
|
generateParameters |
:: Int | The number of bits in the generated prime: 512 <= x <= 1024
| -> Maybe ByteString | optional seed, its length must be 20 bytes
| -> IO (Int, Int, Integer, Integer, Integer) | (iteration count, generator count, p, q, g)
| Generate DSA parameters (*not* a key, but required for a key). This is a
compute intensive operation. See FIPS 186-2, app 2. This agrees with the
test vectors given in FIP 186-2, app 5
|
|
|
generateKey |
:: Integer | p
| -> Integer | q
| -> Integer | g
| -> IO DSA | | Generate a new DSA key, given valid parameters
|
|
|
generateParametersAndKey |
:: Int | The number of bits in the generated prime: 512 <= x <= 1024
| -> Maybe ByteString | optional seed, its length must be 20 bytes
| -> IO DSA | | A utility function to generate both the parameters and the key pair at the
same time. Saves serialising and deserialising the parameters too
|
|
|
Signing and verification
|
|
signDigestedData :: DSA -> ByteString -> IO (Integer, Integer) |
Sign pre-digested data. The DSA specs call for SHA1 to be used so, if you
use anything else, YMMV. Returns a pair of Integers which, together, are
the signature
|
|
verifyDigestedData :: DSA -> ByteString -> (Integer, Integer) -> IO Bool |
Verify pre-digested data given a signature.
|
|
Extracting fields of DSA objects
|
|
dsaP :: DSA -> IO (Maybe Integer) |
Return the public prime number of the key.
|
|
dsaQ :: DSA -> IO (Maybe Integer) |
Return the public 160-bit subprime, q | p-1 of the key.
|
|
dsaG :: DSA -> IO (Maybe Integer) |
Return the public generator of subgroup of the key.
|
|
dsaPrivate :: DSA -> IO (Maybe Integer) |
Return the private key x.
|
|
dsaPublic :: DSA -> IO (Maybe Integer) |
Return the public key y = g^x.
|
|
dsaToTuple :: DSA -> IO (Integer, Integer, Integer, Integer, Maybe Integer) |
Convert a DSA object to a tuple of its members in the order p, q, g,
public, private. If this is a public key, private will be Nothing
|
|
tupleToDSA :: (Integer, Integer, Integer, Integer, Maybe Integer) -> IO DSA |
Convert a tuple of members (in the same format as from dsaToTuple) into a
DSA object
