.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
function performs password encryption, based on the
|
|
.Tn NBS
|
|
Data Encryption Standard (DES).
|
|
Additional code has been added to deter key search attempts.
|
|
The first argument to
|
|
.Nm crypt
|
|
is a
|
|
.Dv null Ns -terminated
|
|
string, typically a user's typed password.
|
|
The second is in one of two forms:
|
|
if it begins with an underscore (``_'') then an extended format is used
|
|
in interpreting both the the key and the setting, as outlined below.
|
|
.Ss Extended crypt:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar key
|
|
is divided into groups of 8 characters (the last group is null-padded)
|
|
and the low-order 7 bits of each each character (56 bits per group) are
|
|
used to form the DES key as follows:
|
|
the first group of 56 bits becomes the initial DES key.
|
|
For each additional group, the XOR of the encryption of the current DES
|
|
key with itself and the group bits becomes the next DES key.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The setting is a 9-character array consisting of an underscore followed
|
|
by 4 bytes of iteration count and 4 bytes of salt.
|
|
These are encoded as printable characters, 6 bits per character,
|
|
least significant character first.
|
|
The values 0 to 63 are encoded as ``./0-9A-Za-z''.
|
|
This allows 24 bits for both
|
|
.Fa count
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa salt .
|
|
.Ss "Traditional" crypt:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The first 8 bytes of the key are null-padded, and the low-order 7 bits of
|
|
each character is used to form the 56-bit
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
key.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The setting is a 2-character array of the ASCII-encoded salt.
|
|
Thus only 12 bits of
|
|
.Fa salt
|
|
are used.
|
|
.Fa count
|
|
is set to 25.
|
|
.Ss Algorithm:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa salt
|
|
introduces disorder in the
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
algorithm in one of 16777216 or 4096 possible ways
|
|
(ie. with 24 or 12 bits: if bit
|
|
.Em i
|
|
of the
|
|
.Ar salt
|
|
is set, then bits
|
|
.Em i
|
|
and
|
|
.Em i+24
|
|
are swapped in the
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
E-box output).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The DES key is used to encrypt a 64-bit constant using
|
|
.Ar count
|
|
iterations of
|
|
.Tn DES .
|
|
The value returned is a
|
|
.Dv null Ns -terminated
|
|
string, 20 or 13 bytes (plus null) in length, consisting of the
|
|
.Ar setting
|
|
followed by the encoded 64-bit encryption.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functions,
|
|
.Fn encrypt ,
|
|
.Fn setkey ,
|
|
.Fn des_setkey
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn des_cipher
|
|
provide access to the
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
algorithm itself.
|
|
.Fn setkey
|
|
is passed a 64-byte array of binary values (numeric 0 or 1).
|
|
A 56-bit key is extracted from this array by dividing the
|
|
array into groups of 8, and ignoring the last bit in each group.
|
|
That bit is reserved for a byte parity check by DES, but is ignored
|
|
by these functions.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa block
|
|
argument to
|
|
.Fn encrypt
|
|
is also a 64-byte array of binary values.
|
|
If the value of
|
|
.Fa flag
|
|
is 0,
|
|
.Fa block
|
|
is encrypted otherwise it is decrypted.
|
|
The result is returned in the original array
|
|
.Fa block
|
|
after using the key specified by
|
|
.Fn setkey
|
|
to process it.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The argument to
|
|
.Fn des_setkey
|
|
is a character array of length 8.
|
|
The least significant bit (the parity bit) in each character is ignored,
|
|
and the remaining bits are concatenated to form a 56-bit key.
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn des_cipher
|
|
encrypts (or decrypts if
|
|
.Fa count
|
|
is negative) the 64-bits stored in the 8 characters at
|
|
.Fa in
|
|
using
|
|
.Xr abs 3
|
|
of
|
|
.Fa count
|
|
iterations of
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
and stores the 64-bit result in the 8 characters at
|
|
.Fa out
|
|
(which may be the same as
|
|
.Fa in
|
|
).
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa salt
|
|
specifies perturbations to the
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
E-box output as described above.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
returns a pointer to the encrypted value on success, and NULL on failure.
|
|
The functions
|
|
.Fn setkey ,
|
|
.Fn encrypt ,
|
|
.Fn des_setkey ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn des_cipher
|
|
return 0 on success and 1 on failure.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn crypt ,
|
|
.Fn setkey
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn des_setkey
|
|
functions all manipulate the same key space.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
function returns a pointer to static data, and subsequent calls to
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
will modify the same object.
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
A rotor-based
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
function appeared in
|
|
.At v6 .
|
|
The current style
|
|
.Fn crypt
|
|
first appeared in
|
|
.At v7 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This library (FreeSec 1.0) was developed outside the United States of America
|
|
as an unencumbered replacement for the U.S.-only NetBSD libcrypt encryption
|
|
library.
|
|
Users should be aware that this code (and programs staticly linked with it)
|
|
may not be exported from the U.S., although it apparently can be imported.
