SRP_create_verifier, SRP_create_verifier_BN, SRP_check_known_gN_param, SRP_get_default_gN - SRP authentication primitives
#include <openssl/srp.h>
char *SRP_create_verifier_BN(const char *user, const char *pass, BIGNUM **salt, BIGNUM **verifier, const BIGNUM *N, const BIGNUM *g); char *SRP_create_verifier(const char *user, const char *pass, char **salt, char **verifier, const char *N, const char *g);
char *SRP_check_known_gN_param(const BIGNUM *g, const BIGNUM *N); SRP_gN *SRP_get_default_gN(const char *id);
The SRP_create_verifier_BN()
function creates an SRP password verifier from
the supplied parameters as defined in section 2.4 of RFC 5054.
On successful exit *verifier will point to a newly allocated BIGNUM containing
the verifier and (if a salt was not provided) *salt will be populated with a
newly allocated BIGNUM containing a random salt. If *salt is not NULL then
the provided salt is used instead.
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated *salt and *verifier
BIGNUMS (use BN_free(3)).
The SRP_create_verifier()
function is similar to SRP_create_verifier_BN()
but
all numeric parameters are in a non-standard base64 encoding originally designed
for compatibility with libsrp. This is mainly present for historical compatibility
and its use is discouraged.
It is possible to pass NULL as N and an SRP group id as g instead to
load the appropriate gN values (see SRP_get_default_gN()).
If both N and g are NULL the 8192-bit SRP group parameters are used.
The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated *salt and *verifier
(use OPENSSL_free(3)).
The SRP_check_known_gN_param()
function checks that g and N are valid
SRP group parameters from RFC 5054 appendix A.
The SRP_get_default_gN()
function returns the gN parameters for the RFC 5054 id
SRP group size.
The known ids are "1024", "1536", "2048", "3072", "4096", "6144" and "8192".
SRP_create_verifier_BN()
returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
SRP_create_verifier()
returns NULL on failure and a non-NULL value on success:
"*" if N is not NULL, the selected group id otherwise. This value should
not be freed.
SRP_check_known_gN_param()
returns the text representation of the group id
(ie. the prime bit size) or NULL if the arguments are not valid SRP group parameters.
This value should not be freed.
SRP_get_default_gN()
returns NULL if id is not a valid group size,
or the 8192-bit group parameters if id is NULL.
Generate and store a 8192 bit password verifier (error handling omitted for clarity):
#include <openssl/bn.h> #include <openssl/srp.h>
const char *username = "username"; const char *password = "password";
SRP_VBASE *srpData = SRP_VBASE_new(NULL);
SRP_gN *gN = SRP_get_default_gN("8192");
BIGNUM *salt = NULL, *verifier = NULL; SRP_create_verifier_BN(username, password, &salt, &verifier, gN->N, gN->g);
SRP_user_pwd *pwd = SRP_user_pwd_new(); SRP_user_pwd_set1_ids(pwd, username, NULL); SRP_user_pwd_set0_sv(pwd, salt, verifier); SRP_user_pwd_set_gN(pwd, gN->g, gN->N);
SRP_VBASE_add0_user(srpData, pwd);
openssl-srp(1), SRP_VBASE_new(3), SRP_user_pwd_new(3)
