Function Documentation
int mbedtls_rsa_check_privkey | ( | const mbedtls_rsa_context * | ctx ) |
This function checks if a context contains an RSA private key and perform basic consistency checks.
- Note:
- The consistency checks performed by this function not only ensure that mbedtls_rsa_private() can be called successfully on the given context, but that the various parameters are mutually consistent with high probability, in the sense that mbedtls_rsa_public() and mbedtls_rsa_private() are inverses.
- Warning:
- This function should catch accidental misconfigurations like swapping of parameters, but it cannot establish full trust in neither the quality nor the consistency of the key material that was used to setup the given RSA context:
- Consistency: Imported parameters that are irrelevant for the implementation might be silently dropped. If dropped, the current function does not have access to them, and therefore cannot check them. See mbedtls_rsa_complete(). If you want to check the consistency of the entire content of an PKCS1-encoded RSA private key, for example, you should use mbedtls_rsa_validate_params() before setting up the RSA context. Additionally, if the implementation performs empirical checks, these checks substantiate but do not guarantee consistency.
- Quality: This function is not expected to perform extended quality assessments like checking that the prime factors are safe. Additionally, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure the trustworthiness of the source of his RSA parameters, which goes beyond what is effectively checkable by the library.
- Parameters:
-
ctx The RSA context to check.
- Returns:
0
on success.-
An
MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_XXX
error code on failure.
int mbedtls_rsa_check_pub_priv | ( | const mbedtls_rsa_context * | pub, |
const mbedtls_rsa_context * | prv | ||
) |
This function checks a public-private RSA key pair.
It checks each of the contexts, and makes sure they match.
- Parameters:
-
pub The RSA context holding the public key. prv The RSA context holding the private key.
- Returns:
0
on success.-
An
MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_XXX
error code on failure.
int mbedtls_rsa_check_pubkey | ( | const mbedtls_rsa_context * | ctx ) |
This function checks if a context contains at least an RSA public key.
If the function runs successfully, it is guaranteed that enough information is present to perform an RSA public key operation using mbedtls_rsa_public().
- Parameters:
-
ctx The RSA context to check.
- Returns:
0
on success.-
An
MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_XXX
error code on failure.
int mbedtls_rsa_complete | ( | mbedtls_rsa_context * | ctx ) |
This function completes an RSA context from a set of imported core parameters.
To setup an RSA public key, precisely N
and E
must have been imported.
To setup an RSA private key, sufficient information must be present for the other parameters to be derivable.
The default implementation supports the following:
-
Derive
P
,Q
fromN
,D
,E
. -
Derive
N
,D
fromP
,Q
,E
.
Alternative implementations need not support these.
If this function runs successfully, it guarantees that the RSA context can be used for RSA operations without the risk of failure or crash.
- Warning:
- This function need not perform consistency checks for the imported parameters. In particular, parameters that are not needed by the implementation might be silently discarded and left unchecked. To check the consistency of the key material, see mbedtls_rsa_check_privkey().
- Parameters:
-
ctx The initialized RSA context holding imported parameters.
- Returns:
0
on success.- MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_BAD_INPUT_DATA if the attempted derivations failed.

mbedtls_mpi * | P, | ||
mbedtls_mpi * | Q, | ||
mbedtls_mpi * | D, | ||
mbedtls_mpi * | E | ||
) |
This function exports the core parameters of an RSA key.
If this function runs successfully, the non-NULL buffers pointed to by N
, P
, Q
, D
, and E
are fully written, with additional unused space filled leading by zero Bytes.
Possible reasons for returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION:
- An alternative RSA implementation is in use, which stores the key externally, and either cannot or should not export it into RAM.
-
A SW or HW implementation might not support a certain deduction. For example,
P
,Q
fromN
,D
, andE
if the former are not part of the implementation.
If the function fails due to an unsupported operation, the RSA context stays intact and remains usable.
- Parameters:
-
ctx The initialized RSA context. N The MPI to hold the RSA modulus, or NULL. P The MPI to hold the first prime factor of N
, or NULL.Q The MPI to hold the second prime factor of N
, or NULL.D The MPI to hold the private exponent, or NULL. E The MPI to hold the public exponent, or NULL.
- Returns:
0
on success.- MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION if exporting the requested parameters cannot be done due to missing functionality or because of security policies.
- A non-zero return code on any other failure.

void mbedtls_rsa_init | ( | mbedtls_rsa_context * | ctx, |
int | padding, | ||
int | hash_id | ||
) |
This function initializes an RSA context.
- Note:
- Set padding to MBEDTLS_RSA_PKCS_V21 for the RSAES-OAEP encryption scheme and the RSASSA-PSS signature scheme.
-
The
hash_id
parameter is ignored when using MBEDTLS_RSA_PKCS_V15 padding. -
The choice of padding mode is strictly enforced for private key operations, since there might be security concerns in mixing padding modes. For public key operations it is a default value, which can be overriden by calling specific
rsa_rsaes_xxx
orrsa_rsassa_xxx
functions. -
The hash selected in
hash_id
is always used for OEAP encryption. For PSS signatures, it is always used for making signatures, but can be overriden for verifying them. If set to MBEDTLS_MD_NONE, it is always overriden.
- Parameters:
-
ctx The RSA context to initialize. padding Selects padding mode: MBEDTLS_RSA_PKCS_V15 or MBEDTLS_RSA_PKCS_V21. hash_id The hash identifier of mbedtls_md_type_t type, if padding
is MBEDTLS_RSA_PKCS_V21.

) |
This function performs an RSA operation, then removes the message padding.
It is the generic wrapper for performing a PKCS#1 decryption operation using the mode

output_max_len
should be as large as the sizectx->len
ofctx->N
(for example, 128 Bytes if RSA-1024 is used) to be able to hold an arbitrary decrypted message. If it is not large enough to hold the decryption of the particular ciphertext provided, the function returnsMBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_OUTPUT_TOO_LARGE
. -
The input buffer must be as large as the size of
ctx->N
. For example, 128 Bytes if RSA-1024 is used.

) |
This function performs an RSA private key operation.
- Note:
- The input and output buffers must be large enough. For example, 128 Bytes if RSA-1024 is used.
- Blinding is used if and only if a PRNG is provided.
- If blinding is used, both the base of exponentation and the exponent are blinded, providing protection against some side-channel attacks.
- Warning:
- It is deprecated and a security risk to not provide a PRNG here and thereby prevent the use of blinding. Future versions of the library may enforce the presence of a PRNG.
- Parameters:
-
ctx The RSA context. f_rng The RNG function. Needed for blinding. p_rng The RNG context. input The input buffer. output The output buffer.
- Returns:
0
