Recent Node.js seems to have dropped support for ripemd160.
Thus, properly check the availability of hashes before using them.
Also, add Node.js 18 to CI.
Calling `openpgp.decrypt` with a message that contains encrypted session keys
followed by a non-encrypted packet (e.g. Literal or Compressed Data packet)
used to succeed, even if a wrong passphrase/key was provided.
With this change, the operation will always fail, and the user is warned that
the data was not encrypted.
NB: a message that did not contain any encrypted session key packet would fail
to decrypt even prior to this change.
The relevant packets will be considered unsupported instead of malformed.
Hence, parsing them will succeed by default (based on
`config.ignoreUnsupportedPackets`).
When parsing errors are being ignored, packets that fail to parse are now
included in the resulting packet list as `UnparseablePacket`s . This way, when
parsing keys that contain unparsable (sub)key, we avoid associating the
following non-key packets to the wrong key entity.
On serialization, `UnparseablePacket`s are also included by writing their raw
packet body as it was read.
Breaking change: `openpgp.encryptKey` now throws if an empty string is given as
passphrase. The operation used to succeed, but the resulting key was left in an
inconsistent state, and e.g. serialization would not be possible.
Non-breaking changes:
- `options.passphrase` in `generateKey` and `reformatKey` now defaults to
`undefined` instead of empty string. Passing an empty string does not throw for
now, but this might change in the future to align with `encryptKey`'s
behaviour.
- In TS, add `GenerateKeyOptions` as alias of `KeyOptions`, to clarify its
scope.
In browsers, encryption of messages larger than 3MB (or a custom value
based on `config.minBytesForWebCrypto`) would throw the error `Error encrypting
message: 'crypto.getCipher' is not a function`.
The issue was introduced in v5.1 .
The updated stream types improve type inference and checks, in particular when
using ReadableStreams.
Also:
- add `EncryptSessionKeyOptions` to make it easier to declare wrapper functions
of `encryptSessionKey`;
- tighter output type inference in `Message.getText()` and `.getLiteralData()`.
Implement optional constant-time decryption flow to hinder Bleichenbacher-like
attacks against RSA- and ElGamal public-key encrypted session keys.
Changes:
- Add `config.constantTimePKCS1Decryption` to enable the constant-time
processing (defaults to `false`). The constant-time option is off by default
since it has measurable performance impact on message decryption, and it is
only helpful in specific application scenarios (more info below).
- Add `config.constantTimePKCS1DecryptionSupportedSymmetricAlgorithms`
(defaults to the AES algorithms). The set of supported ciphers is restricted by
default since the number of algorithms negatively affects performance.
Bleichenbacher-like attacks are of concern for applications where both of the
following conditions are met:
1. new/incoming messages are automatically decrypted (without user
interaction);
2. an attacker can determine how long it takes to decrypt each message (e.g.
due to decryption errors being logged remotely).
Breaking change:
when generating new subkeys through `key.addSubkey()`, we now check
`config.rejectCurves` and prevent adding subkeys using the corresponding
curves.
By default, `config.rejectCurves` includes the brainpool curves
(`brainpoolP256r1`, `brainpoolP384r1`, `brainpoolP512r1`) and the Bitcoin curve
(`secp256k1`).
This is a follow up to #1395 , which introduced the same check to
`openpgp.generateKey`.
In several packet classes, we used to store string identifiers for public-key,
aead, cipher or hash algorithms. To make the code consistent and to avoid
having to convert to/from string values, we now always store integer values
instead, e.g. `enums.symmetric.aes128` is used instead of `'aes128'`.
This is not expected to be a breaking change for most library users. Note that
the type of `Key.getAlgorithmInfo()` and of the session key objects returned
and accepted by top-level functions remain unchanged.
Affected classes (type changes for some properties and method's arguments):
- `PublicKeyPacket`, `PublicSubkeyPacket`, `SecretKeyPacket`,
`SecretSubkeyPacket`
- `SymEncryptedIntegrityProtectedDataPacket`, `AEADEncryptedDataPacket`,
`SymmetricallyEncryptedDataPacket`
- `LiteralDataPacket`, `CompressedDataPacket`
- `PublicKeyEncryptedSessionKey`, `SymEncryptedSessionKeyPacket`
- `SignaturePacket`
Other potentially breaking changes:
- Removed property `AEADEncryptedDataPacket.aeadAlgo`, since it was redudant
given `.aeadAlgorithm`.
- Renamed `AEADEncryptedDataPacket.cipherAlgo` -> `.cipherAlgorithm`
Remove line separators (U+2028) and paragraph separators (U+2029)
from randomly generated test messages. These messages cause the
test to fail due to the difference in handling them between
multiline regexes and OpenPGP.js-internal functions.
Using `openpgp.reformatKey` with the default `date` option would render
messages signed with the original key unverifiable by OpenPGP.js v5 (not v4),
since the signing key would not be considered valid at the time of signing (due
to its self-certification signature being in the future, compared to the
message signature creation time).
This commit adds `config.allowInsecureVerificationWithReformattedKeys` (false
by default) to make it possible to still verify such messages with the
reformatted key provided the key is valid at the `date` specified for
verification (which defaults to the current time).
Support build processes that replace `process.env.NODE_ENV` with a
constant string (such as webpack and Vite) by using
`process.env.NODE_ENV` directly, instead of `globalThis.process &&
globalThis.process.env.NODE_ENV`, but do so inside a try/catch in case
`process` is not defined.

Breaking changes:
- throw error on key generation if the requested public key algorithm is
included in `config.rejectPublicKeyAlgorithms`;
- add `config.rejectCurves` to blacklist a set of ECC curves, to prevent keys
using those curves from being generated, or being used to
encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify messages.
By default, `config.rejectCurves` includes the brainpool curves
(`brainpoolP256r1`, `brainpoolP384r1`, `brainpoolP512r1`) and the Bitcoin curve
(`secp256k1`). This is because it's unclear whether these curves will be
standardised[1], and we prefer to blacklist them already, rather than introduce
a breaking change after release.
