- `openpgp.generateKey`, `reformatKey` and `revokeKey` take a new `format`
option, whose possible values are: `'armor', 'binary', 'object'` (default is
`'armor'`).
- `generateKey` and `reformatKey` now return an object of the form `{
publicKey, privateKey, revocationCertificate }`, where the type of `publicKey`
and `privateKey` depends on `options.format`:
* if `format: 'armor'` then `privateKey, publicKey` are armored strings;
* if `format: 'binary'` then `privateKey, publicKey` are `Uint8Array`;
* if `format: 'object'` then `privateKey, publicKey` are `PrivateKey` and
`PublicKey` objects respectively;
- `revokeKey` now returns `{ publicKey, privateKey }`, where:
* if a `PrivateKey` is passed as `key` input, `privateKey, publicKey` are of the
requested format;
* if a `PublicKey` is passed as `key` input, `publicKey` is of the requested format,
while `privateKey` is `null` (previously, in this case the `privateKey` field
was not defined).
Breaking changes:
- In `revokeKey`, if no `format` option is specified, the returned `publicKey,
privateKey` are armored strings (they used to be objects).
- In `generateKey` and `reformatKey`, the `key` value is no longer returned.
- For all three functions, the `publicKeyArmored` and `privateKeyArmored`
values are no longer returned.
- Add `User.mainKey` field to store a reference to the corresponding `Key`,
allowing to simplify calling some `User` methods.
- Rename `User.sign` to `User.certify`, since it's used for third-party
certifications and not as a counterpart of `User.verify`, which deals with
self-signatures.
- Change `Key.update` behaviour to store a copy of newly added users and
subkeys. Pointing to the same instance could give issues as the lists of
certifications and signatures could be altered by both the source key and the
updated one.
Breaking changes in `User` methods:
- `User.constructor(userPacket)` -> `constructor(userPacket, mainKey)`
- `User.sign(primaryKey, signingKeys, date, config)` -> `.certify(signingKeys,
date, config)`
- `User.verify(primaryKey, date = new Date(), config)` -> `.verify(date = new
Date(), config)`
- `User.verifyCertificate(primaryKey, certificate, verificationKeys, date = new
Date(), config)` -> `.verifyCertificate(certificate, verificationKeys, date =
new Date(), config)`
- `User.verifyAllCertifications(primaryKey, verificationKeys, date = new
Date(), config)` -> `.verifyAllCertifications(verificationKeys, date = new
Date(), config)`
- `User.isRevoked(primaryKey, certificate, keyPacket, date = new Date(),
config)` -> `.isRevoked(certificate, keyPacket, date = new Date(), config)`
- `User.update(sourceUser, primaryKey, date, config)` -> `.update(sourceUser,
date, config)`
- Throw on signature parsing (e.g. in `openpgp.readSignature`) if the
creation time subpacket is missing
- `SignaturePacket.verify` now directly checks for signature creation
and expiration times. This makes it easier to thoroughly check the
validity of signatures. Also:
- `openpgp.revokeKey` now takes a `date` to check the provided
revocation certificate
- `openpgp.decryptSessionKeys` now takes a `date` to check the
validity of the provided private keys
- whenever a `date` is used internally, the function accepts a
`date` param to allow passing the correct date
- Add tests for all of the above
- Like `openpgp.generateKey`, `openpgp.reformatKey` now also requires
`options.userIDs`
- Simplify calling `SubKey.isRevoked/update/getExpirationTime` by
adding the `SubKey.mainKey` field to hold the reference of the
corresponding `Key`
Breaking changes in low-level functions:
- Added/removed `date` params:
- `Key.update(key, config)` -> `update(key, date, config)`
- `Key.applyRevocationCertificate(revocationCertificate, config)` ->
`applyRevocationCertificate(revocationCertificate, date, config)`
- `Key.signAllUsers(privateKeys, config)` ->
`signAllUsers(privateKeys, date, config)`
- `Key.verifyAllUsers(keys, config)` ->
`verifyAllUsers(keys, date, config)`
- `new SignaturePacket(date)` -> `new SignaturePacket()`
- `SignaturePacket.sign(key, data, detached)` ->
`sign(key, data, date, detached)`
- `Message.sign(primaryKey, privateKeys, config)` ->
`sign(primaryKey, privateKeys, date, config)`
- `Message.decrypt(privateKeys, passwords, sessionKeys, config)` ->
`decrypt(privateKeys, passwords, sessionKeys, date, config)`
- `Message.decryptSessionKeys(privateKeys, passwords, config)` ->
`decryptSessionKeys(privateKeys, passwords, date, config)`
- Removed `primaryKey` params:
- `SubKey.isRevoked(primaryKey, signature, key, date, config)` ->
`isRevoked(signature, key, date, config)`
- `SubKey.update(subKey, primaryKey, date, config)` ->
`update(subKey, date, config)`
- `SubKey.getExpirationTime(primaryKey, date, config)` ->
`getExpirationTime(date, config)`
- Rename `publicKeys` to `encryptionKeys` or `verificationKeys` depending on their use
- Rename `privateKeys` to `decryptionKeys` or `signingKeys` depending on their use
- Similarly, rename `toUserIDs` to `encryptionUserIDs` and `fromUserIDs` to `signingUserIDs`
To encrypt/decrypt a key, the top-level functions `openpgp.encryptKey` and
`openpgp.decryptKey` should be used instead: these don't mutate the key;
instead, they either return a new encrypted/decrypted key object or throw an
error.
With `Key.prototype.encrypt` and `decrypt`, which mutated the key, it was
possible to end up in an inconsistent state if some (sub)keys could be
decrypted but others couldn't, they would both mutate the key and throw an
error, which is unexpected.
Note that the `keyID` parameter is not supported by `encryptKey`/`decryptKey`,
since partial key decryption is not recommended. If you still need to decrypt
a single subkey or primary key `k`, you can call `k.keyPacket.decrypt(...)`,
followed by `k.keyPacket.validate(...)`. Similarly, for encryption, call
`k.keyPacket.encrypt(...)`.
Additionally, `openpgp.generateKey` now requires `options.userIDs` again,
since otherwise the key is basically unusable. This was a regression from v4,
since we now allow parsing keys without user IDs (but still not using them).
- Use PascalCase for classes, with uppercase acronyms.
- Use camelCase for function and variables. First word/acronym is always
lowercase, otherwise acronyms are uppercase.
Also, make the packet classes' `tag` properties `static`.
- Add `config.rejectPublicKeyAlgorithms` to disallow using the given algorithms
to verify, sign or encrypt new messages or third-party certifications.
- Consider `config.minRsaBits` when signing, verifying and encrypting messages
and third-party certifications, not just on key generation.
- When verifying a message, if the verification key is not found (i.e. not
provided or too weak), the corresponding `signature` will have
`signature.valid=false` (used to be `signature.valid=null`).
`signature.error` will detail whether the key is missing/too weak/etc.
Generating and verifying key certification signatures is still permitted in all cases.
- Rename `config.compression` to `config.preferredCompressionAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.encryptionCipher` to `config.preferredSymmetricAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.preferHashAlgorithm` to `config.preferredHashAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.aeadMode` to `config.preferredAeadAlgorithm`
- When encrypting to public keys, the compression/aead/symmetric algorithm is selected by:
- taking the preferred algorithm specified in config, if it is supported by all recipients
- otherwise, taking the "MUST implement" algorithm specified by rfc4880bis
- When encrypting to passphrases only (no public keys), the preferred algorithms from `config` are always used
- EdDSA signing with a hash algorithm weaker than sha256 is explicitly disallowed (https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-openpgp-rfc4880bis-10.html#section-15-7.2)
Make all `read*` functions accept an options object, so that we can add config
options to them later (for #1166). This is necessary so that we can remove the
global `openpgp.config`, which doesn't work that well when importing
individual functions.
Furthermore, merge `readMessage` and `readArmoredMessage` into one function,
et cetera.
- Remove the boolean return value of various internal functions that throw on
error (the returned value was unused in most cases)
- Update and fix type definitions
Instead of as modules.
Replace *.read with read*, *.readArmored with readArmored*, etc.
Replace cleartext.readArmored with readArmoredCleartextMessage.
Replace message.fromText with Message.fromText, etc.
- Store private and public params separately and by name in objects,
instead of as an array
- Do not keep params in MPI form, but convert them to Uint8Arrays when
generating/parsing the key
- Modify low-level crypto functions to always accept and return
Uint8Arrays instead of BigIntegers
- Move PKCS1 padding to lower level functions
Use `key.keyPacket.validate` instead of `crypto.publicKey.validateParams`, see
https://github.com/openpgpjs/openpgpjs/pull/1116#discussion_r447781386.
Also, `key.decrypt` now only throws on error, no other value is returned.
Also, fix typo (rebase error) that caused tests to fail in Safari for p521.
openpgp.encrypt, sign, encryptSessionKey, encryptKey and decryptKey now
return their result directly without wrapping it in a "result" object.
Also, remove the `detached` and `returnSessionKey` options of
openpgp.encrypt.
Also, switch from returning false to throwing errors in most verify*()
functions, as well as in `await signatures[*].verified`, in order to be
able to show more informative error messages.
Backtracking regexes have pathological worst-case performance when
a long line contains a large amount of whitespace not followed by
a newline, since the regex engine will attempt to match the regex
at each whitespace character, read ahead to the non-whitespace non-
newline, declare no match, and try again at the next whitespace.
E.g. try running
util.removeTrailingSpaces(new Array(1e6).join(' ') + 'a').length
which would hang V8.
When not requested, we convert the streams to Uint8Arrays.
This makes the generated key safe to pass to a Worker more than once.
Partially reverts 735aa1da.
When encrypting/signing a stream, this allows you to indicate whether it's a
stream of Strings or Uint8Arrays (using message.fromText or message.fromBinary,
respectively.)
When signing text, this allows you to control whether to create a cleartext
message or a regular armored text message.
When creating a detached signature, it allows you to control whether it's "meant
for" (verifying against) a cleartext message. A cleartext message has trailing
whitespace trimmed before signing. This fixes the case of passing a detached
signature from sign() to encrypt(). Since encrypt() doesn't create a cleartext
message, the signature would be invalid if the text contained lines with
trailing whitespace.
This change corrects verification of certifications over User Attributes
(such as photos).
Before this change the code did not differentiate between User IDs and
User Attributes as both of them were stored in `data.userid` [0] and
incorrectly used the User ID constant (0xB4) for both cases.
This change fixes the bug by storing User IDs in `userId` property and
User Attributes in `userAttribute` property. The check for property
existence has been modified to avoid comparisons with `undefined` as the
`User` class sets `null` for not assigned packets instead of
`undefined`.
Only data structures for signing and verification were modified and not
the properties used in the `User` class.
