- 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`
This change allows us to only load the `ReadableStream` polyfill when
needed without behaving inconsistently in the external API.
Users of the library should use the global `ReadableStream` or Node.js
`stream.Readable` instead, or import a polyfill if needed. This patch
loosens the detection criteria such that polyfilled streams are better
detected.
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.
Refactor functions to take the configuration as a parameter.
This allows setting a config option for a single function call, whereas
setting `openpgp.config` could lead to concurrency-related issues when
multiple async function calls are made at the same time.
`openpgp.config` is used as default for unset config values in top-level
functions.
`openpgp.config` is used as default config object in low-level functions
(i.e., when calling a low-level function, it may be required to pass
`{ ...openpgp.config, modifiedConfig: modifiedValue }`).
Also,
- remove `config.rsaBlinding`: blinding is now always applied to RSA decryption
- remove `config.debug`: debugging mode can be enabled by setting
`process.env.NODE_ENV = 'development'`
- remove `config.useNative`: native crypto is always used when available
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.
`key.isDecrypted()` now returns true if either the primary key or any subkey
is decrypted.
Additionally, implement `SecretKeyPacket.prototype.makeDummy` for encrypted
keys.
- 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
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.
This change adds support for binary (non-human-readable) values in
signature notations through `rawNotations` property on signature objects.
Human-readable notations will additionally appear in `notations` object
where the value of the notation will be deserialized into a string.
Additionally the check for human-readable flag was modified to check the
existence of the flag instead of comparison with the whole value.
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.
This PR adds four config options to configure whether and how to load
indutny/elliptic: use_indutny_elliptic, external_indutny_elliptic,
indutny_elliptic_path and indutny_elliptic_fetch_options.
Also:
- Use tweetnacl.js instead of indutny/elliptic for curve25519 key generation
- Don't initialize indutny's curve25519, improving performance when using that curve
- Verify NIST signatures using Web Crypto instead of indutny/elliptic when not streaming
- Move KeyPair.sign/verify to ecdsa.js
- Move KeyPair.derive to ecdh.js
- Move keyFromPrivate and keyFromPublic to a new indutnyKey.js file
Previously the signature parsing function ignored critical bit on
notations.
This change checks for notations that are marked "critical" but are not
on the known notations list (controlled by config array
`openpgp.config.known_notations`) and triggers parse error if such
a notation have been encountered.
See: #897.
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.
