iaik.pkcs.pkcs1.RSAOaepParameters

public class RSAOaepParameters
extends PKCS1AlgorithmParameters

Algorithm parameters for the PKCS#1 RSASES-OAEP encryption scheme.

PKCS#1v2.1 defines the following parameters for the OAEP signature scheme:

 RSASES-OAEP-params :: = SEQUENCE {
      hashAlgorithm            [0] HashAlgorithm     DEFAULT sha1,
      maskGenerationAlgorithm  [1] MaskGenAlgorithm  DEFAULT mgf1SHA1,
      pSourceAlgorithm         [2] PSourceAlgorithm  DEFAULT pSpecifiedEmpty,
 }
 
 HashAlgorithm ::= Algorithmidentifier { {OAEP-PSSDigestAlgorithms} }
 
 MaskGenAlgorithm ::= AlgorithmIdentifier { {PKCS1MGFAlgorithms} }
 
 PSourceAlgorithm ::= AlgorithmIdentifier { {PKCS1PSourceAlgorithms} }
 

By default OAEP uses SHA-1 as hash function, MGF1 (with SHA-1 as hash function parameter) as mask generation algorithm, and id-pSpecified as PSourceAlgorithm (with an empty OCTET STRING as parameter).

RSAOaepParameters can be generated provider independently by calling one of the AlgorithmParameters.getInstance methods. Subsequently the new AlgorithmParameters object must be initialized with a proper RSA-OAEP parameter specification or a DER encoded byte array, e.g.:

 RSAOaepParameterSpec oaepParamSpec = ...;
 AlgorithmParameters params = AlgorithmParameters.getInstance("RSAES-OAEP", "IAIK");
 params.init(oaepParamSpec);
 

respectively:

 byte[] encodedOaepParams = ...;
 AlgorithmParameters params = AlgorithmParameters.getInstance("RSAES-OAEP", "IAIK");
 params.init(encodedOaepParams);
 

For obtaining OAEP parameters in transparent representation from an opaque RSAOaepParameters object, the getParameterSpec method can be used; for obtaining the parameters as DER encoded ASN.1 object, use method getEncoded:

 RSAOaepParameterSpec oaepParamSpec = (RSAOaepParameterSpec) params
     .getParameterSpec(RSAOaepParameterSpec.class);
 

respectively

 byte[] encodedOaepParams = params.getEncoded();

Constructor Detail

RSAOaepParameters

public RSAOaepParameters()

The default constructor. Only internally used for creating a RSAOaepParameters object. Applications shall use one of the AlgorithmParameters.getInstance factory methods for obtaining RSAOaepParameters.

Method Detail

setEncodeDefaultValues

public static void setEncodeDefaultValues(boolean encode)

With this method, the application can define that parameter values should be encoded even if they have the default values; e.g. if the hashAlgorithm is sha1.

Note that the settings given by the RSAOaepParameterSpec have higher priority.

Note that only a value of false results in a fully correct DER encoding, because DER encoding required default values to be omitted.

Parameters:

encode - true to encode default values, false to omit default values in the encoding.

See Also:

RSAOaepParameterSpec.setEncodeDefaultValues(Boolean), RSAOaepParameterSpec.getEncodeDefaultValues()

getEncodeDefaultValues

public static boolean getEncodeDefaultValues()

This method shows if parameter values should be encoded even if they have the default values; e.g. if the hashAlgorithm is sha1.

Note that the settings given by the RSAOaepParameterSpec have higher priority.

Per default, this is false.

Note that only a value of false results in a fully correct DER encoding, because DER encoding required default values to be omitted.

Returns:

true if default values are encoded, false if default values are omitted.

engineGetEncoded

protected byte[] engineGetEncoded()
                           throws java.io.IOException

Returns the parameters as DER byte array.

Specified by:

engineGetEncoded in class java.security.AlgorithmParametersSpi

Returns:

the DER encoded parameters

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an encoding error occurs

engineGetEncoded

protected byte[] engineGetEncoded(java.lang.String format)
                           throws java.io.IOException

Returns the parameters as a DER byte array.

Format is ignored. Only DER encoding is supported. This method only calls engineGetEncoded(), regardless of what is specified in the format string.

Specified by:

engineGetEncoded in class java.security.AlgorithmParametersSpi

Parameters:
