Each subdirectory contains known plaintext and ciphertext pairs +(and keys and/or iv's if needed). The tests can be run as a full set +with: + bltest -T +or as subsets, for example: + bltest -T -m des_ecb,md2,rsa + +In each subdirectory, the plaintext, key, and iv are ascii, and treated +as such. The ciphertext is base64-encoded to avoid the hassle of binary +files. + +To add a test, incremement the value in the numtests file. Create a +plaintext, key, and iv file, such that the name of the file is +incrememted one from the last set of tests. For example, if you are +adding the second test, put your data in files named plaintext1, key1, +and iv1 (ignoring key and iv if they are not needed, of course). Make +sure your key and iv are the correct number of bytes for your cipher (a +trailing \n is okay, but any other trailing bytes will be used!). Once +you have your input data, create output data by running bltest on a +trusted implementation. For example, for a new DES ECB test, run + bltest -E -m des_ecb -i plaintext1 -k key1 -o ciphertext1 -a in the +tests/des_ecb directory. Then run + bltest -T des_ecb from the cmd/bltest directory in the tree of the +implementation you want to test. + +Note that the -a option above is important, it tells bltest to expect +the input to be straight ASCII, and not base64 encoded binary! + +Special cases: + +RC5: +RC5 can take additional parameters, the number of rounds to perform and +the wordsize to use. The number of rounds is between is between 0 and +255, and the wordsize is either is either 16, 32, or 64 bits (at this +time only 32-bit is supported). These parameters are specified in a +paramsN file, where N is an index as above. The format of the file is +"rounds=R\nwordsize=W\n". + +public key modes (RSA and DSA): +Asymmetric key ciphers use keys with special properties, so creating a +key file with "Mozilla!" in it will not get you very far! To create a +public key, run bltest with the plaintext you want to encrypt, using a +trusted implementation. bltest will generate a key and store it in +"tmp.key", rename that file to keyN. For example: + bltest -E -m rsa -i plaintext0 -o ciphertext0 -e 65537 -g 32 -a + mv tmp.key key0 + +RSA-OAEP/RSA-PSS: +RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS have a number of additional parameters to feed in. +- "seedN": The seed or salt to use when encrypting/signing +- "hashN" / "maskhashN" - The base digest algorithm and the digest algorithm + to use with MGF1, respectively. This should be an ASCII string specifying + one of the hash algorithms recognized by bltest (eg: "sha1", "sha256") + +[note: specifying a keysize (-g) when using RSA is important!] |
