| 27 | These functions handle RSA signatures at a low level. | ||
| 28 | .Pp | ||
| 29 | .Fn RSA_private_encrypt | ||
| 30 | signs the | ||
| 31 | .Fa flen | ||
| 32 | bytes at | ||
| 33 | .Fa from | ||
| 34 | (usually a message digest with an algorithm identifier) using the | ||
| 35 | private key | ||
| 36 | .Fa rsa | ||
| 37 | and stores the signature in | ||
| 38 | .Fa to . | ||
| 39 | .Fa to | ||
| 40 | must point to | ||
| 41 | .Fn RSA_size rsa | ||
| 42 | bytes of memory. | ||
| 43 | .Pp | ||
| 44 | .Fa padding | ||
| 45 | denotes one of the following modes: | ||
| 46 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | ||
| 47 | .It Dv RSA_PKCS1_PADDING | ||
| 48 | PKCS #1 v1.5 padding. | ||
| 49 | This function does not handle the | ||
| 50 | .Sy algorithmIdentifier | ||
| 51 | specified in PKCS #1. | ||
| 52 | When generating or verifying PKCS #1 signatures, | ||
| 53 | .Xr RSA_sign 3 | ||
| 54 | and | ||
| 55 | .Xr RSA_verify 3 | ||
| 56 | should be used. | ||
| 57 | .It Dv RSA_NO_PADDING | ||
| 58 | Raw RSA signature. | ||
| 59 | This mode should only be used to implement cryptographically sound | ||
| 60 | padding modes in the application code. | ||
| 61 | Signing user data directly with RSA is insecure. | ||
| 62 | .El | ||
| 63 | .Pp | ||
| 64 | .Fn RSA_public_decrypt | ||
| 65 | recovers the message digest from the | ||
| 66 | .Fa flen | ||
| 67 | bytes long signature at | ||
| 68 | .Fa from | ||
| 69 | using the signer's public key | ||
| 70 | .Fa rsa . | ||
| 71 | .Fa to | ||
| 72 | must point to a memory section large enough to hold the message digest | ||
| 73 | (which is smaller than | ||
| 74 | .Fn RSA_size rsa | ||
| 75 | - 11). | ||
| 76 | .Fa padding | ||
| 77 | is the padding mode that was used to sign the data. | ||
| 78 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
| 79 | .Fn RSA_private_encrypt | ||
| 80 | returns the size of the signature (i.e., | ||
| 81 | .Fn RSA_size rsa ) . | ||
| 82 | .Fn RSA_public_decrypt | ||
| 83 | returns the size of the recovered message digest. | ||
| 84 | .Pp | ||
| 85 | On error, -1 is returned; the error codes can be obtained by | ||
| 86 | .Xr ERR_get_error 3 . | ||

| 92 | .Sh HISTORY | ||
| 93 | The | ||
| 94 | .Fa padding | ||
| 95 | argument was added in SSLeay 0.8. | ||
| 96 | .Dv RSA_NO_PADDING | ||
| 97 | is available since SSLeay 0.9.0. | ||
