Constructor Detail

SRP6VerifierGenerator

public SRP6VerifierGenerator(SRP6CryptoParams config)

Creates a new generator of password verifier 'v' values.

Parameters:

config - The SRP-6a crypto parameters configuration. Must not be null.

Method Detail

generateRandomSalt

public static byte[] generateRandomSalt(int numBytes)

Generates a random salt 's'.

This method is a shortcut to SRP6Routines.generateRandomSalt(int).

Parameters:

numBytes - The number of bytes the salt 's' must have.

Returns:

The salt 's' as a byte array.

generateRandomSalt

public static byte[] generateRandomSalt()

Generates a random 16-byte salt 's'.

This method is a shortcut to SRP6Routines.generateRandomSalt(int).

Returns:

The salt 's' as a byte array.

setXRoutine

public void setXRoutine(XRoutine routine)

Sets a custom routine for the password key 'x' computation.

Parameters:

routine - The password key 'x' routine or null to use the default one instead.

getXRoutine

public XRoutine getXRoutine()

Gets the custom routine for the password key 'x' computation.

Returns:

The routine instance or null if the default default one is used.

generateVerifier

public java.math.BigInteger generateVerifier(byte[] salt,
                                             byte[] userID,
                                             byte[] password)

Generates a new verifier 'v' from the specified parameters.

The verifier is computed as v = g^x (mod N). If a custom 'x' computation routine is set it will be used instead of the default one.

Tip: To convert a string to a byte array you can use String.getBytes() or String.getBytes(java.nio.charset.Charset). To convert a big integer to a byte array you can use BigInteger.toByteArray().

Parameters:

salt - The salt 's'. Must not be null.

userID - The user identity 'I'. May be null if the default 'x' routine is used or the custom one ignores it.

password - The user password 'P'. Must not be null.

Returns:

The resulting verifier 'v'.

generateVerifier

public java.math.BigInteger generateVerifier(java.math.BigInteger salt,
                                             java.lang.String userID,
                                             java.lang.String password)

Generates a new verifier 'v' from the specified parameters.

The verifier is computed as v = g^x (mod N). If a custom 'x' computation routine is set it will be used instead of the default one.

Parameters:

salt - The salt 's'. Must not be null.

userID - The user identity 'I', as an UTF-8 encoded string. May be null if the default 'x' routine is used or the custom one ignores it.

password - The user password 'P', as an UTF-8 encoded string. Must not be null.

Returns:

The resulting verifier 'v'.

generateVerifier

public java.math.BigInteger generateVerifier(byte[] salt,
                                             byte[] password)

Generates a new verifier 'v' from the specified parameters with the user identifier 'I' omitted.

The verifier is computed as v = g^x (mod N). If a custom 'x' computation routine is set it must omit the user identity 'I' as well.

Tip: To convert a string to a byte array you can use String.getBytes() or String.getBytes(java.nio.charset.Charset). To convert a big integer to a byte array you can use BigInteger.toByteArray().

Parameters:

salt - The salt 's'. Must not be null.

password - The user password 'P'. Must not be null.

Returns:

The resulting verifier 'v'.

generateVerifier

public java.math.BigInteger generateVerifier(java.math.BigInteger salt,
                                             java.lang.String password)

Generates a new verifier 'v' from the specified parameters with the user identifier 'I' omitted.

The verifier is computed as v = g^x (mod N). If a custom 'x' computation routine is set it must omit the user identity 'I' as well.

Parameters:

salt - The salt 's'. Must not be null.

password - The user password 'P', as an UTF-8 encoded string. Must not be null.

Returns:

The resulting verifier 'v'.
