OpenSSL::PKey::EC

OpenSSL::PKey::EC provides access to Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) and Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH).

Key exchange¶ ↑

ec1 = OpenSSL::PKey::EC.generate("prime256v1")
ec2 = OpenSSL::PKey::EC.generate("prime256v1")
# ec1 and ec2 have own private key respectively
shared_key1 = ec1.dh_compute_key(ec2.public_key)
shared_key2 = ec2.dh_compute_key(ec1.public_key)

p shared_key1 == shared_key2 #=> true

Public Instance Methods

check_key => true click to toggle source

    return Qtrue;
}

dh_compute_key(pubkey) → string click to toggle source

Derives a shared secret by ECDH. pubkey must be an instance of OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Point and must belong to the same group.

This method is provided for backwards compatibility, and calls derive internally.

 
               # File openssl/lib/openssl/pkey.rb, line 276
def dh_compute_key(pubkey)
  obj = OpenSSL::ASN1.Sequence([
    OpenSSL::ASN1.Sequence([
      OpenSSL::ASN1.ObjectId("id-ecPublicKey"),
      group.to_der,
    ]),
    OpenSSL::ASN1.BitString(pubkey.to_octet_string(:uncompressed)),
  ])
  derive(OpenSSL::PKey.read(obj.to_der))
end

dsa_sign_asn1(data) → String click to toggle source

Deprecated in version 3.0. Consider using PKey::PKey#sign_raw and PKey::PKey#verify_raw instead.

 
               # File openssl/lib/openssl/pkey.rb, line 251
def dsa_sign_asn1(data)
  sign_raw(nil, data)
rescue OpenSSL::PKey::PKeyError
  raise OpenSSL::PKey::ECError, $!.message
end

dsa_verify_asn1(data, sig) → true | false click to toggle source

Deprecated in version 3.0. Consider using PKey::PKey#sign_raw and PKey::PKey#verify_raw instead.

 
               # File openssl/lib/openssl/pkey.rb, line 262
def dsa_verify_asn1(data, sig)
  verify_raw(nil, sig, data)
rescue OpenSSL::PKey::PKeyError
  raise OpenSSL::PKey::ECError, $!.message
end

export([cipher, pass_phrase]) => String click to toggle source

to_pem([cipher, pass_phrase]) => String

Outputs the EC key in PEM encoding. If cipher and pass_phrase are given they will be used to encrypt the key. cipher must be an OpenSSL::Cipher instance. Note that encryption will only be effective for a private key, public keys will always be encoded in plain text.

 
               static VALUE
ossl_ec_key_export(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self)
{
    EC_KEY *ec;

    GetEC(self, ec);

}

Also aliased as: to_pem

Alias for: generate_key!

generate_key! => self click to toggle source
