  151. \&\fIEVP_BytesToKey()\fR derives a key and \s-1IV\s0 from various parameters. \fBtype\fR is
  152. the cipher to derive the key and \s-1IV\s0 for. \fBmd\fR is the message digest to use.
  153. The \fBsalt\fR parameter is used as a salt in the derivation: it should point to
  154. an 8 byte buffer or \s-1NULL\s0 if no salt is used. \fBdata\fR is a buffer containing
  155. \&\fBdatal\fR bytes which is used to derive the keying data. \fBcount\fR is the
  156. iteration count to use. The derived key and \s-1IV\s0 will be written to \fBkey\fR
  157. and \fBiv\fR respectively.
  158. .SH "NOTES"
  159. .IX Header "NOTES"
  160. A typical application of this function is to derive keying material for an
  161. encryption algorithm from a password in the \fBdata\fR parameter.
  162. .PP
  163. Increasing the \fBcount\fR parameter slows down the algorithm which makes it
  164. harder for an attacker to peform a brute force attack using a large number
  165. of candidate passwords.
  166. .PP
  167. If the total key and \s-1IV\s0 length is less than the digest length and
  168. \&\fB\s-1MD5\s0\fR is used then the derivation algorithm is compatible with PKCS#5 v1.5
  169. otherwise a non standard extension is used to derive the extra data.
  170. .PP
  171. Newer applications should use a more modern algorithm such as \s-1PBKDF2\s0 as
  172. defined in PKCS#5v2.1 and provided by \s-1PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC.\s0
  173. .SH "KEY DERIVATION ALGORITHM"
  174. .IX Header "KEY DERIVATION ALGORITHM"
  175. The key and \s-1IV\s0 is derived by concatenating D_1, D_2, etc until
  176. enough data is available for the key and \s-1IV.\s0 D_i is defined as:
  177. .PP
  178. .Vb 1
  179. \& D_i = HASH^count(D_(i\-1) || data || salt)
  180. .Ve
  181. .PP
  182. where || denotes concatentaion, D_0 is empty, \s-1HASH\s0 is the digest
  183. algorithm in use, HASH^1(data) is simply \s-1HASH\s0(data), HASH^2(data)
  184. is \s-1HASH\s0(\s-1HASH\s0(data)) and so on.
  185. .PP
  186. The initial bytes are used for the key and the subsequent bytes for
  187. the \s-1IV.\s0
  188. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  189. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  190. If \fBdata\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 then \fIEVP_BytesToKey()\fR returns the number of bytes
  191. needed to store the derived key.
  192. Otherwise, \fIEVP_BytesToKey()\fR returns the size of the derived key in bytes,
  193. or 0 on error.
