Hi *,
My name is Malik and I just started using the Nettle.
I am looking for APIs for RSA crypto operations.
>From rsa.h header file, I can make out that Nettle supports,
- RSA crypto APIs only for PKCS#1 v1.5 padding mechanisms and
- CRT format for RSA private key
My questions,
- Does nettle not support PKCS#1 v2.1 padding mechanisms e.g. RSASSA-PSS?
- Does nettle not support exponent format for private key?. Meaning private
key is made up of modulus and private exponent.
- Is there an API for raw RSA crypto operation? Raw meaning, API must not
do any encoding with input data but just has to sign/encrypt it.
Can someone please clarify my questions?
Thanks very much indeed in advance for the clarifications.
Regards,
Malik
