= Introduction = As cryptography begins to see wide application and acceptance, one thing is increasingly clear: if it is going to be as effective as the underlying technology allows it to be, there must be interoperable standards. Even though vendors may agree on the basic cryptographic techniques, compatibility between implementations is by no means guaranteed. Interoperability requires strict adherence to agreed-upon standards. Towards that goal, RSA Laboratories has developed, in cooperation with representatives of industry, academia and government, a family of standards called Public-Key Cryptography Standards, or PKCS for short. PKCS is offered by RSA Laboratories to developers of computer systems employing public-key and related technology. It is RSA Laboratories' intention to improve and refine the standards in conjunction with computer system developers, with the goal of producing standards that most if not all developers adopt. The role of RSA Laboratories in the standards-making process is four-fold: 1.Publish carefully written documents describing the standards. 2.Solicit opinions and advice from developers and users on useful or necessary changes and extensions. 3.Publish revised standards when appropriate. 4.Provide implementation guides and/or reference implementations. During the process of PKCS development, RSA Laboratories retains final authority on each document, though input from reviewers is clearly influential. However, RSA Laboratories’ goal is to accelerate the development of formal standards, not to compete with such work. Thus, when a PKCS document is accepted as a base document for a formal standard, RSA Laboratories relinquishes its “ownership” of the document, giving way to the open standards development process. RSA Laboratories may continue to develop related documents, of course, under the terms described above. PKCS documents and information are available online at [http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/PKCS http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/PKCS]/. There is an electronic mailing list, “cryptoki”, at rsasecurity.com, specifically for discussion and development of PKCS #11. To subscribe to this list, send e-mail to majordomo@rsasecurity.com with the line “subscribe cryptoki” in the message body. To unsubscribe, send e-mail to majordomo@rsasecurity.com with the line “unsubscribe cryptoki” in the message body. Comments on the PKCS documents, requests to register extensions to the standards, and suggestions for additional standards are welcomed. Address correspondence to: PKCS EditorRSA Laboratories174 Middlesex TurnpikeBedford, MA 01730 USA[mailto:pkcs-editor@rsa.com pkcs-editor@rsasecurity.com][http://www.rsa.com/rsalabs/pubs/PKCS http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/PKCS]/ It would be difficult to enumerate all the people and organizations who helped to produce PKCS #11. RSA Laboratories is grateful to each and every one of them. Special thanks go to Bruno Couillard of Chrysalis-ITS and John Centafont of NSA for the many hours they spent writing up parts of this document. Thanks also for the many other technical descriptions provided by many industry specialists. The reviewers of the document, without whose help the quality of the content would not be as great, must also be acknowledged and thanked. The review effort cannot be underestimated especially for a document so large. Revision History Version 1.0, PKCS #11’s document editor was Aram Pérez of International Computer Services, under contract to RSA Laboratories; the project coordinator was Burt Kaliski of RSA Laboratories. Version 2.01, Ray Sidney served as document editor and project coordinator. Version 2.10 and Version 2.11, Matthew Wood of Intel was document editor and project coordinator. Version 2.20, Simon McMahon from Eracom was editor for while Magnus Nystrom of RSA coordinated the project. Version 2.30, Editor Simon McMahon with Robert Griffin of RSA as project coordinator. = References = AES KEYWRAPAES Key Wrap Specification (Draft) [http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/documents/kms/key-wrap.pdf http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/ST/toolkit/documents/kms/key-wrap.pdf].

These pointer types are: CK_BYTE_PTR /* Pointer to a CK_BYTE */ CK_CHAR_PTR /* Pointer to a CK_CHAR */ CK_UTF8CHAR_PTR /* Pointer to a CK_UTF8CHAR */ CK_ULONG_PTR /* Pointer to a CK_ULONG */ CK_VOID_PTR /* Pointer to a void */ Cryptoki also defines a pointer to a CK_VOID_PTR, which is implementation-dependent: CK_VOID_PTR_PTR /* Pointer to a CK_VOID_PTR */ In addition, Cryptoki defines a C-style NULL pointer, which is distinct from any valid pointer: NULL_PTR /* A NULL pointer */ It follows that many of the data and pointer types will vary somewhat from one environment to another (''e.g.'', a CK_ULONG will sometimes be 32 bits, and sometimes perhaps 64 bits). However, these details should not affect an application, assuming it is compiled with Cryptoki header files consistent with the Cryptoki library to which the application is linked. All numbers and values expressed in this document are decimal, unless they are preceded by “0x”, in which case they are hexadecimal values. The '''CK_CHAR''' data type holds characters from the following table, taken from ANSI C: '''Table 3, Character Set''' {| class="prettytable" ! Category ! Characters |- | Letters | A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z |- | Numbers | 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |- | Graphic characters | ! “ # % & ‘ ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? [ \ ] ^ _ { | } ~ |- | Blank character | ‘ ‘ |} The '''CK_UTF8CHAR''' data type holds UTF-8 encoded Unicode characters as specified in RFC2279. UTF-8 allows internationalization while maintaining backward compatibility with the Local String definition of PKCS #11 version 2.01. In Cryptoki, the '''CK_BBOOL''' data type is a Boolean type that can be true or false. A zero value means false, and a nonzero value means true. Similarly, an individual bit flag, '''CKF_'''..., can also be set (true) or unset (false). For convenience, Cryptoki defines the following macros for use with values of type '''CK_BBOOL''': #define CK_FALSE 0 #define CK_TRUE 1 For backwards compatibility, header files for this version of Cryptoki also defines TRUE and FALSE as (CK_DISABLE_TRUE_FALSE may be set by the application vendor): #ifndef CK_DISABLE_TRUE_FALSE #ifndef FALSE #define FALSE CK_FALSE #endif #ifndef TRUE #define TRUE CK_TRUE #endif #endif = General overview = == Introduction == Portable computing devices such as smart cards, PCMCIA cards, and smart diskettes are ideal tools for implementing public-key cryptography, as they provide a way to store the private-key component of a public-key/private-key pair securely, under the control of a single user. With such a device, a cryptographic application, rather than performing cryptographic operations itself, utilizes the device to perform the operations, with sensitive information such as private keys never being revealed. As more applications are developed for public-key cryptography, a standard programming interface for these devices becomes increasingly valuable. This standard addresses this need. == Design goals == Cryptoki was intended from the beginning to be an interface between applications and all kinds of portable cryptographic devices, such as those based on smart cards, PCMCIA cards, and smart diskettes. There are already standards (de facto or official) for interfacing to these devices at some level. For instance, the mechanical characteristics and electrical connections are well-defined, as are the methods for supplying commands and receiving results. (See, for example, ISO 7816, or the PCMCIA specifications.) What remained to be defined were particular commands for performing cryptography. It would not be enough simply to define command sets for each kind of device, as that would not solve the general problem of an ''application'' interface independent of the device. To do so is still a long-term goal, and would certainly contribute to interoperability. The primary goal of Cryptoki was a lower-level programming interface that abstracts the details of the devices, and presents to the application a common model of the cryptographic device, called a “cryptographic token” (or simply “token”). A secondary goal was resource-sharing. As desktop multi-tasking operating systems become more popular, a single device should be shared between more than one application. In addition, an application should be able to interface to more than one device at a given time. It is not the goal of Cryptoki to be a generic interface to cryptographic operations or security services, although one certainly could build such operations and services with the functions that Cryptoki provides. Cryptoki is intended to complement, not compete with, such emerging and evolving interfaces as “Generic Security Services Application Programming Interface” (RFC 2743 and RFC 2744) and “Generic Cryptographic Service API” (GCS-API) from X/Open. == General model == Cryptoki's general model is illustrated in the following figure. The model begins with one or more applications that need to perform certain cryptographic operations, and ends with one or more cryptographic devices, on which some or all of the operations are actually performed. A user may or may not be associated with an application. [[Image:]]
'''Figure 1, General Cryptoki Model'''
Cryptoki provides an interface to one or more cryptographic devices that are active in the system through a number of “slots”. Each slot, which corresponds to a physical reader or other device interface, may contain a token. A token is typically “present in the slot” when a cryptographic device is present in the reader. Of course, since Cryptoki provides a logical view of slots and tokens, there may be other physical interpretations. It is possible that multiple slots may share the same physical reader. The point is that a system has some number of slots, and applications can connect to tokens in any or all of those slots. A cryptographic device can perform some cryptographic operations, following a certain command set; these commands are typically passed through standard device drivers, for instance PCMCIA card services or socket services. Cryptoki makes each cryptographic device look logically like every other device, regardless of the implementation technology. Thus the application need not interface directly to the device drivers (or even know which ones are involved); Cryptoki hides these details. Indeed, the underlying “device” may be implemented entirely in software (for instance, as a process running on a server)—no special hardware is necessary. Cryptoki is likely to be implemented as a library supporting the functions in the interface, and applications will be linked to the library. An application may be linked to Cryptoki directly; alternatively, Cryptoki can be a so-called “shared” library (or dynamic link library), in which case the application would link the library dynamically. Shared libraries are fairly straightforward to produce in operating systems such as Microsoft Windows and OS/2, and can be achieved without too much difficulty in UNIX and DOS systems. The dynamic approach certainly has advantages as new libraries are made available, but from a security perspective, there are some drawbacks. In particular, if a library is easily replaced, then there is the possibility that an attacker can substitute a rogue library that intercepts a user’s PIN. From a security perspective, therefore, direct linking is generally preferable, although code-signing techniques can prevent many of the security risks of dynamic linking. In any case, whether the linking is direct or dynamic, the programming interface between the application and a Cryptoki library remains the same. The kinds of devices and capabilities supported will depend on the particular Cryptoki library. This standard specifies only the interface to the library, not its features. In particular, not all libraries will support all the mechanisms (algorithms) defined in this interface (since not all tokens are expected to support all the mechanisms), and libraries will likely support only a subset of all the kinds of cryptographic devices that are available. (The more kinds, the better, of course, and it is anticipated that libraries will be developed supporting multiple kinds of token, rather than just those from a single vendor.) It is expected that as applications are developed that interface to Cryptoki, standard library and token “profiles” will emerge. == Logical view of a token == Cryptoki’s logical view of a token is a device that stores objects and can perform cryptographic functions. Cryptoki defines three classes of object: data, certificates, and keys. A data object is defined by an application. A certificate object stores a certificate. A key object stores a cryptographic key. The key may be a public key, a private key, or a secret key; each of these types of keys has subtypes for use in specific mechanisms. This view is illustrated in the following figure: [[Image:]]
'''Figure 2, Object Hierarchy'''
Objects are also classified according to their lifetime and visibility. “Token objects” are visible to all applications connected to the token that have sufficient permission, and remain on the token even after the “sessions” (connections between an application and the token) are closed and the token is removed from its slot. “Session objects” are more temporary: whenever a session is closed by any means, all session objects created by that session are automatically destroyed. In addition, session objects are only visible to the application which created them. Further classification defines access requirements. Applications are not required to log into the token to view “public objects”; however, to view “private objects”, a user must be authenticated to the token by a PIN or some other token-dependent method (for example, a biometric device). See Table 6 on page 19 for further clarification on access to objects. A token can create and destroy objects, manipulate them, and search for them. It can also perform cryptographic functions with objects. A token may have an internal random number generator. It is important to distinguish between the logical view of a token and the actual implementation, because not all cryptographic devices will have this concept of “objects,” or be able to perform every kind of cryptographic function. Many devices will simply have fixed storage places for keys of a fixed algorithm, and be able to do a limited set of operations. Cryptoki's role is to translate this into the logical view, mapping attributes to fixed storage elements and so on. Not all Cryptoki libraries and tokens need to support every object type. It is expected that standard “profiles” will be developed, specifying sets of algorithms to be supported. “Attributes” are characteristics that distinguish an instance of an object. In Cryptoki, there are general attributes, such as whether the object is private or public. There are also attributes that are specific to a particular type of object, such as a modulus or exponent for RSA keys. == Users == This version of Cryptoki recognizes two token user types. One type is a Security Officer (SO). The other type is the normal user. Only the normal user is allowed access to private objects on the token, and that access is granted only after the normal user has been authenticated. Some tokens may also require that a user be authenticated before any cryptographic function can be performed on the token, whether or not it involves private objects. The role of the SO is to initialize a token and to set the normal user’s PIN (or otherwise define, by some method outside the scope of this version of Cryptoki, how the normal user may be authenticated), and possibly to manipulate some public objects. The normal user cannot log in until the SO has set the normal user’s PIN. Other than the support for two types of user, Cryptoki does not address the relationship between the SO and a community of users. In particular, the SO and the normal user may be the same person or may be different, but such matters are outside the scope of this standard. With respect to PINs that are entered through an application, Cryptoki assumes only that they are variable-length strings of characters from the set in Table 3. Any translation to the device’s requirements is left to the Cryptoki library. The following issues are beyond the scope of Cryptoki: * Any padding of PINs. * How the PINs are generated (by the user, by the application, or by some other means). PINs that are supplied by some means other than through an application (''e.g.'', PINs entered via a PINpad on the token) are even more abstract. Cryptoki knows how to wait (if need be) for such a PIN to be supplied and used, and little more. == Applications and their use of Cryptoki == To Cryptoki, an application consists of a single address space and all the threads of control running in it. An application becomes a “Cryptoki application” by calling the Cryptoki function '''C_Initialize''' (see Section 11.4) from one of its threads; after this call is made, the application can call other Cryptoki functions. When the application is done using Cryptoki, it calls the Cryptoki function '''C_Finalize''' (see Section 11.4) and ceases to be a Cryptoki application. === Applications and processes === In general, on most platforms, the previous paragraph means that an application consists of a single process. Consider a UNIX process '''P''' which becomes a Cryptoki application by calling '''C_Initialize''', and then uses the fork() system call to create a child process '''C'''. Since '''P''' and '''C''' have separate address spaces (or will when one of them performs a write operation, if the operating system follows the copy-on-write paradigm), they are not part of the same application. Therefore, if '''C''' needs to use Cryptoki, it needs to perform its own '''C_Initialize''' call. Furthermore, if '''C''' needs to be logged into the token(s) that it will access via Cryptoki, it needs to log into them ''even if '''P''' already logged in'', since '''P''' and '''C''' are completely separate applications. In this particular case (when '''C''' is the child of a process which is a Cryptoki application), the behavior of Cryptoki is undefined if '''C''' tries to use it without its own '''C_Initialize''' call. Ideally, such an attempt would return the value CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED; however, because of the way fork() works, insisting on this return value might have a bad impact on the performance of libraries. Therefore, the behavior of Cryptoki in this situation is left undefined. Applications should definitely ''not'' attempt to take advantage of any potential “shortcuts” which might (or might not!) be available because of this. In the scenario specified above, '''C''' should actually call '''C_Initialize''' whether or not it needs to use Cryptoki; if it has no need to use Cryptoki, it should then call '''C_Finalize''' immediately thereafter. This (having the child immediately call '''C_Initialize''' and then call '''C_Finalize''' if the parent is using Cryptoki) is considered to be good Cryptoki programming practice, since it can prevent the existence of dangling duplicate resources that were created at the time of the fork() call; however, it is not required by Cryptoki. === Applications and threads === Some applications will access a Cryptoki library in a multi-threaded fashion. Cryptoki enables applications to provide information to libraries so that they can give appropriate support for multi-threading. In particular, when an application initializes a Cryptoki library with a call to '''C_Initialize''', it can specify one of four possible multi-threading behaviors for the library: # The application can specify that it will not be accessing the library concurrently from multiple threads, and so the library need not worry about performing any type of locking for the sake of thread-safety. # The application can specify that it ''will'' be accessing the library concurrently from multiple threads, and the library must be able to use native operation system synchronization primitives to ensure proper thread-safe behavior. # The application can specify that it ''will'' be accessing the library concurrently from multiple threads, and the library must use a set of application-supplied synchronization primitives to ensure proper thread-safe behavior. # The application can specify that it ''will'' be accessing the library concurrently from multiple threads, and the library must use either the native operation system synchronization primitives or a set of application-supplied synchronization primitives to ensure proper thread-safe behavior. The 3rd and 4th types of behavior listed above are appropriate for multi-threaded applications which are not using the native operating system thread model. The application-supplied synchronization primitives consist of four functions for handling mutex (''mut''ual ''ex''clusion) objects in the application’s threading model. Mutex objects are simple objects which can be in either of two states at any given time: unlocked or locked. If a call is made by a thread to lock a mutex which is already locked, that thread blocks (waits) until the mutex is unlocked; then it locks it and the call returns. If more than one thread is blocking on a particular mutex, and that mutex becomes unlocked, then exactly one of those threads will get the lock on the mutex and return control to the caller (the other blocking threads will continue to block and wait for their turn). See Section 9.7 for more information on Cryptoki’s view of mutex objects. In addition to providing the above thread-handling information to a Cryptoki library at initialization time, an application can also specify whether or not application threads executing library calls may use native operating system calls to spawn new threads. == Sessions == Cryptoki requires that an application open one or more sessions with a token to gain access to the token’s objects and functions. A session provides a logical connection between the application and the token. A session can be a read/write (R/W) session or a read-only (R/O) session. Read/write and read-only refer to the access to token objects, not to session objects. In both session types, an application can create, read, write and destroy session objects, and read token objects. However, only in a read/write session can an application create, modify, and destroy token objects. After it opens a session, an application has access to the token’s public objects. All threads of a given application have access to exactly the same sessions and the same session objects. To gain access to the token’s private objects, the normal user must log in and be authenticated. When a session is closed, any session objects which were created in that session are destroyed. This holds even for session objects which are “being used” by other sessions. That is, if a single application has multiple sessions open with a token, and it uses one of them to create a session object, then that session object is visible through any of that application’s sessions. However, as soon as the session that was used to create the object is closed, that object is destroyed. Cryptoki supports multiple sessions on multiple tokens. An application may have one or more sessions with one or more tokens. In general, a token may have multiple sessions with one or more applications. A particular token may allow an application to have only a limited number of sessions—or only a limited number of read/write sessions-- however. An open session can be in one of several states. The session state determines allowable access to objects and functions that can be performed on them. The session states are described in Section 6.7.1 and Section 6.7.2. === Read-only session states === A read-only session can be in one of two states, as illustrated in the following figure. When the session is initially opened, it is in either the “R/O Public Session” state (if the application has no previously open sessions that are logged in) or the “R/O User Functions” state (if the application already has an open session that is logged in). Note that read-only SO sessions do not exist. [[Image:]]
'''Figure 3, Read-Only Session States'''
The following table describes the session states: '''Table 4, Read-Only Session States''' {| class="prettytable" ! State ! Description |- | R/O Public Session | The application has opened a read-only session. The application has read-only access to public token objects and read/write access to public session objects. |- | R/O User Functions | The normal user has been authenticated to the token. The application has read-only access to all token objects (public or private) and read/write access to all session objects (public or private). |} === Read/write session states === A read/write session can be in one of three states, as illustrated in the following figure. When the session is opened, it is in either the “R/W Public Session” state (if the application has no previously open sessions that are logged in), the “R/W User Functions” state (if the application already has an open session that the normal user is logged into), or the “R/W SO Functions” state (if the application already has an open session that the SO is logged into). [[Image:]]
'''Figure 4, Read/Write Session States'''
The following table describes the session states: '''Table 5, Read/Write Session States''' {| class="prettytable" ! State ! Description |- | R/W Public Session | The application has opened a read/write session. The application has read/write access to all public objects. |- | R/W SO Functions | The Security Officer has been authenticated to the token. The application has read/write access only to public objects on the token, not to private objects. The SO can set the normal user’s PIN. |- | R/W User Functions | The normal user has been authenticated to the token. The application has read/write access to all objects. |} === Permitted object accesses by sessions === The following table summarizes the kind of access each type of session has to each type of object. A given type of session has either read-only access, read/write access, or no access whatsoever to a given type of object. Note that creating or deleting an object requires read/write access to it, ''e.g.'', a “R/O User Functions” session cannot create or delete a token object.

The following table describes the events: '''Table 7, Session Events''' {| class="prettytable" ! Event ! Occurs when... |- | Log In SO | the SO is authenticated to the token. |- | Log In User | the normal user is authenticated to the token. |- | Log Out | the application logs out the current user (SO or normal user). |- | Close Session | the application closes the session or closes all sessions. |- | Device Removed | the device underlying the token has been removed from its slot. |} When the device is removed, all sessions of all applications are automatically logged out. Furthermore, all sessions any applications have with the device are closed (this latter behavior was not present in Version 1.0 of Cryptoki)—an application cannot have a session with a token that is not present. Realistically, Cryptoki may not be constantly monitoring whether or not the token is present, and so the token’s absence could conceivably not be noticed until a Cryptoki function is executed. If the token is re-inserted into the slot before that, Cryptoki might never know that it was missing. In Cryptoki, all sessions that an application has with a token must have the same login/logout status (''i.e.'', for a given application and token, one of the following holds: all sessions are public sessions; all sessions are SO sessions; or all sessions are user sessions). When an application’s session logs into a token, ''all'' of that application’s sessions with that token become logged in, and when an application’s session logs out of a token, ''all'' of that application’s sessions with that token become logged out. Similarly, for example, if an application already has a R/O user session open with a token, and then opens a R/W session with that token, the R/W session is automatically logged in. This implies that a given application may not simultaneously have SO sessions and user sessions open with a given token. It also implies that if an application has a R/W SO session with a token, then it may not open a R/O session with that token, since R/O SO sessions do not exist. For the same reason, if an application has a R/O session open, then it may not log any other session into the token as the SO. === Session handles and object handles === A session handle is a Cryptoki-assigned value that identifies a session. It is in many ways akin to a file handle, and is specified to functions to indicate which session the function should act on. All threads of an application have equal access to all session handles. That is, anything that can be accomplished with a given file handle by one thread can also be accomplished with that file handle by any other thread of the same application. Cryptoki also has object handles, which are identifiers used to manipulate Cryptoki objects. Object handles are similar to session handles in the sense that visibility of a given object through an object handle is the same among all threads of a given application. R/O sessions, of course, only have read-only access to token objects, whereas R/W sessions have read/write access to token objects. ''Valid session handles and object handles in Cryptoki always have nonzero values.'' For developers’ convenience, Cryptoki defines the following symbolic value: CK_INVALID_HANDLE === Capabilities of sessions === Very roughly speaking, there are three broad types of operations an open session can be used to perform: administrative operations (such as logging in); object management operations (such as creating or destroying an object on the token); and cryptographic operations (such as computing a message digest). Cryptographic operations sometimes require more than one function call to the Cryptoki API to complete. In general, a single session can perform only one operation at a time; for this reason, it may be desirable for a single application to open multiple sessions with a single token. For efficiency’s sake, however, a single session on some tokens can perform the following pairs of operation types simultaneously: message digesting and encryption; decryption and message digesting; signature or MACing and encryption; and decryption and verifying signatures or MACs. Details on performing simultaneous cryptographic operations in one session are provided in Section 11.13. A consequence of the fact that a single session can, in general, perform only one operation at a time is that ''an application should never make multiple simultaneous function calls to Cryptoki which use a common session''. If multiple threads of an application attempt to use a common session concurrently in this fashion, Cryptoki does not define what happens. This means that if multiple threads of an application all need to use Cryptoki to access a particular token, it might be appropriate for each thread to have its own session with the token, unless the application can ensure by some other means (''e.g.'', by some locking mechanism) that no sessions are ever used by multiple threads simultaneously. This is true regardless of whether or not the Cryptoki library was initialized in a fashion which permits safe multi-threaded access to it. Even if it is safe to access the library from multiple threads simultaneously, it is still not necessarily safe to use ''a particular session'' from multiple threads simultaneously. === Example of use of sessions === We give here a detailed and lengthy example of how multiple applications can make use of sessions in a Cryptoki library. Despite the somewhat painful level of detail, we highly recommend reading through this example carefully to understand session handles and object handles. We caution that our example is decidedly ''not'' meant to indicate how multiple applications ''should'' use Cryptoki simultaneously; rather, it is meant to clarify what uses of Cryptoki’s sessions and objects and handles are permissible. In other words, instead of demonstrating good technique here, we demonstrate “pushing the envelope”. For our example, we suppose that two applications, '''A''' and '''B''', are using a Cryptoki library to access a single token '''T'''. Each application has two threads running: '''A''' has threads '''A1''' and '''A2''', and '''B''' has threads '''B1''' and '''B2'''. We assume in what follows that there are no instances where multiple threads of a single application simultaneously use the same session, and that the events of our example occur in the order specified, without overlapping each other in time. # '''A1''' and '''B1''' each initialize the Cryptoki library by calling '''C_Initialize''' (the specifics of Cryptoki functions will be explained in Section 10.12). Note that exactly one call to '''C_Initialize''' should be made for each application (as opposed to one call for every thread, for example). # '''A1''' opens a R/W session and receives the session handle 7 for the session. Since this is the first session to be opened for '''A''', it is a public session. # '''A2''' opens a R/O session and receives the session handle 4. Since all of '''A'''’s existing sessions are public sessions, session 4 is also a public session. # '''A1''' attempts to log the SO into session 7. The attempt fails, because if session 7 becomes an SO session, then session 4 does, as well, and R/O SO sessions do not exist. '''A1''' receives an error code indicating that the existence of a R/O session has blocked this attempt to log in (CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY_EXISTS). # '''A2''' logs the normal user into session 7. This turns session 7 into a R/W user session, and turns session 4 into a R/O user session. Note that because '''A1''' and '''A2''' belong to the same application, they have equal access to all sessions, and therefore, '''A2''' is able to perform this action. # '''A2''' opens a R/W session and receives the session handle 9. Since all of '''A'''’s existing sessions are user sessions, session 9 is also a user session. # '''A1''' closes session 9. # '''B1''' attempts to log out session 4. The attempt fails, because '''A''' and '''B''' have no access rights to each other’s sessions or objects. '''B1''' receives an error message which indicates that there is no such session handle (CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID). # '''B2''' attempts to close session 4. The attempt fails in precisely the same way as '''B1'''’s attempt to log out session 4 failed (''i.e.'', '''B2''' receives a CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID error code). # '''B1''' opens a R/W session and receives the session handle 7. Note that, as far as '''B''' is concerned, this is the first occurrence of session handle 7. '''A'''’s session 7 and '''B'''’s session 7 are completely different sessions. # '''B1''' logs the SO into ['''B'''’s] session 7. This turns '''B'''’s session 7 into a R/W SO session, and has no effect on either of '''A'''’s sessions. # '''B2''' attempts to open a R/O session. The attempt fails, since '''B''' already has an SO session open, and R/O SO sessions do not exist. '''B1''' receives an error message indicating that the existence of an SO session has blocked this attempt to open a R/O session (CKR_SESSION_READ_WRITE_SO_EXISTS). # '''A1''' uses ['''A'''’s] session 7 to create a session object '''O1''' of some sort and receives the object handle 7. Note that a Cryptoki implementation may or may not support separate spaces of handles for sessions and objects. # '''B1''' uses ['''B'''’s] session 7 to create a token object '''O2''' of some sort and receives the object handle 7. As with session handles, different applications have no access rights to each other’s object handles, and so '''B'''’s object handle 7 is entirely different from '''A'''’s object handle 7. Of course, since '''B1''' is an SO session, it cannot create private objects, and so '''O2''' must be a public object (if '''B1''' attempted to create a private object, the attempt would fail with error code CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN or CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT). # '''B2''' uses ['''B'''’s] session 7 to perform some operation to modify the object associated with ['''B'''’s] object handle 7. This modifies '''O2'''. # '''A1''' uses ['''A'''’s] session 4 to perform an object search operation to get a handle for '''O2'''. The search returns object handle 1. Note that '''A'''’s object handle 1 and '''B'''’s object handle 7 now point to the same object. # '''A1''' attempts to use ['''A'''’s] session 4 to modify the object associated with ['''A'''’s] object handle 1. The attempt fails, because '''A'''’s session 4 is a R/O session, and is therefore incapable of modifying '''O2''', which is a token object. '''A1''' receives an error message indicating that the session is a R/O session (CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY). # '''A1''' uses ['''A'''’s] session 7 to modify the object associated with ['''A'''’s] object handle 1. This time, since '''A'''’s session 7 is a R/W session, the attempt succeeds in modifying '''O2'''. # '''B1''' uses ['''B'''’s] session 7 to perform an object search operation to find '''O1'''. Since '''O1''' is a session object belonging to '''A''', however, the search does not succeed. # '''A2''' uses ['''A'''’s] session 4 to perform some operation to modify the object associated with ['''A'''’s] object handle 7. This operation modifies '''O1'''. # '''A2''' uses ['''A'''’s] session 7 to destroy the object associated with ['''A'''’s] object handle 1. This destroys '''O2'''. # '''B1''' attempts to perform some operation with the object associated with ['''B'''’s] object handle 7. The attempt fails, since there is no longer any such object. '''B1''' receives an error message indicating that its object handle is invalid (CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID). # '''A1''' logs out ['''A'''’s] session 4. This turns '''A'''’s session 4 into a R/O public session, and turns '''A'''’s session 7 into a R/W public session. # '''A1''' closes ['''A'''’s] session 7. This destroys the session object '''O1''', which was created by '''A'''’s session 7. # '''A2''' attempt to use ['''A'''’s] session 4 to perform some operation with the object associated with ['''A'''’s] object handle 7. The attempt fails, since there is no longer any such object. It returns a CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID. # '''A2''' executes a call to '''C_CloseAllSessions'''. This closes ['''A'''’s] session 4. At this point, if '''A''' were to open a new session, the session would not be logged in (''i.e.'', it would be a public session). # '''B2''' closes ['''B'''’s] session 7. At this point, if '''B''' were to open a new session, the session would not be logged in. # '''A''' and '''B''' each call '''C_Finalize''' to indicate that they are done with the Cryptoki library. == Secondary authentication (Deprecated) == '''Note:'''This support may be present for backwards compatibility. Refer to PKCS11 V 2.11 for details. == Function overview == The Cryptoki API consists of a number of functions, spanning slot and token management and object management, as well as cryptographic functions.

Two of the particular features of the interface that facilitate such security are the following: # Access to private objects on the token, and possibly to cryptographic functions and/or certificates on the token as well, requires a PIN. Thus, possessing the cryptographic device that implements the token may not be sufficient to use it; the PIN may also be needed. # Additional protection can be given to private keys and secret keys by marking them as “sensitive” or “unextractable”. Sensitive keys cannot be revealed in plaintext off the token, and unextractable keys cannot be revealed off the token even when encrypted (though they can still be used as keys). It is expected that access to private, sensitive, or unextractable objects by means other than Cryptoki (''e.g.'', other programming interfaces, or reverse engineering of the device) would be difficult. If a device does not have a tamper-proof environment or protected memory in which to store private and sensitive objects, the device may encrypt the objects with a master key which is perhaps derived from the user’s PIN. The particular mechanism for protecting private objects is left to the device implementation, however. Based on these features it should be possible to design applications in such a way that the token can provide adequate security for the objects the applications manage. Of course, cryptography is only one element of security, and the token is only one component in a system. While the token itself may be secure, one must also consider the security of the operating system by which the application interfaces to it, especially since the PIN may be passed through the operating system. This can make it easy for a rogue application on the operating system to obtain the PIN; it is also possible that other devices monitoring communication lines to the cryptographic device can obtain the PIN. Rogue applications and devices may also change the commands sent to the cryptographic device to obtain services other than what the application requested. It is important to be sure that the system is secure against such attack. Cryptoki may well play a role here; for instance, a token may be involved in the “booting up” of the system. We note that none of the attacks just described can compromise keys marked “sensitive,” since a key that is sensitive will always remain sensitive. Similarly, a key that is unextractable cannot be modified to be extractable. An application may also want to be sure that the token is “legitimate” in some sense (for a variety of reasons, including export restrictions and basic security). This is outside the scope of the present standard, but it can be achieved by distributing the token with a built-in, certified public/private-key pair, by which the token can prove its identity. The certificate would be signed by an authority (presumably the one indicating that the token is “legitimate”) whose public key is known to the application. The application would verify the certificate and challenge the token to prove its identity by signing a time-varying message with its built-in private key. Once a normal user has been authenticated to the token, Cryptoki does not restrict which cryptographic operations the user may perform; the user may perform any operation supported by the token. Some tokens may not even require any type of authentication to make use of its cryptographic functions. = Platform- and compiler-dependent directives for C or C++ = There is a large array of Cryptoki-related data types which are defined in the Cryptoki header files. Certain packing- and pointer-related aspects of these types are platform- and compiler-dependent; these aspects are therefore resolved on a platform-by-platform (or compiler-by-compiler) basis outside of the Cryptoki header files by means of preprocessor directives. This means that when writing C or C++ code, certain preprocessor directives must be issued before including a Cryptoki header file. These directives are described in the remainder of Section 8. == Structure packing == Cryptoki structures are packed to occupy as little space as is possible. In particular, on the Windows platforms, Cryptoki structures should be packed with 1-byte alignment. In a UNIX environment, it may or may not be necessary (or even possible) to alter the byte-alignment of structures. == Pointer-related macros == Because different platforms and compilers have different ways of dealing with different types of pointers, Cryptoki requires the following 6 macros to be set outside the scope of Cryptoki: * '''CK_PTR''' CK_PTR is the “indirection string” a given platform and compiler uses to make a pointer to an object. It is used in the following fashion: typedef CK_BYTE CK_PTR CK_BYTE_PTR; * '''CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(returnType, name), when followed by a parentheses-enclosed list of arguments and a function definition, defines a Cryptoki API function in a Cryptoki library. returnType is the return type of the function, and name is its name. It is used in the following fashion: CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_Initialize)( CK_VOID_PTR pReserved ) { ... } * '''CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION''' CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION(returnType, name), when followed by a parentheses-enclosed list of arguments and a semicolon, declares a Cryptoki API function in a Cryptoki library. returnType is the return type of the function, and name is its name. It is used in the following fashion: CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_Initialize)( CK_VOID_PTR pReserved ); * '''CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER''' CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(returnType, name), when followed by a parentheses-enclosed list of arguments and a semicolon, declares a variable or type which is a pointer to a Cryptoki API function in a Cryptoki library. returnType is the return type of the function, and name is its name. It can be used in either of the following fashions to define a function pointer variable, myC_Initialize, which can point to a '''C_Initialize''' function in a Cryptoki library (note that neither of the following code snippets actually ''assigns'' a value to myC_Initialize): CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(CK_RV, myC_Initialize)( CK_VOID_PTR pReserved ); or: typedef CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(CK_RV, myC_InitializeType)( CK_VOID_PTR pReserved ); myC_InitializeType myC_Initialize; * '''CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION''' CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(returnType, name), when followed by a parentheses-enclosed list of arguments and a semicolon, declares a variable or type which is a pointer to an application callback function that can be used by a Cryptoki API function in a Cryptoki library. returnType is the return type of the function, and name is its name. It can be used in either of the following fashions to define a function pointer variable, myCallback, which can point to an application callback which takes arguments args and returns a '''CK_RV''' (note that neither of the following code snippets actually ''assigns'' a value to myCallback): CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, myCallback)(args); or: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, myCallbackType)(args); myCallbackType myCallback; * '''NULL_PTR''' NULL_PTR is the value of a NULL pointer. In any ANSI C environment—and in many others as well—NULL_PTR should be defined simply as 0. == Sample platform- and compiler-dependent code == === Win32 === Developers using Microsoft Developer Studio 5.0 to produce C or C++ code which implements or makes use of a Win32 Cryptoki .dll might issue the following directives before including any Cryptoki header files: #pragma pack(push, cryptoki, 1) #define CK_IMPORT_SPEC __declspec(dllimport) /* Define CRYPTOKI_EXPORTS during the build of cryptoki * libraries. Do not define it in applications. */ #ifdef CRYPTOKI_EXPORTS #define CK_EXPORT_SPEC __declspec(dllexport) #else #define CK_EXPORT_SPEC CK_IMPORT_SPEC #endif /* Ensures the calling convention for Win32 builds */ #define CK_CALL_SPEC __cdecl #define CK_PTR * #define CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType CK_EXPORT_SPEC CK_CALL_SPEC name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType CK_EXPORT_SPEC CK_CALL_SPEC name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(returnType, name) \ returnType CK_IMPORT_SPEC (CK_CALL_SPEC CK_PTR name) #define CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType (CK_CALL_SPEC CK_PTR name) #ifndef NULL_PTR #define NULL_PTR 0 #endif Hence the calling convention for all C_xxx functions should correspond to "cdecl" where function parameters are passed from right to left and the caller removes parameters from the stack when the call returns. After including any Cryptoki header files, they might issue the following directives to reset the structure packing to its earlier value: #pragma pack(pop, cryptoki) === Win16 === Developers using a pre-5.0 version of Microsoft Developer Studio to produce C or C++ code which implements or makes use of a Win16 Cryptoki .dll might issue the following directives before including any Cryptoki header files: #pragma pack(1) #define CK_PTR far * #define CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType __export _far _pascal name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType __export _far _pascal name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(returnType, name) \ returnType __export _far _pascal (* name) #define CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType _far _pascal (* name) #ifndef NULL_PTR #define NULL_PTR 0 #endif === Generic UNIX === Developers performing generic UNIX development might issue the following directives before including any Cryptoki header files: #define CK_PTR * #define CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType name #define CK_DECLARE_FUNCTION_POINTER(returnType, name) \ returnType (* name) #define CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(returnType, name) \ returnType (* name) #ifndef NULL_PTR #define NULL_PTR 0 #endif = General data types = The general Cryptoki data types are described in the following subsections. The data types for holding parameters for various mechanisms, and the pointers to those parameters, are not described here; these types are described with the information on the mechanisms themselves, in Section 12. A C or C++ source file in a Cryptoki application or library can define all these types (the types described here and the types that are specifically used for particular mechanism parameters) by including the top-level Cryptoki include file, pkcs11.h. pkcs11.h, in turn, includes the other Cryptoki include files, pkcs11t.h and pkcs11f.h. A source file can also include just pkcs11t.h (instead of pkcs11.h); this defines most (but not all) of the types specified here. When including either of these header files, a source file must specify the preprocessor directives indicated in Section 8. == General information == Cryptoki represents general information with the following types: * '''CK_VERSION; CK_VERSION_PTR''' '''CK_VERSION''' is a structure that describes the version of a Cryptoki interface, a Cryptoki library, or an SSL implementation, or the hardware or firmware version of a slot or token. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_VERSION { CK_BYTE major; CK_BYTE minor; } CK_VERSION; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''major''major version number (the integer portion of the version) ''minor''minor version number (the hundredths portion of the version) Example: For version 1.0, ''major'' = 1 and ''minor'' = 0. For version 2.10, ''major'' = 2 and ''minor'' = 10. Table 9 below lists the major and minor version values for the officially published Cryptoki specifications. '''Table 9, Major and minor version values for published Cryptoki specifications''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Version''' | '''major''' | '''minor''' |- | 1.0 | 0x01 | 0x00 |- | 2.01 | 0x02 | 0x01 |- | 2.10 | 0x02 | 0x0a |- | 2.11 | 0x02 | 0x0b |- | 2.20 | 0x02 | 0x14 |- | 2.30 | 0x02 | 0x1e |} Minor revisions of the Cryptoki standard are always upwardly compatible within the same major version number. '''CK_VERSION_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_VERSION'''. * '''CK_INFO; CK_INFO_PTR''' '''CK_INFO''' provides general information about Cryptoki. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_INFO { CK_VERSION cryptokiVersion; CK_UTF8CHAR manufacturerID[32]; CK_FLAGS flags; CK_UTF8CHAR libraryDescription[32]; CK_VERSION libraryVersion; } CK_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''cryptokiVersion''Cryptoki interface version number, for compatibility with future revisions of this interface ''manufacturerID''ID of the Cryptoki library manufacturer. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''flags''bit flags reserved for future versions. Must be zero for this version ''libraryDescription''character-string description of the library. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''libraryVersion''Cryptoki library version number For libraries written to this document, the value of ''cryptokiVersion'' should match the version of this documentspecification; the value of ''libraryVersion'' is the version number of the library software itself. '''CK_INFO_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_INFO'''. * '''CK_NOTIFICATION''' '''CK_NOTIFICATION''' holds the types of notifications that Cryptoki provides to an application. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_NOTIFICATION; For this version of Cryptoki, the following types of notifications are defined: CKN_SURRENDER The notifications have the following meanings: ''CKN_SURRENDER''Cryptoki is surrendering the execution of a function executing in a session so that the application may perform other operations. After performing any desired operations, the application should indicate to Cryptoki whether to continue or cancel the function (see Section 11.17.1). == Slot and token types == Cryptoki represents slot and token information with the following types: * '''CK_SLOT_ID; CK_SLOT_ID_PTR''' '''CK_SLOT_ID''' is a Cryptoki-assigned value that identifies a slot. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_SLOT_ID; A list of '''CK_SLOT_ID'''s is returned by '''C_GetSlotList'''. A priori, ''any'' value of '''CK_SLOT_ID''' can be a valid slot identifier—in particular, a system may have a slot identified by the value 0. It need not have such a slot, however. '''CK_SLOT_ID_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_SLOT_ID'''. * '''CK_SLOT_INFO; CK_SLOT_INFO_PTR''' '''CK_SLOT_INFO''' provides information about a slot. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_SLOT_INFO { CK_UTF8CHAR slotDescription[64]; CK_UTF8CHAR manufacturerID[32]; CK_FLAGS flags; CK_VERSION hardwareVersion; CK_VERSION firmwareVersion; } CK_SLOT_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''slotDescription''character-string description of the slot. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''manufacturerID''ID of the slot manufacturer. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''flags''bits flags that provide capabilities of the slot. The flags are defined below ''hardwareVersion''version number of the slot’s hardware ''firmwareVersion''version number of the slot’s firmware The following table defines the ''flags'' field: '''Table 10, Slot Information Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit Flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_TOKEN_PRESENT | 0x00000001 | True if a token is present in the slot (''e.g.'', a device is in the reader) |- | CKF_REMOVABLE_DEVICE | 0x00000002 | True if the reader supports removable devices |- | CKF_HW_SLOT | 0x00000004 | True if the slot is a hardware slot, as opposed to a software slot implementing a “soft token” |} For a given slot, the value of the '''CKF_REMOVABLE_DEVICE''' flag ''never changes''. In addition, if this flag is not set for a given slot, then the '''CKF_TOKEN_PRESENT''' flag for that slot is ''always'' set. That is, if a slot does not support a removable device, then that slot always has a token in it. '''CK_SLOT_INFO_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_SLOT_INFO'''. * '''CK_TOKEN_INFO; CK_TOKEN_INFO_PTR''' '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' provides information about a token. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_TOKEN_INFO { CK_UTF8CHAR label[32]; CK_UTF8CHAR manufacturerID[32]; CK_UTF8CHAR model[16]; CK_CHAR serialNumber[16]; CK_FLAGS flags; CK_ULONG ulMaxSessionCount; CK_ULONG ulSessionCount; CK_ULONG ulMaxRwSessionCount; CK_ULONG ulRwSessionCount; CK_ULONG ulMaxPinLen; CK_ULONG ulMinPinLen; CK_ULONG ulTotalPublicMemory; CK_ULONG ulFreePublicMemory; CK_ULONG ulTotalPrivateMemory; CK_ULONG ulFreePrivateMemory; CK_VERSION hardwareVersion; CK_VERSION firmwareVersion; CK_CHAR utcTime[16]; } CK_TOKEN_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''label''application-defined label, assigned during token initialization. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''manufacturerID''ID of the device manufacturer. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''model''model of the device. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''serialNumber''character-string serial number of the device. Must be padded with the blank character (‘ ‘). Should ''not'' be null-terminated. ''flags''bit flags indicating capabilities and status of the device as defined below ''ulMaxSessionCount''maximum number of sessions that can be opened with the token at one time by a single application (see note below) ''ulSessionCount''number of sessions that this application currently has open with the token (see note below) ''ulMaxRwSessionCount''maximum number of read/write sessions that can be opened with the token at one time by a single application (see note below) ''ulRwSessionCount''number of read/write sessions that this application currently has open with the token (see note below) ''ulMaxPinLen''maximum length in bytes of the PIN ''ulMinPinLen''minimum length in bytes of the PIN ''ulTotalPublicMemory''the total amount of memory on the token in bytes in which public objects may be stored (see note below) ''ulFreePublicMemory''the amount of free (unused) memory on the token in bytes for public objects (see note below) ''ulTotalPrivateMemory''the total amount of memory on the token in bytes in which private objects may be stored (see note below) ''ulFreePrivateMemory''the amount of free (unused) memory on the token in bytes for private objects (see note below) ''hardwareVersion''version number of hardware ''firmwareVersion''version number of firmware ''utcTime''current time as a character-string of length 16, represented in the format YYYYMMDDhhmmssxx (4 characters for the year; 2 characters each for the month, the day, the hour, the minute, and the second; and 2 additional reserved ‘0’ characters). The value of this field only makes sense for tokens equipped with a clock, as indicated in the token information flags (see below) The following table defines the ''flags'' field: '''Table 11, Token Information Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit Flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_RNG | 0x00000001 | True if the token has its own random number generator |- | CKF_WRITE_PROTECTED | 0x00000002 | True if the token is write-protected (see below) |- | CKF_LOGIN_REQUIRED | 0x00000004 | True if there are some cryptographic functions that a user must be logged in to perform |- | CKF_USER_PIN_INITIALIZED | 0x00000008 | True if the normal user’s PIN has been initialized |- | CKF_RESTORE_KEY_NOT_NEEDED | 0x00000020 | True if a successful save of a session’s cryptographic operations state ''always'' contains all keys needed to restore the state of the session |- | CKF_CLOCK_ON_TOKEN | 0x00000040 | True if token has its own hardware clock |- | CKF_PROTECTED_AUTHENTICATION_PATH | 0x00000100 | True if token has a “protected authentication path”, whereby a user can log into the token without passing a PIN through the Cryptoki library |- | CKF_DUAL_CRYPTO_OPERATIONS | 0x00000200 | True if a single session with the token can perform dual cryptographic operations (see Section 11.13) |- | CKF_TOKEN_INITIALIZED | 0x00000400 | True if the token has been initialized using C_InitToken or an equivalent mechanism outside the scope of this standard. Calling C_InitToken when this flag is set will cause the token to be reinitialized. |- | CKF_SECONDARY_AUTHENTICATION | 0x00000800 | True if the token supports secondary authentication for private key objects. (Deprecated; new implementations MUST NOT set this flag) |- | CKF_USER_PIN_COUNT_LOW | 0x00010000 | True if an incorrect user login PIN has been entered at least once since the last successful authentication. |- | CKF_USER_PIN_FINAL_TRY | 0x00020000 | True if supplying an incorrect user PIN will cause it to become locked. |- | CKF_USER_PIN_LOCKED | 0x00040000 | True if the user PIN has been locked. User login to the token is not possible. |- | CKF_USER_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED | 0x00080000 | True if the user PIN value is the default value set by token initialization or manufacturing, or the PIN has been expired by the card. |- | CKF_SO_PIN_COUNT_LOW | 0x00100000 | True if an incorrect SO login PIN has been entered at least once since the last successful authentication. |- | CKF_SO_PIN_FINAL_TRY | 0x00200000 | True if supplying an incorrect SO PIN will cause it to become locked. |- | CKF_SO_PIN_LOCKED | 0x00400000 | True if the SO PIN has been locked. SO login to the token is not possible. |- | CKF_SO_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED | 0x00800000 | True if the SO PIN value is the default value set by token initialization or manufacturing, or the PIN has been expired by the card. |- | CKF_ERROR_STATE | 0x01000000 | True if the token failed a FIPS 140-2 self-test and entered an error state. |} Exactly what the '''CKF_WRITE_PROTECTED''' flag means is not specified in Cryptoki. An application may be unable to perform certain actions on a write-protected token; these actions can include any of the following, among others: * Creating/modifying/deleting any object on the token. * Creating/modifying/deleting a token object on the token. * Changing the SO’s PIN. * Changing the normal user’s PIN. The token may change the value of the '''CKF_WRITE_PROTECTED''' flag depending on the session state to implement its object management policy. For instance, the token may set the '''CKF_WRITE_PROTECTED''' flag unless the session state is R/W SO or R/W User to implement a policy that does not allow any objects, public or private, to be created, modified, or deleted unless the user has successfully called C_Login. The '''CKF_USER_PIN_COUNT_LOW''', '''CKF_USER_PIN_COUNT_LOW''', '''CKF_USER_PIN_FINAL_TRY''', and '''CKF_SO_PIN_FINAL_TRY '''flags may always be set to false if the token does not support the functionality or will not reveal the information because of its security policy. The '''CKF_USER_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED''' and '''CKF_SO_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED '''flags may always be set to false if the token does not support the functionality. If a PIN is set to the default value, or has expired, the appropriate '''CKF_USER_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED''' or '''CKF_SO_PIN_TO_BE_CHANGED''' flag is set to true. When either of these flags are true, logging in with the corresponding PIN will succeed, but only the C_SetPIN function can be called. Calling any other function that required the user to be logged in will cause CKR_PIN_EXPIRED to be returned until C_SetPIN is called successfully. Note: The fields ''ulMaxSessionCount'', ''ulSessionCount'', ''ulMaxRwSessionCount'', ''ulRwSessionCount'', ''ulTotalPublicMemory'', ''ulFreePublicMemory'', ''ulTotalPrivateMemory'', and ''ulFreePrivateMemory'' can have the special value CK_UNAVAILABLE_INFORMATION, which means that the token and/or library is unable or unwilling to provide that information. In addition, the fields ''ulMaxSessionCount'' and ''ulMaxRwSessionCount'' can have the special value CK_EFFECTIVELY_INFINITE, which means that there is no practical limit on the number of sessions (resp. R/W sessions) an application can have open with the token. It is important to check these fields for these special values. This is particularly true for CK_EFFECTIVELY_INFINITE, since an application seeing this value in the ''ulMaxSessionCount'' or ''ulMaxRwSessionCount'' field would otherwise conclude that it can’t open ''any'' sessions with the token, which is far from being the case. The upshot of all this is that the correct way to interpret (for example) the ''ulMaxSessionCount'' field is something along the lines of the following: CK_TOKEN_INFO info; . . if ((CK_LONG) info.ulMaxSessionCount == CK_UNAVAILABLE_INFORMATION) { /* Token refuses to give value of ulMaxSessionCount */ . . } else if (info.ulMaxSessionCount == CK_EFFECTIVELY_INFINITE) { /* Application can open as many sessions as it wants */ . . } else { /* ulMaxSessionCount really does contain what it should */ . . } '''CK_TOKEN_INFO_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_TOKEN_INFO'''. == Session types == Cryptoki represents session information with the following types: * '''CK_SESSION_HANDLE; CK_SESSION_HANDLE_PTR''' '''CK_SESSION_HANDLE''' is a Cryptoki-assigned value that identifies a session. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_SESSION_HANDLE; ''Valid session handles in Cryptoki always have nonzero values.'' For developers’ convenience, Cryptoki defines the following symbolic value: CK_INVALID_HANDLE '''CK_SESSION_HANDLE_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_SESSION_HANDLE'''. * '''CK_USER_TYPE''' '''CK_USER_TYPE''' holds the types of Cryptoki users described in Section 6.5, and, in addition, a context-specific type described in Section 10.9. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_USER_TYPE; For this version of Cryptoki, the following types of users are defined: CKU_SO CKU_USER CKU_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC * '''CK_STATE''' '''CK_STATE''' holds the session state, as described in Sections 6.7.1 and 6.7.2. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_STATE; For this version of Cryptoki, the following session states are defined: CKS_RO_PUBLIC_SESSION CKS_RO_USER_FUNCTIONS CKS_RW_PUBLIC_SESSION CKS_RW_USER_FUNCTIONS CKS_RW_SO_FUNCTIONS * '''CK_SESSION_INFO; CK_SESSION_INFO_PTR''' '''CK_SESSION_INFO''' provides information about a session. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_SESSION_INFO { CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_STATE state; CK_FLAGS flags; CK_ULONG ulDeviceError; } CK_SESSION_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''slotID''ID of the slot that interfaces with the token ''state''the state of the session ''flags''bit flags that define the type of session; the flags are defined below ''ulDeviceError''an error code defined by the cryptographic device. Used for errors not covered by Cryptoki. The following table defines the ''flags'' field: '''Table 12, Session Information Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit Flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_RW_SESSION | 0x00000002 | True if the session is read/write; false if the session is read-only |- | CKF_SERIAL_SESSION | 0x00000004 | This flag is provided for backward compatibility, and should always be set to true |} '''CK_SESSION_INFO_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_SESSION_INFO'''. == Object types == Cryptoki represents object information with the following types: * '''CK_OBJECT_HANDLE; CK_OBJECT_HANDLE_PTR''' '''CK_OBJECT_HANDLE''' is a token-specific identifier for an object. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_OBJECT_HANDLE; When an object is created or found on a token by an application, Cryptoki assigns it an object handle for that application’s sessions to use to access it. A particular object on a token does not necessarily have a handle which is fixed for the lifetime of the object; however, if a particular session can use a particular handle to access a particular object, then that session will continue to be able to use that handle to access that object as long as the session continues to exist, the object continues to exist, and the object continues to be accessible to the session. ''Valid object handles in Cryptoki always have nonzero values.'' For developers’ convenience, Cryptoki defines the following symbolic value: CK_INVALID_HANDLE '''CK_OBJECT_HANDLE_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_OBJECT_HANDLE'''. * '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS; CK_OBJECT_CLASS_PTR''' '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS''' is a value that identifies the classes (or types) of objects that Cryptoki recognizes. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_OBJECT_CLASS; Object classes are defined with the objects that use them. The type is specified on an object through the CKA_CLASS attribute of the object. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKO_VENDOR_ DEFINED Object classes '''CKO_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their object classes through the PKCS process. '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS'''. * '''CK_HW_FEATURE_TYPE''' '''CK_HW_FEATURE_TYPE''' is a value that identifies a hardware feature type of a device. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_HW_FEATURE_TYPE; Hardware feature types are defined with the objects that use them. The type is specified on an object through the CKA_HW_FEATURE_TYPE attribute of the object. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKH_VENDOR_DEFINED Feature types '''CKH_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their feature types through the PKCS process. * '''CK_KEY_TYPE''' '''CK_KEY_TYPE''' is a value that identifies a key type. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_KEY_TYPE; Key types are defined with the objects and mechanisms that use them. The key type is specified on an object through the CKA_KEY_TYPE attribute of the object. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKK_VENDOR_DEFINED Key types '''CKK_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their key types through the PKCS process. * '''CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE''' '''CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE''' is a value that identifies a certificate type. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE; Certificate types are defined with the objects and mechanisms that use them. The certificate type is specified on an object through the CKA_CERTIFICATE_TYPE attribute of the object. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKC_VENDOR_DEFINED Certificate types '''CKC_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their certificate types through the PKCS process. * '''CK_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE ''' '''CK_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE''' is a value that identifies an attribute type. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE; Attributes are defined with the objects and mechanisms that use them. Attributes are specified on an object as a list of type, length value items. These are often specified as an attribute template. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKA_VENDOR_DEFINED Attribute types '''CKA_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their attribute types through the PKCS process. * '''CK_ATTRIBUTE; CK_ATTRIBUTE_PTR''' '''CK_ATTRIBUTE '''is a structure that includes the type, value, and length of an attribute. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_ATTRIBUTE { CK_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE type; CK_VOID_PTR pValue; CK_ULONG ulValueLen; } CK_ATTRIBUTE; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''type''the attribute type ''pValue''pointer to the value of the attribute ''ulValueLen''length in bytes of the value If an attribute has no value, then ''ulValueLen'' = 0, and the value of ''pValue'' is irrelevant. An array of '''CK_ATTRIBUTE'''s is called a “template” and is used for creating, manipulating and searching for objects. The order of the attributes in a template ''never'' matters, even if the template contains vendor-specific attributes. Note that ''pValue'' is a “void” pointer, facilitating the passing of arbitrary values. Both the application and Cryptoki library must ensure that the pointer can be safely cast to the expected type (''i.e.'', without word-alignment errors). '''CK_ATTRIBUTE_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_ATTRIBUTE'''. * '''CK_DATE''' '''CK_DATE '''is a structure that defines a date. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_DATE { CK_CHAR year[4]; CK_CHAR month[2]; CK_CHAR day[2]; } CK_DATE; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''year''the year (“1900” - “9999”) ''month''the month (“01” - “12”) ''day''the day (“01” - “31”) The fields hold numeric characters from the character set in Table 3, not the literal byte values. When a Cryptoki object carries an attribute of this type, and the default value of the attribute is specified to be "empty," then Cryptoki libraries shall set the attribute's ''ulValueLen'' to 0. Note that implementations of previous versions of Cryptoki may have used other methods to identify an "empty" attribute of type CK_DATE, and that applications that needs to interoperate with these libraries therefore have to be flexible in what they accept as an empty value. == Data types for mechanisms == Cryptoki supports the following types for describing mechanisms and parameters to them: * '''CK_MECHANISM_TYPE; CK_MECHANISM_TYPE_PTR''' '''CK_MECHANISM_TYPE '''is a value that identifies a mechanism type. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_MECHANISM_TYPE; Mechanism types are defined with the objects and mechanism descriptions that use them. Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKM_VENDOR_DEFINED Mechanism types '''CKM_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their mechanism types through the PKCS process. '''CK_MECHANISM_TYPE_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_MECHANISM_TYPE'''. * '''CK_MECHANISM; CK_MECHANISM_PTR''' '''CK_MECHANISM''' is a structure that specifies a particular mechanism and any parameters it requires. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_MECHANISM { CK_MECHANISM_TYPE mechanism; CK_VOID_PTR pParameter; CK_ULONG ulParameterLen; } CK_MECHANISM; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''mechanism''the type of mechanism ''pParameter''pointer to the parameter if required by the mechanism ''ulParameterLen''length in bytes of the parameter Note that ''pParameter'' is a “void” pointer, facilitating the passing of arbitrary values. Both the application and the Cryptoki library must ensure that the pointer can be safely cast to the expected type (''i.e.'', without word-alignment errors). '''CK_MECHANISM_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_MECHANISM'''. * '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO; CK_MECHANISM_INFO_PTR''' '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' is a structure that provides information about a particular mechanism. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_MECHANISM_INFO { CK_ULONG ulMinKeySize; CK_ULONG ulMaxKeySize; CK_FLAGS flags; } CK_MECHANISM_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''ulMinKeySize''the minimum size of the key for the mechanism (whether this is measured in bits or in bytes is mechanism-dependent) ''ulMaxKeySize''the maximum size of the key for the mechanism (whether this is measured in bits or in bytes is mechanism-dependent) ''flags''bit flags specifying mechanism capabilities For some mechanisms, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields have meaningless values. The following table defines the ''flags'' field: '''Table 13, Mechanism Information Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit Flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_HW | 0x00000001 | True if the mechanism is performed by the device; false if the mechanism is performed in software |- | CKF_ENCRYPT | 0x00000100 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_EncryptInit''' |- | CKF_DECRYPT | 0x00000200 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_DecryptInit''' |- | CKF_DIGEST | 0x00000400 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_DigestInit''' |- | CKF_SIGN | 0x00000800 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_SignInit''' |- | CKF_SIGN_RECOVER | 0x00001000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_SignRecoverInit''' |- | CKF_VERIFY | 0x00002000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_VerifyInit''' |- | CKF_VERIFY_RECOVER | 0x00004000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_VerifyRecoverInit''' |- | CKF_GENERATE | 0x00008000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_GenerateKey''' |- | CKF_GENERATE_KEY_PAIR | 0x00010000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_GenerateKeyPair''' |- | CKF_WRAP | 0x00020000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_WrapKey''' |- | CKF_UNWRAP | 0x00040000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_UnwrapKey''' |- | CKF_DERIVE | 0x00080000 | True if the mechanism can be used with '''C_DeriveKey''' |- | CKF_EXTENSION | 0x80000000 | True if there is an extension to the flags; false if no extensions. Must be false for this version. |} '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO'''. == Function types == Cryptoki represents information about functions with the following data types: * '''CK_RV''' '''CK_RV''' is a value that identifies the return value of a Cryptoki function. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_RV; Vendor defined values for this type may also be specified. CKR_VENDOR_DEFINED Section 11.1 defines the meaning of each '''CK_RV''' value. Return values '''CKR_VENDOR_DEFINED''' and above are permanently reserved for token vendors. For interoperability, vendors should register their return values through the PKCS process. * '''CK_NOTIFY''' '''CK_NOTIFY''' is the type of a pointer to a function used by Cryptoki to perform notification callbacks. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, CK_NOTIFY)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession, CK_NOTIFICATION event, CK_VOID_PTR pApplication ); The arguments to a notification callback function have the following meanings: ''hSession''The handle of the session performing the callback ''event''The type of notification callback ''pApplication''An application-defined value. This is the same value as was passed to '''C_OpenSession''' to open the session performing the callback * '''CK_C_XXX''' Cryptoki also defines an entire family of other function pointer types. For each function '''C_XXX''' in the Cryptoki API (see Section 10.12 for detailed information about each of them), Cryptoki defines a type '''CK_C_XXX''', which is a pointer to a function with the same arguments and return value as '''C_XXX''' has. An appropriately-set variable of type '''CK_C_XXX''' may be used by an application to call the Cryptoki function '''C_XXX'''. * '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST; CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR; CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR_PTR''' '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' is a structure which contains a Cryptoki version and a function pointer to each function in the Cryptoki API. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_FUNCTION_LIST { CK_VERSION version; CK_C_Initialize C_Initialize; CK_C_Finalize C_Finalize; CK_C_GetInfo C_GetInfo; CK_C_GetFunctionList C_GetFunctionList; CK_C_GetSlotList C_GetSlotList; CK_C_GetSlotInfo C_GetSlotInfo; CK_C_GetTokenInfo C_GetTokenInfo; CK_C_GetMechanismList C_GetMechanismList; CK_C_GetMechanismInfo C_GetMechanismInfo; CK_C_InitToken C_InitToken; CK_C_InitPIN C_InitPIN; CK_C_SetPIN C_SetPIN; CK_C_OpenSession C_OpenSession; CK_C_CloseSession C_CloseSession; CK_C_CloseAllSessions C_CloseAllSessions; CK_C_GetSessionInfo C_GetSessionInfo; CK_C_GetOperationState C_GetOperationState; CK_C_SetOperationState C_SetOperationState; CK_C_Login C_Login; CK_C_Logout C_Logout; CK_C_CreateObject C_CreateObject; CK_C_CopyObject C_CopyObject; CK_C_DestroyObject C_DestroyObject; CK_C_GetObjectSize C_GetObjectSize; CK_C_GetAttributeValue C_GetAttributeValue; CK_C_SetAttributeValue C_SetAttributeValue; CK_C_FindObjectsInit C_FindObjectsInit; CK_C_FindObjects C_FindObjects; CK_C_FindObjectsFinal C_FindObjectsFinal; CK_C_EncryptInit C_EncryptInit; CK_C_Encrypt C_Encrypt; CK_C_EncryptUpdate C_EncryptUpdate; CK_C_EncryptFinal C_EncryptFinal; CK_C_DecryptInit C_DecryptInit; CK_C_Decrypt C_Decrypt; CK_C_DecryptUpdate C_DecryptUpdate; CK_C_DecryptFinal C_DecryptFinal; CK_C_DigestInit C_DigestInit; CK_C_Digest C_Digest; CK_C_DigestUpdate C_DigestUpdate; CK_C_DigestKey C_DigestKey; CK_C_DigestFinal C_DigestFinal; CK_C_SignInit C_SignInit; CK_C_Sign C_Sign; CK_C_SignUpdate C_SignUpdate; CK_C_SignFinal C_SignFinal; CK_C_SignRecoverInit C_SignRecoverInit; CK_C_SignRecover C_SignRecover; CK_C_VerifyInit C_VerifyInit; CK_C_Verify C_Verify; CK_C_VerifyUpdate C_VerifyUpdate; CK_C_VerifyFinal C_VerifyFinal; CK_C_VerifyRecoverInit C_VerifyRecoverInit; CK_C_VerifyRecover C_VerifyRecover; CK_C_DigestEncryptUpdate C_DigestEncryptUpdate; CK_C_DecryptDigestUpdate C_DecryptDigestUpdate; CK_C_SignEncryptUpdate C_SignEncryptUpdate; CK_C_DecryptVerifyUpdate C_DecryptVerifyUpdate; CK_C_GenerateKey C_GenerateKey; CK_C_GenerateKeyPair C_GenerateKeyPair; CK_C_WrapKey C_WrapKey; CK_C_UnwrapKey C_UnwrapKey; CK_C_DeriveKey C_DeriveKey; CK_C_SeedRandom C_SeedRandom; CK_C_GenerateRandom C_GenerateRandom; CK_C_GetFunctionStatus C_GetFunctionStatus; CK_C_CancelFunction C_CancelFunction; CK_C_WaitForSlotEvent C_WaitForSlotEvent; } CK_FUNCTION_LIST; Each Cryptoki library has a static '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure, and a pointer to it (or to a copy of it which is also owned by the library) may be obtained by the '''C_GetFunctionList''' function (see Section 11.2). The value that this pointer points to can be used by an application to quickly find out where the executable code for each function in the Cryptoki API is located. ''Every function in the Cryptoki API must have an entry point defined in the Cryptoki library’s '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure''. If a particular function in the Cryptoki API is not supported by a library, then the function pointer for that function in the library’s '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure should point to a function stub which simply returns CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED. In this structure ‘version’ is the cryptoki specification version number. It should match the value of ‘cryptokiVersion’ returned in the CK_INFO structure. An application may or may not be able to modify a Cryptoki library’s static '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure. Whether or not it can, it should never attempt to do so. '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST'''. '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR'''. == Locking-related types == The types in this section are provided solely for applications which need to access Cryptoki from multiple threads simultaneously. ''Applications which will not do this need not use any of these types.'' * '''CK_CREATEMUTEX''' '''CK_CREATEMUTEX''' is the type of a pointer to an application-supplied function which creates a new mutex object and returns a pointer to it. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, CK_CREATEMUTEX)( CK_VOID_PTR_PTR ppMutex ); Calling a '''CK_CREATEMUTEX''' function returns the pointer to the new mutex object in the location pointed to by ''ppMutex''. Such a function should return one of the following values: CKR_OK, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY. * '''CK_DESTROYMUTEX''' '''CK_DESTROYMUTEX''' is the type of a pointer to an application-supplied function which destroys an existing mutex object. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, CK_DESTROYMUTEX)( CK_VOID_PTR pMutex ); The argument to a '''CK_DESTROYMUTEX''' function is a pointer to the mutex object to be destroyed. Such a function should return one of the following values: CKR_OK, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_MUTEX_BAD. * '''CK_LOCKMUTEX and CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' is the type of a pointer to an application-supplied function which locks an existing mutex object. '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' is the type of a pointer to an application-supplied function which unlocks an existing mutex object. The proper behavior for these types of functions is as follows: * If a '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is not locked, the calling thread obtains a lock on that mutex and returns. * If a '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is locked by some thread other than the calling thread, the calling thread blocks and waits for that mutex to be unlocked. * If a '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is locked by the calling thread, the behavior of the function call is undefined. * If a '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is locked by the calling thread, that mutex is unlocked and the function call returns. Furthermore: * If exactly one thread was blocking on that particular mutex, then that thread stops blocking, obtains a lock on that mutex, and its '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' call returns. * If more than one thread was blocking on that particular mutex, then exactly one of the blocking threads is selected somehow. That lucky thread stops blocking, obtains a lock on the mutex, and its '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' call returns. All other threads blocking on that particular mutex continue to block. * If a '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is not locked, then the function call returns the error code CKR_MUTEX_NOT_LOCKED. * If a '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' function is called on a mutex which is locked by some thread other than the calling thread, the behavior of the function call is undefined. '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' is defined as follows: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, CK_LOCKMUTEX)( CK_VOID_PTR pMutex ); The argument to a '''CK_LOCKMUTEX''' function is a pointer to the mutex object to be locked. Such a function should return one of the following values: CKR_OK, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_MUTEX_BAD. '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' is defined as follows: typedef CK_CALLBACK_FUNCTION(CK_RV, CK_UNLOCKMUTEX)( CK_VOID_PTR pMutex ); The argument to a '''CK_UNLOCKMUTEX''' function is a pointer to the mutex object to be unlocked. Such a function should return one of the following values: CKR_OK, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_MUTEX_BAD, CKR_MUTEX_NOT_LOCKED. * '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS; CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS_PTR''' '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS''' is a structure containing the optional arguments for the '''C_Initialize''' function. For this version of Cryptoki, these optional arguments are all concerned with the way the library deals with threads. '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS''' is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS { CK_CREATEMUTEX CreateMutex; CK_DESTROYMUTEX DestroyMutex; CK_LOCKMUTEX LockMutex; CK_UNLOCKMUTEX UnlockMutex; CK_FLAGS flags; CK_VOID_PTR pReserved; } CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''CreateMutex''pointer to a function to use for creating mutex objects ''DestroyMutex''pointer to a function to use for destroying mutex objects ''LockMutex''pointer to a function to use for locking mutex objects ''UnlockMutex''pointer to a function to use for unlocking mutex objects ''flags''bit flags specifying options for '''C_Initialize'''; the flags are defined below ''pReserved''reserved for future use. Should be NULL_PTR for this version of Cryptoki The following table defines the ''flags'' field: '''Table 14, C_Initialize Parameter Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit Flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_LIBRARY_CANT_CREATE_OS_THREADS | 0x00000001 | True if application threads which are executing calls to the library may ''not'' use native operating system calls to spawn new threads; false if they may |- | CKF_OS_LOCKING_OK | 0x00000002 | True if the library can use the native operation system threading model for locking; false otherwise |} '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS'''. = Objects = Cryptoki recognizes a number of classes of objects, as defined in the '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS''' data type. An object consists of a set of attributes, each of which has a given value. Each attribute that an object possesses has precisely one value. The following figure illustrates the high-level hierarchy of the Cryptoki objects and some of the attributes they support:
[[Image:]]
'''Figure 5, Object Attribute Hierarchy'''
Cryptoki provides functions for creating, destroying, and copying objects in general, and for obtaining and modifying the values of their attributes. Some of the cryptographic functions (''e.g.'', '''C_GenerateKey''') also create key objects to hold their results. Objects are always “well-formed” in Cryptoki—that is, an object always contains all required attributes, and the attributes are always consistent with one another from the time the object is created. This contrasts with some object-based paradigms where an object has no attributes other than perhaps a class when it is created, and is uninitialized for some time. In Cryptoki, objects are always initialized. Tables throughout most of Section 10 define each Cryptoki attribute in terms of the data type of the attribute value and the meaning of the attribute, which may include a default initial value. Some of the data types are defined explicitly by Cryptoki (''e.g.'', '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS'''). Attribute values may also take the following types: Byte arrayan arbitrary string (array) of '''CK_BYTE'''s Big integera string of '''CK_BYTE'''s representing an unsigned integer of arbitrary size, most-significant byte first (''e.g.'', the integer 32768 is represented as the 2-byte string 0x80 0x00) Local stringan unpadded string of '''CK_CHAR'''s (see Table 3) with no null-termination RFC2279 stringan unpadded string of '''CK_UTF8CHARs''' with no null-termination A token can hold several identical objects, ''i.e.'', it is permissible for two or more objects to have exactly the same values for all their attributes. In most cases each type of object in the Cryptoki specification possesses a completely well-defined set of Cryptoki attributes. Some of these attributes possess default values, and need not be specified when creating an object; some of these default values may even be the empty string (“”). Nonetheless, the object possesses these attributes. A given object has a single value for each attribute it possesses, even if the attribute is a vendor-specific attribute whose meaning is outside the scope of Cryptoki. In addition to possessing Cryptoki attributes, objects may possess additional vendor-specific attributes whose meanings and values are not specified by Cryptoki. == Creating, modifying, and copying objects == All Cryptoki functions that create, modify, or copy objects take a template as one of their arguments, where the template specifies attribute values. Cryptographic functions that create objects (see Section 11.14) may also contribute some additional attribute values themselves; which attributes have values contributed by a cryptographic function call depends on which cryptographic mechanism is being performed (see Section 12). In any case, all the required attributes supported by an object class that do not have default values must be specified when an object is created, either in the template or by the function itself. === Creating objects === Objects may be created with the Cryptoki functions '''C_CreateObject''' (see Section 11.7), '''C_GenerateKey''', '''C_GenerateKeyPair''', '''C_UnwrapKey''', and '''C_DeriveKey''' (see Section 11.14). In addition, copying an existing object (with the function '''C_CopyObject''') also creates a new object, but we consider this type of object creation separately in Section 10.1.3. Attempting to create an object with any of these functions requires an appropriate template to be supplied. # If the supplied template specifies a value for an invalid attribute, then the attempt should fail with the error code CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID. An attribute is valid if it is either one of the attributes described in the Cryptoki specification or an additional vendor-specific attribute supported by the library and token. # If the supplied template specifies an invalid value for a valid attribute, then the attempt should fail with the error code CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID. The valid values for Cryptoki attributes are described in the Cryptoki specification. # If the supplied template specifies a value for a read-only attribute, then the attempt should fail with the error code CKR_ATTRIBUTE_READ_ONLY. Whether or not a given Cryptoki attribute is read-only is explicitly stated in the Cryptoki specification; however, a particular library and token may be even more restrictive than Cryptoki specifies. In other words, an attribute which Cryptoki says is not read-only may nonetheless be read-only under certain circumstances (''i.e.'', in conjunction with some combinations of other attributes) for a particular library and token. Whether or not a given non-Cryptoki attribute is read-only is obviously outside the scope of Cryptoki. # If the attribute values in the supplied template, together with any default attribute values and any attribute values contributed to the object by the object-creation function itself, are insufficient to fully specify the object to create, then the attempt should fail with the error code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCOMPLETE. # If the attribute values in the supplied template, together with any default attribute values and any attribute values contributed to the object by the object-creation function itself, are inconsistent, then the attempt should fail with the error code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT. A set of attribute values is inconsistent if not all of its members can be satisfied simultaneously ''by the token'', although each value individually is valid in Cryptoki. One example of an inconsistent template would be using a template which specifies two different values for the same attribute. Another example would be trying to create a secret key object with an attribute which is appropriate for various types of public keys or private keys, but not for secret keys. A final example would be a template with an attribute that violates some token specific requirement. Note that this final example of an inconsistent template is token-dependent—on a different token, such a template might ''not'' be inconsistent. # If the supplied template specifies the same value for a particular attribute more than once (or the template specifies the same value for a particular attribute that the object-creation function itself contributes to the object), then the behavior of Cryptoki is not completely specified. The attempt to create an object can either succeed—thereby creating the same object that would have been created if the multiply-specified attribute had only appeared once—or it can fail with error code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT. Library developers are encouraged to make their libraries behave as though the attribute had only appeared once in the template; application developers are strongly encouraged never to put a particular attribute into a particular template more than once. If more than one of the situations listed above applies to an attempt to create an object, then the error code returned from the attempt can be any of the error codes from above that applies. === Modifying objects === Objects may be modified with the Cryptoki function '''C_SetAttributeValue''' (see Section 11.7). The template supplied to '''C_SetAttributeValue''' can contain new values for attributes which the object already possesses; values for attributes which the object does not yet possess; or both. Some attributes of an object may be modified after the object has been created, and some may not. In addition, attributes which Cryptoki specifies are modifiable may actually ''not'' be modifiable on some tokens. That is, if a Cryptoki attribute is described as being modifiable, that really means only that it is modifiable ''insofar as the Cryptoki specification is concerned''. A particular token might not actually support modification of some such attributes. Furthermore, whether or not a particular attribute of an object on a particular token is modifiable might depend on the values of certain attributes of the object. For example, a secret key object’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute can be changed from CK_FALSE to CK_TRUE, but not the other way around. All the scenarios in Section 10.1.1—and the error codes they return—apply to modifying objects with '''C_SetAttributeValue''', except for the possibility of a template being incomplete. === Copying objects === Unless an object's CKA_COPYABLE (see table 21) attribute is set to CK_FALSE, it may be copied with the Cryptoki function '''C_CopyObject''' (see Section 11.7). In the process of copying an object, '''C_CopyObject''' also modifies the attributes of the newly-created copy according to an application-supplied template. The Cryptoki attributes which can be modified during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' operation are the same as the Cryptoki attributes which are described as being modifiable, plus the three special attributes '''CKA_TOKEN''', '''CKA_PRIVATE''', and '''CKA_MODIFIABLE'''. To be more precise, these attributes are modifiable during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' operation ''insofar as the Cryptoki specification is concerned''. A particular token might not actually support modification of some such attributes during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' operation. Furthermore, whether or not a particular attribute of an object on a particular token is modifiable during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' operation might depend on the values of certain attributes of the object. For example, a secret key object’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute can be changed from CK_FALSE to CK_TRUE during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' operation, but not the other way around. If the CKA_COPYABLE attribute of the object to be copied is set to CK_FALSE, C_CopyObject returns CKR_COPY_PROHIBITED. Otherwise, the scenarios described in 10.1.1 - and the error codes they return - apply to copying objects with C_CopyObject, except for the possibility of a template being incomplete. == Common attributes == '''Table 15, Common footnotes for object attribute tables''' {| class="prettytable" | 1 Must be specified when object is created with '''C_CreateObject'''. 2 Must ''not'' be specified when object is created with '''C_CreateObject'''. 3 Must be specified when object is generated with '''C_GenerateKey''' or '''C_GenerateKeyPair'''. 4 Must ''not'' be specified when object is generated with '''C_GenerateKey''' or '''C_GenerateKeyPair'''. 5 Must be specified when object is unwrapped with '''C_UnwrapKey'''. 6 Must ''not'' be specified when object is unwrapped with '''C_UnwrapKey'''. 7 Cannot be revealed if object has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE or its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE. 8 May be modified after object is created with a '''C_SetAttributeValue''' call, or in the process of copying object with a '''C_CopyObject''' call. However, it is possible that a particular token may not permit modification of the attribute during the course of a '''C_CopyObject''' call. 9 Default value is token-specific, and may depend on the values of other attributes. 10 Can only be set to CK_TRUE by the SO user. 11 Attribute cannot be changed once set to CK_TRUE. It becomes a read only attribute. 12 Attribute cannot be changed once set to CK_FALSE. It becomes a read only attribute. |} '''Table 16, Common Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" !

They provide an easily expandable method for introducing new value-based features to the cryptoki interface. When searching for objects using '''C_FindObjectsInit''' and '''C_FindObjects''', hardware feature objects are not returned unless the '''CKA_CLASS''' attribute in the template has the value '''CKO_HW_FEATURE'''. This protects applications written to previous versions of cryptoki from finding objects that they do not understand. '''Table 17, Hardware Feature Common Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Attribute''' | '''Data Type''' | '''Meaning''' |- | CKA_HW_FEATURE_TYPE1 | CK_HW_FEATURE | Hardware feature (type) |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes === Clock === ==== Definition ==== The''' CKA_HW_FEATURE_TYPE '''attribute takes the value''' CKH_CLOCK''' of type '''CK_HW_FEATURE.''' ==== Description ==== Clock objects represent real-time clocks that exist on the device. This represents the same clock source as the '''utcTime''' field in the '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' structure. '''Table 18, Clock Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Attribute''' | '''Data Type''' | '''Meaning''' |- | CKA_VALUE | CK_CHAR[16] | Current time as a character-string of length 16, represented in the format YYYYMMDDhhmmssxx (4 characters for the year; 2 characters each for the month, the day, the hour, the minute, and the second; and 2 additional reserved ‘0’ characters). |} The '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute may be set using the '''C_SetAttributeValue''' function if permitted by the device. The session used to set the time must be logged in. The device may require the SO to be the user logged in to modify the time value. '''C_SetAttributeValue''' will return the error CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN to indicate that a different user type is required to set the value. === Monotonic Counter Objects === ==== Definition ==== The''' CKA_HW_FEATURE_TYPE '''attribute takes the value''' CKH_MONOTONIC_COUNTER''' of type '''CK_HW_FEATURE.''' ==== Description ==== Monotonic counter objects represent hardware counters that exist on the device. The counter is guaranteed to increase each time its value is read, but not necessarily by one. This might be used by an application for generating serial numbers to get some assurance of uniqueness per token. '''Table 19, Monotonic Counter Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Attribute''' | '''Data Type''' | '''Meaning''' |- | CKA_RESET_ON_INIT1 | CK_BBOOL | The value of the counter will reset to a previously returned value if the token is initialized using '''C_InitToken'''. |- | CKA_HAS_RESET1 | CK_BBOOL | The value of the counter has been reset at least once at some point in time. |- | CKA_VALUE1 | Byte Array | The current version of the monotonic counter. The value is returned in big endian order. |} 1Read Only The '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute may not be set by the client. === User Interface Objects === ==== Definition ==== The''' CKA_HW_FEATURE_TYPE '''attribute takes the value''' CKH_USER_INTERFACE''' of type '''CK_HW_FEATURE.''' ==== Description ==== User interface objects represent the presentation capabilities of the device. '''Table 20, User Interface Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- ! CKA_PIXEL_X ! CK_ULONG ! Screen resolution (in pixels) in X-axis (e.g. 1280) |- ! CKA_PIXEL_Y ! CK_ULONG ! Screen resolution (in pixels) in Y-axis (e.g. 1024) |- ! CKA_RESOLUTION ! CK_ULONG ! DPI, pixels per inch |- ! CKA_CHAR_ROWS ! CK_ULONG ! For character-oriented displays; number of character rows (e.g. 24) |- ! CKA_CHAR_COLUMNS ! CK_ULONG ! For character-oriented displays: number of character columns (e.g. 80). If display is of proportional-font type, this is the width of the display in “em”-s (letter “M”), see CC/PP Struct. |- ! CKA_COLOR ! CK_BBOOL ! Color support |- ! CKA_BITS_PER_PIXEL ! CK_ULONG ! The number of bits of color or grayscale information per pixel. |- ! CKA_CHAR_SETS ! RFC 2279 string ! String indicating supported character sets, as defined by IANA MIBenum sets ([http://www.iana.org/ www.iana.org]). Supported character sets are separated with “;”. E.g. a token supporting iso-8859-1 and us-ascii would set the attribute value to “4;3”. |- | CKA_ENCODING_METHODS | RFC 2279 string | String indicating supported content transfer encoding methods, as defined by IANA ([http://www.iana.org/ www.iana.org]). Supported methods are separated with “;”. E.g. a token supporting 7bit, 8bit and base64 could set the attribute value to “7bit;8bit;base64”. |- | CKA_MIME_TYPES | RFC 2279 string | String indicating supported (presentable) MIME-types, as defined by IANA ([http://www.iana.org/ www.iana.org]). Supported types are separated with “;”. E.g. a token supporting MIME types "a/b", "a/c" and "a/d" would set the attribute value to “a/b;a/c;a/d”. |} The selection of attributes, and associated data types, has been done in an attempt to stay as aligned with RFC 2534 and CC/PP Struct as possible. The special value CK_UNAVAILABLE_INFORMATION may be used for CK_ULONG-based attributes when information is not available or applicable. None of the attribute values may be set by an application. The value of the '''CKA_ENCODING_METHODS''' attribute may be used when the application needs to send MIME objects with encoded content to the token. == Storage Objects == This is not an object class, hence no CKO_ definition is required. It is a category of object classes with common attributes for the object classes that follow. '''Table 21, Common Storage Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data Type ! Meaning |- | CKA_TOKEN | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if object is a token object; CK_FALSE if object is a session object. Default is CK_FALSE. |- | CKA_PRIVATE | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if object is a private object; CK_FALSE if object is a public object. Default value is token-specific, and may depend on the values of other attributes of the object. |- | CKA_MODIFIABLE | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if object can be modified Default is CK_TRUE. |- | CKA_LABEL | RFC2279 string | Description of the object (default empty). |- | CKA_COPYABLE | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if object can be copied using C_CopyObject. Defaults to CK_TRUE. Can’t be set to TRUE once it is set to FALSE. |} Only the '''CKA_LABEL''' attribute can be modified after the object is created. (The '''CKA_TOKEN''', '''CKA_PRIVATE''', and '''CKA_MODIFIABLE''' attributes can be changed in the process of copying an object, however.) The '''CKA_TOKEN''' attribute identifies whether the object is a token object or a session object. When the '''CKA_PRIVATE''' attribute is CK_TRUE, a user may not access the object until the user has been authenticated to the token. The value of the '''CKA_MODIFIABLE''' attribute determines whether or not an object is read-only. It may or may not be the case that an unmodifiable object can be deleted. The '''CKA_LABEL''' attribute is intended to assist users in browsing. The value of the CKA_COPYABLE attribute determines whether or not an object can be copied. This attribute can be used in conjunction with CKA_MODIFIABLE to prevent changes to the permitted usages of keys and other objects. == Data objects == === Definitions === This section defines the object class CKO_DATA for type CK_OBJECT_CLASS as used in the CKA_CLASS attribute of objects. === Overview === Data objects (object class '''CKO_DATA''') hold information defined by an application. Other than providing access to it, Cryptoki does not attach any special meaning to a data object. The following table lists the attributes supported by data objects, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 22, Data Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_APPLICATION | RFC2279 string | Description of the application that manages the object (default empty) |- | CKA_OBJECT_ID | Byte Array | DER-encoding of the object identifier indicating the data object type (default empty) |- | CKA_VALUE | Byte array | Value of the object (default empty) |} The '''CKA_APPLICATION''' attribute provides a means for applications to indicate ownership of the data objects they manage. Cryptoki does not provide a means of ensuring that only a particular application has access to a data object, however. The '''CKA_OBJECT_ID''' attribute provides an application independent and expandable way to indicate the type of the data object value. Cryptoki does not provide a means of insuring that the data object identifier matches the data value. The following is a sample template containing attributes for creating a data object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_DATA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A data object”; CK_UTF8CHAR application[] = “An application”; CK_BYTE data[] = “Sample data”; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_APPLICATION, application, sizeof(application)-1}, {CKA_VALUE, data, sizeof(data)} }; == Certificate objects == === Definitions === This section defines the object class CKO_CERTIFICATE for type CK_OBJECT_CLASS as used in the CKA_CLASS attribute of objects. === Overview === Certificate objects (object class '''CKO_CERTIFICATE''') hold public-key or attribute certificates. Other than providing access to certificate objects, Cryptoki does not attach any special meaning to certificates. The following table defines the common certificate object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 23, Common Certificate Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_CERTIFICATE_TYPE1 | CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE | Type of certificate |- | CKA_TRUSTED10 | CK_BBOOL | The certificate can be trusted for the application that it was created. |- | CKA_CERTIFICATE_CATEGORY | CK_ULONG | Categorization of the certificate:0 = unspecified (default value), 1 = token user, 2 = authority, 3 = other entity |- | CKA_CHECK_VALUE | Byte array | Checksum |- | CKA_START_DATE | CK_DATE | Start date for the certificate (default empty) |- | CKA_END_DATE | CK_DATE | End date for the certificate (default empty) |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_CERTIFICATE_TYPE''' attribute may not be modified after an object is created. This version of Cryptoki supports the following certificate types: * X.509 public key certificate * WTLS public key certificate * X.509 attribute certificate The '''CKA_TRUSTED''' attribute cannot be set to CK_TRUE by an application. It must be set by a token initialization application or by the token’s SO. Trusted certificates cannot be modified. The '''CKA_CERTIFICATE_CATEGORY''' attribute is used to indicate if a stored certificate is a user certificate for which the corresponding private key is available on the token (“token user”), a CA certificate (“authority”), or an other end-entity certificate (“other entity”). This attribute may not be modified after an object is created. The '''CKA_CERTIFICATE_CATEGORY''' and '''CKA_TRUSTED''' attributes will together be used to map to the categorization of the certificates. A certificate in the certificates CDF will be marked with category “token user”. A certificate in the trustedCertificates CDF or in the usefulCertificates CDF will be marked with category “authority” or “other entity” depending on the CommonCertificateAttribute.authority attribute and the '''CKA_TRUSTED''' attribute indicates if it belongs to the trustedCertificates or usefulCertificates CDF. '''CKA_CHECK_VALUE''': The value of this attribute is derived from the certificate by taking the first three bytes of the SHA-1 hash of the certificate object’s CKA_VALUE attribute. The '''CKA_START_DATE''' and '''CKA_END_DATE''' attributes are for reference only; Cryptoki does not attach any special meaning to them. When present, the application is responsible to set them to values that match the certificate’s encoded “not before” and “not after” fields (if any). === X.509 public key certificate objects === X.509 certificate objects (certificate type '''CKC_X_509''') hold X.509 public key certificates. The following table defines the X.509 certificate object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 24, X.509 Certificate Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_SUBJECT1 | Byte array | DER-encoding of the certificate subject name |- | CKA_ID | Byte array | Key identifier for public/private key pair (default empty) |- | CKA_ISSUER | Byte array | DER-encoding of the certificate issuer name (default empty) |- | CKA_SERIAL_NUMBER | Byte array | DER-encoding of the certificate serial number (default empty) |- | CKA_VALUE2 | Byte array | BER-encoding of the certificate |- | CKA_URL3 | RFC2279 string | If not empty this attribute gives the URL where the complete certificate can be obtained (default empty) |- | CKA_HASH_OF_SUBJECT_PUBLIC_KEY4 | Byte array | Hash of the subject public key (default empty). Hash algorithm is defined by CKA_NAME_HASH_ALGORITHM |- | CKA_HASH_OF_ISSUER_PUBLIC_KEY4 | Byte array | Hash of the issuer public key (default empty). Hash algorithm is defined by CKA_NAME_HASH_ALGORITHM |- | CKA_JAVA_MIDP_SECURITY_DOMAIN | CK_ULONG | Java MIDP security domain: 0 = unspecified (default value), 1 = manufacturer, 2 = operator, 3 = third party |- | CKA_NAME_HASH_ALGORITHM | CK_MECHANISM_TYPE | Defines the mechanism used to calculate CKA_HASH_OF_SUBJECT_PUBLIC_KEY and CKA_HASH_OF_ISSUER_PUBLIC_KEY. If the attribute is not present then the type defaults to SHA-1. |} 1Must be specified when the object is created.2Must be specified when the object is created. Must be non-empty if CKA_URL is empty. 3Must be non-empty if CKA_VALUE is empty. 4Can only be empty if CKA_URL is empty. Only the '''CKA_ID''', '''CKA_ISSUER''', and '''CKA_SERIAL_NUMBER''' attributes may be modified after the object is created. The '''CKA_ID''' attribute is intended as a means of distinguishing multiple public-key/private-key pairs held by the same subject (whether stored in the same token or not). (Since the keys are distinguished by subject name as well as identifier, it is possible that keys for different subjects may have the same '''CKA_ID''' value without introducing any ambiguity.) It is intended in the interests of interoperability that the subject name and key identifier for a certificate will be the same as those for the corresponding public and private keys (though it is not required that all be stored in the same token). However, Cryptoki does not enforce this association, or even the uniqueness of the key identifier for a given subject; in particular, an application may leave the key identifier empty. The '''CKA_ISSUER''' and '''CKA_SERIAL_NUMBER''' attributes are for compatibility with PKCS #7 and Privacy Enhanced Mail (RFC1421). Note that with the version 3 extensions to X.509 certificates, the key identifier may be carried in the certificate. It is intended that the '''CKA_ID''' value be identical to the key identifier in such a certificate extension, although this will not be enforced by Cryptoki. The '''CKA_URL''' attribute enables the support for storage of the URL where the certificate can be found instead of the certificate itself. Storage of a URL instead of the complete certificate is often used in mobile environments. The '''CKA_HASH_OF_SUBJECT_PUBLIC_KEY''' and '''CKA_HASH_OF_ISSUER_PUBLIC_KEY''' attributes are used to store the hashes of the public keys of the subject and the issuer. They are particularly important when only the URL is available to be able to correlate a certificate with a private key and when searching for the certificate of the issuer. The hash algorithm is defined by CKA_NAME_HASH_ALGORITHM. The '''CKA_JAVA_MIDP_SECURITY_DOMAIN''' attribute associates a certificate with a Java MIDP security domain. The following is a sample template for creating an X.509 certificate object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_CERTIFICATE; CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE certType = CKC_X_509; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A certificate object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE id[] = {123}; CK_BYTE certificate[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_CERTIFICATE_TYPE, &certType, sizeof(certType)}; {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_ID, id, sizeof(id)}, {CKA_VALUE, certificate, sizeof(certificate)} }; === WTLS public key certificate objects === WTLS certificate objects (certificate type '''CKC_WTLS''') hold WTLS public key certificates. The following table defines the WTLS certificate object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class. '''Table 25: WTLS Certificate Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_SUBJECT1 | Byte array | WTLS-encoding (Identifier type) of the certificate subject |- | CKA_ISSUER | Byte array | WTLS-encoding (Identifier type) of the certificate issuer (default empty) |- | CKA_VALUE2 | Byte array | WTLS-encoding of the certificate |- | CKA_URL3 | RFC2279 string | If not empty this attribute gives the URL where the complete certificate can be obtained |- | CKA_HASH_OF_SUBJECT_PUBLIC_KEY4 | Byte array | SHA-1 hash of the subject public key (default empty).

Can only be empty if CKA_VALUE is empty. 2Must be specified when the object is created. Must be non-empty if CKA_URL is empty. 3Must be non-empty if CKA_VALUE is empty. 4Can only be empty if CKA_URL is empty. Only the '''CKA_ISSUER''' attribute may be modified after the object has been created. The encoding for the '''CKA_SUBJECT''', '''CKA_ISSUER''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes can be found in [WTLS] (see [#_References References]). The '''CKA_URL''' attribute enables the support for storage of the URL where the certificate can be found instead of the certificate itself. Storage of a URL instead of the complete certificate is often used in mobile environments. The '''CKA_HASH_OF_SUBJECT_PUBLIC_KEY''' and '''CKA_HASH_OF_ISSUER_PUBLIC_KEY''' attributes are used to store the hashes of the public keys of the subject and the issuer. They are particularly important when only the URL is available to be able to correlate a certificate with a private key and when searching for the certificate of the issuer. The hash algorithm is defined by CKA_NAME_HASH_ALGORITHM. The following is a sample template for creating a WTLS certificate object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_CERTIFICATE; CK_CERTIFICATE_TYPE certType = CKC_WTLS; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A certificate object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE certificate[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_CERTIFICATE_TYPE, &certType, sizeof(certType)}; {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_VALUE, certificate, sizeof(certificate)} }; === X.509 attribute certificate objects === X.509 attribute certificate objects (certificate type '''CKC_X_509_ATTR_CERT''') hold X.509 attribute certificates. The following table defines the X.509 attribute certificate object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 26, X.509 Attribute Certificate Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Attribute''' |

This section defines the object class CKO_PUBLIC_KEY, CKO_PRIVATE_KEY and CKO_SECRET_KEY for type CK_OBJECT_CLASS as used in the CKA_CLASS attribute of objects. === Overview === Key objects hold encryption or authentication keys, which can be public keys, private keys, or secret keys. The following common footnotes apply to all the tables describing attributes of keys: The following table defines the attributes common to public key, private key and secret key classes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 27, Common Key Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data Type ! Meaning |- | CKA_KEY_TYPE1,5 | CK_KEY_TYPE | Type of key |- | CKA_ID8 | Byte array | Key identifier for key (default empty) |- | CKA_START_DATE8 | CK_DATE | Start date for the key (default empty) |- | CKA_END_DATE8 | CK_DATE | End date for the key (default empty) |- | CKA_DERIVE8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports key derivation (''i.e.'', if other keys can be derived from this one (default CK_FALSE) |- | CKA_LOCAL2,4,6 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE only if key was either * generated locally (''i.e.'', on the token) with a '''C_GenerateKey''' or '''C_GenerateKeyPair''' call * created with a '''C_CopyObject''' call as a copy of a key which had its '''CKA_LOCAL''' attribute set to CK_TRUE |- | CKA_KEY_GEN_MECHANISM2,4,6 | CK_MECHANISM_TYPE | Identifier of the mechanism used to generate the key material. |- | CKA_ALLOWED_MECHANISMS | CK_MECHANISM_TYPE _PTR, pointer to a CK_MECHANISM_TYPE array | A list of mechanisms allowed to be used with this key. The number of mechanisms in the array is the ''ulValueLen'' component of the attribute divided by the size of CK_MECHANISM_TYPE. |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_ID''' field is intended to distinguish among multiple keys. In the case of public and private keys, this field assists in handling multiple keys held by the same subject; the key identifier for a public key and its corresponding private key should be the same. The key identifier should also be the same as for the corresponding certificate, if one exists. Cryptoki does not enforce these associations, however. (See Section 10.6 for further commentary.) In the case of secret keys, the meaning of the '''CKA_ID''' attribute is up to the application. Note that the '''CKA_START_DATE''' and '''CKA_END_DATE''' attributes are for reference only; Cryptoki does not attach any special meaning to them. In particular, it does not restrict usage of a key according to the dates; doing this is up to the application. The '''CKA_DERIVE''' attribute has the value CK_TRUE if and only if it is possible to derive other keys from the key. The '''CKA_LOCAL''' attribute has the value CK_TRUE if and only if the value of the key was originally generated on the token by a '''C_GenerateKey''' or '''C_GenerateKeyPair''' call. The '''CKA_KEY_GEN_MECHANISM''' attribute identifies the key generation mechanism used to generate the key material. It contains a valid value only if the '''CKA_LOCAL''' attribute has the value CK_TRUE. If '''CKA_LOCAL''' has the value CK_FALSE, the value of the attribute is CK_UNAVAILABLE_INFORMATION. == Public key objects == Public key objects (object class '''CKO_PUBLIC_KEY''') hold public keys. The following table defines the attributes common to all public keys, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 28, Common Public Key Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" !

However, Cryptoki does not enforce this, and it is not required that the certificate and private key also be stored on the token. To map between ISO/IEC 9594-8 (X.509) '''keyUsage '''flags for public keys and the PKCS #11 attributes for public keys, use the following table.

Default is CK_FALSE. |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes It is intended in the interests of interoperability that the subject name and key identifier for a private key will be the same as those for the corresponding certificate and public key. However, this is not enforced by Cryptoki, and it is not required that the certificate and public key also be stored on the token. If the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is CK_TRUE, or if the '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is CK_FALSE, then certain attributes of the private key cannot be revealed in plaintext outside the token. Which attributes these are is specified for each type of private key in the attribute table in the section describing that type of key. The '''CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE''' attribute can be used to force re-authentication (i.e. force the user to provide a PIN) for each use of a private key. “Use” in this case means a cryptographic operation such as sign or decrypt. This attribute may only be set to CK_TRUE when '''CKA_PRIVATE''' is also CK_TRUE. Re-authentication occurs by calling '''C_Login''' with ''userType'' set to '''CKU_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC''' immediately after a cryptographic operation using the key has been initiated (e.g. after '''C_SignInit'''). In this call, the actual user type is implicitly given by the usage requirements of the active key. If '''C_Login''' returns CKR_OK the user was successfully authenticated and this sets the active key in an authenticated state that lasts until the cryptographic operation has successfully or unsuccessfully been completed (e.g. by '''C_Sign''', '''C_SignFinal''',..). A return value CKR_PIN_INCORRECT from '''C_Login''' means that the user was denied permission to use the key and continuing the cryptographic operation will result in a behavior as if '''C_Login''' had not been called. In both of these cases the session state will remain the same, however repeated failed re-authentication attempts may cause the PIN to be locked. '''C_Login''' returns in this case CKR_PIN_LOCKED and this also logs the user out from the token. Failing or omitting to re-authenticate when CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE is set to CK_TRUE will result in CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN to be returned from calls using the key. '''C_Login''' will return CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED, but the active cryptographic operation will not be affected, if an attempt is made to re-authenticate when CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE is set to CK_FALSE. == Secret key objects == Secret key objects (object class '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''') hold secret keys. The following table defines the attributes common to all secret keys, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 31, Common Secret Key Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_SENSITIVE8,11 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if object is sensitive (default CK_FALSE) |- | CKA_ENCRYPT8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports encryption9 |- | CKA_DECRYPT8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports decryption9 |- | CKA_SIGN8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports signatures (''i.e.'', authentication codes) where the signature is an appendix to the data9 |- | CKA_VERIFY8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports verification (''i.e.'', of authentication codes) where the signature is an appendix to the data9 |- | CKA_WRAP8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports wrapping (''i.e.'', can be used to wrap other keys)9 |- | CKA_UNWRAP8 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key supports unwrapping (''i.e.'', can be used to unwrap other keys)9 |- | CKA_EXTRACTABLE8,12 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key is extractable and can be wrapped 9 |- | CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE2,4,6 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key has ''always'' had the CKA_SENSITIVE attribute set to CK_TRUE |- | CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE2,4,6 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if key has ''never'' had the CKA_EXTRACTABLE attribute set to CK_TRUE |- | CKA_CHECK_VALUE | Byte array | Key checksum |- | CKA_WRAP_WITH_TRUSTED11 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE if the key can only be wrapped with a wrapping key that has CKA_TRUSTED set to CK_TRUE. Default is CK_FALSE. |- | CKA_TRUSTED10 | CK_BBOOL | The wrapping key can be used to wrap keys with CKA_WRAP_WITH_TRUSTED set to CK_TRUE. |- | CKA_WRAP_TEMPLATE | CK_ATTRIBUTE_PTR | For wrapping keys. The attribute template to match against any keys wrapped using this wrapping key. Keys that do not match cannot be wrapped. The number of attributes in the array is the ''ulValueLen'' component of the attribute divided by the size of CK_ATTRIBUTE |- | CKA_UNWRAP_TEMPLATE | CK_ATTRIBUTE_PTR | For wrapping keys. The attribute template to apply to any keys unwrapped using this wrapping key. Any user supplied template is applied after this template as if the object has already been created. The number of attributes in the array is the ''ulValueLen'' component of the attribute divided by the size of CK_ATTRIBUTE. |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes If the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is CK_TRUE, or if the '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is CK_FALSE, then certain attributes of the secret key cannot be revealed in plaintext outside the token. Which attributes these are is specified for each type of secret key in the attribute table in the section describing that type of key. The key check value (KCV) attribute for symmetric key objects to be called '''CKA_CHECK_VALUE,''' of type byte array, length 3 bytes, operates like a fingerprint, or checksum of the key. They are intended to be used to cross-check symmetric keys against other systems where the same key is shared, and as a validity check after manual key entry or restore from backup. Refer to object definitions of specific key types for KCV algorithms. Properties: # For two keys that are cryptographically identical the value of this attribute should be identical. # CKA_CHECK_VALUE should not be usable to obtain any part of the key value. # Non-uniqueness. Two different keys can have the same CKA_CHECK_VALUE. This is unlikely (the probability can easily be calculated) but possible. The attribute is optional but if supported the value of the attribute is always supplied by the library regardless of how the key object is created or derived. It shall be supplied even if the encryption operation for the key is forbidden (i.e. when CKA_ENCRYPT is set to CK_FALSE). If a value is supplied in the application template (allowed but never necessary) then, if supported, it must match what the library calculates it to be or the library returns a CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID. If the library does not support the attribute then it should ignore it. Allowing the attribute in the template this way does no harm and allows the attribute to be treated like any other attribute for the purposes of key wrap and unwrap where the attributes are preserved also. The generation of the KCV may be prevented by the application supplying the attribute in the template as a no-value (0 length) entry. The application can query the value at any time like any other attribute using C_GetAttributeValue. C_SetAttributeValue may be used to destroy the attribute, by supplying no-value. Unless otherwise specified for the object definition, the value of this attribute is derived from the key object by taking the first three bytes of an encryption of a single block of null (0x00) bytes, using the default cipher and mode (e.g. ECB) associated with the key type of the secret key object. == Domain parameter objects == === Definitions === This section defines the object class CKO_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS for type CK_OBJECT_CLASS as used in the CKA_CLASS attribute of objects. === Overview === This object class was created to support the storage of certain algorithm's extended parameters. DSA and DH both use domain parameters in the key-pair generation step. In particular, some libraries support the generation of domain parameters (originally out of scope for PKCS11) so the object class was added. To use a domain parameter object you must extract the attributes into a template and supply them (still in the template) to the corresponding key-pair generation function. Domain parameter objects (object class '''CKO_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS''') hold public domain parameters. The following table defines the attributes common to domain parameter objects in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 32, Common Domain Parameter Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data Type ! Meaning |- | CKA_KEY_TYPE1 | CK_KEY_TYPE | Type of key the domain parameters can be used to generate. |- | CKA_LOCAL2,4 | CK_BBOOL | CK_TRUE only if domain parameters were either * generated locally (''i.e.'', on the token) with a '''C_GenerateKey''' * created with a '''C_CopyObject''' call as a copy of domain parameters which had its '''CKA_LOCAL''' attribute set to CK_TRUE |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_LOCAL''' attribute has the value CK_TRUE if and only if the value of the domain parameters were originally generated on the token by a '''C_GenerateKey''' call. == Mechanism objects == === Definitions === This section defines the object class CKO_MECHANISM for type CK_OBJECT_CLASS as used in the CKA_CLASS attribute of objects. === Overview === Mechanism objects provide information about mechanisms supported by a device beyond that given by the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure. When searching for objects using '''C_FindObjectsInit''' and '''C_FindObjects''', mechanism objects are not returned unless the '''CKA_CLASS''' attribute in the template has the value '''CKO_MECHANISM'''. This protects applications written to previous versions of cryptoki from finding objects that they do not understand. '''Table 33, Common Mechanism Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Attribute''' | '''Data Type''' | '''Meaning''' |- | CKA_MECHANISM_TYPE | CK_MECHANISM_TYPE | The type of mechanism object |} The '''CKA_MECHANISM_TYPE''' attribute may not be set. = Functions = Cryptoki's functions are organized into the following categories: * general-purpose functions (4 functions) * slot and token management functions (9 functions) * session management functions (8 functions) * object management functions (9 functions) * encryption functions (4 functions) * decryption functions (4 functions) * message digesting functions (5 functions) * signing and MACing functions (6 functions) * functions for verifying signatures and MACs (6 functions) * dual-purpose cryptographic functions (4 functions) * key management functions (5 functions) * random number generation functions (2 functions) * parallel function management functions (2 functions) In addition to these functions, Cryptoki can use application-supplied callback functions to notify an application of certain events, and can also use application-supplied functions to handle mutex objects for safe multi-threaded library access. Execution of a Cryptoki function call is in general an all-or-nothing affair, ''i.e.'', a function call accomplishes either its entire goal, or nothing at all. * If a Cryptoki function executes successfully, it returns the value CKR_OK. * If a Cryptoki function does not execute successfully, it returns some value other than CKR_OK, and the token is in the same state as it was in prior to the function call. If the function call was supposed to modify the contents of certain memory addresses on the host computer, these memory addresses may have been modified, despite the failure of the function. * In unusual (and extremely unpleasant!) circumstances, a function can fail with the return value CKR_GENERAL_ERROR. When this happens, the token and/or host computer may be in an inconsistent state, and the goals of the function may have been partially achieved. There are a small number of Cryptoki functions whose return values do not behave precisely as described above; these exceptions are documented individually with the description of the functions themselves. A Cryptoki library need not support every function in the Cryptoki API. However, even an unsupported function must have a “stub” in the library which simply returns the value CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED. The function’s entry in the library’s '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure (as obtained by '''C_GetFunctionList''') should point to this stub function (see Section 9.6). == Function return values == The Cryptoki interface possesses a large number of functions and return values. In Section 11.1, we enumerate the various possible return values for Cryptoki functions; most of the remainder of Section 10.12 details the behavior of Cryptoki functions, including what values each of them may return. Because of the complexity of the Cryptoki specification, it is recommended that Cryptoki applications attempt to give some leeway when interpreting Cryptoki functions’ return values. We have attempted to specify the behavior of Cryptoki functions as completely as was feasible; nevertheless, there are presumably some gaps. For example, it is possible that a particular error code which might apply to a particular Cryptoki function is unfortunately not actually listed in the description of that function as a possible error code. It is conceivable that the developer of a Cryptoki library might nevertheless permit his/her implementation of that function to return that error code. It would clearly be somewhat ungraceful if a Cryptoki application using that library were to terminate by abruptly dumping core upon receiving that error code for that function. It would be far preferable for the application to examine the function’s return value, see that it indicates some sort of error (even if the application doesn’t know precisely ''what'' kind of error), and behave accordingly. See Section 11.1.8 for some specific details on how a developer might attempt to make an application that accommodates a range of behaviors from Cryptoki libraries. === Universal Cryptoki function return values === Any Cryptoki function can return any of the following values: * CKR_GENERAL_ERROR: Some horrible, unrecoverable error has occurred. In the worst case, it is possible that the function only partially succeeded, and that the computer and/or token is in an inconsistent state. * CKR_HOST_MEMORY: The computer that the Cryptoki library is running on has insufficient memory to perform the requested function. * CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED: The requested function could not be performed, but detailed information about why not is not available in this error return. If the failed function uses a session, it is possible that the '''CK_SESSION_INFO''' structure that can be obtained by calling '''C_GetSessionInfo''' will hold useful information about what happened in its ''ulDeviceError'' field. In any event, although the function call failed, the situation is not necessarily totally hopeless, as it is likely to be when CKR_GENERAL_ERROR is returned. Depending on what the root cause of the error actually was, it is possible that an attempt to make the exact same function call again would succeed. * CKR_OK: The function executed successfully. Technically, CKR_OK is not ''quite'' a “universal” return value; in particular, the legacy functions '''C_GetFunctionStatus''' and '''C_CancelFunction''' (see Section 11.16) cannot return CKR_OK. The relative priorities of these errors are in the order listed above, ''e.g.'', if either of CKR_GENERAL_ERROR or CKR_HOST_MEMORY would be an appropriate error return, then CKR_GENERAL_ERROR should be returned. === Cryptoki function return values for functions that use a session handle === Any Cryptoki function that takes a session handle as one of its arguments (''i.e.'', any Cryptoki function except for '''C_Initialize''', '''C_Finalize''', '''C_GetInfo''', '''C_GetFunctionList''', '''C_GetSlotList''', '''C_GetSlotInfo''', '''C_GetTokenInfo''', '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''', '''C_GetMechanismList''', '''C_GetMechanismInfo''', '''C_InitToken''', '''C_OpenSession''', and '''C_CloseAllSessions''') can return the following values: * CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID: The specified session handle was invalid ''at the time that the function was invoked''. Note that this can happen if the session’s token is removed before the function invocation, since removing a token closes all sessions with it. * CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED: The token was removed from its slot ''during the execution of the function''. * CKR_SESSION_CLOSED: The session was closed ''during the execution of the function''. Note that, as stated in Section 6.7.6, the behavior of Cryptoki is ''undefined'' if multiple threads of an application attempt to access a common Cryptoki session simultaneously. Therefore, there is actually no guarantee that a function invocation could ever return the value CKR_SESSION_CLOSED—if one thread is using a session when another thread closes that session, that is an instance of multiple threads accessing a common session simultaneously. The relative priorities of these errors are in the order listed above, ''e.g.'', if either of CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID or CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED would be an appropriate error return, then CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID should be returned. In practice, it is often not crucial (or possible) for a Cryptoki library to be able to make a distinction between a token being removed ''before'' a function invocation and a token being removed ''during'' a function execution. === Cryptoki function return values for functions that use a token === Any Cryptoki function that uses a particular token (''i.e.'', any Cryptoki function except for '''C_Initialize''', '''C_Finalize''', '''C_GetInfo''', '''C_GetFunctionList''', '''C_GetSlotList''', '''C_GetSlotInfo''', or''' C_WaitForSlotEvent''') can return any of the following values: * CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY: The token does not have sufficient memory to perform the requested function. * CKR_DEVICE_ERROR: Some problem has occurred with the token and/or slot. This error code can be returned by more than just the functions mentioned above; in particular, it is possible for '''C_GetSlotInfo''' to return CKR_DEVICE_ERROR. * CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT: The token was not present in its slot ''at the time that the function was invoked''. * CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED: The token was removed from its slot ''during the execution of the function''. The relative priorities of these errors are in the order listed above, ''e.g.'', if either of CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY or CKR_DEVICE_ERROR would be an appropriate error return, then CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY should be returned. In practice, it is often not critical (or possible) for a Cryptoki library to be able to make a distinction between a token being removed ''before'' a function invocation and a token being removed ''during'' a function execution. === Special return value for application-supplied callbacks === There is a special-purpose return value which is not returned by any function in the actual Cryptoki API, but which may be returned by an application-supplied callback function. It is: * CKR_CANCEL: When a function executing in serial with an application decides to give the application a chance to do some work, it calls an application-supplied function with a CKN_SURRENDER callback (see Section 11.17). If the callback returns the value CKR_CANCEL, then the function aborts and returns CKR_FUNCTION_CANCELED. === Special return values for mutex-handling functions === There are two other special-purpose return values which are not returned by any actual Cryptoki functions. These values may be returned by application-supplied mutex-handling functions, and they may safely be ignored by application developers who are not using their own threading model. They are: * CKR_MUTEX_BAD: This error code can be returned by mutex-handling functions who are passed a bad mutex object as an argument. Unfortunately, it is possible for such a function not to recognize a bad mutex object. There is therefore no guarantee that such a function will successfully detect bad mutex objects and return this value. * CKR_MUTEX_NOT_LOCKED: This error code can be returned by mutex-unlocking functions. It indicates that the mutex supplied to the mutex-unlocking function was not locked. === All other Cryptoki function return values === Descriptions of the other Cryptoki function return values follow. Except as mentioned in the descriptions of particular error codes, there are in general no particular priorities among the errors listed below, ''i.e.'', if more than one error code might apply to an execution of a function, then the function may return any applicable error code. * CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD: This is a rather generic error code which indicates that the arguments supplied to the Cryptoki function were in some way not appropriate. * CKR_ATTRIBUTE_READ_ONLY: An attempt was made to set a value for an attribute which may not be set by the application, or which may not be modified by the application. See Section 10.1 for more information. * CKR_ATTRIBUTE_SENSITIVE: An attempt was made to obtain the value of an attribute of an object which cannot be satisfied because the object is either sensitive or unextractable. * CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID: An invalid attribute type was specified in a template. See Section 10.1 for more information. * CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID: An invalid value was specified for a particular attribute in a template. See Section 10.1 for more information. * CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL: The output of the function is too large to fit in the supplied buffer. * CKR_CANT_LOCK: This value can only be returned by '''C_Initialize'''. It means that the type of locking requested by the application for thread-safety is not available in this library, and so the application cannot make use of this library in the specified fashion. * CKR_CRYPTOKI_ALREADY_INITIALIZED: This value can only be returned by '''C_Initialize'''. It means that the Cryptoki library has already been initialized (by a previous call to '''C_Initialize''' which did not have a matching '''C_Finalize''' call). * CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED: This value can be returned by any function other than '''C_Initialize''' and '''C_GetFunctionList'''. It indicates that the function cannot be executed because the Cryptoki library has not yet been initialized by a call to '''C_Initialize'''. * CKR_DATA_INVALID: The plaintext input data to a cryptographic operation is invalid. This return value has lower priority than CKR_DATA_LEN_RANGE. * CKR_DATA_LEN_RANGE: The plaintext input data to a cryptographic operation has a bad length. Depending on the operation’s mechanism, this could mean that the plaintext data is too short, too long, or is not a multiple of some particular blocksize. This return value has higher priority than CKR_DATA_INVALID. * CKR_DOMAIN_PARAMS_INVALID: Invalid or unsupported domain parameters were supplied to the function. Which representation methods of domain parameters are supported by a given mechanism can vary from token to token. * CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_INVALID: The encrypted input to a decryption operation has been determined to be invalid ciphertext. This return value has lower priority than CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_LEN_RANGE. * CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_LEN_RANGE: The ciphertext input to a decryption operation has been determined to be invalid ciphertext solely on the basis of its length. Depending on the operation’s mechanism, this could mean that the ciphertext is too short, too long, or is not a multiple of some particular blocksize. This return value has higher priority than CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_INVALID. * CKR_EXCEEDED_MAX_ITERATIONS: An iterative algorithm (for key pair generation, domain parameter generation etc.) failed because we have exceeded the maximum number of iterations. This error code has precedence over CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED. Examples of iterative algorithms include DSA signature generation (retry if either r = 0 or s = 0) and generation of DSA primes p and q specified in FIPS 186-2. * CKR_FIPS_SELF_TEST_FAILED: A FIPS 140-2 power-up self-test or conditional self-test failed. The token entered an error state. Future calls to cryptographic functions on the token will return CKR_GENERAL_ERROR. CKR_FIPS_SELF_TEST_FAILED has a higher precedence over CKR_GENERAL_ERROR. This error may be returned by C_Initialize, if a power-up self-test failed, by C_GenerateRandom or C_SeedRandom, if the continuous random number generator test failed, or by C_GenerateKeyPair, if the pair-wise consistency test failed. * CKR_FUNCTION_CANCELED: The function was canceled in mid-execution. This happens to a cryptographic function if the function makes a '''CKN_SURRENDER''' application callback which returns CKR_CANCEL (see CKR_CANCEL). It also happens to a function that performs PIN entry through a protected path. The method used to cancel a protected path PIN entry operation is device dependent. * CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_PARALLEL: There is currently no function executing in parallel in the specified session. This is a legacy error code which is only returned by the legacy functions '''C_GetFunctionStatus''' and '''C_CancelFunction'''. * CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED: The requested function is not supported by this Cryptoki library. Even unsupported functions in the Cryptoki API should have a “stub” in the library; this stub should simply return the value CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED. * CKR_FUNCTION_REJECTED: The signature request is rejected by the user. * CKR_INFORMATION_SENSITIVE: The information requested could not be obtained because the token considers it sensitive, and is not able or willing to reveal it. * CKR_KEY_CHANGED: This value is only returned by '''C_SetOperationState'''. It indicates that one of the keys specified is not the same key that was being used in the original saved session. * CKR_KEY_FUNCTION_NOT_PERMITTED: An attempt has been made to use a key for a cryptographic purpose that the key’s attributes are not set to allow it to do. For example, to use a key for performing encryption, that key must have its '''CKA_ENCRYPT''' attribute set to CK_TRUE (the fact that the key must have a '''CKA_ENCRYPT''' attribute implies that the key cannot be a private key). This return value has lower priority than CKR_KEY_TYPE_INCONSISTENT. * CKR_KEY_HANDLE_INVALID: The specified key handle is not valid. It may be the case that the specified handle is a valid handle for an object which is not a key. We reiterate here that 0 is never a valid key handle. * CKR_KEY_INDIGESTIBLE: This error code can only be returned by '''C_DigestKey'''. It indicates that the value of the specified key cannot be digested for some reason (perhaps the key isn’t a secret key, or perhaps the token simply can’t digest this kind of key). * CKR_KEY_NEEDED: This value is only returned by '''C_SetOperationState'''. It indicates that the session state cannot be restored because '''C_SetOperationState''' needs to be supplied with one or more keys that were being used in the original saved session. * CKR_KEY_NOT_NEEDED: An extraneous key was supplied to '''C_SetOperationState'''. For example, an attempt was made to restore a session that had been performing a message digesting operation, and an encryption key was supplied. * CKR_KEY_NOT_WRAPPABLE: Although the specified private or secret key does not have its CKA_EXTRACTABLE attribute set to CK_FALSE, Cryptoki (or the token) is unable to wrap the key as requested (possibly the token can only wrap a given key with certain types of keys, and the wrapping key specified is not one of these types). Compare with CKR_KEY_UNEXTRACTABLE. * CKR_KEY_SIZE_RANGE: Although the requested keyed cryptographic operation could in principle be carried out, this Cryptoki library (or the token) is unable to actually do it because the supplied key‘s size is outside the range of key sizes that it can handle. * CKR_KEY_TYPE_INCONSISTENT: The specified key is not the correct type of key to use with the specified mechanism. This return value has a higher priority than CKR_KEY_FUNCTION_NOT_PERMITTED. * CKR_KEY_UNEXTRACTABLE: The specified private or secret key can’t be wrapped because its CKA_EXTRACTABLE attribute is set to CK_FALSE. Compare with CKR_KEY_NOT_WRAPPABLE. * CKR_LIBRARY_LOAD_FAILED: The Cryptoki library could not load a dependent shared library. * CKR_MECHANISM_INVALID: An invalid mechanism was specified to the cryptographic operation. This error code is an appropriate return value if an unknown mechanism was specified or if the mechanism specified cannot be used in the selected token with the selected function. * CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID: Invalid parameters were supplied to the mechanism specified to the cryptographic operation. Which parameter values are supported by a given mechanism can vary from token to token. * CKR_NEED_TO_CREATE_THREADS: This value can only be returned by '''C_Initialize'''. It is returned when two conditions hold: # The application called '''C_Initialize''' in a way which tells the Cryptoki library that application threads executing calls to the library cannot use native operating system methods to spawn new threads. # The library cannot function properly without being able to spawn new threads in the above fashion. * CKR_NO_EVENT: This value can only be returned by '''C_GetSlotEvent'''. It is returned when '''C_GetSlotEvent''' is called in non-blocking mode and there are no new slot events to return. * CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID: The specified object handle is not valid. We reiterate here that 0 is never a valid object handle. * CKR_OPERATION_ACTIVE: There is already an active operation (or combination of active operations) which prevents Cryptoki from activating the specified operation. For example, an active object-searching operation would prevent Cryptoki from activating an encryption operation with '''C_EncryptInit'''. Or, an active digesting operation and an active encryption operation would prevent Cryptoki from activating a signature operation. Or, on a token which doesn’t support simultaneous dual cryptographic operations in a session (see the description of the '''CKF_DUAL_CRYPTO_OPERATIONS''' flag in the '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' structure), an active signature operation would prevent Cryptoki from activating an encryption operation. * CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED: There is no active operation of an appropriate type in the specified session. For example, an application cannot call '''C_Encrypt''' in a session without having called '''C_EncryptInit''' first to activate an encryption operation. * CKR_PIN_EXPIRED: The specified PIN has expired, and the requested operation cannot be carried out unless C_SetPIN is called to change the PIN value. Whether or not the normal user’s PIN on a token ever expires varies from token to token. * CKR_PIN_INCORRECT: The specified PIN is incorrect, ''i.e.'', does not match the PIN stored on the token. More generally-- when authentication to the token involves something other than a PIN-- the attempt to authenticate the user has failed. * CKR_PIN_INVALID: The specified PIN has invalid characters in it. This return code only applies to functions which attempt to set a PIN. * CKR_PIN_LEN_RANGE: The specified PIN is too long or too short. This return code only applies to functions which attempt to set a PIN. * CKR_PIN_LOCKED: The specified PIN is “locked”, and cannot be used. That is, because some particular number of failed authentication attempts has been reached, the token is unwilling to permit further attempts at authentication. Depending on the token, the specified PIN may or may not remain locked indefinitely. * CKR_PIN_TOO_WEAK: The specified PIN is too weak so that it could be easy to guess. If the PIN is too short, CKR_PIN_LEN_RANGE should be returned instead. This return code only applies to functions which attempt to set a PIN. * CKR_PUBLIC_KEY_INVALID: The public key fails a public key validation. For example, an EC public key fails the public key validation specified in Section 5.2.2 of ANSI X9.62. This error code may be returned by C_CreateObject, when the public key is created, or by C_VerifyInit or C_VerifyRecoverInit, when the public key is used. It may also be returned by C_DeriveKey, in preference to CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID, if the other party's public key specified in the mechanism's parameters is invalid. * CKR_RANDOM_NO_RNG: This value can be returned by '''C_SeedRandom''' and '''C_GenerateRandom'''. It indicates that the specified token doesn’t have a random number generator. This return value has higher priority than CKR_RANDOM_SEED_NOT_SUPPORTED. * CKR_RANDOM_SEED_NOT_SUPPORTED: This value can only be returned by '''C_SeedRandom'''. It indicates that the token’s random number generator does not accept seeding from an application. This return value has lower priority than CKR_RANDOM_NO_RNG. * CKR_SAVED_STATE_INVALID: This value can only be returned by '''C_SetOperationState'''. It indicates that the supplied saved cryptographic operations state is invalid, and so it cannot be restored to the specified session. * CKR_SESSION_COUNT: This value can only be returned by '''C_OpenSession'''. It indicates that the attempt to open a session failed, either because the token has too many sessions already open, or because the token has too many read/write sessions already open. * CKR_SESSION_EXISTS: This value can only be returned by '''C_InitToken'''. It indicates that a session with the token is already open, and so the token cannot be initialized. * CKR_SESSION_PARALLEL_NOT_SUPPORTED: The specified token does not support parallel sessions. This is a legacy error code—in Cryptoki Version 2.01 and up, ''no'' token supports parallel sessions. CKR_SESSION_PARALLEL_NOT_SUPPORTED can only be returned by '''C_OpenSession''', and it is only returned when '''C_OpenSession''' is called in a particular [deprecated] way. * CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY: The specified session was unable to accomplish the desired action because it is a read-only session. This return value has lower priority than CKR_TOKEN_WRITE_PROTECTED. * CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY_EXISTS: A read-only session already exists, and so the SO cannot be logged in. * CKR_SESSION_READ_WRITE_SO_EXISTS: A read/write SO session already exists, and so a read-only session cannot be opened. * CKR_SIGNATURE_LEN_RANGE: The provided signature/MAC can be seen to be invalid solely on the basis of its length. This return value has higher priority than CKR_SIGNATURE_INVALID. * CKR_SIGNATURE_INVALID: The provided signature/MAC is invalid. This return value has lower priority than CKR_SIGNATURE_LEN_RANGE. * CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID: The specified slot ID is not valid. * CKR_STATE_UNSAVEABLE: The cryptographic operations state of the specified session cannot be saved for some reason (possibly the token is simply unable to save the current state). This return value has lower priority than CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED. * CKR_TEMPLATE_INCOMPLETE: The template specified for creating an object is incomplete, and lacks some necessary attributes. See Section 10.1 for more information. * CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT: The template specified for creating an object has conflicting attributes. See Section 10.1 for more information. * CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED: The Cryptoki library and/or slot does not recognize the token in the slot. * CKR_TOKEN_WRITE_PROTECTED: The requested action could not be performed because the token is write-protected. This return value has higher priority than CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY. * CKR_UNWRAPPING_KEY_HANDLE_INVALID: This value can only be returned by '''C_UnwrapKey'''. It indicates that the key handle specified to be used to unwrap another key is not valid. * CKR_UNWRAPPING_KEY_SIZE_RANGE: This value can only be returned by '''C_UnwrapKey'''. It indicates that although the requested unwrapping operation could in principle be carried out, this Cryptoki library (or the token) is unable to actually do it because the supplied key’s size is outside the range of key sizes that it can handle. * CKR_UNWRAPPING_KEY_TYPE_INCONSISTENT: This value can only be returned by '''C_UnwrapKey'''. It indicates that the type of the key specified to unwrap another key is not consistent with the mechanism specified for unwrapping. * CKR_USER_ALREADY_LOGGED_IN: This value can only be returned by '''C_Login'''. It indicates that the specified user cannot be logged into the session, because it is already logged into the session. For example, if an application has an open SO session, and it attempts to log the SO into it, it will receive this error code. * CKR_USER_ANOTHER_ALREADY_LOGGED_IN: This value can only be returned by '''C_Login'''. It indicates that the specified user cannot be logged into the session, because another user is already logged into the session. For example, if an application has an open SO session, and it attempts to log the normal user into it, it will receive this error code. * CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN: The desired action cannot be performed because the appropriate user (or ''an'' appropriate user) is not logged in. One example is that a session cannot be logged out unless it is logged in. Another example is that a private object cannot be created on a token unless the session attempting to create it is logged in as the normal user. A final example is that cryptographic operations on certain tokens cannot be performed unless the normal user is logged in. * CKR_USER_PIN_NOT_INITIALIZED: This value can only be returned by '''C_Login'''. It indicates that the normal user’s PIN has not yet been initialized with '''C_InitPIN'''. * CKR_USER_TOO_MANY_TYPES: An attempt was made to have more distinct users simultaneously logged into the token than the token and/or library permits. For example, if some application has an open SO session, and another application attempts to log the normal user into a session, the attempt may return this error. It is not required to, however. Only if the simultaneous distinct users cannot be supported does '''C_Login''' have to return this value. Note that this error code generalizes to true multi-user tokens. * CKR_USER_TYPE_INVALID: An invalid value was specified as a '''CK_USER_TYPE'''. Valid types are '''CKU_SO''', '''CKU_USER''', and '''CKU_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC'''. * CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_INVALID: This value can only be returned by '''C_UnwrapKey'''. It indicates that the provided wrapped key is not valid. If a call is made to '''C_UnwrapKey''' to unwrap a particular type of key (''i.e.'', some particular key type is specified in the template provided to '''C_UnwrapKey'''), and the wrapped key provided to '''C_UnwrapKey''' is recognizably not a wrapped key of the proper type, then '''C_UnwrapKey''' should return CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_INVALID. This return value has lower priority than CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_LEN_RANGE. * CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_LEN_RANGE: This value can only be returned by '''C_UnwrapKey'''. It indicates that the provided wrapped key can be seen to be invalid solely on the basis of its length. This return value has higher priority than CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_INVALID. * CKR_WRAPPING_KEY_HANDLE_INVALID: This value can only be returned by '''C_WrapKey'''. It indicates that the key handle specified to be used to wrap another key is not valid. * CKR_WRAPPING_KEY_SIZE_RANGE: This value can only be returned by '''C_WrapKey'''. It indicates that although the requested wrapping operation could in principle be carried out, this Cryptoki library (or the token) is unable to actually do it because the supplied wrapping key’s size is outside the range of key sizes that it can handle. * CKR_WRAPPING_KEY_TYPE_INCONSISTENT: This value can only be returned by '''C_WrapKey'''. It indicates that the type of the key specified to wrap another key is not consistent with the mechanism specified for wrapping. === More on relative priorities of Cryptoki errors === In general, when a Cryptoki call is made, error codes from Section 11.1.1 (other than CKR_OK) take precedence over error codes from Section 11.1.2, which take precedence over error codes from Section 11.1.3, which take precedence over error codes from Section 11.1.6. One minor implication of this is that functions that use a session handle (''i.e.'', ''most'' functions!) never return the error code CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT (they return CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID instead). Other than these precedences, if more than one error code applies to the result of a Cryptoki call, any of the applicable error codes may be returned. Exceptions to this rule will be explicitly mentioned in the descriptions of functions. === Error code “gotchas” === Here is a short list of a few particular things about return values that Cryptoki developers might want to be aware of: # As mentioned in Sections 11.1.2 and 11.1.3, a Cryptoki library may not be able to make a distinction between a token being removed ''before'' a function invocation and a token being removed ''during'' a function invocation. # As mentioned in Section 11.1.2, an application should never count on getting a CKR_SESSION_CLOSED error. # The difference between CKR_DATA_INVALID and CKR_DATA_LEN_RANGE can be somewhat subtle. Unless an application ''needs'' to be able to distinguish between these return values, it is best to always treat them equivalently. # Similarly, the difference between CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_INVALID and CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_LEN_RANGE, and between CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_INVALID and CKR_WRAPPED_KEY_LEN_RANGE, can be subtle, and it may be best to treat these return values equivalently. # Even with the guidance of Section 10.1, it can be difficult for a Cryptoki library developer to know which of CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID, CKR_TEMPLATE_INCOMPLETE, or CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT to return. When possible, it is recommended that application developers be generous in their interpretations of these error codes. == Conventions for functions returning output in a variable-length buffer == A number of the functions defined in Cryptoki return output produced by some cryptographic mechanism. The amount of output returned by these functions is returned in a variable-length application-supplied buffer. An example of a function of this sort is '''C_Encrypt''', which takes some plaintext as an argument, and outputs a buffer full of ciphertext. These functions have some common calling conventions, which we describe here. Two of the arguments to the function are a pointer to the output buffer (say ''pBuf'') and a pointer to a location which will hold the length of the output produced (say ''pulBufLen''). There are two ways for an application to call such a function: # If ''pBuf'' is NULL_PTR, then all that the function does is return (in *''pulBufLen'') a number of bytes which would suffice to hold the cryptographic output produced from the input to the function. This number may somewhat exceed the precise number of bytes needed, but should not exceed it by a large amount. CKR_OK is returned by the function. # If ''pBuf'' is not NULL_PTR, then *''pulBufLen'' must contain the size in bytes of the buffer pointed to by ''pBuf''. If that buffer is large enough to hold the cryptographic output produced from the input to the function, then that cryptographic output is placed there, and CKR_OK is returned by the function. If the buffer is not large enough, then CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL is returned. In either case, *''pulBufLen'' is set to hold the ''exact'' number of bytes needed to hold the cryptographic output produced from the input to the function. All functions which use the above convention will explicitly say so. Cryptographic functions which return output in a variable-length buffer should always return as much output as can be computed from what has been passed in to them thus far. As an example, consider a session which is performing a multiple-part decryption operation with DES in cipher-block chaining mode with PKCS padding. Suppose that, initially, 8 bytes of ciphertext are passed to the '''C_DecryptUpdate''' function. The blocksize of DES is 8 bytes, but the PKCS padding makes it unclear at this stage whether the ciphertext was produced from encrypting a 0-byte string, or from encrypting some string of length at least 8 bytes. Hence the call to '''C_DecryptUpdate''' should return 0 bytes of plaintext. If a single additional byte of ciphertext is supplied by a subsequent call to '''C_DecryptUpdate''', then that call should return 8 bytes of plaintext (one full DES block). == Disclaimer concerning sample code == For the remainder of this section, we enumerate the various functions defined in Cryptoki. Most functions will be shown in use in at least one sample code snippet. For the sake of brevity, sample code will frequently be somewhat incomplete. In particular, sample code will generally ignore possible error returns from C library functions, and also will not deal with Cryptoki error returns in a realistic fashion. == General-purpose functions == Cryptoki provides the following general-purpose functions: * '''C_Initialize''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_Initialize)( CK_VOID_PTR pInitArgs); '''C_Initialize''' initializes the Cryptoki library. ''pInitArgs'' either has the value NULL_PTR or points to a '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS''' structure containing information on how the library should deal with multi-threaded access. If an application will not be accessing Cryptoki through multiple threads simultaneously, it can generally supply the value NULL_PTR to '''C_Initialize''' (the consequences of supplying this value will be explained below). If ''pInitArgs'' is non-NULL_PTR, '''C_Initialize''' should cast it to a '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS_PTR''' and then dereference the resulting pointer to obtain the '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS''' fields ''CreateMutex'', ''DestroyMutex'', ''LockMutex'', ''UnlockMutex'', ''flags'', and ''pReserved''. For this version of Cryptoki, the value of ''pReserved'' thereby obtained must be NULL_PTR; if it’s not, then '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. If the '''CKF_LIBRARY_CANT_CREATE_OS_THREADS''' flag in the ''flags'' field is set, that indicates that application threads which are executing calls to the Cryptoki library are not permitted to use the native operation system calls to spawn off new threads. In other words, the library’s code may not create its own threads. If the library is unable to function properly under this restriction, '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_NEED_TO_CREATE_THREADS. A call to '''C_Initialize''' specifies one of four different ways to support multi-threaded access via the value of the '''CKF_OS_LOCKING_OK''' flag in the ''flags'' field and the values of the ''CreateMutex'', ''DestroyMutex'', ''LockMutex'', and ''UnlockMutex'' function pointer fields: # If the flag ''isn’t'' set, and the function pointer fields ''aren’t'' supplied (''i.e.'', they all have the value NULL_PTR), that means that the application ''won’t'' be accessing the Cryptoki library from multiple threads simultaneously. # If the flag ''is'' set, and the function pointer fields ''aren’t'' supplied (''i.e.'', they all have the value NULL_PTR), that means that the application ''will'' be performing multi-threaded Cryptoki access, and the library needs to use the native operating system primitives to ensure safe multi-threaded access. If the library is unable to do this, '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_CANT_LOCK. # If the flag ''isn’t'' set, and the function pointer fields ''are'' supplied (''i.e.'', they all have non-NULL_PTR values), that means that the application ''will'' be performing multi-threaded Cryptoki access, and the library needs to use the supplied function pointers for mutex-handling to ensure safe multi-threaded access. If the library is unable to do this, '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_CANT_LOCK. # If the flag ''is'' set, and the function pointer fields ''are'' supplied (''i.e.'', they all have non-NULL_PTR values), that means that the application ''will'' be performing multi-threaded Cryptoki access, and the library needs to use either the native operating system primitives or the supplied function pointers for mutex-handling to ensure safe multi-threaded access. If the library is unable to do this, '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_CANT_LOCK. If some, but not all, of the supplied function pointers to '''C_Initialize''' are non-NULL_PTR, then '''C_Initialize''' should return with the value CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. A call to '''C_Initialize''' with ''pInitArgs'' set to NULL_PTR is treated like a call to '''C_Initialize''' with ''pInitArgs'' pointing to a '''CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS''' which has the ''CreateMutex'', ''DestroyMutex'', ''LockMutex'', ''UnlockMutex'', and ''pReserved'' fields set to NULL_PTR, and has the ''flags'' field set to 0. '''C_Initialize''' should be the first Cryptoki call made by an application, except for calls to '''C_GetFunctionList'''. What this function actually does is implementation-dependent; typically, it might cause Cryptoki to initialize its internal memory buffers, or any other resources it requires. If several applications are using Cryptoki, each one should call '''C_Initialize'''. Every call to '''C_Initialize''' should (eventually) be succeeded by a single call to '''C_Finalize'''. See Section 6.6 for more details. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CANT_LOCK, CKR_CRYPTOKI_ALREADY_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_NEED_TO_CREATE_THREADS, CKR_OK. Example: see '''C_GetInfo'''. * '''C_Finalize''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_Finalize)( CK_VOID_PTR pReserved); '''C_Finalize''' is called to indicate that an application is finished with the Cryptoki library. It should be the last Cryptoki call made by an application. The ''pReserved'' parameter is reserved for future versions; for this version, it should be set to NULL_PTR (if '''C_Finalize''' is called with a non-NULL_PTR value for ''pReserved'', it should return the value CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. If several applications are using Cryptoki, each one should call '''C_Finalize'''. Each application’s call to '''C_Finalize''' should be preceded by a single call to '''C_Initialize'''; in between the two calls, an application can make calls to other Cryptoki functions. See Section 6.6 for more details. ''Despite the fact that the parameters supplied to '''C_Initialize''' can in general allow for safe multi-threaded access to a Cryptoki library, the behavior of '''C_Finalize''' is nevertheless undefined if it is called by an application while other threads of the application are making Cryptoki calls. The exception to this exceptional behavior of '''C_Finalize''' occurs when a thread calls '''C_Finalize''' while another of the application’s threads is blocking on Cryptoki’s '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' function. When this happens, the blocked thread becomes unblocked and returns the value CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED. See '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' for more information.'' Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK. Example: see '''C_GetInfo'''. * '''C_GetInfo''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetInfo)( CK_INFO_PTR pInfo); '''C_GetInfo''' returns general information about Cryptoki. ''pInfo'' points to the location that receives the information. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK. Example: CK_INFO info; CK_RV rv; CK_C_INITIALIZE_ARGS InitArgs; InitArgs.CreateMutex = &MyCreateMutex; InitArgs.DestroyMutex = &MyDestroyMutex; InitArgs.LockMutex = &MyLockMutex; InitArgs.UnlockMutex = &MyUnlockMutex; InitArgs.flags = CKF_OS_LOCKING_OK; InitArgs.pReserved = NULL_PTR; rv = C_Initialize((CK_VOID_PTR)&InitArgs); assert(rv == CKR_OK); rv = C_GetInfo(&info); assert(rv == CKR_OK); if(info.version.major == 2) { /* Do lots of interesting cryptographic things with the token */ . . } rv = C_Finalize(NULL_PTR); assert(rv == CKR_OK); * '''C_GetFunctionList''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetFunctionList)( CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR_PTR ppFunctionList); '''C_GetFunctionList''' obtains a pointer to the Cryptoki library’s list of function pointers. ''ppFunctionList'' points to a value which will receive a pointer to the library’s '''CK_FUNCTION_LIST''' structure, which in turn contains function pointers for all the Cryptoki API routines in the library. ''The pointer thus obtained may point into memory which is owned by the Cryptoki library, and which may or may not be writable''. Whether or not this is the case, no attempt should be made to write to this memory. '''C_GetFunctionList''' is the only Cryptoki function which an application may call before calling '''C_Initialize'''. It is provided to make it easier and faster for applications to use shared Cryptoki libraries and to use more than one Cryptoki library simultaneously. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK. Example: CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR pFunctionList; CK_C_Initialize pC_Initialize; CK_RV rv; /* It’s OK to call C_GetFunctionList before calling C_Initialize */ rv = C_GetFunctionList(&pFunctionList); assert(rv == CKR_OK); pC_Initialize = pFunctionList -> C_Initialize; /* Call the C_Initialize function in the library */ rv = (*pC_Initialize)(NULL_PTR); == Slot and token management functions == Cryptoki provides the following functions for slot and token management: * '''C_GetSlotList''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetSlotList)( CK_BBOOL tokenPresent, CK_SLOT_ID_PTR pSlotList, CK_ULONG_PTR pulCount); '''C_GetSlotList''' is used to obtain a list of slots in the system. ''tokenPresent'' indicates whether the list obtained includes only those slots with a token present (CK_TRUE), or all slots (CK_FALSE); ''pulCount'' points to the location that receives the number of slots. There are two ways for an application to call '''C_GetSlotList''': # If ''pSlotList'' is NULL_PTR, then all that '''C_GetSlotList''' does is return (in *''pulCount'') the number of slots, without actually returning a list of slots. The contents of the buffer pointed to by ''pulCount'' on entry to '''C_GetSlotList''' has no meaning in this case, and the call returns the value CKR_OK. # If ''pSlotList'' is not NULL_PTR, then *''pulCount'' must contain the size (in terms of '''CK_SLOT_ID''' elements) of the buffer pointed to by ''pSlotList''. If that buffer is large enough to hold the list of slots, then the list is returned in it, and CKR_OK is returned. If not, then the call to '''C_GetSlotList''' returns the value CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL. In either case, the value *''pulCount'' is set to hold the number of slots. Because '''C_GetSlotList''' does not allocate any space of its own, an application will often call '''C_GetSlotList''' twice (or sometimes even more times—if an application is trying to get a list of all slots with a token present, then the number of such slots can (unfortunately) change between when the application asks for how many such slots there are and when the application asks for the slots themselves). However, multiple calls to '''C_GetSlotList''' are by no means ''required''. All slots which '''C_GetSlotList''' reports must be able to be queried as valid slots by '''C_GetSlotInfo'''. Furthermore, the set of slots accessible through a Cryptoki library is checked at the time that '''C_GetSlotList,''' for list length prediction (NULL pSlotList argument) is called. If an application calls '''C_GetSlotList''' with a non-NULL pSlotList, and ''then'' the user adds or removes a hardware device, the changed slot list will only be visible and effective if '''C_GetSlotList''' is called again with NULL. Even if '''C_ GetSlotList''' is successfully called this way, it may or may not be the case that the changed slot list will be successfully recognized depending on the library implementation. On some platforms, or earlier PKCS11 compliant libraries, it may be necessary to successfully call '''C_Initialize''' or to restart the entire system. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK. Example: CK_ULONG ulSlotCount, ulSlotWithTokenCount; CK_SLOT_ID_PTR pSlotList, pSlotWithTokenList; CK_RV rv; /* Get list of all slots */ rv = C_GetSlotList(CK_FALSE, NULL_PTR, &ulSlotCount); if (rv == CKR_OK) { pSlotList = (CK_SLOT_ID_PTR) malloc(ulSlotCount*sizeof(CK_SLOT_ID)); rv = C_GetSlotList(CK_FALSE, pSlotList, &ulSlotCount); if (rv == CKR_OK) { /* Now use that list of all slots */ . . } free(pSlotList); } /* Get list of all slots with a token present */ pSlotWithTokenList = (CK_SLOT_ID_PTR) malloc(0); ulSlotWithTokenCount = 0; while (1) { rv = C_GetSlotList( CK_TRUE, pSlotWithTokenList, ulSlotWithTokenCount); if (rv != CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL) break; pSlotWithTokenList = realloc( pSlotWithTokenList, ulSlotWithTokenList*sizeof(CK_SLOT_ID)); } if (rv == CKR_OK) { /* Now use that list of all slots with a token present */ . . } free(pSlotWithTokenList); * '''C_GetSlotInfo''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetSlotInfo)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_SLOT_INFO_PTR pInfo); '''C_GetSlotInfo''' obtains information about a particular slot in the system. ''slotID'' is the ID of the slot; ''pInfo'' points to the location that receives the slot information. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID. Example: see '''C_GetTokenInfo.''' * '''C_GetTokenInfo''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetTokenInfo)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_TOKEN_INFO_PTR pInfo); '''C_GetTokenInfo''' obtains information about a particular token in the system. ''slotID'' is the ID of the token’s slot; ''pInfo'' points to the location that receives the token information. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: CK_ULONG ulCount; CK_SLOT_ID_PTR pSlotList; CK_SLOT_INFO slotInfo; CK_TOKEN_INFO tokenInfo; CK_RV rv; rv = C_GetSlotList(CK_FALSE, NULL_PTR, &ulCount); if ((rv == CKR_OK) && (ulCount > 0)) { pSlotList = (CK_SLOT_ID_PTR) malloc(ulCount*sizeof(CK_SLOT_ID)); rv = C_GetSlotList(CK_FALSE, pSlotList, &ulCount); assert(rv == CKR_OK); /* Get slot information for first slot */ rv = C_GetSlotInfo(pSlotList[0], &slotInfo); assert(rv == CKR_OK); /* Get token information for first slot */ rv = C_GetTokenInfo(pSlotList[0], &tokenInfo); if (rv == CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT) { . . } . . free(pSlotList); } * '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_WaitForSlotEvent)( CK_FLAGS flags, CK_SLOT_ID_PTR pSlot, CK_VOID_PTR pReserved); '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' waits for a slot event, such as token insertion or token removal, to occur. ''flags'' determines whether or not the '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' call blocks (''i.e.'', waits for a slot event to occur); ''pSlot'' points to a location which will receive the ID of the slot that the event occurred in. ''pReserved'' is reserved for future versions; for this version of Cryptoki, it should be NULL_PTR. At present, the only flag defined for use in the ''flags'' argument is '''CKF_DONT_BLOCK''': Internally, each Cryptoki application has a flag for each slot which is used to track whether or not any unrecognized events involving that slot have occurred. When an application initially calls '''C_Initialize''', every slot’s event flag is cleared. Whenever a slot event occurs, the flag corresponding to the slot in which the event occurred is set. If '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' is called with the '''CKF_DONT_BLOCK''' flag set in the ''flags'' argument, and some slot’s event flag is set, then that event flag is cleared, and the call returns with the ID of that slot in the location pointed to by ''pSlot''. If more than one slot’s event flag is set at the time of the call, one such slot is chosen by the library to have its event flag cleared and to have its slot ID returned. If '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' is called with the '''CKF_DONT_BLOCK''' flag set in the ''flags'' argument, and no slot’s event flag is set, then the call returns with the value CKR_NO_EVENT. In this case, the contents of the location pointed to by ''pSlot'' when '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' are undefined. If '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' is called with the '''CKF_DONT_BLOCK''' flag clear in the ''flags'' argument, then the call behaves as above, except that it will block. That is, if no slot’s event flag is set at the time of the call, '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' will wait until some slot’s event flag becomes set. If a thread of an application has a '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' call blocking when another thread of that application calls '''C_Finalize''', the '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' call returns with the value CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED. ''Although the parameters supplied to '''C_Initialize''' can in general allow for safe multi-threaded access to a Cryptoki library, '''C_WaitForSlotEvent''' is exceptional in that the behavior of Cryptoki is undefined if multiple threads of a single application make simultaneous calls to '''C_WaitForSlotEvent'''.'' Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_NO_EVENT, CKR_OK. Example: CK_FLAGS flags = 0; CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_SLOT_INFO slotInfo; . . /* Block and wait for a slot event */ rv = C_WaitForSlotEvent(flags, &slotID, NULL_PTR); assert(rv == CKR_OK); /* See what’s up with that slot */ rv = C_GetSlotInfo(slotID, &slotInfo); assert(rv == CKR_OK); . . * '''C_GetMechanismList''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetMechanismList)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_MECHANISM_TYPE_PTR pMechanismList, CK_ULONG_PTR pulCount); '''C_GetMechanismList''' is used to obtain a list of mechanism types supported by a token. ''SlotID'' is the ID of the token’s slot; ''pulCount'' points to the location that receives the number of mechanisms. There are two ways for an application to call '''C_GetMechanismList''': # If ''pMechanismList'' is NULL_PTR, then all that '''C_GetMechanismList''' does is return (in *''pulCount'') the number of mechanisms, without actually returning a list of mechanisms. The contents of *''pulCount'' on entry to '''C_GetMechanismList''' has no meaning in this case, and the call returns the value CKR_OK. # If ''pMechanismList'' is not NULL_PTR, then *''pulCount'' must contain the size (in terms of '''CK_MECHANISM_TYPE''' elements) of the buffer pointed to by ''pMechanismList''. If that buffer is large enough to hold the list of mechanisms, then the list is returned in it, and CKR_OK is returned. If not, then the call to '''C_GetMechanismList''' returns the value CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL. In either case, the value *''pulCount'' is set to hold the number of mechanisms. Because '''C_GetMechanismList''' does not allocate any space of its own, an application will often call '''C_GetMechanismList''' twice. However, this behavior is by no means required. Return values: CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_ULONG ulCount; CK_MECHANISM_TYPE_PTR pMechanismList; CK_RV rv; . . rv = C_GetMechanismList(slotID, NULL_PTR, &ulCount); if ((rv == CKR_OK) && (ulCount > 0)) { pMechanismList = (CK_MECHANISM_TYPE_PTR) malloc(ulCount*sizeof(CK_MECHANISM_TYPE)); rv = C_GetMechanismList(slotID, pMechanismList, &ulCount); if (rv == CKR_OK) { . . } free(pMechanismList); } * '''C_GetMechanismInfo''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetMechanismInfo)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_MECHANISM_TYPE type, CK_MECHANISM_INFO_PTR pInfo); '''C_GetMechanismInfo''' obtains information about a particular mechanism possibly supported by a token. ''slotID'' is the ID of the token’s slot; ''type'' is the type of mechanism; ''pInfo'' points to the location that receives the mechanism information. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_MECHANISM_INVALID, CKR_OK, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_MECHANISM_INFO info; CK_RV rv; . . /* Get information about the CKM_MD2 mechanism for this token */ rv = C_GetMechanismInfo(slotID, CKM_MD2, &info); if (rv == CKR_OK) { if (info.flags & CKF_DIGEST) { . . } } * '''C_InitToken''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_InitToken)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_UTF8CHAR_PTR pPin, CK_ULONG ulPinLen, CK_UTF8CHAR_PTR pLabel); '''C_InitToken''' initializes a token. ''slotID'' is the ID of the token’s slot; ''pPin'' points to the SO’s initial PIN (which need ''not'' be null-terminated); ''ulPinLen'' is the length in bytes of the PIN; ''pLabel'' points to the 32-byte label of the token (which must be padded with blank characters, and which must ''not'' be null-terminated). This standard allows PIN values to contain any valid UTF8 character, but the token may impose subset restrictions. If the token has not been initialized (i.e. new from the factory), then the ''pPin ''parameter becomes the initial value of the SO PIN. If the token is being reinitialized, the ''pPin'' parameter is checked against the existing SO PIN to authorize the initialization operation. In both cases, the SO PIN is the value ''pPin'' after the function completes successfully. If the SO PIN is lost, then the card must be reinitialized using a mechanism outside the scope of this standard. The '''CKF_TOKEN_INITIALIZED '''flag in the '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' structure indicates the action that will result from calling '''C_InitToken'''. If set, the token will be reinitialized, and the client must supply the existing SO password in ''pPin''. When a token is initialized, all objects that can be destroyed are destroyed (''i.e.'', all except for “indestructible” objects such as keys built into the token). Also, access by the normal user is disabled until the SO sets the normal user’s PIN. Depending on the token, some “default” objects may be created, and attributes of some objects may be set to default values. If the token has a “protected authentication path”, as indicated by the '''CKF_PROTECTED_AUTHENTICATION_PATH''' flag in its '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' being set, then that means that there is some way for a user to be authenticated to the token without having the application send a PIN through the Cryptoki library. One such possibility is that the user enters a PIN on a PINpad on the token itself, or on the slot device. To initialize a token with such a protected authentication path, the ''pPin'' parameter to '''C_InitToken''' should be NULL_PTR. During the execution of '''C_InitToken''', the SO’s PIN will be entered through the protected authentication path. If the token has a protected authentication path other than a PINpad, then it is token-dependent whether or not '''C_InitToken''' can be used to initialize the token. A token cannot be initialized if Cryptoki detects that ''any'' application has an open session with it; when a call to '''C_InitToken''' is made under such circumstances, the call fails with error CKR_SESSION_EXISTS. Unfortunately, it may happen when '''C_InitToken''' is called that some other application ''does'' have an open session with the token, but Cryptoki cannot detect this, because it cannot detect anything about other applications using the token. If this is the case, then the consequences of the '''C_InitToken''' call are undefined. The '''C_InitToken''' function may not be sufficient to properly initialize complex tokens. In these situations, an initialization mechanism outside the scope of Cryptoki must be employed. The definition of “complex token” is product specific. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_CANCELED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_PIN_INCORRECT, CKR_PIN_LOCKED, CKR_SESSION_EXISTS, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED, CKR_TOKEN_WRITE_PROTECTED, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD.

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pPin'' points to the normal user’s PIN;'' ulPinLen'' is the length in bytes of the PIN. This standard allows PIN values to contain any valid UTF8 character, but the token may impose subset restrictions. '''C_InitPIN''' can only be called in the “R/W SO Functions” state. An attempt to call it from a session in any other state fails with error CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN. If the token has a “protected authentication path”, as indicated by the CKF_PROTECTED_AUTHENTICATION_PATH flag in its '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' being set, then that means that there is some way for a user to be authenticated to the token without having the application send a PIN through the Cryptoki library. One such possibility is that the user enters a PIN on a PINpad on the token itself, or on the slot device. To initialize the normal user’s PIN on a token with such a protected authentication path, the ''pPin'' parameter to '''C_InitPIN''' should be NULL_PTR. During the execution of '''C_InitPIN''', the SO will enter the new PIN through the protected authentication path. If the token has a protected authentication path other than a PINpad, then it is token-dependent whether or not '''C_InitPIN''' can be used to initialize the normal user’s token access. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_CANCELED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_PIN_INVALID, CKR_PIN_LEN_RANGE, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_WRITE_PROTECTED, CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD.

This standard allows PIN values to contain any valid UTF8 character, but the token may impose subset restrictions. '''C_SetPIN''' can only be called in the “R/W Public Session” state, “R/W SO Functions” state, or “R/W User Functions” state. An attempt to call it from a session in any other state fails with error CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY. If the token has a “protected authentication path”, as indicated by the CKF_PROTECTED_AUTHENTICATION_PATH flag in its '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' being set, then that means that there is some way for a user to be authenticated to the token without having the application send a PIN through the Cryptoki library. One such possibility is that the user enters a PIN on a PINpad on the token itself, or on the slot device. To modify the current user’s PIN on a token with such a protected authentication path, the ''pOldPin'' and ''pNewPin'' parameters to '''C_SetPIN''' should be NULL_PTR. During the execution of '''C_SetPIN''', the current user will enter the old PIN and the new PIN through the protected authentication path. It is not specified how the PINpad should be used to enter ''two'' PINs; this varies. If the token has a protected authentication path other than a PINpad, then it is token-dependent whether or not '''C_SetPIN''' can be used to modify the current user’s PIN.

Example: CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession; CK_UTF8CHAR oldPin[] = {“OldPIN”}; CK_UTF8CHAR newPin[] = {“NewPIN”}; CK_RV rv; rv = C_SetPIN( hSession, oldPin, sizeof(oldPin)-1, newPin, sizeof(newPin)-1); if (rv == CKR_OK) { . . } == Session management functions == A typical application might perform the following series of steps to make use of a token (note that there are other reasonable sequences of events that an application might perform): # Select a token. # Make one or more calls to '''C_OpenSession''' to obtain one or more sessions with the token. # Call '''C_Login''' to log the user into the token. Since all sessions an application has with a token have a shared login state, '''C_Login''' only needs to be called for one of the sessions. # Perform cryptographic operations using the sessions with the token. # Call '''C_CloseSession''' once for each session that the application has with the token, or call '''C_CloseAllSessions''' to close all the application’s sessions simultaneously. As has been observed, an application may have concurrent sessions with more than one token. It is also possible for a token to have concurrent sessions with more than one application. Cryptoki provides the following functions for session management: * '''C_OpenSession''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_OpenSession)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID, CK_FLAGS flags, CK_VOID_PTR pApplication, CK_NOTIFY Notify, CK_SESSION_HANDLE_PTR phSession); '''C_OpenSession''' opens a session between an application and a token in a particular slot. ''slotID'' is the slot’s ID; ''flags'' indicates the type of session; ''pApplication'' is an application-defined pointer to be passed to the notification callback; ''Notify'' is the address of the notification callback function (see Section 11.17); ''phSession'' points to the location that receives the handle for the new session. When opening a session with '''C_OpenSession''', the ''flags'' parameter consists of the logical OR of zero or more bit flags defined in the '''CK_SESSION_INFO''' data type. For legacy reasons, the '''CKF_SERIAL_SESSION''' bit must always be set; if a call to '''C_OpenSession''' does not have this bit set, the call should return unsuccessfully with the error code CKR_SESSION_PARALLEL_NOT_SUPPORTED. There may be a limit on the number of concurrent sessions an application may have with the token, which may depend on whether the session is “read-only” or “read/write”. An attempt to open a session which does not succeed because there are too many existing sessions of some type should return CKR_SESSION_COUNT. If the token is write-protected (as indicated in the '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' structure), then only read-only sessions may be opened with it. If the application calling '''C_OpenSession''' already has a R/W SO session open with the token, then any attempt to open a R/O session with the token fails with error code CKR_SESSION_READ_WRITE_SO_EXISTS (see Section 6.7.7). The ''Notify'' callback function is used by Cryptoki to notify the application of certain events. If the application does not wish to support callbacks, it should pass a value of NULL_PTR as the ''Notify'' parameter. See Section 11.17 for more information about application callbacks. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SESSION_COUNT, CKR_SESSION_PARALLEL_NOT_SUPPORTED, CKR_SESSION_READ_WRITE_SO_EXISTS, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_RECOGNIZED, CKR_TOKEN_WRITE_PROTECTED, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: see '''C_CloseSession'''. * '''C_CloseSession''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_CloseSession)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession); '''C_CloseSession''' closes a session between an application and a token. ''hSession'' is the session’s handle. When a session is closed, all session objects created by the session are destroyed automatically, even if the application has other sessions “using” the objects (see Sections 6.7.5-6.7.7 for more details). If this function is successful and it closes the last session between the application and the token, the login state of the token for the application returns to public sessions. Any new sessions to the token opened by the application will be either R/O Public or R/W Public sessions. Depending on the token, when the last open session any application has with the token is closed, the token may be “ejected” from its reader (if this capability exists). Despite the fact this '''C_CloseSession''' is supposed to close a session, the return value CKR_SESSION_CLOSED is an ''error'' return. It actually indicates the (probably somewhat unlikely) event that while this function call was executing, another call was made to '''C_CloseSession''' to close this particular session, and that call finished executing first. Such uses of sessions are a bad idea, and Cryptoki makes little promise of what will occur in general if an application indulges in this sort of behavior. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID. Example: CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_BYTE application; CK_NOTIFY MyNotify; CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession; CK_RV rv; . . application = 17; MyNotify = &EncryptionSessionCallback; rv = C_OpenSession( slotID, CKF_SERIAL_SESSION | CKF_RW_SESSION, (CK_VOID_PTR) &application, MyNotify, &hSession); if (rv == CKR_OK) { . . C_CloseSession(hSession); } * '''C_CloseAllSessions''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_CloseAllSessions)( CK_SLOT_ID slotID); '''C_CloseAllSessions''' closes all sessions an application has with a token. ''slotID'' specifies the token’s slot. When a session is closed, all session objects created by the session are destroyed automatically. After successful execution of this function, the login state of the token for the application returns to public sessions. Any new sessions to the token opened by the application will be either R/O Public or R/W Public sessions. Depending on the token, when the last open session any application has with the token is closed, the token may be “ejected” from its reader (if this capability exists). Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SLOT_ID_INVALID, CKR_TOKEN_NOT_PRESENT. Example: CK_SLOT_ID slotID; CK_RV rv; . . rv = C_CloseAllSessions(slotID); * '''C_GetSessionInfo''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetSessionInfo)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession, CK_SESSION_INFO_PTR pInfo); '''C_GetSessionInfo''' obtains information about a session. ''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pInfo'' points to the location that receives the session information. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession; CK_SESSION_INFO info; CK_RV rv; . . rv = C_GetSessionInfo(hSession, &info); if (rv == CKR_OK) { if (info.state == CKS_RW_USER_FUNCTIONS) { . . } . . } * '''C_GetOperationState''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetOperationState)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession, CK_BYTE_PTR pOperationState, CK_ULONG_PTR pulOperationStateLen); '''C_GetOperationState''' obtains a copy of the cryptographic operations state of a session, encoded as a string of bytes. ''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pOperationState'' points to the location that receives the state; ''pulOperationStateLen'' points to the location that receives the length in bytes of the state. Although the saved state output by '''C_GetOperationState''' is not really produced by a “cryptographic mechanism”, '''C_GetOperationState''' nonetheless uses the convention described in Section 11.2 on producing output. Precisely what the “cryptographic operations state” this function saves is varies from token to token; however, this state is what is provided as input to '''C_SetOperationState''' to restore the cryptographic activities of a session. Consider a session which is performing a message digest operation using SHA-1 (''i.e.'', the session is using the '''CKM_SHA_1''' mechanism). Suppose that the message digest operation was initialized properly, and that precisely 80 bytes of data have been supplied so far as input to SHA-1. The application now wants to “save the state” of this digest operation, so that it can continue it later. In this particular case, since SHA-1 processes 512 bits (64 bytes) of input at a time, the cryptographic operations state of the session most likely consists of three distinct parts: the state of SHA-1’s 160-bit internal chaining variable; the 16 bytes of unprocessed input data; and some administrative data indicating that this saved state comes from a session which was performing SHA-1 hashing. Taken together, these three pieces of information suffice to continue the current hashing operation at a later time. Consider next a session which is performing an encryption operation with DES (a block cipher with a block size of 64 bits) in CBC (cipher-block chaining) mode (''i.e.'', the session is using the '''CKM_DES_CBC''' mechanism). Suppose that precisely 22 bytes of data (in addition to an IV for the CBC mode) have been supplied so far as input to DES, which means that the first two 8-byte blocks of ciphertext have already been produced and output. In this case, the cryptographic operations state of the session most likely consists of three or four distinct parts: the second 8-byte block of ciphertext (this will be used for cipher-block chaining to produce the next block of ciphertext); the 6 bytes of data still awaiting encryption; some administrative data indicating that this saved state comes from a session which was performing DES encryption in CBC mode; and possibly the DES key being used for encryption (see '''C_SetOperationState''' for more information on whether or not the key is present in the saved state). If a session is performing two cryptographic operations simultaneously (see Section 11.13), then the cryptographic operations state of the session will contain all the necessary information to restore both operations. An attempt to save the cryptographic operations state of a session which does not currently have some active savable cryptographic operation(s) (encryption, decryption, digesting, signing without message recovery, verification without message recovery, or some legal combination of two of these) should fail with the error CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED. An attempt to save the cryptographic operations state of a session which is performing an appropriate cryptographic operation (or two), but which cannot be satisfied for any of various reasons (certain necessary state information and/or key information can’t leave the token, for example) should fail with the error CKR_STATE_UNSAVEABLE. Return values: CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_STATE_UNSAVEABLE, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD. Example: see '''C_SetOperationState'''. * '''C_SetOperationState''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_SetOperationState)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession, CK_BYTE_PTR pOperationState, CK_ULONG ulOperationStateLen, CK_OBJECT_HANDLE hEncryptionKey, CK_OBJECT_HANDLE hAuthenticationKey); '''C_SetOperationState''' restores the cryptographic operations state of a session from a string of bytes obtained with '''C_GetOperationState'''. ''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pOperationState'' points to the location holding the saved state; ''ulOperationStateLen'' holds the length of the saved state; ''hEncryptionKey'' holds a handle to the key which will be used for an ongoing encryption or decryption operation in the restored session (or 0 if no encryption or decryption key is needed, either because no such operation is ongoing in the stored session or because all the necessary key information is present in the saved state); ''hAuthenticationKey'' holds a handle to the key which will be used for an ongoing signature, MACing, or verification operation in the restored session (or 0 if no such key is needed, either because no such operation is ongoing in the stored session or because all the necessary key information is present in the saved state). The state need not have been obtained from the same session (the “source session”) as it is being restored to (the “destination session”). However, the source session and destination session should have a common session state (''e.g.'', CKS_RW_USER_FUNCTIONS), and should be with a common token. There is also no guarantee that cryptographic operations state may be carried across logins, or across different Cryptoki implementations. If '''C_SetOperationState''' is supplied with alleged saved cryptographic operations state which it can determine is not valid saved state (or is cryptographic operations state from a session with a different session state, or is cryptographic operations state from a different token), it fails with the error CKR_SAVED_STATE_INVALID. Saved state obtained from calls to '''C_GetOperationState''' may or may not contain information about keys in use for ongoing cryptographic operations. If a saved cryptographic operations state has an ongoing encryption or decryption operation, and the key in use for the operation is not saved in the state, then it must be supplied to '''C_SetOperationState''' in the ''hEncryptionKey'' argument. If it is not, then '''C_SetOperationState''' will fail and return the error CKR_KEY_NEEDED. If the key in use for the operation ''is'' saved in the state, then it ''can'' be supplied in the ''hEncryptionKey'' argument, but this is not required. Similarly, if a saved cryptographic operations state has an ongoing signature, MACing, or verification operation, and the key in use for the operation is not saved in the state, then it must be supplied to '''C_SetOperationState''' in the ''hAuthenticationKey'' argument. If it is not, then '''C_SetOperationState''' will fail with the error CKR_KEY_NEEDED. If the key in use for the operation ''is'' saved in the state, then it ''can'' be supplied in the ''hAuthenticationKey'' argument, but this is not required. If an ''irrelevant'' key is supplied to '''C_SetOperationState''' call (''e.g.'', a nonzero key handle is submitted in the ''hEncryptionKey'' argument, but the saved cryptographic operations state supplied does not have an ongoing encryption or decryption operation, then '''C_SetOperationState''' fails with the error CKR_KEY_NOT_NEEDED. If a key is supplied as an argument to '''C_SetOperationState''', and '''C_SetOperationState''' can somehow detect that this key was not the key being used in the source session for the supplied cryptographic operations state (it may be able to detect this if the key or a hash of the key is present in the saved state, for example), then '''C_SetOperationState''' fails with the error CKR_KEY_CHANGED. An application can look at the '''CKF_RESTORE_KEY_NOT_NEEDED''' flag in the flags field of the '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' field for a token to determine whether or not it needs to supply key handles to '''C_SetOperationState''' calls. If this flag is true, then a call to '''C_SetOperationState''' ''never'' needs a key handle to be supplied to it. If this flag is false, then at least some of the time, '''C_SetOperationState''' requires a key handle, and so the application should probably ''always'' pass in any relevant key handles when restoring cryptographic operations state to a session. '''C_SetOperationState''' can successfully restore cryptographic operations state to a session even if that session has active cryptographic or object search operations when '''C_SetOperationState''' is called (the ongoing operations are abruptly cancelled). Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_KEY_CHANGED, CKR_KEY_NEEDED, CKR_KEY_NOT_NEEDED, CKR_OK, CKR_SAVED_STATE_INVALID, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD.

''hSession'' is a session handle; ''userType'' is the user type; ''pPin'' points to the user’s PIN;'' ulPinLen'' is the length of the PIN. This standard allows PIN values to contain any valid UTF8 character, but the token may impose subset restrictions. When the user type is either CKU_SO or CKU_USER, if the call succeeds, each of the application's sessions will enter either the "R/W SO Functions" state, the "R/W User Functions" state, or the "R/O User Functions" state. If the user type is CKU_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC , the behavior of C_Login depends on the context in which it is called. Improper use of this user type will result in a return value CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED.. If the token has a “protected authentication path”, as indicated by the '''CKF_PROTECTED_AUTHENTICATION_PATH''' flag in its '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' being set, then that means that there is some way for a user to be authenticated to the token without having the application send a PIN through the Cryptoki library. One such possibility is that the user enters a PIN on a PINpad on the token itself, or on the slot device. Or the user might not even use a PIN—authentication could be achieved by some fingerprint-reading device, for example. To log into a token with a protected authentication path, the ''pPin'' parameter to '''C_Login''' should be NULL_PTR. When '''C_Login''' returns, whatever authentication method supported by the token will have been performed; a return value of CKR_OK means that the user was successfully authenticated, and a return value of CKR_PIN_INCORRECT means that the user was denied access. If there are any active cryptographic or object finding operations in an application’s session, and then '''C_Login''' is successfully executed by that application, it may or may not be the case that those operations are still active. Therefore, before logging in, any active operations should be finished. If the application calling '''C_Login''' has a R/O session open with the token, then it will be unable to log the SO into a session (see Section 6.7.7). An attempt to do this will result in the error code CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY_EXISTS. C_Login may be called repeatedly, without intervening '''C_Logout''' calls, if (and only if) a key with the CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE attribute set to CK_TRUE exists, and the user needs to do cryptographic operation on this key. See further Section 10.9. Return values: CKR_ARGUMENTS_BAD, CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_DEVICE_ERROR, CKR_DEVICE_MEMORY, CKR_DEVICE_REMOVED, CKR_FUNCTION_CANCELED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_OK, CKR_OPERATION_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_PIN_INCORRECT, CKR_PIN_LOCKED, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_SESSION_READ_ONLY_EXISTS, CKR_USER_ALREADY_LOGGED_IN, CKR_USER_ANOTHER_ALREADY_LOGGED_IN, CKR_USER_PIN_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_USER_TOO_MANY_TYPES, CKR_USER_TYPE_INVALID. Example: see '''C_Logout'''. * '''C_Logout''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_Logout)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession); '''C_Logout''' logs a user out from a token. ''hSession'' is the session’s handle. Depending on the current user type, if the call succeeds, each of the application’s sessions will enter either the “R/W Public Session” state or the “R/O Public Session” state. When '''C_Logout''' successfully executes, any of the application’s handles to private objects become invalid (even if a user is later logged back into the token, those handles remain invalid). In addition, all private session objects from sessions belonging to the application are destroyed. If there are any active cryptographic or object-finding operations in an application’s session, and then '''C_Logout''' is successfully executed by that application, it may or may not be the case that those operations are still active. Therefore, before logging out, any active operations should be finished.

It may also specify new values of the '''CKA_TOKEN''' and '''CKA_PRIVATE''' attributes (''e.g.'', to copy a session object to a token object).

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''hObject'' is the object’s handle; ''pulSize'' points to the location that receives the size in bytes of the object. Cryptoki does not specify what the precise meaning of an object’s size is. Intuitively, it is some measure of how much token memory the object takes up. If an application deletes (say) a private object of size S, it might be reasonable to assume that the ''ulFreePrivateMemory'' field of the token’s '''CK_TOKEN_INFO''' structure increases by approximately S.

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''hObject'' is the object’s handle; ''pTemplate'' points to a template that specifies which attribute values are to be obtained, and receives the attribute values; ''ulCount'' is the number of attributes in the template. For each (''type'', ''pValue'', ''ulValueLen'') triple in the template, '''C_GetAttributeValue''' performs the following algorithm: # If the specified attribute (''i.e.'', the attribute specified by the ''type'' field) for the object cannot be revealed because the object is sensitive or unextractable, then the ''ulValueLen'' field in that triple is modified to hold the value -1 (''i.e.'', when it is cast to a CK_LONG, it holds -1). # Otherwise, if the specified attribute for the object is invalid (the object does not possess such an attribute), then the ''ulValueLen'' field in that triple is modified to hold the value -1. # Otherwise, if the ''pValue'' field has the value NULL_PTR, then the ''ulValueLen'' field is modified to hold the exact length of the specified attribute for the object. # Otherwise, if the length specified in ''ulValueLen'' is large enough to hold the value of the specified attribute for the object, then that attribute is copied into the buffer located at ''pValue'', and the ''ulValueLen'' field is modified to hold the exact length of the attribute. # Otherwise, the ''ulValueLen'' field is modified to hold the value -1. If case 1 applies to any of the requested attributes, then the call should return the value CKR_ATTRIBUTE_SENSITIVE. If case 2 applies to any of the requested attributes, then the call should return the value CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID. If case 5 applies to any of the requested attributes, then the call should return the value CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL. As usual, if more than one of these error codes is applicable, Cryptoki may return any of them. Only if none of them applies to any of the requested attributes will CKR_OK be returned. In the special case of an attribute whose value is an array of attributes, for example '''CKA_WRAP_TEMPLATE''', where it is passed in with ''pValue'' not NULL, then if the ''pValue'' of elements within the array is NULL_PTR then the ''ulValueLen'' of elements within the array will be set to the required length. If the ''pValue'' of elements within the array is not NULL_PTR, then the ''ulValueLen'' element of attributes within the array must reflect the space that the corresponding ''pValue'' points to, and ''pValue'' is filled in if there is sufficient room. Therefore it is important to initialize the contents of a buffer before calling '''C_GetAttributeValue''' to get such an array value. If any ''ulValueLen'' within the array isn't large enough, it will be set to –1 and the function will return CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, as it does if an attribute in the ''pTemplate'' argument has ''ulValueLen'' too small. Note that any attribute whose value is an array of attributes is identifiable by virtue of the attribute type having the CKF_ARRAY_ATTRIBUTE bit set. Note that the error codes CKR_ATTRIBUTE_SENSITIVE, CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID, and CKR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL do not denote true errors for '''C_GetAttributeValue'''. If a call to '''C_GetAttributeValue''' returns any of these three values, then the call must nonetheless have processed ''every'' attribute in the template supplied to '''C_GetAttributeValue'''. Each attribute in the template whose value ''can be'' returned by the call to '''C_GetAttributeValue''' ''will be'' returned by the call to '''C_GetAttributeValue'''.

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''hObject'' is the object’s handle; ''pTemplate'' points to a template that specifies which attribute values are to be modified and their new values; ''ulCount'' is the number of attributes in the template. Only session objects can be modified during a read-only session. The template may specify new values for any attributes of the object that can be modified. If the template specifies a value of an attribute which is incompatible with other existing attributes of the object, the call fails with the return code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT. Not all attributes can be modified; see Section 10.1.2 for more details.

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pTemplate'' points to a search template that specifies the attribute values to match; ''ulCount'' is the number of attributes in the search template. The matching criterion is an exact byte-for-byte match with all attributes in the template. To find all objects, set ''ulCount'' to 0. After calling '''C_FindObjectsInit''', the application may call '''C_FindObjects''' one or more times to obtain handles for objects matching the template, and then eventually call '''C_FindObjectsFinal''' to finish the active search operation. At most one search operation may be active at a given time in a given session. The object search operation will only find objects that the session can view. For example, an object search in an “R/W Public Session” will not find any private objects (even if one of the attributes in the search template specifies that the search is for private objects). If a search operation is active, and objects are created or destroyed which fit the search template for the active search operation, then those objects may or may not be found by the search operation. Note that this means that, under these circumstances, the search operation may return invalid object handles. Even though '''C_FindObjectsInit''' can return the values CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID and CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID, it is not required to. For example, if it is given a search template with nonexistent attributes in it, it can return CKR_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE_INVALID, or it can initialize a search operation which will match no objects and return CKR_OK.

'''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' uses the convention described in Section 11.2 on producing output. If a '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' call does not produce decrypted output (because an error occurs, or because ''pPart'' has the value NULL_PTR, or because ''pulPartLen'' is too small to hold the entire decrypted part output), then no plaintext is passed to the active digest operation. Decryption and digesting operations must both be active (they must have been initialized with '''C_DecryptInit''' and '''C_DigestInit,''' respectively). This function may be called any number of times in succession, and may be interspersed with '''C_DecryptUpdate''', '''C_DigestUpdate''', and '''C_DigestKey''' calls (it would be somewhat unusual to intersperse calls to '''C_DigestEncryptUpdate''' with calls to '''C_DigestKey''', however). Use of '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' involves a pipelining issue that does not arise when using '''C_DigestEncryptUpdate''', the “inverse function” of '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate'''. This is because when '''C_DigestEncryptUpdate''' is called, precisely the same input is passed to both the active digesting operation and the active encryption operation; however, when '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' is called, the input passed to the active digesting operation is the ''output of'' the active decryption operation. This issue comes up only when the mechanism used for decryption performs padding. In particular, envision a 24-byte ciphertext which was obtained by encrypting an 18-byte plaintext with DES in CBC mode with PKCS padding. Consider an application which will simultaneously decrypt this ciphertext and digest the original plaintext thereby obtained. After initializing decryption and digesting operations, the application passes the 24-byte ciphertext (3 DES blocks) into '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate'''. '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' returns exactly 16 bytes of plaintext, since at this point, Cryptoki doesn’t know if there’s more ciphertext coming, or if the last block of ciphertext held any padding. These 16 bytes of plaintext are passed into the active digesting operation. Since there is no more ciphertext, the application calls '''C_DecryptFinal'''. This tells Cryptoki that there’s no more ciphertext coming, and the call returns the last 2 bytes of plaintext. However, since the active decryption and digesting operations are linked ''only'' through the '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''' call, these 2 bytes of plaintext are ''not'' passed on to be digested. A call to '''C_DigestFinal''', therefore, would compute the message digest of ''the first 16 bytes of the plaintext'', not the message digest of the entire plaintext. It is crucial that, before '''C_DigestFinal''' is called, the last 2 bytes of plaintext get passed into the active digesting operation via a '''C_DigestUpdate''' call. Because of this, it is critical that when an application uses a padded decryption mechanism with '''C_DecryptDigestUpdate''', it knows exactly how much plaintext has been passed into the active digesting operation.

'''C_WrapKey''' uses the convention described in Section 11.2 on producing output. The '''CKA_WRAP''' attribute of the wrapping key, which indicates whether the key supports wrapping, must be CK_TRUE. The '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute of the key to be wrapped must also be CK_TRUE. If the key to be wrapped cannot be wrapped for some token-specific reason, despite its having its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then '''C_WrapKey''' fails with error code CKR_KEY_NOT_WRAPPABLE.

'''C_WrapKey''' can be used in the following situations: * To wrap any secret key with a public key that supports encryption and decryption. * To wrap any secret key with any other secret key. Consideration must be given to key size and mechanism strength or the token may not allow the operation. * To wrap a private key with any secret key. Of course, tokens vary in which types of keys can actually be wrapped with which mechanisms. To partition the wrapping keys so they can only wrap a subset of extractable keys the attribute CKA_WRAP_TEMPLATE can be used on the wrapping key to specify an attribute set that will be compared against the attributes of the key to be wrapped. If all attributes match according to the C_FindObject rules of attribute matching then the wrap will proceed. The value of this attribute is an attribute template and the size is the number of items in the template times the size of CK_ATTRIBUTE. If this attribute is not supplied then any template is acceptable. Attributes not present are not checked. If any attribute mismatch occurs on an attempt to wrap a key then the function shall return CKR_KEY_HANDLE_INVALID.

The '''CKA_UNWRAP''' attribute of the unwrapping key, which indicates whether the key supports unwrapping, must be CK_TRUE. The new key will have the '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, and the '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE. The '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is by default set to CK_TRUE.

''hSession'' is the session’s handle; ''pRandomData'' points to the location that receives the random data; and'' ulRandomLen'' is the length in bytes of the random or pseudo-random data to be generated.

These functions exist only for backwards compatibility. * '''C_GetFunctionStatus''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_GetFunctionStatus)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession); In previous versions of Cryptoki, '''C_GetFunctionStatus''' obtained the status of a function running in parallel with an application. Now, however, '''C_GetFunctionStatus''' is a legacy function which should simply return the value CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_PARALLEL. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_PARALLEL, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED. * '''C_CancelFunction''' CK_DEFINE_FUNCTION(CK_RV, C_CancelFunction)( CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession); In previous versions of Cryptoki, '''C_CancelFunction''' cancelled a function running in parallel with an application. Now, however, '''C_CancelFunction''' is a legacy function which should simply return the value CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_PARALLEL. Return values: CKR_CRYPTOKI_NOT_INITIALIZED, CKR_FUNCTION_FAILED, CKR_FUNCTION_NOT_PARALLEL, CKR_GENERAL_ERROR, CKR_HOST_MEMORY, CKR_SESSION_HANDLE_INVALID, CKR_SESSION_CLOSED. == Callback functions == Cryptoki sessions can use function pointers of type '''CK_NOTIFY''' to notify the application of certain events. === Surrender callbacks === Cryptographic functions (''i.e.'', any functions falling under one of these categories: encryption functions; decryption functions; message digesting functions; signing and MACing functions; functions for verifying signatures and MACs; dual-purpose cryptographic functions; key management functions; random number generation functions) executing in Cryptoki sessions can periodically surrender control to the application who called them if the session they are executing in had a notification callback function associated with it when it was opened. They do this by calling the session’s callback with the arguments (hSession, CKN_SURRENDER, pApplication), where hSession is the session’s handle and pApplication was supplied to '''C_OpenSession''' when the session was opened. Surrender callbacks should return either the value CKR_OK (to indicate that Cryptoki should continue executing the function) or the value CKR_CANCEL (to indicate that Cryptoki should abort execution of the function). Of course, before returning one of these values, the callback function can perform some computation, if desired. A typical use of a surrender callback might be to give an application user feedback during a lengthy key pair generation operation. Each time the application receives a callback, it could display an additional “.” to the user. It might also examine the keyboard’s activity since the last surrender callback, and abort the key pair generation operation (probably by returning the value CKR_CANCEL) if the user hit . A Cryptoki library is not ''required'' to make ''any'' surrender callbacks. === Vendor-defined callbacks === Library vendors can also define additional types of callbacks. Because of this extension capability, application-supplied notification callback routines should examine each callback they receive, and if they are unfamiliar with the type of that callback, they should immediately give control back to the library by returning with the value CKR_OK. = Mechanisms 1 = A mechanism specifies precisely how a certain cryptographic process is to be performed. The following table shows which Cryptoki mechanisms are supported by different cryptographic operations. For any particular token, of course, a particular operation may well support only a subset of the mechanisms listed. There is also no guarantee that a token which supports one mechanism for some operation supports any other mechanism for any other operation (or even supports that same mechanism for any other operation). For example, even if a token is able to create RSA digital signatures with the '''CKM_RSA_PKCS''' mechanism, it may or may not be the case that the same token can also perform RSA encryption with '''CKM_RSA_PKCS'''. Each mechanism description shall be preceeded by a table, of the following format, mapping mechanisms to API functions.

The following table defines the RSA public key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 22, RSA Public Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_MODULUS1,4 | Big integer | Modulus ''n'' |- | CKA_MODULUS_BITS2,3 | CK_ULONG | Length in bits of modulus ''n'' |- | CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT1 | Big integer | Public exponent ''e'' |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes Depending on the token, there may be limits on the length of key components. See PKCS #1 for more information on RSA keys. The following is a sample template for creating an RSA public key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PUBLIC_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_RSA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An RSA public key object”; CK_BYTE modulus[] = {...}; CK_BYTE exponent[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_WRAP, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_MODULUS, modulus, sizeof(modulus)}, {CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT, exponent, sizeof(exponent)} }; === RSA private key objects === RSA private key objects (object class '''CKO_PRIVATE_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_RSA''') hold RSA private keys. The following table defines the RSA private key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 23, RSA Private Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_MODULUS1,4,6 | Big integer | Modulus ''n'' |- | CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT4,6 | Big integer | Public exponent ''e'' |- | CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT1,4,6,7 | Big integer | Private exponent ''d'' |- | CKA_PRIME_14,6,7 | Big integer | Prime ''p'' |- | CKA_PRIME_24,6,7 | Big integer | Prime ''q'' |- | CKA_EXPONENT_14,6,7 | Big integer | Private exponent ''d'' modulo ''p''-1 |- | CKA_EXPONENT_24,6,7 | Big integer | Private exponent ''d'' modulo ''q''-1 |- | CKA_COEFFICIENT4,6,7 | Big integer | CRT coefficient ''q''-1 mod ''p'' |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes Depending on the token, there may be limits on the length of the key components. See PKCS #1 for more information on RSA keys. Tokens vary in what they actually store for RSA private keys. Some tokens store all of the above attributes, which can assist in performing rapid RSA computations. Other tokens might store only the '''CKA_MODULUS''' and '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT''' values. Because of this, Cryptoki is flexible in dealing with RSA private key objects. When a token generates an RSA private key, it stores whichever of the fields in Table 3 it keeps track of. Later, if an application asks for the values of the key’s various attributes, Cryptoki supplies values only for attributes whose values it can obtain (''i.e.'', if Cryptoki is asked for the value of an attribute it cannot obtain, the request fails). Note that a Cryptoki implementation may or may not be able and/or willing to supply various attributes of RSA private keys which are not actually stored on the token. ''E.g.'', if a particular token stores values only for the '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIME_1''', and '''CKA_PRIME_2''' attributes, then Cryptoki is certainly ''able'' to report values for all the attributes above (since they can all be computed efficiently from these three values). However, a Cryptoki implementation may or may not actually do this extra computation. The only attributes from Table 3 for which a Cryptoki implementation is ''required'' to be able to return values are '''CKA_MODULUS''' and '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT'''. If an RSA private key object is created on a token, and more attributes from Table 3 are supplied to the object creation call than are supported by the token, the extra attributes are likely to be thrown away. If an attempt is made to create an RSA private key object on a token with insufficient attributes for that particular token, then the object creation call fails and returns CKR_TEMPLATE_INCOMPLETE. Note that when generating an RSA private key, there is no '''CKA_MODULUS_BITS''' attribute specified. This is because RSA private keys are only generated as part of an RSA key ''pair'', and the '''CKA_MODULUS_BITS''' attribute for the pair is specified in the template for the RSA public key. The following is a sample template for creating an RSA private key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PRIVATE_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_RSA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An RSA private key object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE id[] = {123}; CK_BYTE modulus[] = {...}; CK_BYTE publicExponent[] = {...}; CK_BYTE privateExponent[] = {...}; CK_BYTE prime1[] = {...}; CK_BYTE prime2[] = {...}; CK_BYTE exponent1[] = {...}; CK_BYTE exponent2[] = {...}; CK_BYTE coefficient[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_ID, id, sizeof(id)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_DECRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_SIGN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_MODULUS, modulus, sizeof(modulus)}, {CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT, publicExponent, sizeof(publicExponent)}, {CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT, privateExponent, sizeof(privateExponent)}, {CKA_PRIME_1, prime1, sizeof(prime1)}, {CKA_PRIME_2, prime2, sizeof(prime2)}, {CKA_EXPONENT_1, exponent1, sizeof(exponent1)}, {CKA_EXPONENT_2, exponent2, sizeof(exponent2)}, {CKA_COEFFICIENT, coefficient, sizeof(coefficient)} }; === PKCS #1 RSA key pair generation === The PKCS #1 RSA key pair generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_RSA_PKCS_KEY_PAIR_GEN''', is a key pair generation mechanism based on the RSA public-key cryptosystem, as defined in PKCS #1. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates RSA public/private key pairs with a particular modulus length in bits and public exponent, as specified in the '''CKA_MODULUS_BITS''' and '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''' attributes of the template for the public key. The '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''' may be omitted in which case the mechanism shall supply the public exponent attribute using the default value of 0x10001 (65537). Specific implementations may use a random value or an alternative default if 0x10001 cannot be used by the token. Note: Implementations strictly compliant with version 2.11 or prior versions may generate an error if this attribute is omitted from the template. Experience has shown that many implementations of 2.11 and prior did allow the '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''' attribute to be omitted from the template, and behaved as described above. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_MODULUS''', and '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT '''attributes to the new public key. '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''' will be copied from the template if supplied. '''CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT''' shall be returned if the implementation cannot use the supplied exponent value. It contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''' and '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attributes to the new private key; it may also contribute some of the following attributes to the new private key: '''CKA_MODULUS''', '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIME_1''', '''CKA_PRIME_2''', '''CKA_EXPONENT_1''', '''CKA_EXPONENT_2''', '''CKA_COEFFICIENT'''. Other attributes supported by the RSA public and private key types (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the keys support) may also be specified in the templates for the keys, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of RSA modulus sizes, in bits. === X9.31 RSA key pair generation === The X9.31 RSA key pair generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_RSA_X9_31_KEY_PAIR_GEN''', is a key pair generation mechanism based on the RSA public-key cryptosystem, as defined in X9.31. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates RSA public/private key pairs with a particular modulus length in bits and public exponent, as specified in the '''CKA_MODULUS_BITS''' and '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''' attributes of the template for the public key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_MODULUS''', and '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT '''attributes to the new public key. It contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''' and '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attributes to the new private key; it may also contribute some of the following attributes to the new private key: '''CKA_MODULUS''', '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIME_1''', '''CKA_PRIME_2''', '''CKA_EXPONENT_1''', '''CKA_EXPONENT_2''', '''CKA_COEFFICIENT'''. Other attributes supported by the RSA public and private key types (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the keys support) may also be specified in the templates for the keys, or else are assigned default initial values. Unlike the '''CKM_RSA_PKCS_KEY_PAIR_GEN''' mechanism, this mechanism is guaranteed to generate ''p'' and ''q'' values, '''CKA_PRIME_1''' and '''CKA_PRIME_2''' respectively, that meet the strong primes requirement of X9.31. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of RSA modulus sizes, in bits. === PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA === The PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA mechanism, denoted '''CKM_RSA_PKCS''', is a multi-purpose mechanism based on the RSA public-key cryptosystem and the block formats initially defined in PKCS #1 v1.5. It supports single-part encryption and decryption; single-part signatures and verification with and without message recovery; key wrapping; and key unwrapping. This mechanism corresponds only to the part of PKCS #1 v1.5 that involves RSA; it does not compute a message digest or a DigestInfo encoding as specified for the md2withRSAEncryption and md5withRSAEncryption algorithms in PKCS #1 v1.5 . This mechanism does not have a parameter. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key of appropriate length. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every appropriate-length secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the “input” to the encryption operation is the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped; similarly for unwrapping. The mechanism does not wrap the key type or any other information about the key, except the key length; the application must convey these separately. In particular, the mechanism contributes only the '''CKA_CLASS''' and '''CKA_VALUE''' (and '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''', if the key has it) attributes to the recovered key during unwrapping; other attributes must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of the data are summarized in the following table. For encryption, decryption, signatures and signature verification, the input and output data may begin at the same location in memory. In the table, ''k'' is the length in bytes of the RSA modulus.

It supports single-part signature generation and verification without message recovery. This mechanism corresponds only to the part of PKCS #1 that involves block formatting and RSA, given a hash value; it does not compute a hash value on the message to be signed.

This mechanism processes only byte strings, whereas ISO/IEC 9796 operates on bit strings. Accordingly, the following transformations are performed: * Data is converted between byte and bit string formats by interpreting the most-significant bit of the leading byte of the byte string as the leftmost bit of the bit string, and the least-significant bit of the trailing byte of the byte string as the rightmost bit of the bit string (this assumes the length in bits of the data is a multiple of 8). * A signature is converted from a bit string to a byte string by padding the bit string on the left with 0 to 7 zero bits so that the resulting length in bits is a multiple of 8, and converting the resulting bit string as above; it is converted from a byte string to a bit string by converting the byte string as above, and removing bits from the left so that the resulting length in bits is the same as that of the RSA modulus. This mechanism does not have a parameter. Constraints on key types and the length of input and output data are summarized in the following table.

It supports single-part encryption and decryption; single-part signatures and verification with and without message recovery; key wrapping; and key unwrapping. All these operations are based on so-called “raw” RSA, as assumed in X.509. “Raw” RSA as defined here encrypts a byte string by converting it to an integer, most-significant byte first, applying “raw” RSA exponentiation, and converting the result to a byte string, most-significant byte first. The input string, considered as an integer, must be less than the modulus; the output string is also less than the modulus. This mechanism does not have a parameter. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key of appropriate length. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every appropriate-length secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the “input” to the encryption operation is the value of the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the key that is wrapped; similarly for unwrapping. The mechanism does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately, and supply them when unwrapping the key. Unfortunately, X.509 does not specify how to perform padding for RSA encryption. For this mechanism, padding should be performed by prepending plaintext data with 0-valued bytes. In effect, to encrypt the sequence of plaintext bytes b1 b2 … bn (n  ''k''), Cryptoki forms P=2n-1b1+2n-2b2+…+bn. This number must be less than the RSA modulus. The ''k''-byte ciphertext (''k'' is the length in bytes of the RSA modulus) is produced by raising P to the RSA public exponent modulo the RSA modulus. Decryption of a ''k''-byte ciphertext C is accomplished by raising C to the RSA private exponent modulo the RSA modulus, and returning the resulting value as a sequence of exactly ''k'' bytes. If the resulting plaintext is to be used to produce an unwrapped key, then however many bytes are specified in the template for the length of the key are taken ''from the end'' of this sequence of bytes. Technically, the above procedures may differ very slightly from certain details of what is specified in X.509. Executing cryptographic operations using this mechanism can result in the error returns CKR_DATA_INVALID (if plaintext is supplied which has the same length as the RSA modulus and is numerically at least as large as the modulus) and CKR_ENCRYPTED_DATA_INVALID (if ciphertext is supplied which has the same length as the RSA modulus and is numerically at least as large as the modulus). Constraints on key types and the length of input and output data are summarized in the following table. In the table, ''k'' is the length in bytes of the RSA modulus.

This mechanism applies the header and padding fields of the hash encapsulation. The trailer field must be applied by the application. This mechanism processes only byte strings, whereas ANSI X9.31 operates on bit strings. Accordingly, the following transformations are performed: * Data is converted between byte and bit string formats by interpreting the most-significant bit of the leading byte of the byte string as the leftmost bit of the bit string, and the least-significant bit of the trailing byte of the byte string as the rightmost bit of the bit string (this assumes the length in bits of the data is a multiple of 8). * A signature is converted from a bit string to a byte string by padding the bit string on the left with 0 to 7 zero bits so that the resulting length in bits is a multiple of 8, and converting the resulting bit string as above; it is converted from a byte string to a bit string by converting the byte string as above, and removing bits from the left so that the resulting length in bits is the same as that of the RSA modulus.

The operations performed are as described initially in PKCS #1 v1.5 with the object identifier md2WithRSAEncryption, and as in the scheme RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 in the current version of PKCS #1, where the underlying hash function is MD2. Similarly, the PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA signature with MD5 mechanism, denoted '''CKM_MD5_RSA_PKCS''', performs the same operations described in PKCS #1 with the object identifier md5WithRSAEncryption. The PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA signature with SHA-1 mechanism, denoted '''CKM_SHA1_RSA_PKCS''', performs the same operations, except that it uses the hash function SHA-1 with object identifier sha1WithRSAEncryption.

It supports single-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping. This mechanism does not have a parameter. It differs from the standard PKCS#1 v1.5 RSA encryption mechanism in that the plaintext is wrapped in a TPM_BOUND_DATA structure before being submitted to the PKCS#1 v1.5 encryption process. On encryption, the version field of the TPM_BOUND_DATA structure must contain 0x01, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00. On decryption, any structure of the form 0x01, 0x01, 0xXX, 0xYY may be accepted. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key of appropriate length. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every appropriate-length secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the “input” to the encryption operation is the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped; similarly for unwrapping. The mechanism does not wrap the key type or any other information about the key, except the key length; the application must convey these separately. In particular, the mechanism contributes only the '''CKA_CLASS''' and '''CKA_VALUE''' (and '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''', if the key has it) attributes to the recovered key during unwrapping; other attributes must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of the data are summarized in the following table. For encryption and decryption, the input and output data may begin at the same location in memory. In the table, ''k'' is the length in bytes of the RSA modulus. '''Table 215, TPM 1.1 PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It supports single-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping. This mechanism does not have a parameter. It differs from the standard PKCS#1 OAEP RSA encryption mechanism in that the plaintext is wrapped in a TPM_BOUND_DATA structure before being submitted to the encryption process and that all of the values of the parameters that are passed to a standard CKM_RSA_PKCS_OAEP operation are fixed. On encryption, the version field of the TPM_BOUND_DATA structure must contain 0x01, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00. On decryption, any structure of the form 0x01, 0x01, 0xXX, 0xYY may be accepted. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key of appropriate length. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every appropriate-length secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the “input” to the encryption operation is the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped; similarly for unwrapping. The mechanism does not wrap the key type or any other information about the key, except the key length; the application must convey these separately.

See FIPS PUB 186-2 for more information on DSA keys. Note that when generating a DSA private key, the DSA domain parameters are ''not'' specified in the key’s template. This is because DSA private keys are only generated as part of a DSA key ''pair'', and the DSA domain parameters for the pair are specified in the template for the DSA public key. The following is a sample template for creating a DSA private key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PRIVATE_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_DSA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A DSA private key object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE id[] = {123}; CK_BYTE prime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE subprime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE base[] = {...}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_ID, id, sizeof(id)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_SIGN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_PRIME, prime, sizeof(prime)}, {CKA_SUBPRIME, subprime, sizeof(subprime)}, {CKA_BASE, base, sizeof(base)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === DSA domain parameter objects === DSA domain parameter objects (object class '''CKO_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS, '''key type '''CKK_DSA''') hold DSA domain parameters.

This mechanism does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates DSA public/private key pairs with a particular prime, subprime and base, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''', and '''CKA_BASE''' attributes of the template for the public key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new public key and the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''', '''CKA_BASE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new private key. Other attributes supported by the DSA public and private key types (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the keys support) may also be specified in the templates for the keys, or else are assigned default initial values.

This mechanism does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates DSA domain parameters with a particular prime length in bits, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME_BITS''' attribute of the template.

An EC key in Cryptoki contains information about which variety of EC it is suited for. It is preferable that a Cryptoki library, which can perform EC mechanisms, be capable of performing operations with the two varieties of EC, however this is not required. The '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure '''CKF_EC_F_P''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting EC keys over ''Fp'' whereas the '''CKF_EC_F_2M''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting EC keys over ''F''2''m''. A Cryptoki library that can perform EC mechanisms must set either or both of these flags for each EC mechanism. In these specifications there are also three representation methods to define the domain parameters for an EC key. Only the '''ecParameters '''and the '''namedCurve''' choices are supported in Cryptoki. The '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure '''CKF_EC_ECPARAMETERS''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting the '''ecParameters''' choice whereas the '''CKF_EC_NAMEDCURVE''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting the '''namedCurve''' choice. A Cryptoki library that can perform EC mechanisms must set either or both of these flags for each EC mechanism. In these specifications, an EC public key (i.e. EC point ''Q'') or the base point ''G'' when the '''ecParameters '''choice is used can be represented as an octet string of the uncompressed form or the compressed form. The '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure '''CKF_EC_UNCOMPRESS''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting the uncompressed form whereas the''' CKF_EC_COMPRESS''' flag identifies a Cryptoki library supporting the compressed form. A Cryptoki library that can perform EC mechanisms must set either or both of these flags for each EC mechanism. Note that an implementation of a Cryptoki library supporting EC with only one variety, one representation of domain parameters or one form may encounter difficulties achieving interoperability with other implementations. If an attempt to create, generate, derive, or unwrap an EC key of an unsupported variety (or of an unsupported size of a supported variety) is made, that attempt should fail with the error code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT. If an attempt to create, generate, derive, or unwrap an EC key with invalid or of an unsupported representation of domain parameters is made, that attempt should fail with the error code CKR_DOMAIN_PARAMS_INVALID. If an attempt to create, generate, derive, or unwrap an EC key of an unsupported form is made, that attempt should fail with the error code CKR_TEMPLATE_INCONSISTENT. === EC Signatures === For the purposes of these mechanisms, an ECDSA signature is an octet string of even length which is at most two times ''nLen'' octets, where ''nLen ''is the length in octets of the base point order ''n''. The signature octets correspond to the concatenation of the ECDSA values ''r'' and ''s'', both represented as an octet string of equal length of at most ''nLen'' with the most significant byte first. If ''r ''and ''s ''have different octet length, the shorter of both must be padded with leading zero octets such that both have the same octet length. Loosely spoken, the first half of the signature is ''r'' and the second half is ''s''. For signatures created by a token, the resulting signature is always of length 2''nLen''. For signatures passed to a token for verification, the signature may have a shorter length but must be composed as specified before. If the length of the hash value is larger than the bit length of ''n'', only the leftmost bits of the hash up to the length of ''n'' will be used. Any truncation is done by the token. Note: For applications, it is recommended to encode the signature as an octet string of length two times ''nLen ''if possible. This ensures that the application works with PKCS#11 modules which have been implemented based on an older version of this document. Older versions required all signatures to have length two times ''nLen''. It may be impossible to encode the signature with the maximum length of two times ''nLen'' if the application just gets the integer values of ''r'' and ''s ''(i.e. without leading zeros), but does not know the base point order ''n'', because ''r'' and ''s'' can have any value between zero and the base point order ''n''. === Definitions === This section defines the key type “CKK_ECDSA” and “CKK_EC” for type CK_KEY_TYPE as used in the CKA_KEY_TYPE attribute of key objects.

The use of a '''namedCurve''' is recommended over the choice '''ecParameters'''. The choice '''implicitlyCA''' must not be used in Cryptoki. The following is a sample template for creating an EC (ECDSA) public key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PUBLIC_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_EC; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An EC public key object”; CK_BYTE ecParams[] = {...}; CK_BYTE ecPoint[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_EC_PARAMS, ecParams, sizeof(ecParams)}, {CKA_EC_POINT, ecPoint, sizeof(ecPoint)} }; === Elliptic curve private key objects === EC (also related to ECDSA) private key objects (object class '''CKO_PRIVATE_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_EC''' or '''CKK_ECDSA''') hold EC private keys. See Section 6.3 for more information about EC. The following table defines the EC private key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 224, Elliptic Curve Private Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_EC_PARAMS1,4,6 (CKA_ECDSA_PARAMS) | Byte array | DER-encoding of an ANSI X9.62 Parameters value |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Big integer | ANSI X9.62 private value ''d'' |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_EC_PARAMS '''or''' CKA_ECDSA_PARAMS''' attribute value is known as the “EC domain parameters” and is defined in ANSI X9.62 as a choice of three parameter representation methods with the following syntax: Parameters ::= CHOICE { ecParametersECParameters, namedCurveCURVES.&id({CurveNames}), implicitlyCANULL } This allows detailed specification of all required values using choice '''ecParameters''', the use of a '''namedCurve''' as an object identifier substitute for a particular set of elliptic curve domain parameters, or '''implicitlyCA''' to indicate that the domain parameters are explicitly defined elsewhere. The use of a '''namedCurve''' is recommended over the choice '''ecParameters'''. The choice '''implicitlyCA''' must not be used in Cryptoki. Note that when generating an EC private key, the EC domain parameters are ''not'' specified in the key’s template. This is because EC private keys are only generated as part of an EC key ''pair'', and the EC domain parameters for the pair are specified in the template for the EC public key. The following is a sample template for creating an EC (ECDSA) private key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PRIVATE_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_EC; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An EC private key object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE id[] = {123}; CK_BYTE ecParams[] = {...}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_ID, id, sizeof(id)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_DERIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_EC_PARAMS, ecParams, sizeof(ecParams)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === Elliptic curve key pair generation === The EC (also related to ECDSA) key pair generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_EC_KEY_PAIR_GEN''' or '''CKM_ECDSA_KEY_PAIR_GEN''', is a key pair generation mechanism for EC. This mechanism does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates EC public/private key pairs with particular EC domain parameters, as specified in the '''CKA_EC_PARAMS''' or '''CKA_ECDSA_PARAMS''' attribute of the template for the public key. Note that this version of Cryptoki does not include a mechanism for generating these EC domain parameters. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_EC_POINT''' attributes to the new public key and the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_EC_PARAMS''' or '''CKA_ECDSA_PARAMS''' and '''CKA_CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new private key. Other attributes supported by the EC public and private key types (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the keys support) may also be specified in the templates for the keys, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the minimum and maximum supported number of bits in the field sizes, respectively. For example, if a Cryptoki library supports only ECDSA using a field of characteristic 2 which has between 2200 and 2300 elements, then ''ulMinKeySize'' = 201 and ''ulMaxKeySize'' = 301 (when written in binary notation, the number 2200 consists of a 1 bit followed by 200 0 bits. It is therefore a 201-bit number. Similarly, 2300 is a 301-bit number). === ECDSA without hashing === Refer section 6.3.1 for signature encoding. The ECDSA without hashing mechanism, denoted '''CKM_ECDSA''', is a mechanism for single-part signatures and verification for ECDSA. (This mechanism corresponds only to the part of ECDSA that processes the hash value, which should not be longer than 1024 bits; it does not compute the hash value.) This mechanism does not have a parameter. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 225, ECDSA: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" !

For example, if a Cryptoki library supports only ECDSA using a field of characteristic 2 which has between 2200 and 2300 elements (inclusive), then ''ulMinKeySize'' = 201 and ''ulMaxKeySize'' = 301 (when written in binary notation, the number 2200 consists of a 1 bit followed by 200 0 bits.

For example, if a Cryptoki library supports only ECDSA using a field of characteristic 2 which has between 2200 and 2300 elements, then ''ulMinKeySize'' = 201 and ''ulMaxKeySize'' = 301 (when written in binary notation, the number 2200 consists of a 1 bit followed by 200 0 bits. It is therefore a 201-bit number. Similarly, 2300 is a 301-bit number). === EC mechanism parameters === * '''CK_EC_KDF_TYPE, CK_EC_KDF_TYPE_PTR''' '''CK_EC_KDF_TYPE''' is used to indicate the Key Derivation Function (KDF) applied to derive keying data from a shared secret. The key derivation function will be used by the EC key agreement schemes. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_EC_KDF_TYPE; The following table lists the defined functions. '''Table 227, EC: Key Derivation Functions''' {| class="prettytable" | '''Source Identifier''' |- | CKD_NULL |- | CKD_SHA1_KDF |- | CKD_SHA224_KDF |- | CKD_SHA256_KDF |- | CKD_SHA384_KDF |- | CKD_SHA512_KDF |} The key derivation function '''CKD_NULL''' produces a raw shared secret value without applying any key derivation function whereas the key derivation function '''CKD_SHA1_KDF''', which is''' '''based on SHA-1, derives keying data from the shared secret value as defined in ANSI X9.63.

A token MAY, in addition, support accepting this value as a DER-encoded ECPoint (as per section E.6 of [ANSI X9.62]) i.e. the same as a CKA_EC_POINT encoding. The calling application is responsible for converting the offered public key to the compressed or uncompressed forms of these encodings if the token does not support the offered form.'' '' With the key derivation function '''CKD_NULL''', ''pSharedData'' must be NULL and ''ulSharedDataLen'' must be zero. With the key derivation function '''CKD_SHA1_KDF''', an optional ''pSharedData'' may be supplied, which consists of some data shared by the two parties intending to share the shared secret. Otherwise, ''pSharedData'' must be NULL and ''ulSharedDataLen'' must be zero. '''CK_ECDH1_DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_ECDH1_DERIVE_PARAMS'''. * '''CK_ ECMQV _DERIVE_PARAMS, CK_ ECMQV _DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_ ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS''' is a structure that provides the parameters to the '''CKM_ECMQV_DERIVE''' key derivation mechanism, where each party contributes two key pairs. The structure is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS { CK_EC_KDF_TYPE kdf; CK_ULONG ulSharedDataLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pSharedData; CK_ULONG ulPublicDataLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pPublicData; CK_ULONG ulPrivateDataLen; CK_OBJECT_HANDLE hPrivateData; CK_ULONG ulPublicDataLen2; CK_BYTE_PTR pPublicData2; CK_OBJECT_HANDLE publicKey; } CK_ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''kdf''key derivation function used on the shared secret value ''ulSharedDataLen''the length in bytes of the shared info ''pSharedData''some data shared between the two parties ''ulPublicDataLen''the length in bytes of the other party’s first EC public key ''pPublicData''pointer to other party’s first EC public key value.

Otherwise, ''pSharedData'' must be NULL and ''ulSharedDataLen'' must be zero. '''CK_ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS'''. === Elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key derivation === The elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_ECDH1_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on the Diffie-Hellman version of the elliptic curve key agreement scheme, as defined in ANSI X9.63, where each party contributes one key pair all using the same EC domain parameters. It has a parameter, a '''CK_ECDH1_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.) The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the minimum and maximum supported number of bits in the field sizes, respectively. For example, if a Cryptoki library supports only EC using a field of characteristic 2 which has between 2200 and 2300 elements, then ''ulMinKeySize'' = 201 and ''ulMaxKeySize'' = 301 (when written in binary notation, the number 2200 consists of a 1 bit followed by 200 0 bits. It is therefore a 201-bit number. Similarly, 2300 is a 301-bit number). === Elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman with cofactor key derivation === The elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) with cofactor key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_ECDH1_COFACTOR_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on the cofactor Diffie-Hellman version of the elliptic curve key agreement scheme, as defined in ANSI X9.63, where each party contributes one key pair all using the same EC domain parameters. Cofactor multiplication is computationally efficient and helps to prevent security problems like small group attacks. It has a parameter, a '''CK_ECDH1_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.)

If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute.

It is therefore a 201-bit number. Similarly, 2300 is a 301-bit number). === Elliptic curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone key derivation === The elliptic curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (ECMQV) key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_ECMQV_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based the MQV version of the elliptic curve key agreement scheme, as defined in ANSI X9.63, where each party contributes two key pairs all using the same EC domain parameters. It has a parameter, a '''CK_ECMQV_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template.

This is what PKCS #3 calls “phase I”. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates Diffie-Hellman public/private key pairs with a particular prime and base, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME''' and '''CKA_BASE''' attributes of the template for the public key. If the '''CKA_VALUE_BITS''' attribute of the private key is specified, the mechanism limits the length in bits of the private value, as described in PKCS #3. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new public key and the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_BASE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' (and the '''CKA_VALUE_BITS''' attribute, if it is not already provided in the template) attributes to the new private key; other attributes required by the Diffie-Hellman public and private key types must be specified in the templates. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits. === PKCS #3 Diffie-Hellman domain parameter generation === The PKCS #3 Diffie-Hellman domain parameter generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_DH_PKCS_PARAMETER_GEN''', is a domain parameter generation mechanism based on Diffie-Hellman key agreement, as defined in PKCS #3. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates Diffie-Hellman domain parameters with a particular prime length in bits, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME_BITS''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_BASE, '''and''' CKA_PRIME_BITS''' attributes to the new object. Other attributes supported by the Diffie-Hellman domain parameter types may also be specified in the template, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits. === PKCS #3 Diffie-Hellman key derivation === The PKCS #3 Diffie-Hellman key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_DH_PKCS_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on Diffie-Hellman key agreement, as defined in PKCS #3. This is what PKCS #3 calls “phase II”. It has a parameter, which is the public value of the other party in the key agreement protocol, represented as a Cryptoki “Big integer” (''i.e.'', a sequence of bytes, most-significant byte first). This mechanism derives a secret key from a Diffie-Hellman private key and the public value of the other party. It computes a Diffie-Hellman secret value from the public value and private key according to PKCS #3, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.) The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractabilityNote that the rules regarding the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes have changed in version 2.11 to match the policy used by other key derivation mechanisms such as '''CKM_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE'''. : * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman mechanism parameters === * '''CK_X9_42_DH_KDF_TYPE, CK_X9_42_DH_KDF_TYPE_PTR''' '''CK_X9_42_DH_KDF_TYPE''' is used to indicate the Key Derivation Function (KDF) applied to derive keying data from a shared secret.

'''CK_X9_42_MQV_DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_X9_42_MQV_DERIVE_PARAMS'''. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman key pair generation === The X9.42 Diffie-Hellman key pair generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_X9_42_DH_KEY_PAIR_GEN''', is a key pair generation mechanism based on Diffie-Hellman key agreement, as defined in the ANSI X9.42 standard. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates X9.42 Diffie-Hellman public/private key pairs with a particular prime, base and subprime, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_BASE''' and '''CKA_SUBPRIME''' attributes of the template for the public key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new public key and the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_BASE''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new private key; other attributes required by the X9.42 Diffie-Hellman public and private key types must be specified in the templates. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of X9.42 Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits, for the '''CKA_PRIME''' attribute. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameter generation === The X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameter generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_X9_42_DH_PARAMETER_GEN''', is a domain parameters generation mechanism based on X9.42 Diffie-Hellman key agreement, as defined in the ANSI X9.42 standard. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameters with particular prime and subprime length in bits, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME_BITS''' and '''CKA_SUBPRIME_BITS''' attributes of the template for the domain parameters. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_BASE, CKA_SUBPRIME''', '''CKA_PRIME_BITS''' and''' CKA_SUBPRIME_BITS''' attributes to the new object. Other attributes supported by the X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameter types may also be specified in the template for the domain parameters, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of X9.42 Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman key derivation === The X9.42 Diffie-Hellman key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_X9_42_DH_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on the Diffie-Hellman key agreement scheme, as defined in the ANSI X9.42 standard, where each party contributes one key pair, all using the same X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameters. It has a parameter, a '''CK_X9_42_DH1_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.) The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. Note that in order to validate this mechanism it may be required to use the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute as the key of a general-length MAC mechanism (e.g. '''CKM_SHA_1_HMAC_GENERAL''') over some test data. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of X9.42 Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits, for the '''CKA_PRIME''' attribute. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman hybrid key derivation === The X9.42 Diffie-Hellman hybrid key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_X9_42_DH_HYBRID_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on the Diffie-Hellman hybrid key agreement scheme, as defined in the ANSI X9.42 standard, where each party contributes two key pair, all using the same X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameters. It has a parameter, a '''CK_X9_42_DH2_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.)

If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of X9.42 Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits, for the '''CKA_PRIME''' attribute. === X9.42 Diffie-Hellman Menezes-Qu-Vanstone key derivation === The X9.42 Diffie-Hellman Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (MQV) key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_X9_42_MQV_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based the MQV scheme, as defined in the ANSI X9.42 standard, where each party contributes two key pairs, all using the same X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameters. It has a parameter, a '''CK_X9_42_MQV_DERIVE_PARAMS '''structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.)

If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of X9.42 Diffie-Hellman prime sizes, in bits, for the '''CKA_PRIME''' attribute. == Wrapping/unwrapping private keys == Cryptoki Versions 2.01 and up allow the use of secret keys for wrapping and unwrapping RSA private keys, Diffie-Hellman private keys, X9.42 Diffie-Hellman private keys, EC (also related to ECDSA) private keys and DSA private keys. For wrapping, a private key is BER-encoded according to PKCS #8’s PrivateKeyInfo ASN.1 type. PKCS #8 requires an algorithm identifier for the type of the private key. The object identifiers for the required algorithm identifiers are as follows: rsaEncryption OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { pkcs-1 1 } dhKeyAgreement OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { pkcs-3 1 } dhpublicnumber OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) ansi-x942(10046) number-type(2) 1 } id-ecPublicKey OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) ansi-x9-62(10045) publicKeyType(2) 1 } id-dsa OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) member-body(2) us(840) x9-57(10040) x9cm(4) 1 } where pkcs-1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) member-body(2) US(840) rsadsi(113549) pkcs(1) 1 } pkcs-3 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) member-body(2) US(840) rsadsi(113549) pkcs(1) 3 } These parameters for the algorithm identifiers have the following types, respectively: NULL DHParameter ::= SEQUENCE { primeINTEGER, -- p baseINTEGER, -- g privateValueLengthINTEGER OPTIONAL } DomainParameters ::= SEQUENCE { primeINTEGER, -- p baseINTEGER, -- g subprimeINTEGER, -- q cofactorINTEGER OPTIONAL, -- j validationParmsValidationParms OPTIONAL } ValidationParms ::= SEQUENCE { SeedBIT STRING, -- seed PGenCounterINTEGER -- parameter verification } Parameters ::= CHOICE { ecParametersECParameters, namedCurveCURVES.&id({CurveNames}), implicitlyCANULL } Dss-Parms ::= SEQUENCE { p INTEGER, q INTEGER, g INTEGER } For the X9.42 Diffie-Hellman domain parameters, the '''cofactor''' and the '''validationParms''' optional fields should not be used when wrapping or unwrapping X9.42 Diffie-Hellman private keys since their values are not stored within the token. For the EC domain parameters, the use of '''namedCurve''' is recommended over the choice '''ecParameters'''. The choice '''implicitlyCA''' must not be used in Cryptoki. Within the PrivateKeyInfo type: * RSA private keys are BER-encoded according to PKCS #1’s RSAPrivateKey ASN.1 type. This type requires values to be present for ''all'' the attributes specific to Cryptoki’s RSA private key objects. In other words, if a Cryptoki library does not have values for an RSA private key’s '''CKA_MODULUS''', '''CKA_PUBLIC_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIVATE_EXPONENT''', '''CKA_PRIME_1''', '''CKA_PRIME_2''', '''CKA_EXPONENT_1''', '''CKA_EXPONENT2''', and '''CKA_COEFFICIENT''' values, it cannot create an RSAPrivateKey BER-encoding of the key, and so it cannot prepare it for wrapping. * Diffie-Hellman private keys are represented as BER-encoded ASN.1 type INTEGER. * X9.42 Diffie-Hellman private keys are represented as BER-encoded ASN.1 type INTEGER. * EC (also related with ECDSA) private keys are BER-encoded according to SECG SEC 1 ECPrivateKey ASN.1 type: ECPrivateKey ::= SEQUENCE { VersionINTEGER { ecPrivkeyVer1(1) } (ecPrivkeyVer1), privateKeyOCTET STRING, parameters[0] Parameters OPTIONAL, publicKey[1] BIT STRING OPTIONAL } Since the EC domain parameters are placed in the PKCS #8’s privateKeyAlgorithm field, the optional '''parameters''' field in an ECPrivateKey must be omitted. A Cryptoki application must be able to unwrap an ECPrivateKey that contains the optional '''publicKey''' field; however, what is done with this '''publicKey''' field is outside the scope of Cryptoki. * DSA private keys are represented as BER-encoded ASN.1 type INTEGER. Once a private key has been BER-encoded as a PrivateKeyInfo type, the resulting string of bytes is encrypted with the secret key. This encryption must be done in CBC mode with PKCS padding. Unwrapping a wrapped private key undoes the above procedure. The CBC-encrypted ciphertext is decrypted, and the PKCS padding is removed. The data thereby obtained are parsed as a PrivateKeyInfo type, and the wrapped key is produced. An error will result if the original wrapped key does not decrypt properly, or if the decrypted unpadded data does not parse properly, or its type does not match the key type specified in the template for the new key. The unwrapping mechanism contributes only those attributes specified in the PrivateKeyInfo type to the newly-unwrapped key; other attributes must be specified in the template, or will take their default values. Earlier drafts of PKCS #11 Version 2.0 and Version 2.01 used the object identifier DSA OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { algorithm 12 } algorithm OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { iso(1) identifier-organization(3) oiw(14) secsig(3) algorithm(2) } with associated parameters DSAParameters ::= SEQUENCE { prime1 INTEGER, -- modulus p prime2 INTEGER, -- modulus q base INTEGER -- base g } for wrapping DSA private keys. Note that although the two structures for holding DSA domain parameters appear identical when instances of them are encoded, the two corresponding object identifiers are different. == Generic secret key == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

Mechanisms: CKM_GENERIC_SECRET_KEY_GEN === Generic secret key objects === Generic secret key objects (object class '''CKO_SECRET_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''') hold generic secret keys. These keys do not support encryption or decryption; however, other keys can be derived from them and they can be used in HMAC operations. The following table defines the generic secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: These key types are used in several of the mechanisms described in this section. '''Table 235, Generic Secret Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (arbitrary length) |- | CKA_VALUE_LEN2,3 | CK_ULONG | Length in bytes of key value |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The following is a sample template for creating a generic secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_GENERIC_SECRET; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A generic secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_DERIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; CKA_CHECK_VALUE: The value of this attribute is derived from the key object by taking the first three bytes of the SHA-1 hash of the generic secret key object’s CKA_VALUE attribute. === Generic secret key generation === The generic secret key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_GENERIC_SECRET_KEY_GEN''', is used to generate generic secret keys. The generated keys take on any attributes provided in the template passed to the '''C_GenerateKey''' call, and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute specifies the length of the key to be generated. It does not have a parameter. The template supplied must specify a value for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN '''attribute. If the template specifies an object type and a class, they must have the following values: '''CK_OBJECT_CLASS''' = '''CKO_SECRET_KEY'''; '''CK_KEY_TYPE''' = '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET'''; For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure specify the supported range of key sizes, in bits. == HMAC mechanisms == Refer '''RFC2104''' and '''FIPS 198''' for HMAC algorithm description.. The HMAC secret key shall correspond to the PKCS11 generic secret key type or the mechanism specific key types (see mechanism definition). Such keys, for use with HMAC operations can be created using C_CreateObject or C_GenerateKey. The RFC also specifies test vectors for the various hash function based HMAC mechanisms described in the respective hash mechanism descriptions. The RFC should be consulted to obtain these test vectors. == AES == For the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) see [FIPS PUB 197]. {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (16, 24, or 32 bytes) |- | CKA_VALUE_LEN2,3,6 | CK_ULONG | Length in bytes of key value |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The following is a sample template for creating an AES secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_AES; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An AES secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; CKA_CHECK_VALUE: The value of this attribute is derived from the key object by taking the first three bytes of the ECB encryption of a single block of null (0x00) bytes, using the default cipher associated with the key type of the secret key object. === AES key generation === The AES key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_AES_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for NIST’s Advanced Encryption Standard. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates AES keys with a particular length in bytes, as specified in the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template for the key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the AES key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of AES key sizes, in bytes. === AES-ECB === AES-ECB, denoted '''CKM_AES_ECB''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on NIST Advanced Encryption Standard and electronic codebook mode. It does not have a parameter. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to block size minus one null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of the block size. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately. For unwrapping, the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 237, AES-ECB: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It has a parameter, a 16-byte initialization vector. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to block size minus one null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of the block size. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately.

It has a parameter, a 16-byte initialization vector. The PKCS padding in this mechanism allows the length of the plaintext value to be recovered from the ciphertext value. Therefore, when unwrapping keys with this mechanism, no value should be specified for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. In addition to being able to wrap and unwrap secret keys, this mechanism can wrap and unwrap RSA, Diffie-Hellman, X9.42 Diffie-Hellman, EC (also related to ECDSA) and DSA private keys (see Section 6.5 for details). The entries in the table below for data length constraints when wrapping and unwrapping keys do not apply to wrapping and unwrapping private keys.

It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_AES_CTR_PARAMS { CK_ULONG ulCounterBits; CK_BYTE cb[16]; } CK_AES_CTR_PARAMS; ulCounterBits specifies the number of bits in the counter block (cb) that shall be incremented. This number shall be such that 0 < ''ulCounterBits'' <= 128. For any values outside this range the mechanism shall return '''CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID'''. It's up to the caller to initialize all of the bits in the counter block including the counter bits. The counter bits are the least significant bits of the counter block (cb). They are a big-endian value usually starting with 1. The rest of ‘cb’ is for the nonce, and maybe an optional IV. E.g. as defined in [RFC 3686]: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Nonce | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Initialization Vector (IV) | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Block Counter | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ This construction permits each packet to consist of up to 232-1 blocks = 4,294,967,295 blocks = 68,719,476,720 octets. '''CK_AES_CTR''' '''_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_AES_CTR''' '''_PARAMS'''. === AES with Counter Encryption / Decryption === Generic AES counter mode is described in NIST Special Publication 800-38A and in RFC 3686. These describe encryption using a counter block which may include a nonce to guarantee uniqueness of the counter block. Since the nonce is not incremented, the mechanism parameter must specify the number of counter bits in the counter block. The block counter is incremented by 1 after each block of plaintext is processed. There is no support for any other increment functions in this mechanism. If an attempt to encrypt/decrypt is made which will cause an overflow of the counter block’s counter bits, then the mechanism shall return '''CKR_DATA_LEN_RANGE'''. Note that the mechanism should allow the final post increment of the counter to overflow (if it implements it this way) but not allow any further processing after this point. E.g. if ulCounterBits = 2 and the counter bits start as 1 then only 3 blocks of data can be processed. == AES CBC with Cipher Text Stealing CTS == Ref [NIST AESCTS] This mode allows unpadded data that has length that is not a multiple of the block size to be encrypted to the same length of cipher text. {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

The type of this parameter is CK_BYTE_PTR and the pointer points to the array of 8 bytes to be used as the initial value. The length shall be either 0 and the pointer NULL, or 8, and the pointer non-NULL. === AES Key Wrap === The mechanisms support only single-part operations, single part wrapping and unwrapping, and single-part encryption and decryption. The CKM_AES_KEY_WRAP mechanism can wrap a key of any length. A key whose length is not a multiple of the AES Key Wrap block size (8 bytes) will be zero padded to fit. The CKM_AES_KEY_WRAP mechanism can only encrypt a block of data whose size is an exact multiple of the AES Key Wrap algorithm block size. The CKM_AES_KEY_WRAP_PAD mechanism can wrap a key or block of data of any length. It does the usual padding of inputs (keys or data blocks) that are not multiples of the AES Key Wrap algorithm block size, always producing wrapped output that is larger than the input key/data to be wrapped. This padding is done by the token before being passed to the AES key wrap algorithm, which adds an 8 byte AES Key Wrap algorithm block of data. == Key derivation by data encryption – DES & AES == These mechanisms allow derivation of keys using the result of an encryption operation as the key value. They are for use with the C_DeriveKey function. {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

The resulting cipher text shall be used to create the key value of the resulting key. If not all the cipher text is used then the part discarded will be from the trailing end (least significant bytes) of the cipher text data. The derived key shall be defined by the attribute template supplied but constrained by the length of cipher text available for the key value and other normal PKCS11 derivation constraints. Attribute template handling, attribute defaulting and key value preparation will operate as per the SHA-1 Key Derivation mechanism in section 6.17.5. If the data is too short to make the requested key then the mechanism returns CKR_DATA_LENGTH_INVALID. == Double and Triple-length DES == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

Mechanisms: CKM_DES2_KEY_GEN CKM_DES3_KEY_GEN CKM_DES3_ECB CKM_DES3_CBC CKM_DES3_MAC CKM_DES3_MAC_GENERAL CKM_DES3_CBC_PAD === DES2 secret key objects === DES2 secret key objects (object class '''CKO_SECRET_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_DES2''') hold double-length DES keys. The following table defines the DES2 secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 249, DES2 Secret Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (always 16 bytes long) |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes DES2 keys must always have their parity bits properly set as described in FIPS PUB 46-3 (''i.e.'', each of the DES keys comprising a DES2 key must have its parity bits properly set). Attempting to create or unwrap a DES2 key with incorrect parity will return an error. The following is a sample template for creating a double-length DES secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_DES2; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A DES2 secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[16] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; CKA_CHECK_VALUE: The value of this attribute is derived from the key object by taking the first three bytes of the ECB encryption of a single block of null (0x00) bytes, using the default cipher associated with the key type of the secret key object. === DES3 secret key objects === DES3 secret key objects (object class '''CKO_SECRET_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_DES3''') hold triple-length DES keys. The following table defines the DES3 secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 250, DES3 Secret Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (always 24 bytes long) |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes DES3 keys must always have their parity bits properly set as described in FIPS PUB 46-3 (''i.e.'', each of the DES keys comprising a DES3 key must have its parity bits properly set). Attempting to create or unwrap a DES3 key with incorrect parity will return an error. The following is a sample template for creating a triple-length DES secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_DES3; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A DES3 secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[24] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; CKA_CHECK_VALUE: The value of this attribute is derived from the key object by taking the first three bytes of the ECB encryption of a single block of null (0x00) bytes, using the default cipher associated with the key type of the secret key object. === Double-length DES key generation === The double-length DES key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_DES2_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for double-length DES keys. The DES keys making up a double-length DES key both have their parity bits set properly, as specified in FIPS PUB 46-3. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism contributes the''' CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the double-length DES key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. Double-length DES keys can be used with all the same mechanisms as triple-DES keys: '''CKM_DES3_ECB''', '''CKM_DES3_CBC''', '''CKM_DES3_CBC_PAD''', '''CKM_DES3_MAC_GENERAL''', and '''CKM_DES3_MAC'''. Triple-DES encryption with a double-length DES key is equivalent to encryption with a triple-length DES key with K1=K3 as specified in FIPS PUB 46-3. When double-length DES keys are generated, it is token-dependent whether or not it is possible for either of the component DES keys to be “weak” or “semi-weak” keys. === Triple-length DES Order of Operations === Triple-length DES encryptions are carried out as specified in FIPS PUB 46-3: encrypt, decrypt, encrypt. Decryptions are carried out with the opposite three steps: decrypt, encrypt, decrypt. The mathematical representations of the encrypt and decrypt operations are as follows:
DES3-E( {K1,K2,K3}, P ) = E( K3, D( K2, E( K1, P ) ) )
DES3-D( {K1,K2,K3}, C ) = D( K1, E( K2, D( K3, P ) ) )
=== Triple-length DES in CBC Mode === Triple-length DES operations in CBC mode, with double or triple-length keys, are performed using outer CBC as defined in X9.52. X9.52 describes this mode as TCBC. The mathematical representations of the CBC encrypt and decrypt operations are as follows:
DES3-CBC-E( {K1,K2,K3}, P ) = E( K3, D( K2, E( K1, P + I ) ) )
DES3-CBC-D( {K1,K2,K3}, C ) = D( K1, E( K2, D( K3, P ) ) ) + I
The value ''I'' is either an 8-byte initialization vector or the previous block of cipher text that is added to the current input block. The addition operation is used is addition modulo-2 (XOR). === DES and Triple length DES in OFB Mode === {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

The following additional DES3 mechanisms have been added. === Definitions === Mechanisms: CKM_DES3_CMAC_GENERAL CKM_DES3_CMAC === Mechanism parameters === CKM_DES3_CMAC_GENERAL uses the existing '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS '''structure. CKM_DES3_CMAC does not use a mechanism parameter. === General-length DES3-MAC === General-length DES3-CMAC, denoted '''CKM_DES3_CMAC_GENERAL''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part signatures and verification with DES3 or DES2 keys, based on [NIST sp800-38b]. It has a parameter, a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS '''structure, which specifies the output length desired from the mechanism. The output bytes from this mechanism are taken from the start of the final DES3 cipher block produced in the MACing process.

|} Reference [NIST sp800-38b] recommends that the output MAC is not truncated to less than 64 bits (which means using the entire block for DES). The MAC length must be specified before the communication starts, and must not be changed during the lifetime of the key. It is the caller’s responsibility to follow these rules. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure.are not used === DES3-CMAC === DES3-CMAC, denoted '''CKM_DAES3_CMAC''', is a special case of the general-length DES3-CMAC mechanism. DES3-MAC always produces and verifies MACs that are a full block size in length, since the DES3 block lenth is the minimum output length recommended by [NIST sp800-38b].

It has no parameter, and always produces an output of length 20. === SHA-1 key derivation === SHA-1 key derivation, denoted '''CKM_SHA1_KEY_DERIVATION''', is a mechanism which provides the capability of deriving a secret key by digesting the value of another secret key with SHA-1. The value of the base key is digested once, and the result is used to make the value of derived secret key. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key. Its length will be 20 bytes (the output size of SHA-1). * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length was provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more than 20 bytes, such as DES3, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. == SHA-224 == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

This functionality is defined in PKCS#5 as PBKDF2. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PKCS5_PBKD2_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the salt value source, pseudo-random function, and iteration count used to generate the new key. Since this mechanism can be used to generate any type of secret key, new key templates must contain the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' and '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attributes. If the key type has a fixed length the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute may be omitted. == PKCS #12 password-based encryption/authentication mechanisms == The mechanisms in this section are for generating keys and IVs for performing password-based encryption or authentication. The method used to generate keys and IVs is based on a method that was specified in PKCS #12. We specify here a general method for producing various types of pseudo-random bits from a password, ''p''; a string of salt bits, ''s''; and an iteration count, ''c''. The “type” of pseudo-random bits to be produced is identified by an identification byte, ''ID'', the meaning of which will be discussed later. Let H be a hash function built around a compression function ''f: '''Z'''2u  '''Z'''2v  '''Z'''2u'' (that is, H has a chaining variable and output of length ''u'' bits, and the message input to the compression function of H is ''v'' bits). For MD2 and MD5, ''u''=128 and ''v''=512; for SHA-1, ''u''=160 and ''v''=512. We assume here that ''u'' and ''v'' are both multiples of 8, as are the lengths in bits of the password and salt strings and the number ''n'' of pseudo-random bits required. In addition, ''u'' and ''v'' are of course nonzero. # Construct a string, ''D'' (the “diversifier”), by concatenating ''v''/8 copies of ''ID''. # Concatenate copies of the salt together to create a string ''S'' of length ''v''''s/v'' bits (the final copy of the salt may be truncated to create ''S''). Note that if the salt is the empty string, then so is ''S''. # Concatenate copies of the password together to create a string ''P'' of length ''v''''p/v'' bits (the final copy of the password may be truncated to create ''P''). Note that if the password is the empty string, then so is ''P''. # Set ''I''=''S''||''P'' to be the concatenation of ''S'' and ''P''. # Set ''j''=''n''/''u''. # For ''i''=1, 2, …, ''j'', do the following: # Set ''Ai''=H''c''(''D''||''I''), the ''c''th hash of ''D''||''I''. That is, compute the hash of ''D''||''I''; compute the hash of that hash; etc.; continue in this fashion until a total of ''c'' hashes have been computed, each on the result of the previous hash. # Concatenate copies of ''Ai'' to create a string ''B'' of length ''v'' bits (the final copy of ''Ai'' may be truncated to create ''B''). # Treating ''I'' as a concatenation ''I''0, ''I''1, …, ''Ik''-1 of ''v''-bit blocks, where ''k''=''s/v''+''p/v'', modify ''I'' by setting ''Ij''=(''Ij''+''B''+1) mod 2''v'' for each ''j''. To perform this addition, treat each ''v''-bit block as a binary number represented most-significant bit first. # Concatenate ''A''1, ''A''2, …, ''Aj'' together to form a pseudo-random bit string, ''A''. # Use the first ''n'' bits of ''A'' as the output of this entire process. When the password-based encryption mechanisms presented in this section are used to generate a key and IV (if needed) from a password, salt, and an iteration count, the above algorithm is used. To generate a key, the identifier byte ''ID'' is set to the value 1; to generate an IV, the identifier byte ''ID'' is set to the value 2. When the password based authentication mechanism presented in this section is used to generate a key from a password, salt, and an iteration count, the above algorithm is used. The identifier byte ''ID'' is set to the value 3. === SHA-1-PBE for 3-key triple-DES-CBC === SHA-1-PBE for 3-key triple-DES-CBC, denoted '''CKM_PBE_SHA1_DES3_EDE_CBC''', is a mechanism used for generating a 3-key triple-DES secret key and IV from a password and a salt value by using the SHA-1 digest algorithm and an iteration count. The method used to generate the key and IV is described above. Each byte of the key produced will have its low-order bit adjusted, if necessary, so that a valid 3-key triple-DES key with proper parity bits is obtained. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism. The key and IV produced by this mechanism will typically be used for performing password-based encryption. === SHA-1-PBE for 2-key triple-DES-CBC === SHA-1-PBE for 2-key triple-DES-CBC, denoted '''CKM_PBE_SHA1_DES2_EDE_CBC''', is a mechanism used for generating a 2-key triple-DES secret key and IV from a password and a salt value by using the SHA-1 digest algorithm and an iteration count. The method used to generate the key and IV is described above. Each byte of the key produced will have its low-order bit adjusted, if necessary, so that a valid 2-key triple-DES key with proper parity bits is obtained. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism. The key and IV produced by this mechanism will typically be used for performing password-based encryption. === SHA-1-PBA for SHA-1-HMAC === SHA-1-PBA for SHA-1-HMAC, denoted '''CKM_PBA_SHA1_WITH_SHA1_HMAC''', is a mechanism used for generating a 160-bit generic secret key from a password and a salt value by using the SHA-1 digest algorithm and an iteration count. The method used to generate the key is described above. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process. The parameter also has a field to hold the location of an application-supplied buffer which will receive an IV; for this mechanism, the contents of this field are ignored, since authentication with SHA-1-HMAC does not require an IV. The key generated by this mechanism will typically be used for computing a SHA-1 HMAC to perform password-based authentication (not ''password-based encryption''). At the time of this writing, this is primarily done to ensure the integrity of a PKCS #12 PDU. == SSL == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

It is used to produce the "pre_master" key used in SSL version 3.0 for RSA-like cipher suites. It has one parameter, a '''CK_VERSION''' structure, which provides the client’s SSL version number. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_GenerateKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure both indicate 48 bytes. === Master key derivation === Master key derivation in SSL 3.0, denoted '''CKM_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive one 48-byte generic secret key from another 48-byte generic secret key. It is used to produce the "master_secret" key used in the SSL protocol from the "pre_master" key. This mechanism returns the value of the client version, which is built into the "pre_master" key as well as a handle to the derived "master_secret" key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data to the token as well as the returning of the protocol version number which is part of the pre-master key. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template; otherwise they are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 48 bytes. Note that the '''CK_VERSION''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pVersion'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, when the call returns, this structure will hold the SSL version associated with the supplied pre_master key. Note that this mechanism is only useable for cipher suites that use a 48-byte “pre_master” secret with an embedded version number. This includes the RSA cipher suites, but excludes the Diffie-Hellman cipher suites. === Master key derivation for Diffie-Hellman === Master key derivation for Diffie-Hellman in SSL 3.0, denoted '''CKM_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_DH''', is a mechanism used to derive one 48-byte generic secret key from another arbitrary length generic secret key. It is used to produce the "master_secret" key used in the SSL protocol from the "pre_master" key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data to the token. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. The ''pVersion'' field of the structure must be set to NULL_PTR since the version number is not embedded in the "pre_master" key as it is for RSA-like cipher suites. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 48 bytes. Note that this mechanism is only useable for cipher suites that do not use a fixed length 48-byte “pre_master” secret with an embedded version number. This includes the Diffie-Hellman cipher suites, but excludes the RSA cipher suites. === Key and MAC derivation === Key, MAC and IV derivation in SSL 3.0, denoted '''CKM_SSL3_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive the appropriate cryptographic keying material used by a "CipherSuite" from the "master_secret" key and random data. This mechanism returns the key handles for the keys generated in the process, as well as the IVs created. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data as well as the characteristic of the cryptographic material for the given CipherSuite and a pointer to a structure which receives the handles and IVs which were generated. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. This mechanism contributes to the creation of four distinct keys on the token and returns two IVs (if IVs are requested by the caller) back to the caller. The keys are all given an object class of '''CKO_SECRET_KEY'''. The two MACing keys ("client_write_MAC_secret" and "server_write_MAC_secret") are always given a type of '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET'''. They are flagged as valid for signing, verification, and derivation operations. The other two keys ("client_write_key" and "server_write_key") are typed according to information found in the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call. By default, they are flagged as valid for encryption, decryption, and derivation operations. IVs will be generated and returned if the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field of the '''CK_SSL_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' field has a nonzero value. If they are generated, their length in bits will agree with the value in the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field. All four keys inherit the values of the''' CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes from the base key. The template provided to '''C_DeriveKey''' may not specify values for any of these attributes which differ from those held by the base key. Note that the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pReturnedKeyMaterial'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, the four key handle fields in the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure will be modified to hold handles to the newly-created keys; in addition, the buffers pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure’s ''pIVClient'' and ''pIVServer'' fields will have IVs returned in them (if IVs are requested by the caller). Therefore, these two fields must point to buffers with sufficient space to hold any IVs that will be returned. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in its returned information. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_SSL3_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''' mechanism returns all of its key handles in the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then ''none'' of the four keys will be created on the token. === MD5 MACing in SSL 3.0 === MD5 MACing in SSL3.0, denoted '''CKM_SSL3_MD5_MAC''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part signatures (data authentication) and verification using MD5, based on the SSL 3.0 protocol. This technique is very similar to the HMAC technique. It has a parameter, a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS''', which specifies the length in bytes of the signatures produced by this mechanism.

This technique is very similar to the HMAC technique. It has a parameter, a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS''', which specifies the length in bytes of the signatures produced by this mechanism.

It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS { CK_BYTE_PTR pSeed; CK_ULONG ulSeedLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pLabel; CK_ULONG ulLabelLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pOutput; CK_ULONG_PTR pulOutputLen; } CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: {| class="prettytable" |

''ulSeedLen''
| length in bytes of the input seed |- |
''pLabel''

| pointer to the length in bytes that the output to be created shall have, has to hold the desired length as input and will receive the calculated length as output |} '''CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS'''. === TLS PRF (pseudorandom function) === PRF (pseudo random function) in TLS, denoted '''CKM_TLS_PRF''', is a mechanism used to produce a securely generated pseudo-random output of arbitrary length. The keys it uses are generic secret keys. It has a parameter, a '''CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of the input seed and its length, the passing of an identifying label and its length and the passing of the length of the output to the token and for receiving the output. This mechanism produces securely generated pseudo-random output of the length specified in the parameter. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in not using the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call, which means the template shall be a NULL_PTR. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_TLS_PRF''' mechanism returns the requested number of output bytes in the '''CK_TLS_PRF_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then no output will be generated. === Pre_master key generation === Pre_master key generation in TLS 1.0, denoted '''CKM_TLS_PRE_MASTER_KEY_GEN''', is a mechanism which generates a 48-byte generic secret key. It is used to produce the "pre_master" key used in TLS version 1.0 for RSA-like cipher suites. It has one parameter, a CK_VERSION structure, which provides the client’s TLS version number. The CK_VERSION structure should have the version value {3, 1} for TLS version 1.0. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_GenerateKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure both indicate 48 bytes. === Master key derivation === Master key derivation in TLS 1.0, denoted '''CKM_TLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive one 48-byte generic secret key from another 48-byte generic secret key. It is used to produce the "master_secret" key used in the TLS protocol from the "pre_master" key. This mechanism returns the value of the client version, which is built into the "pre_master" key as well as a handle to the derived "master_secret" key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data to the token as well as the returning of the protocol version number which is part of the pre-master key. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 48 bytes. Note that the '''CK_VERSION''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pVersion'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, when the call returns, this structure will hold the SSL version associated with the supplied pre_master key. Note that this mechanism is only useable for cipher suites that use a 48-byte “pre_master” secret with an embedded version number. This includes the RSA cipher suites, but excludes the Diffie-Hellman cipher suites. === Master key derivation for Diffie-Hellman === Master key derivation for Diffie-Hellman in TLS 1.0, denoted '''CKM_TLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_DH''', is a mechanism used to derive one 48-byte generic secret key from another arbitrary length generic secret key. It is used to produce the "master_secret" key used in the TLS protocol from the "pre_master" key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data to the token. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. The ''pVersion'' field of the structure must be set to NULL_PTR since the version number is not embedded in the "pre_master" key as it is for RSA-like cipher suites. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 48. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 48 bytes. Note that this mechanism is only useable for cipher suites that do not use a fixed length 48-byte “pre_master” secret with an embedded version number. This includes the Diffie-Hellman cipher suites, but excludes the RSA cipher suites. === Key and MAC derivation === Key, MAC and IV derivation in TLS 1.0, denoted '''CKM_TLS_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive the appropriate cryptographic keying material used by a "CipherSuite" from the "master_secret" key and random data. This mechanism returns the key handles for the keys generated in the process, as well as the IVs created. It has a parameter, a '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of random data as well as the characteristic of the cryptographic material for the given CipherSuite and a pointer to a structure which receives the handles and IVs which were generated. This structure is defined in Section 6.24. This mechanism contributes to the creation of four distinct keys on the token and returns two IVs (if IVs are requested by the caller) back to the caller. The keys are all given an object class of '''CKO_SECRET_KEY'''. The two MACing keys ("client_write_MAC_secret" and "server_write_MAC_secret") are always given a type of '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET'''. They are flagged as valid for signing, verification, and derivation operations. The other two keys ("client_write_key" and "server_write_key") are typed according to information found in the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call. By default, they are flagged as valid for encryption, decryption, and derivation operations. IVs will be generated and returned if the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field of the '''CK_SSL_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' field has a nonzero value. If they are generated, their length in bits will agree with the value in the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field. All four keys inherit the values of the''' CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes from the base key. The template provided to '''C_DeriveKey''' may not specify values for any of these attributes which differ from those held by the base key. Note that the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pReturnedKeyMaterial'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, the four key handle fields in the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure will be modified to hold handles to the newly-created keys; in addition, the buffers pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure’s ''pIVClient'' and ''pIVServer'' fields will have IVs returned in them (if IVs are requested by the caller). Therefore, these two fields must point to buffers with sufficient space to hold any IVs that will be returned. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in its returned information. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_SSL3_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''' mechanism returns all of its key handles in the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_SSL3_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then ''none'' of the four keys will be created on the token. == WTLS == Details can be found in [WTLS]. When comparing the existing TLS mechanisms with these extensions to support WTLS one could argue that there would be no need to have distinct handling of the client and server side of the handshake. However, since in WTLS the server and client use different sequence numbers, there could be instances (e.g. when WTLS is used to protect asynchronous protocols) where sequence numbers on the client and server side differ, and hence this motivates the introduced split. {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

It is used to produce the pre master secret key for RSA key exchange suite used in WTLS. This mechanism returns a handle to the pre master secret key. It has one parameter, a '''CK_BYTE''', which provides the client’s WTLS version. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_GenerateKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute indicates the length of the pre master secret key. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize field of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure shall indicate 20 bytes. === Master secret key derivation === Master secret derivation in WTLS, denoted '''CKM_WTLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive a 20 byte generic secret key from variable length secret key. It is used to produce the master secret key used in WTLS from the pre master secret key. This mechanism returns the value of the client version, which is built into the pre master secret key as well as a handle to the derived master secret key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_WTLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for passing the mechanism type of the digest mechanism to be used as well as the passing of random data to the token as well as the returning of the protocol version number which is part of the pre master secret key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 20. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 20 bytes. Note that the '''CK_BYTE''' pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pVersion'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey '''call. In particular, when the call returns, this byte will hold the WTLS version associated with the supplied pre master secret key. Note that this mechanism is only useable for key exchange suites that use a 20-byte pre master secret key with an embedded version number. This includes the RSA key exchange suites, but excludes the Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Cryptography key exchange suites. === Master secret key derivation for Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Cryptography === Master secret derivation for Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Cryptography in WTLS, denoted '''CKM_WTLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_DH_ECC''', is a mechanism used to derive a 20 byte generic secret key from variable length secret key. It is used to produce the master secret key used in WTLS from the pre master secret key. This mechanism returns a handle to the derived master secret key. It has a parameter, a '''CK_WTLS_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of the mechanism type of the digest mechanism to be used as well as random data to the token. The ''pVersion ''field of the structure must be set to NULL_PTR since the version number is not embedded in the pre master secret key as it is for RSA-like key exchange suites. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key (as well as the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute, if it is not supplied in the template). Other attributes may be specified in the template, or else are assigned default values. The template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' call may indicate that the object class is '''CKO_SECRET_KEY''', the key type is '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET''', and the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute has value 20. However, since these facts are all implicit in the mechanism, there is no need to specify any of them. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE.

If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ulMinKeySize and ulMaxKeySize fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure both indicate 20 bytes. Note that this mechanism is only useable for key exchange suites that do not use a fixed length 20-byte pre master secret key with an embedded version number. This includes the Diffie-Hellman and Elliptic Curve Cryptography key exchange suites, but excludes the RSA key exchange suites. === WTLS PRF (pseudorandom function) === PRF (pseudo random function) in WTLS, denoted '''CKM_WTLS_PRF''', is a mechanism used to produce a securely generated pseudo-random output of arbitrary length. The keys it uses are generic secret keys. It has a parameter, a '''CK_WTLS_PRF_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for passing the mechanism type of the digest mechanism to be used, the passing of the input seed and its length, the passing of an identifying label and its length and the passing of the length of the output to the token and for receiving the output. This mechanism produces securely generated pseudo-random output of the length specified in the parameter. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in not using the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call, which means the template shall be a NULL_PTR. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_WTLS_PRF''' mechanism returns the requested number of output bytes in the '''CK_WTLS_PRF_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then no output will be generated. === Server Key and MAC derivation === Server key, MAC and IV derivation in WTLS, denoted '''CKM_WTLS_SERVER_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive the appropriate cryptographic keying material used by a cipher suite from the master secret key and random data. This mechanism returns the key handles for the keys generated in the process, as well as the IV created. It has a parameter, a '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of the mechanism type of the digest mechanism to be used, random data, the characteristic of the cryptographic material for the given cipher suite, and a pointer to a structure which receives the handles and IV which were generated. This mechanism contributes to the creation of two distinct keys and returns one IV (if an IV is requested by the caller) back to the caller. The keys are all given an object class of '''CKO_SECRET_KEY'''. The MACing key (server write MAC secret) is always given a type of '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET'''. It is flagged as valid for signing, verification and derivation operations. The other key (server write key) is typed according to information found in the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call. By default, it is flagged as valid for encryption, decryption, and derivation operations. An IV (server write IV) will be generated and returned if the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field of the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' field has a nonzero value. If it is generated, its length in bits will agree with the value in the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field Both keys inherit the values of the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes from the base key. The template provided to '''C_DeriveKey''' may not specify values for any of these attributes that differ from those held by the base key. Note that the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pReturnedKeyMaterial'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, the two key handle fields in the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure will be modified to hold handles to the newly-created keys; in addition, the buffer pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure’s ''pIV'' field will have the IV returned in them (if an IV is requested by the caller). Therefore, this field must point to a buffer with sufficient space to hold any IV that will be returned. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in its returned information. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_WTLS_SERVER_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''' mechanism returns all of its key handles in the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then ''none'' of the two keys will be created. === Client key and MAC derivation === Client key, MAC and IV derivation in WTLS, denoted '''CKM_WTLS_CLIENT_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''', is a mechanism used to derive the appropriate cryptographic keying material used by a cipher suite from the master secret key and random data. This mechanism returns the key handles for the keys generated in the process, as well as the IV created. It has a parameter, a '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure, which allows for the passing of the mechanism type of the digest mechanism to be used, random data, the characteristic of the cryptographic material for the given cipher suite, and a pointer to a structure which receives the handles and IV which were generated. This mechanism contributes to the creation of two distinct keys and returns one IV (if an IV is requested by the caller) back to the caller. The keys are all given an object class of '''CKO_SECRET_KEY'''. The MACing key (client write MAC secret) is always given a type of '''CKK_GENERIC_SECRET'''. It is flagged as valid for signing, verification and derivation operations. The other key (client write key) is typed according to information found in the template sent along with this mechanism during a '''C_DeriveKey''' function call. By default, it is flagged as valid for encryption, decryption, and derivation operations. An IV (client write IV) will be generated and returned if the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field of the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' field has a nonzero value. If it is generated, its length in bits will agree with the value in the ''ulIVSizeInBits'' field Both keys inherit the values of the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes from the base key. The template provided to '''C_DeriveKey''' may not specify values for any of these attributes that differ from those held by the base key. Note that the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure’s ''pReturnedKeyMaterial'' field will be modified by the '''C_DeriveKey''' call. In particular, the two key handle fields in the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure will be modified to hold handles to the newly-created keys; in addition, the buffer pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure’s ''pIV'' field will have the IV returned in them (if an IV is requested by the caller). Therefore, this field must point to a buffer with sufficient space to hold any IV that will be returned. This mechanism departs from the other key derivation mechanisms in Cryptoki in its returned information. For most key-derivation mechanisms, '''C_DeriveKey''' returns a single key handle as a result of a successful completion. However, since the '''CKM_WTLS_CLIENT_KEY_AND_MAC_DERIVE''' mechanism returns all of its key handles in the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_OUT''' structure pointed to by the '''CK_WTLS_KEY_MAT_PARAMS''' structure specified as the mechanism parameter, the parameter ''phKey'' passed to '''C_DeriveKey''' is unnecessary, and should be a NULL_PTR. If a call to '''C_DeriveKey''' with this mechanism fails, then ''none'' of the two keys will be created. == Miscellaneous simple key derivation mechanisms == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA { CK_BYTE_PTR pData; CK_ULONG ulLen; } CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''pData''pointer to the byte string ''ulLen''length of the byte string '''CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA'''. * '''CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS; CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_KEY_EXTRACT_PARAMS''' provides the parameter to the '''CKM_EXTRACT_KEY_FROM_KEY''' mechanism. It specifies which bit of the base key should be used as the first bit of the derived key. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS; '''CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS'''. === Concatenation of a base key and another key === This mechanism, denoted '''CKM_CONCATENATE_BASE_AND_KEY''', derives a secret key from the concatenation of two existing secret keys. The two keys are specified by handles; the values of the keys specified are concatenated together in a buffer. This mechanism takes a parameter, a '''CK_OBJECT_HANDLE'''. This handle produces the key value information which is appended to the end of the base key’s value information (the base key is the key whose handle is supplied as an argument to '''C_DeriveKey'''). For example, if the value of the base key is 0x01234567, and the value of the other key is 0x89ABCDEF, then the value of the derived key will be taken from a buffer containing the string 0x0123456789ABCDEF. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key. Its length will be equal to the sum of the lengths of the values of the two original keys. * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length is provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, DES3, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more bytes than are available by concatenating the two original keys’ values, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * If either of the two original keys has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * Similarly, if either of the two original keys has its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * The derived key’s '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if both of the original keys have their '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attributes set to CK_TRUE. * Similarly, the derived key’s '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if both of the original keys have their '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes set to CK_TRUE. === Concatenation of a base key and data === This mechanism, denoted '''CKM_CONCATENATE_BASE_AND_DATA''', derives a secret key by concatenating data onto the end of a specified secret key. This mechanism takes a parameter, a '''CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA''' structure, which specifies the length and value of the data which will be appended to the base key to derive another key. For example, if the value of the base key is 0x01234567, and the value of the data is 0x89ABCDEF, then the value of the derived key will be taken from a buffer containing the string 0x0123456789ABCDEF. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key. Its length will be equal to the sum of the lengths of the value of the original key and the data. * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length is provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, DES3, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more bytes than are available by concatenating the original key’s value and the data, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * If the base key has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * The derived key’s '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. * Similarly, the derived key’s '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. === Concatenation of data and a base key === This mechanism, denoted '''CKM_CONCATENATE_DATA_AND_BASE''', derives a secret key by prepending data to the start of a specified secret key. This mechanism takes a parameter, a '''CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA''' structure, which specifies the length and value of the data which will be prepended to the base key to derive another key. For example, if the value of the base key is 0x01234567, and the value of the data is 0x89ABCDEF, then the value of the derived key will be taken from a buffer containing the string 0x89ABCDEF01234567. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key. Its length will be equal to the sum of the lengths of the data and the value of the original key. * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length is provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, DES3, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more bytes than are available by concatenating the data and the original key’s value, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * If the base key has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * The derived key’s '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. * Similarly, the derived key’s '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. === XORing of a key and data === XORing key derivation, denoted '''CKM_XOR_BASE_AND_DATA''', is a mechanism which provides the capability of deriving a secret key by performing a bit XORing of a key pointed to by a base key handle and some data. This mechanism takes a parameter, a '''CK_KEY_DERIVATION_STRING_DATA''' structure, which specifies the data with which to XOR the original key’s value. For example, if the value of the base key is 0x01234567, and the value of the data is 0x89ABCDEF, then the value of the derived key will be taken from a buffer containing the string 0x88888888. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key. Its length will be equal to the minimum of the lengths of the data and the value of the original key. * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length is provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, DES3, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more bytes than are available by taking the shorter of the data and the original key’s value, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * If the base key has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * The derived key’s '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. * Similarly, the derived key’s '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. === Extraction of one key from another key === Extraction of one key from another key, denoted '''CKM_EXTRACT_KEY_FROM_KEY''', is a mechanism which provides the capability of creating one secret key from the bits of another secret key. This mechanism has a parameter, a CK_EXTRACT_PARAMS, which specifies which bit of the original key should be used as the first bit of the newly-derived key. We give an example of how this mechanism works. Suppose a token has a secret key with the 4-byte value 0x329F84A9. We will derive a 2-byte secret key from this key, starting at bit position 21 (i.e., the value of the parameter to the CKM_EXTRACT_KEY_FROM_KEY mechanism is 21). # We write the key’s value in binary: 0011 0010 1001 1111 1000 0100 1010 1001. We regard this binary string as holding the 32 bits of the key, labeled as b0, b1, …, b31. # We then extract 16 consecutive bits (i.e., 2 bytes) from this binary string, starting at bit b21. We obtain the binary string 1001 0101 0010 0110. # The value of the new key is thus 0x9526. Note that when constructing the value of the derived key, it is permissible to wrap around the end of the binary string representing the original key’s value. If the original key used in this process is sensitive, then the derived key must also be sensitive for the derivation to succeed. * If no length or key type is provided in the template, then an error will be returned. * If no key type is provided in the template, but a length is, then the key produced by this mechanism will be a generic secret key of the specified length. * If no length is provided in the template, but a key type is, then that key type must have a well-defined length. If it does, then the key produced by this mechanism will be of the type specified in the template. If it doesn’t, an error will be returned. * If both a key type and a length are provided in the template, the length must be compatible with that key type. The key produced by this mechanism will be of the specified type and length. If a DES, DES2, DES3, or CDMF key is derived with this mechanism, the parity bits of the key will be set properly. If the requested type of key requires more bytes than the original key has, an error is generated. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractability: * If the base key has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, so does the derived key. If not, then the derived key’s '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set either from the supplied template or from a default value. * The derived key’s '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. * Similarly, the derived key’s '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute is set to CK_TRUE if and only if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE. == CMS == {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="7" |

| | | | |} === Definitions === Mechanisms: CKM_CMS_SIG === CMS Signature Mechanism Objects === These objects provide information relating to the CKM_CMS_SIG mechanism. CKM_CMS_SIG mechanism object attributes represent information about supported CMS signature attributes in the token. They are only present on tokens supporting the '''CKM_CMS_SIG''' mechanism, but must be present on those tokens. '''Table 267, CMS Signature Mechanism Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_REQUIRED_CMS_ATTRIBUTES | Byte array | Attributes the token always will include in the set of CMS signed attributes |- | CKA_DEFAULT_CMS_ATTRIBUTES | Byte array | Attributes the token will include in the set of CMS signed attributes in the absence of any attributes specified by the application |- | CKA_SUPPORTED_CMS_ATTRIBUTES | Byte array | Attributes the token may include in the set of CMS signed attributes upon request by the application |} The contents of each byte array will be a DER-encoded list of CMS '''Attributes''' with optional accompanying values. Any attributes in the list shall be identified with its object identifier, and any values shall be DER-encoded. The list of attributes is defined in ASN.1 as: '''Attributes ::= SET SIZE (1..MAX) OF Attribute''' '''Attribute ::= SEQUENCE {''' '''attrType OBJECT IDENTIFIER,''' '''attrValues SET OF ANY DEFINED BY OBJECT IDENTIFIER OPTIONAL''' '''}''' The client may not set any of the attributes. === CMS mechanism parameters === * '''CK_CMS_SIG_PARAMS, CK_CMS_SIG_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_CMS_SIG_PARAMS''' is a structure that provides the parameters to the '''CKM_CMS_SIG''' mechanism. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_CMS_SIG_PARAMS { CK_OBJECT_HANDLEcertificateHandle; CK_MECHANISM_PTRpSigningMechanism; CK_MECHANISM_PTRpDigestMechanism; CK_UTF8CHAR_PTRpContentType; CK_BYTE_PTRpRequestedAttributes; CK_ULONGulRequestedAttributesLen; CK_BYTE_PTRpRequiredAttributes; CK_ULONGulRequiredAttributesLen; } CK_CMS_SIG_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''certificateHandle''Object handle for a certificate associated with the signing key. The token may use information from this certificate to identify the signer in the '''SignerInfo''' result value. ''CertificateHandle'' may be NULL_PTR if the certificate is not available as a PKCS #11 object or if the calling application leaves the choice of certificate completely to the token. ''pSigningMechanism''Mechanism to use when signing a constructed CMS '''SignedAttributes''' value. E.g. '''CKM_SHA1_RSA_PKCS'''. ''pDigestMechanism''Mechanism to use when digesting the data. Value shall be NULL_PTR when the digest mechanism to use follows from the ''pSigningMechanism'' parameter. ''pContentType''NULL-terminated string indicating complete MIME Content-type of message to be signed; or the value NULL_PTR if the message is a MIME object (which the token can parse to determine its MIME Content-type if required). Use the value “application/octet-stream“ if the MIME type for the message is unknown or undefined. Note that the ''pContentType'' string shall conform to the syntax specified in RFC 2045, i.e. any parameters needed for correct presentation of the content by the token (such as, for example, a non-default “charset”) must be present. The token must follow rules and procedures defined in RFC 2045 when presenting the content. ''pRequestedAttributes''Pointer to DER-encoded list of CMS '''Attributes''' the caller requests to be included in the signed attributes. Token may freely ignore this list or modify any supplied values. ''ulRequestedAttributesLen''Length in bytes of the value pointed to by ''pRequestedAttributes'' ''pRequiredAttributes''Pointer to DER-encoded list of CMS '''Attributes''' (with accompanying values) required to be included in the resulting signed attributes. Token must not modify any supplied values. If the token does not support one or more of the attributes, or does not accept provided values, the signature operation will fail. The token will use its own default attributes when signing if both the ''pRequestedAttributes'' and ''pRequiredAttributes'' field are set to NULL_PTR. ''ulRequiredAttributesLen''Length in bytes, of the value pointed to by ''pRequiredAttributes''. === CMS signatures === The CMS mechanism, denoted '''CKM_CMS_SIG''', is a multi-purpose mechanism based on the structures defined in PKCS #7 and RFC 2630. It supports single- or multiple-part signatures with and without message recovery. The mechanism is intended for use with, e.g., PTDs (see MeT-PTD) or other capable tokens. The token will construct a CMS '''SignedAttributes''' value and compute a signature on this value. The content of the '''SignedAttributes''' value is decided by the token, however the caller can suggest some attributes in the parameter ''pRequestedAttributes''. The caller can also require some attributes to be present through the parameters ''pRequiredAttributes''. The signature is computed in accordance with the parameter ''pSigningMechanism''. When this mechanism is used in successful calls to '''C_Sign''' or '''C_SignFinal''', the ''pSignature'' return value will point to a DER-encoded value of type '''SignerInfo'''. '''SignerInfo''' is defined in ASN.1 as follows (for a complete definition of all fields and types, see RFC 2630): '''SignerInfo ::= SEQUENCE {''' '''version CMSVersion,''' '''sid SignerIdentifier,''' '''digestAlgorithm DigestAlgorithmIdentifier,''' '''signedAttrs [0] IMPLICIT SignedAttributes OPTIONAL,''' '''signatureAlgorithm SignatureAlgorithmIdentifier,''' '''signature SignatureValue,''' '''unsignedAttrs [1] IMPLICIT UnsignedAttributes OPTIONAL }''' The ''certificateHandle'' parameter, when set, helps the token populate the '''sid''' field of the '''SignerInfo''' value. If ''certificateHandle'' is NULL_PTR the choice of a suitable certificate reference in the '''SignerInfo''' result value is left to the token (the token could, e.g., interact with the user). This mechanism shall not be used in calls to '''C_Verify''' or '''C_VerifyFinal '''(use the ''pSigningMechanism'' mechanism instead). In order for an application to find out what attributes are supported by a token, what attributes that will be added by default, and what attributes that always will be added, it shall analyze the contents of the '''CKH_CMS_ATTRIBUTES''' hardware feature object. For the ''pRequiredAttributes'' field, the token may have to interact with the user to find out whether to accept a proposed value or not. The token should never accept any proposed attribute values without some kind of confirmation from its owner (but this could be through, e.g., configuration or policy settings and not direct interaction). If a user rejects proposed values, or the signature request as such, the value CKR_FUNCTION_REJECTED shall be returned. When possible, applications should use the '''CKM_CMS_SIG''' mechanism when generating CMS-compatible signatures rather than lower-level mechanisms such as '''CKM_SHA1_RSA_PKCS'''. This is especially true when the signatures are to be made on content that the token is able to present to a user. Exceptions may include those cases where the token does not support a particular signing attribute. Note however that the token may refuse usage of a particular signature key unless the content to be signed is known (i.e. the '''CKM_CMS_SIG''' mechanism is used). When a token does not have presentation capabilities, the PKCS #11-aware application may avoid sending the whole message to the token by electing to use a suitable signature mechanism (e.g. '''CKM_RSA_PKCS''') as the ''pSigningMechanism'' value in the '''CKM_CMS_SIG_PARAMS''' structure, and digesting the message itself before passing it to the token. PKCS #11-aware applications making use of tokens with presentation capabilities, should attempt to provide messages to be signed by the token in a format possible for the token to present to the user. Tokens that receive multipart MIME-messages for which only certain parts are possible to present may fail the signature operation with a return value of '''CKR_DATA_INVALID''', but may also choose to add a signing attribute indicating which parts of the message that were possible to present. == Blowfish == Blowfish, a secret-key block cipher. It is a Feistel network, iterating a simple encryption function 16 times. The block size is 64 bits, and the key can be any length up to 448 bits. Although there is a complex initialization phase required before any encryption can take place, the actual encryption of data is very efficient on large microprocessors.

It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates Blowfish keys with a particular length, as specified in the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template for the key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of key sizes in bytes. === Blowfish -CBC === Blowfish-CBC, denoted '''CKM_BLOWFISH_CBC''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping. It has a parameter, a 8-byte initialization vector. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to block size minus one null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of the block size. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately. For unwrapping, the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template.

It has a parameter, a 8-byte initialization vector. The PKCS padding in this mechanism allows the length of the plaintext value to be recovered from the ciphertext value. Therefore, when unwrapping keys with this mechanism, no value should be specified for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. The entries in the table below for data length constraints when wrapping and unwrapping keys do not apply to wrapping and unwrapping private keys.

| |} For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of Aria key sizes, in bytes. === ARIA-CBC with PKCS padding === ARIA-CBC with PKCS padding, denoted '''CKM_ARIA_CBC_PAD''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on ARIA; cipher-block chaining mode; and the block cipher padding method detailed in PKCS #7. It has a parameter, a 16-byte initialization vector. The PKCS padding in this mechanism allows the length of the plaintext value to be recovered from the ciphertext value. Therefore, when unwrapping keys with this mechanism, no value should be specified for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. In addition to being able to wrap and unwrap secret keys, this mechanism can wrap and unwrap RSA, Diffie-Hellman, X9.42 Diffie-Hellman, EC (also related to ECDSA) and DSA private keys (see Section TBA for details). The entries in the table below for data length constraints when wrapping and unwrapping keys do not apply to wrapping and unwrapping private keys. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 280, ARIA-CBC with PKCS Padding: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It has a parameter, a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS '''structure, which specifies the output length desired from the mechanism. The output bytes from this mechanism are taken from the start of the final ARIA cipher block produced in the MACing process.

ARIA-MAC always produces and verifies MACs that are half the block size in length. It does not have a parameter.

The following table defines the secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 284, SEED Secret Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" !

It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates SEED keys. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the SEED key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. === SEED-ECB === SEED-ECB, denoted '''CKM_SEED_ECB''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on SEED and electronic codebook mode. It does not have a parameter. === SEED-CBC === SEED-CBC, denoted '''CKM_SEED_CBC''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on SEED and cipher-block chaining mode. It has a parameter, a 16-byte initialization vector. === SEED-CBC with PKCS padding === SEED-CBC with PKCS padding, denoted '''CKM_SEED_CBC_PAD''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on SEED; cipher-block chaining mode; and the block cipher padding method detailed in PKCS #7. It has a parameter, a 16-byte initialization vector. === General-length SEED-MAC === General-length SEED-MAC, denoted '''CKM_SEED_MAC_GENERAL''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part signatures and verification, based on SEED and data authentication as defined in 3. It has a parameter, a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS '''structure, which specifies the output length desired from the mechanism. The output bytes from this mechanism are taken from the start of the final cipher block produced in the MACing process. === SEED-MAC === SEED-MAC, denoted by '''CKM_SEED_MAC''', is a special case of the general-length SEED-MAC mechanism.

The usage cases can be categorized according to the type of sought functionality. === Case 1: Generation of OTP values ===
.[[Image:]]
'''Figure 1: Retrieving OTP values through C_Sign'''
Figure 1 shows an integration of PKCS #11 into an application that needs to authenticate users holding OTP tokens. In this particular example, a connected hardware token is used, but a software token is equally possible. The application invokes '''C_Sign''' to retrieve the OTP value from the token. In the example, the application then passes the retrieved OTP value to a client API that sends it via the network to an authentication server. The client API may implement a standard authentication protocol such as RADIUS [RFC 2865] or EAP [RFC 3748], or a proprietary protocol such as that used by RSA Security's ACE/Agent® software. === Case 2: Verification of provided OTP values ===
[[Image:]]
'''Figure 2: Server-side verification of OTP values'''
Figure 2 illustrates the server-side equivalent of the scenario depicted in Figure 1. In this case, a server application invokes '''C_Verify''' with the received OTP value as the signature value to be verified. === Case 3: Generation of OTP keys ===
[[Image:]]
'''Figure 3: Generation of an OTP key'''
Figure 3 shows an integration of PKCS #11 into an application that generates OTP keys. The application invokes '''C_GenerateKey''' to generate an OTP key of a particular type on the token. The key may subsequently be used as a basis to generate OTP values. === OTP objects === ==== Key objects ==== OTP key objects (object class '''CKO_OTP_KEY''') hold secret keys used by OTP tokens. The following table defines the attributes common to all OTP keys, in addition to the attributes defined for secret keys, all of which are inherited by this class: '''Table 86: Common OTP key attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_OTP_FORMAT | CK_ULONG | Format of OTP values produced with this key: CK_OTP_FORMAT_DECIMAL = Decimal (default) (UTF8-encoded) CK_OTP_FORMAT_HEXADECIMAL = Hexadecimal (UTF8-encoded) CK_OTP_FORMAT_ALPHANUMERIC = Alphanumeric (UTF8-encoded) CK_OTP_FORMAT_BINARY = Only binary values. |- | CKA_OTP_LENGTH9 | CK_ULONG | Default length of OTP values (in the CKA_OTP_FORMAT) produced with this key. |- | CKA_OTP_USER_FRIENDLY_MODE9 | CK_BBOOL | Set to CK_TRUE when the token is capable of returning OTPs suitable for human consumption. See the description of CKF_USER_FRIENDLY_OTP below. |- | CKA_OTP _CHALLENGE_REQUIREMENT9 | CK_ULONG | Parameter requirements when generating or verifying OTP values with this key: CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY = A challenge must be supplied. CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL = A challenge may be supplied but need not be. CK_OTP_PARAM_IGNORED = A challenge, if supplied, will be ignored. |- | CKA_OTP_TIME_REQUIREMENT9 | CK_ULONG | Parameter requirements when generating or verifying OTP values with this key: CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY = A time value must be supplied. CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL = A time value may be supplied but need not be. CK_OTP_PARAM_IGNORED = A time value, if supplied, will be ignored. |- | CKA_OTP_COUNTER_REQUIREMENT9 | CK_ULONG | Parameter requirements when generating or verifying OTP values with this key: CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY = A counter value must be supplied. CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL = A counter value may be supplied but need not be. CK_OTP_PARAM_IGNORED = A counter value, if supplied, will be ignored. |- | CKA_OTP_PIN_REQUIREMENT9 | CK_ULONG | Parameter requirements when generating or verifying OTP values with this key: CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY = A PIN value must be supplied. CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL = A PIN value may be supplied but need not be (if not supplied, then library will be responsible for collecting it) CK_OTP_PARAM_IGNORED = A PIN value, if supplied, will be ignored. |- | CKA_OTP_COUNTER | Byte array | Value of the associated internal counter. Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen'' = 0). |- | CKA_OTP_TIME | RFC 2279 string | Value of the associated internal UTC time in the form YYYYMMDDhhmmss. Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen''= 0). |- | CKA_OTP_USER_IDENTIFIER | RFC 2279 string | Text string that identifies a user associated with the OTP key (may be used to enhance the user experience). Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen'' = 0). |- | CKA_OTP_SERVICE_IDENTIFIER | RFC 2279 string | Text string that identifies a service that may validate OTPs generated by this key. Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen'' = 0). |- | CKA_OTP_SERVICE_LOGO | Byte array | Logotype image that identifies a service that may validate OTPs generated by this key. Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen'' = 0). |- | CKA_OTP_SERVICE_LOGO_TYPE | RFC 2279 string | MIME type of the CKA_OTP_SERVICE_LOGO attribute value. Default value is empty (i.e. ''ulValueLen'' = 0). |- | CKA_VALUE1, 4, 6, 7 | Byte array | Value of the key. |- | CKA_VALUE_LEN2, 3 | CK_ULONG | Length in bytes of key value. |} Refer to table Table 15 for table footnotes.. Note: A Cryptoki library may support PIN-code caching in order to reduce user interactions. An OTP-PKCS #11 application should therefore always consult the state of the CKA_OTP_PIN_REQUIREMENT attribute before each call to '''C_SignInit''', as the value of this attribute may change dynamically. For OTP tokens with multiple keys, the keys may be enumerated using '''C_FindObjects'''. The '''CKA_OTP_SERVICE_IDENTIFIER''' and/or the '''CKA_OTP_SERVICE_LOGO''' attribute may be used to distinguish between keys. The actual choice of key for a particular operation is however application-specific and beyond the scope of this document. For all OTP keys, the CKA_ALLOWED_MECHANISMS attribute should be set as required. === OTP-related notifications === This document extends the set of defined notifications as follows: ''CKN_OTP_CHANGED''Cryptoki is informing the application that the OTP for a key on a connected token just changed. This notification is particularly useful when applications wish to display the current OTP value for time-based mechanisms. === OTP mechanisms === The following table shows, for the OTP mechanisms defined in this document, their support by different cryptographic operations. For any particular token, of course, a particular operation may well support only a subset of the mechanisms listed. There is also no guarantee that a token that supports one mechanism for some operation supports any other mechanism for any other operation (or even supports that same mechanism for any other operation).

It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_PARAM_TYPE; The following '''CK_PARAM_TYPE''' types are defined: '''Table 88: OTP parameter types''' {| class="prettytable" ! Parameter ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CK_OTP_PIN | RFC 2279 string | A UTF8 string containing a PIN for use when computing or verifying PIN-based OTP values. |- | CK_OTP_CHALLENGE | Byte array | Challenge to use when computing or verifying challenge-based OTP values. |- | CK_OTP_TIME | RFC 2279 string | UTC time value in the form YYYYMMDDhhmmss to use when computing or verifying time-based OTP values. |- | CK_OTP_COUNTER | Byte array | Counter value to use when computing or verifying counter-based OTP values. |- | CK_OTP_FLAGS | CK_FLAGS | Bit flags indicating the characteristics of the sought OTP as defined below. |- | CK_OTP_OUTPUT_LENGTH | CK_ULONG | Desired output length (overrides any default value). A Cryptoki library will return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if a provided length value is not supported. |- | CK_OTP_FORMAT | CK_ULONG | Returned OTP format (allowed values are the same as for CKA_OTP_FORMAT). This parameter is only intended for '''C_Sign''' output, see below. When not present, the returned OTP format will be the same as the value of the CKA_OTP_FORMAT attribute for the key in question. |- | CK_OTP_VALUE | Byte array | An actual OTP value. This parameter type is intended for '''C_Sign''' output, see below. |} The following table defines the possible values for the CK_OTP_FLAGS type: '''Table 89: OTP Mechanism Flags''' {| class="prettytable" ! Bit flag ! Mask ! Meaning |- | CKF_NEXT_OTP | 0x00000001 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP computation shall be for the next OTP, rather than the current one (current being interpreted in the context of the algorithm, e.g. for the current counter value or current time window). A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if the CKF_NEXT_OTP flag is set and the OTP mechanism in question does not support the concept of “next” OTP or the library is not capable of generating the next OTPApplications that may need to retrieve the next OTP should be prepared to handle this situation. For example, an application could store the OTP value returned by C_Sign so that, if a next OTP is required, it can compare it to the OTP value returned by subsequent calls to C_Sign should it turn out that the library does not support the CKF_NEXT_OTP flag.. |- | CKF_EXCLUDE_TIME | 0x00000002 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP computation must not include a time value. Will have an effect only on mechanisms that do include a time value in the OTP computation and then only if the mechanism (and token) allows exclusion of this value. A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if exclusion of the value is not allowed. |- | CKF_EXCLUDE_COUNTER | 0x00000004 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP computation must not include a counter value. Will have an effect only on mechanisms that do include a counter value in the OTP computation and then only if the mechanism (and token) allows exclusion of this value. A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if exclusion of the value is not allowed. |- | CKF_EXCLUDE_CHALLENGE | 0x00000008 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP computation must not include a challenge. Will have an effect only on mechanisms that do include a challenge in the OTP computation and then only if the mechanism (and token) allows exclusion of this value. A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if exclusion of the value is not allowed. |- | CKF_EXCLUDE_PIN | 0x00000010 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP computation must not include a PIN value. Will have an effect only on mechanisms that do include a PIN in the OTP computation and then only if the mechanism (and token) allows exclusion of this value. A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if exclusion of the value is not allowed. |- | CKF_USER_FRIENDLY_OTP | 0x00000020 | True (i.e. set) if the OTP returned shall be in a form suitable for human consumption. If this flag is set, and the call is successful, then the returned CK_OTP_VALUE shall be a UTF8-encoded printable string. A Cryptoki library shall return CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID if this flag is set when CKA_OTP_USER_FRIENDLY_MODE for the key in question is CK_FALSE. |} Note: Even if CKA_OTP_FORMAT is not set to CK_OTP_FORMAT_BINARY, then there may still be value in setting the CKF_USER_FRIENDLY flag (assuming CKA_USER_FRIENDLY_MODE is CK_TRUE, of course) if the intent is for a human to read the generated OTP value, since it may become shorter or otherwise better suited for a user. Applications that do not intend to provide a returned OTP value to a user should not set the CKF_USER_FRIENDLY_OTP flag. * '''CK_OTP_PARAM; CK_OTP_PARAM_PTR''' '''CK_OTP_PARAM''' is a structure that includes the type, value, and length of an OTP parameter. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_OTP_PARAM { CK_PARAM_TYPE type; CK_VOID_PTR pValue; CK_ULONGulValueLen; } CK_OTP_PARAM; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''type''the parameter type ''pValue''pointer to the value of the parameter ''ulValueLen''length in bytes of the value If a parameter has no value, then ''ulValueLen'' = 0, and the value of ''pValue'' is irrelevant. Note that ''pValue'' is a “void” pointer, facilitating the passing of arbitrary values. Both the application and the Cryptoki library must ensure that the pointer can be safely cast to the expected type (''i.e.'', without word-alignment errors). '''CK_OTP_PARAM_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_OTP_PARAM.''' '''CK_OTP_PARAMS; CK_OTP_PARAMS_PTR''''''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' is a structure that is used to provide parameters for OTP mechanisms in a generic fashion. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_OTP_PARAMS { CK_OTP_PARAM_PTR pParams; CK_ULONG ulCount; } CK_OTP_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''pParams''pointer to an array of OTP parameters ''ulCount''the number of parameters in the array '''CK_OTP_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS'''. When calling '''C_SignInit''' or '''C_VerifyInit''' with a mechanism that takes a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' structure as a parameter, the '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' structure shall be populated in accordance with the '''CKA_OTP_''X''_REQUIREMENT''' key attributes for the identified key, where '''''X''''' is '''PIN''', '''CHALLENGE''', '''TIME''', or '''COUNTER'''. For example, if '''CKA_OTP_TIME_REQUIREMENT''' = CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY, then the '''CK_OTP_TIME''' parameter shall be present. If '''CKA_OTP_TIME_REQUIREMENT''' = CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL, then a '''CK_OTP_TIME''' parameter may be present. If it is not present, then the library may collect it (during the '''C_Sign '''call). If '''CKA_OTP_TIME_REQUIREMENT''' = CK_OTP_PARAM_IGNORED, then a provided '''CK_OTP_TIME''' parameter will always be ignored. Additionally, a provided '''CK_OTP_TIME''' parameter will always be ignored if CKF_EXCLUDE_TIME is set in a '''CK_OTP_FLAGS''' parameter. Similarly, if this flag is set, a library will not attempt to collect the value itself, and it will also instruct the token not to make use of any internal value, subject to token policies. It is an error ('''CKR_MECHANISM_PARAM_INVALID''') to set the CKF_EXCLUDE_TIME flag when the '''CKA_TIME_REQUIREMENT''' attribute is CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY. The above discussion holds for all '''CKA_OTP_''X''_REQUIREMENT''' attributes (''i.e''., '''CKA_OTP_PIN_REQUIREMENT''', '''CKA_OTP_CHALLENGE_REQURIEMENT''', '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER_REQUIREMENT''',''' CKA_OTP_TIME_REQUIREMENT'''). A library may set a particular '''CKA_OTP_''X''_REQUIREMENT''' attribute to CK_OTP_PARAM_OPTIONAL even if it is required by the mechanism as long as the token (or the library itself) has the capability of providing the value to the computation. One example of this is a token with an on-board clock. In addition, applications may use the '''CK_OTP_FLAGS''', the''' CK_OTP_OUTPUT_FORMAT''' and the''' CK_OUTPUT_LENGTH''' parameters to set additional parameters. '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO, CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO_PTR''''''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO''' is a structure that is returned by all OTP mechanisms in successful calls to '''C_Sign''' ('''C_SignFinal'''). The structure informs applications of actual parameter values used in particular OTP computations in addition to the OTP value itself. It is used by all mechanisms for which the key belongs to the class CKO_OTP_KEY and is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO { CK_OTP_PARAM_PTR pParams; CK_ULONG ulCount; } CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''pParams''pointer to an array of OTP parameter values ''ulCount''the number of parameters in the array After successful calls to '''C_Sign''' or '''C_SignFinal''' with an OTP mechanism, the ''pSignature'' parameter will be set to point to a '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO''' structure. One of the parameters in this structure will be the OTP value itself, identified with the '''CK_OTP_VALUE''' tag. Other parameters may be present for informational purposes, e.g. the actual time used in the OTP calculation. In order to simplify OTP validations, authentication protocols may permit authenticating parties to send some or all of these parameters in addition to OTP values themselves. Applications should therefore check for their presence in returned '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO '''values''' '''whenever such circumstances apply. Since '''C_Sign''' and '''C_SignFinal''' follows the convention described in Section 11.2 on producing output, a call to '''C_Sign '''(or '''C_SignFinal''') with ''pSignature'' set to NULL_PTR will return (in the ''pulSignatureLen'' parameter) the required number of bytes to hold the '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO''' structure ''as well as all the data in all its '''CK_OTP_PARAM''' components''. If an application allocates a memory block based on this information, it shall therefore not subsequently de-allocate components of such a received value but rather de-allocate the complete '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' structure itself. A Cryptoki library that is called with a non-NULL ''pSignature'' pointer will assume that it points to a ''contiguous ''memory block of the size indicated by the ''pulSignatureLen'' parameter. When verifying an OTP value using an OTP mechanism, ''pSignature'' shall be set to the OTP value itself, e.g. the value of the '''CK_OTP_VALUE''' component of a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS '''structure returned by a call to '''C_Sign'''. The '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' value supplied in the '''C_VerifyInit''' call sets the values to use in the verification operation. '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO_PTR''' points to a '''CK_OTP_SIGNATURE_INFO.''' === RSA SecurID === ==== RSA SecurID secret key objects ==== RSA SecurID secret key objects (object class '''CKO_OTP_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_SECURID''') hold RSA SecurID secret keys. The following table defines the RSA SecurID secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 90: RSA SecurID secret key object attributes''' {| class="prettytable" !

The following is a sample template for creating an RSA SecurID secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_OTP_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_SECURID; CK_DATE endDate = {...}; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “RSA SecurID secret key object”; CK_BYTE keyId[]= {...}; CK_ULONG outputFormat = CK_OTP_FORMAT_DECIMAL; CK_ULONG outputLength = 6; CK_ULONG needPIN = CK_OTP_PARAM_MANDATORY; CK_ULONG timeInterval = 60; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_END_DATE, &endDate, sizeof(endDate)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SIGN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VERIFY, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_ID, keyId, sizeof(keyId)}, {CKA_OTP_FORMAT, &outputFormat, sizeof(outputFormat)}, {CKA_OTP_LENGTH, &outputLength, sizeof(outputLength)}, {CKA_OTP_PIN_REQUIREMENT, &needPIN, sizeof(needPIN)}, {CKA_OTP_TIME_INTERVAL, &timeInterval, sizeof(timeInterval)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === RSA SecurID key generation === The RSA SecurID key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_SECURID_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for the RSA SecurID algorithm. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates RSA SecurID keys with a particular set of attributes as specified in the template for the key. The mechanism contributes at least the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the RSA SecurID key type may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of SecurID key sizes, in bytes. === RSA SecurID OTP generation and validation === '''CKM_SECURID''' is the mechanism for the retrieval and verification of RSA SecurID OTP values. The mechanism takes a pointer to a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' structure as a parameter. When signing or verifying using the '''CKM_SECURID''' mechanism, ''pData'' shall be set to NULL_PTR and ''ulDataLen ''shall be set to 0. === Return values === Support for the '''CKM_SECURID''' mechanism extends the set of return values for '''C_Verify''' with the following values: * CKR_NEW_PIN_MODE: The supplied OTP was not accepted and the library requests a new OTP computed using a new PIN. The new PIN is set through means out of scope for this document. * CKR_NEXT_OTP: The supplied OTP was correct but indicated a larger than normal drift in the token's internal state (e.g. clock, counter). To ensure this was not due to a temporary problem, the application should provide the next one-time password to the library for verification. === OATH HOTP === ==== OATH HOTP secret key objects ==== HOTP secret key objects (object class '''CKO_OTP_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_HOTP''') hold generic secret keys and associated counter values. The '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER '''value may be set at key generation; however, some tokens may set it to a fixed initial value. Depending on the token’s security policy, this value may not be modified and/or may not be revealed if the object has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE or its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE. For HOTP keys, the '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER '''value''' '''shall be an 8 bytes unsigned integer in big endian (i.e. network byte order) form. The same holds true for a '''CK_OTP_COUNTER''' value in a '''CK_OTP_PARAM '''structure. The following is a sample template for creating a HOTP secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_OTP_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_HOTP; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “HOTP secret key object”; CK_BYTE keyId[]= {...}; CK_ULONG outputFormat = CK_OTP_FORMAT_DECIMAL; CK_ULONG outputLength = 6; CK_DATE endDate = {...}; CK_BYTE counterValue[8] = {0}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_END_DATE, &endDate, sizeof(endDate)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SIGN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VERIFY, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_ID, keyId, sizeof(keyId)}, {CKA_OTP_FORMAT, &outputFormat, sizeof(outputFormat)}, {CKA_OTP_LENGTH, &outputLength, sizeof(outputLength)}, {CKA_OTP_COUNTER, counterValue, sizeof(counterValue)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; ==== HOTP key generation ==== The HOTP key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_HOTP_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for the HOTP algorithm. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates HOTP keys with a particular set of attributes as specified in the template for the key. The mechanism contributes at least the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER''', '''CKA_VALUE''' and '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the HOTP key type may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of HOTP key sizes, in bytes. ==== HOTP OTP generation and validation ==== '''CKM_HOTP''' is the mechanism for the retrieval and verification of HOTP OTP values based on the current internal counter, or a provided counter. The mechanism takes a pointer to a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS''' structure as a parameter. As for the '''CKM_SECURID''' mechanism, when signing or verifying using the '''CKM_HOTP''' mechanism, ''pData'' shall be set to NULL_PTR and ''ulDataLen ''shall be set to 0. For verify operations, the counter value '''CK_OTP_COUNTER''' must be provided as a '''CK_OTP_PARAM '''parameter to '''C_VerifyInit'''. When verifying an OTP value using the '''CKM_HOTP''' mechanism, ''pSignature'' shall be set to the OTP value itself, e.g. the value of the '''CK_OTP_VALUE''' component of a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS '''structure in the case of an earlier call to '''C_Sign'''. === ActivIdentity ACTI === ==== ACTI secret key objects ==== ACTI secret key objects (object class '''CKO_OTP_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_ACTI''') hold ActivIdentity ACTI secret keys. For ACTI keys, the '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER '''value shall be an 8 bytes unsigned integer in big endian (i.e. network byte order) form. The same holds true for the '''CK_OTP_COUNTER '''value in the '''CK_OTP_PARAM '''structure. The '''CKA_OTP_COUNTER '''value may be set at key generation; however, some tokens may set it to a fixed initial value. Depending on the token’s security policy, this value may not be modified and/or may not be revealed if the object has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE '''attribute set to CK_TRUE or its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE '''attribute set to CK_FALSE. The '''CKA_OTP_TIME '''value may be set at key generation; however, some tokens may set it to a fixed initial value. Depending on the token’s security policy, this value may not be modified and/or may not be revealed if the object has its '''CKA_SENSITIVE '''attribute set to CK_TRUE or its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE '''attribute set to CK_FALSE. The following is a sample template for creating an ACTI secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_OTP_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_ACTI; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “ACTI secret key object”; CK_BYTE keyId[]= {...}; CK_ULONG outputFormat = CK_OTP_FORMAT_DECIMAL; CK_ULONG outputLength = 6; CK_DATE endDate = {...}; CK_BYTE counterValue[8] = {0}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_END_DATE, &endDate, sizeof(endDate)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SIGN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VERIFY, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_ID, keyId, sizeof(keyId)}, {CKA_OTP_FORMAT, &outputFormat, sizeof(outputFormat)}, {CKA_OTP_LENGTH, &outputLength, sizeof(outputLength)}, {CKA_OTP_COUNTER, counterValue, sizeof(counterValue)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; ==== ACTI key generation ==== The ACTI key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_ACTI_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for the ACTI algorithm. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates ACTI keys with a particular set of attributes as specified in the template for the key. The mechanism contributes at least the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_VALUE '''and '''CKA_VALUE_LEN '''attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the ACTI key type may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize ''and ''ulMaxKeySize ''fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure specify the supported range of ACTI key sizes, in bytes. === ACTI OTP generation and validation === '''CKM_ACTI '''is the mechanism for the retrieval and verification of ACTI OTP values. The mechanism takes a pointer to a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS '''structure as a parameter. When signing or verifying using the''' CKM_ACTI '''mechanism, ''pData ''shall be set to NULL_PTR and ''ulDataLen ''shall be set to 0. When verifying an OTP value using the '''CKM_ACTI '''mechanism, ''pSignature ''shall be set to the OTP value itself, e.g. the value of the '''CK_OTP_VALUE '''component of a '''CK_OTP_PARAMS '''structure in the case of an earlier call to '''C_Sign'''. == CT-KIP == === Principles of Operation ===
[[Image:]]
'''Figure 4: PKCS #11 and CT-KIP integration'''
Figure 3 shows an integration of PKCS #11 into an application that generates cryptographic keys through the use of CT-KIP. The application invokes '''C_DeriveKey''' to derive a key of a particular type on the token. The key may subsequently be used as a basis to e.g., generate one-time password values. The application communicates with a CT-KIP server that participates in the key derivation and stores a copy of the key in its database. The key is transferred to the server in wrapped form, after a call to '''C_WrapKey'''. The server authenticates itself to the client and the client verifies the authentication by calls to '''C_Verify'''. === Mechanisms === The following table shows, for the mechanisms defined in this document, their support by different cryptographic operations. For any particular token, of course, a particular operation may well support only a subset of the mechanisms listed. There is also no guarantee that a token that supports one mechanism for some operation supports any other mechanism for any other operation (or even supports that same mechanism for any other operation).

The structure is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_KIP_PARAMS { CK_MECHANISM_PTR pMechanism; CK_OBJECT_HANDLE hKey; CK_BYTE_PTR pSeed; CK_ULONG ulSeedLen; } CK_KIP_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''pMechanism''pointer to the underlying cryptographic mechanism (e.g. AES, SHA-256), see further 3, Appendix D ''hKey''handle to a key that will contribute to the entropy of the derived key (CKM_KIP_DERIVE) or will be used in the MAC operation (CKM_KIP_MAC) ''pSeed''pointer to an input seed ''ulSeedLen''length in bytes of the input seed '''CK_KIP_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_KIP_PARAMS''' structure. === CT-KIP key derivation === The CT-KIP key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KIP_DERIVE''', is a key derivation mechanism that is capable of generating secret keys of potentially any type, subject to token limitations. It takes a parameter of type '''CK_KIP_PARAMS''' which allows for the passing of the desired underlying cryptographic mechanism as well as some other data. In particular, when the ''hKey'' parameter is a handle to an existing key, that key will be used in the key derivation in addition to the ''hBaseKey'' of '''C_DeriveKey'''. The ''pSeed'' parameter may be used to seed the key derivation operation. The mechanism derives a secret key with a particular set of attributes as specified in the attributes of the template for the key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''' and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the key type may be specified in the template for the key, or else will be assigned default initial values. Since the mechanism is generic, the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute should be set in the template, if the key is to be used with a particular mechanism. === CT-KIP key wrap and key unwrap === The CT-KIP key wrap and unwrap mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KIP_WRAP''', is a key wrap mechanism that is capable of wrapping and unwrapping generic secret keys. It takes a parameter of type '''CK_KIP_PARAMS''', which allows for the passing of the desired underlying cryptographic mechanism as well as some other data. It does not make use of the ''hKey'' parameter of '''CK_KIP_PARAMS'''. === CT-KIP signature generation === The CT-KIP signature (MAC) mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KIP_MAC''', is a mechanism used to produce a message authentication code of arbitrary length. The keys it uses are secret keys. It takes a parameter of type '''CK_KIP_PARAMS''', which allows for the passing of the desired underlying cryptographic mechanism as well as some other data. The mechanism does not make use of the ''pSeed'' and the ''ulSeedLen'' parameters of '''CT_KIP_PARAMS'''. This mechanism produces a MAC of the length specified by ''pulSignatureLen ''parameter in calls to '''C_Sign'''. If a call to '''C_Sign''' with this mechanism fails, then no output will be generated. == GOST == '''Table 21, Mechanisms vs. Functions ''' The remainder of this section will present in detail the mechanisms and the parameters which are supplied to them. {| class="prettytable" | '''Mechanism''' | colspan="7" |

It does not have a parameter. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE '''attributes to the new key.

It does not have a parameter. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping ('''C_WrapKey'''), the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to block size so that the resulting length is a multiple of the block size. For unwrapping ('''C_UnwrapKey'''), the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE '''attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN '''attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the new key.

Encryption’s parameters are specified in object identifier of attribute '''CKA_GOST28147_PARAMS'''. It has a parameter, a 8-byte initialization vector. This parameter may be omitted then a zero initialization vector is used. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping ('''C_WrapKey'''), the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the key that is wrapped. For unwrapping ('''C_UnwrapKey'''), the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the new key.

MACing parameters are specified in object identifier of attribute '''CKA_GOST28147_PARAMS'''. The output bytes from this mechanism are taken from the start of the final GOST 28147‑89 cipher block produced in the MACing process. It has a parameter, a 8-byte MAC initialization vector. This parameter may be omitted then a zero initialization vector is used.

Its purpose is to encrypt and decrypt keys have been generated by key generation mechanism for GOST 28147‑89. For wrapping ('''C_WrapKey'''), the mechanism first computes MAC from the value of the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the key that is wrapped and then encrypts in ECB mode the value of the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the key that is wrapped. The result is 32 bytes of the key that is wrapped and 4 bytes of MAC. For unwrapping ('''C_UnwrapKey'''), the mechanism first decrypts in ECB mode the 32 bytes of the key that was wrapped and then computes MAC from the unwrapped key. Then compared together 4 bytes MAC has computed and 4 bytes MAC of the input. If these two MACs do not match the wrapped key is disallowed. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the unwrapped key. It has a parameter, a 8-byte MAC initialization vector. This parameter may be omitted then a zero initialization vector is used.

For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure are not used. ==== Common key derivation with assistance of GOST R 34.10-2001 keys ==== Common key derivation, denoted '''CKM_GOSTR3410_DERIVE, '''is a mechanism for key derivation with assistance of GOST R 34.10‑2001 private and public keys. The key of the mechanism must be of object class '''CKO_DOMAIN_PARAMETERS''' and''' '''key type '''CKK_GOSTR3410'''. An algorithm for key derivation from [RFC 4357] (section 5.2) must be used. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the new private key. All other attributes must be specified in a template for creating private key object. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO '''structure are not used. = Mechanisms 2 = A mechanism specifies precisely how a certain cryptographic process is to be performed. The following table shows which Cryptoki mechanisms are supported by different cryptographic operations. For any particular token, of course, a particular operation may well support only a subset of the mechanisms listed. There is also no guarantee that a token which supports one mechanism for some operation supports any other mechanism for any other operation (or even supports that same mechanism for any other operation). For example, even if a token is able to create RSA digital signatures with the '''CKM_RSA_PKCS''' mechanism, it may or may not be the case that the same token can also perform RSA encryption with '''CKM_RSA_PKCS'''.

The remainder of this section will present in detail the mechanisms supported by Cryptoki and the parameters which are supplied to them. In general, if a mechanism makes no mention of the ''ulMinKeyLen'' and ''ulMaxKeyLen'' fields of the CK_MECHANISM_INFO structure, then those fields have no meaning for that particular mechanism. === FORTEZZA timestamp === The FORTEZZA timestamp mechanism, denoted '''CKM_FORTEZZA_TIMESTAMP''', is a mechanism for single-part signatures and verification. The signatures it produces and verifies are DSA digital signatures over the provided hash value and the current time. It has no parameters. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table. The input and output data may begin at the same location in memory.

For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of DSA prime sizes, in bits. == KEA == === Definitions === This section defines the key type “CKK_KEA” for type CK_KEY_TYPE as used in the CKA_KEY_TYPE attribute of key objects. Mechanisms: CKM_KEA_KEY_PAIR_GEN CKM_KEA_KEY_DERIVE === KEA mechanism parameters === * '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS; CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS''' is a structure that provides the parameters to the '''CKM_KEA_DERIVE''' mechanism. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS { CK_BBOOL isSender; CK_ULONG ulRandomLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pRandomA; CK_BYTE_PTR pRandomB; CK_ULONG ulPublicDataLen; CK_BYTE_PTR pPublicData; } CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''isSender''Option for generating the key (called a TEK). The value is CK_TRUE if the sender (originator) generates the TEK, CK_FALSE if the recipient is regenerating the TEK. ''ulRandomLen''size of random Ra and Rb, in bytes ''pRandomA'' pointer to Ra data ''pRandomB''pointer to Rb data ''ulPublicDataLen'' other party’s KEA public key size ''pPublicData''pointer to other party’s KEA public key value '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS'''. === KEA public key objects === KEA public key objects (object class '''CKO_PUBLIC_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_KEA''') hold KEA public keys. The following table defines the KEA public key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 33, KEA Public Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_PRIME1,3 | Big integer | Prime ''p'' (512 to 1024 bits, in steps of 64 bits) |- | CKA_SUBPRIME1,3 | Big integer | Subprime ''q'' (160 bits) |- | CKA_BASE1,3 | Big integer | Base ''g ''(512 to 1024 bits, in steps of 64 bits) |- | CKA_VALUE1,4 | Big integer | Public value ''y'' |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''' and '''CKA_BASE''' attribute values are collectively the “KEA domain parameters”. The following is a sample template for creating a KEA public key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PUBLIC_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_KEA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A KEA public key object”; CK_BYTE prime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE subprime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE base[] = {...}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_PRIME, prime, sizeof(prime)}, {CKA_SUBPRIME, subprime, sizeof(subprime)}, {CKA_BASE, base, sizeof(base)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === KEA private key objects === KEA private key objects (object class '''CKO_PRIVATE_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_KEA''') hold KEA private keys. The following table defines the KEA private key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 34, KEA Private Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_PRIME1,4,6 | Big integer | Prime ''p'' (512 to 1024 bits, in steps of 64 bits) |- | CKA_SUBPRIME1,4,6 | Big integer | Subprime ''q'' (160 bits) |- | CKA_BASE1,4,6 | Big integer | Base ''g ''(512 to 1024 bits, in steps of 64 bits) |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Big integer | Private value ''x'' |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''' and '''CKA_BASE''' attribute values are collectively the “KEA domain parameters”. Note that when generating a KEA private key, the KEA parameters are ''not'' specified in the key’s template. This is because KEA private keys are only generated as part of a KEA key ''pair'', and the KEA parameters for the pair are specified in the template for the KEA public key. The following is a sample template for creating a KEA private key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_PRIVATE_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_KEA; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A KEA private key object”; CK_BYTE subject[] = {...}; CK_BYTE id[] = {123}; CK_BYTE prime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE subprime[] = {...}; CK_BYTE base[] = {...}; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_SUBJECT, subject, sizeof(subject)}, {CKA_ID, id, sizeof(id)}, {CKA_SENSITIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_DERIVE, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_PRIME, prime, sizeof(prime)}, {CKA_SUBPRIME, subprime, sizeof(subprime)}, {CKA_BASE, base, sizeof(base)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === KEA key pair generation === The KEA key pair generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KEA_KEY_PAIR_GEN''', generates key pairs for the Key Exchange Algorithm, as defined by NIST’s “SKIPJACK and KEA Algorithm Specification Version 2.0”, 29 May 1998. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates KEA public/private key pairs with a particular prime, subprime and base, as specified in the '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''', and '''CKA_BASE''' attributes of the template for the public key. Note that this version of Cryptoki does not include a mechanism for generating these KEA domain parameters. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new public key and the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', '''CKA_PRIME''', '''CKA_SUBPRIME''', '''CKA_BASE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new private key. Other attributes supported by the KEA public and private key types (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the keys support) may also be specified in the templates for the keys, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of KEA prime sizes, in bits. === KEA key derivation === The KEA key derivation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KEA_DERIVE''', is a mechanism for key derivation based on KEA, the Key Exchange Algorithm, as defined by NIST’s “SKIPJACK and KEA Algorithm Specification Version 2.0”, 29 May 1998. It has a parameter, a '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS''' structure. This mechanism derives a secret value, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. (The truncation removes bytes from the leading end of the secret value.) The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. As defined in the Specification, KEA can be used in two different operational modes: full mode and e-mail mode. Full mode is a two-phase key derivation sequence that requires real-time parameter exchange between two parties. E-mail mode is a one-phase key derivation sequence that does not require real-time parameter exchange. By convention, e-mail mode is designated by use of a fixed value of one (1) for the KEA parameter Rb (''pRandomB''). The operation of this mechanism depends on two of the values in the supplied '''CK_KEA_DERIVE_PARAMS '''structure, as detailed in the table below. Note that, in all cases, the data buffers pointed to by the parameter structure fields ''pRandomA'' and ''pRandomB'' must be allocated by the caller prior to invoking '''C_DeriveKey'''. Also, the values pointed to by ''pRandomA'' and ''pRandomB'' are represented as Cryptoki “Big integer” data (''i.e.'', a sequence of bytes, most-significant byte first).

In these cases, any object template supplied as the '''C_DeriveKey''' ''pTemplate'' argument should be ignored. This mechanism has the following rules about key sensitivity and extractabilityNote that the rules regarding the '''CKA_SENSITIVE''', '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''', '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''', and '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes have changed in version 2.11 to match the policy used by other key derivation mechanisms such as '''CKM_SSL3_MASTER_KEY_DERIVE'''. : * The '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' and '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attributes in the template for the new key can both be specified to be either CK_TRUE or CK_FALSE. If omitted, these attributes each take on some default value. * If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will as well. If the base key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_ALWAYS_SENSITIVE''' attribute set to the same value as its '''CKA_SENSITIVE''' attribute. * Similarly, if the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_FALSE, then the derived key will, too. If the base key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to CK_TRUE, then the derived key has its '''CKA_NEVER_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute set to the ''opposite'' value from its '''CKA_EXTRACTABLE''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of KEA prime sizes, in bits. == RC2 == RC2 is a block cipher which is trademarked by RSA Security. It has a variable keysize and an additional parameter, the “effective number of bits in the RC2 search space”, which can take on values in the range 1-1024, inclusive. The effective number of bits in the RC2 search space is sometimes specified by an RC2 “version number”; this “version number” is ''not'' the same thing as the “effective number of bits”, however. There is a canonical way to convert from one to the other. === Definitions === This section defines the key type “CKK_RC2” for type CK_KEY_TYPE as used in the CKA_KEY_TYPE attribute of key objects. Mechanisms: CKM_RC2_KEY_GEN CKM_RC2_ECB CKM_RC2_CBC CKM_RC2_MAC CKM_RC2_MAC_GENERAL CKM_RC2_CBC_PAD === RC2 secret key objects === RC2 secret key objects (object class '''CKO_SECRET_KEY, '''key type '''CKK_RC2''') hold RC2 keys. The following table defines the RC2 secret key object attributes, in addition to the common attributes defined for this object class: '''Table 36, RC2 Secret Key Object Attributes''' {| class="prettytable" ! Attribute ! Data type ! Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (1 to 128 bytes) |- | CKA_VALUE_LEN2,3 | CK_ULONG | Length in bytes of key value |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes The following is a sample template for creating an RC2 secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_RC2; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “An RC2 secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === RC2 mechanism parameters === * '''CK_RC2_PARAMS; CK_RC2_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_RC2_PARAMS''' provides the parameters to the '''CKM_RC2_ECB''' and '''CKM_RC2_MAC''' mechanisms. It holds the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_RC2_PARAMS; '''CK_RC2_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_RC2_PARAMS'''. * '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS; CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS''' is a structure that provides the parameters to the '''CKM_RC2_CBC''' and '''CKM_RC2_CBC_PAD''' mechanisms. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS { CK_ULONG ulEffectiveBits; CK_BYTE iv[8]; } CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''ulEffectiveBits''the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space ''iv''the initialization vector (IV) for cipher block chaining mode '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS'''. * '''CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS; CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS''' is a structure that provides the parameters to the '''CKM_RC2_MAC_GENERAL''' mechanism. It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS { CK_ULONG ulEffectiveBits; CK_ULONG ulMacLength; } CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''ulEffectiveBits''the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space ''ulMacLength''length of the MAC produced, in bytes '''CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_RC2_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS'''. === RC2 key generation === The RC2 key generation mechanism, denoted '''CKM_RC2_KEY_GEN''', is a key generation mechanism for RSA Security’s block cipher RC2. It does not have a parameter. The mechanism generates RC2 keys with a particular length in bytes, as specified in the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template for the key. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the RC2 key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of RC2 key sizes, in bits. === RC2-ECB === RC2-ECB, denoted '''CKM_RC2_ECB''', is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping, based on RSA Security’s block cipher RC2 and electronic codebook mode as defined in FIPS PUB 81. It has a parameter, a '''CK_RC2_PARAMS''', which indicates the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to seven null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of eight. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately. For unwrapping, the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE '''attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 37, RC2-ECB: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It has a parameter, a '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS''' structure, where the first field indicates the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space, and the next field is the initialization vector for cipher block chaining mode. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with up to seven null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of eight. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length, or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately. For unwrapping, the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 38, RC2-CBC: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It has a parameter, a '''CK_RC2_CBC_PARAMS''' structure, where the first field indicates the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space, and the next field is the initialization vector. The PKCS padding in this mechanism allows the length of the plaintext value to be recovered from the ciphertext value. Therefore, when unwrapping keys with this mechanism, no value should be specified for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. In addition to being able to wrap and unwrap secret keys, this mechanism can wrap and unwrap RSA, Diffie-Hellman, X9.42 Diffie-Hellman, EC (also related to ECDSA) and DSA private keys (see Section Error: Reference source not found for details).

Meaning |- | CKA_VALUE1,4,6,7 | Byte array | Key value (always 8 bytes long) |} - Refer to table Table 15 for footnotes CDMF keys must always have their parity bits properly set in exactly the same fashion described for DES keys in FIPS PUB 46-3. Attempting to create or unwrap a CDMF key with incorrect parity will return an error. The following is a sample template for creating a CDMF secret key object: CK_OBJECT_CLASS class = CKO_SECRET_KEY; CK_KEY_TYPE keyType = CKK_CDMF; CK_UTF8CHAR label[] = “A CDMF secret key object”; CK_BYTE value[8] = {...}; CK_BBOOL true = CK_TRUE; CK_ATTRIBUTE template[] = { {CKA_CLASS, &class, sizeof(class)}, {CKA_KEY_TYPE, &keyType, sizeof(keyType)}, {CKA_TOKEN, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_LABEL, label, sizeof(label)-1}, {CKA_ENCRYPT, &true, sizeof(true)}, {CKA_VALUE, value, sizeof(value)} }; === General block cipher mechanism parameters === * '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS; CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS_PTR''' '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS''' provides the parameters to the general-length MACing mechanisms of the DES, DES3 (triple-DES), CAST, CAST3, CAST128 (CAST5), IDEA, CDMF and AES ciphers. It also provides the parameters to the general-length HMACing mechanisms (i.e. MD2, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, RIPEMD-128 and RIPEMD-160) and the two SSL 3.0 MACing mechanisms (i.e. MD5 and SHA-1). It holds the length of the MAC that these mechanisms will produce. It is defined as follows: typedef CK_ULONG CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS; '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_MAC_GENERAL_PARAMS'''. === General block cipher key generation === Cipher has a key generation mechanism, “ key generation”, denoted '''CKM__KEY_GEN.''' This mechanism does not have a parameter. The mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to the new key. Other attributes supported by the key type (specifically, the flags indicating which functions the key supports) may be specified in the template for the key, or else are assigned default initial values. When DES keys or CDMF keys are generated, their parity bits are set properly, as specified in FIPS PUB 46-3. Similarly, when a triple-DES key is generated, each of the DES keys comprising it has its parity bits set properly. When DES or CDMF keys are generated, it is token-dependent whether or not it is possible for “weak” or “semi-weak” keys to be generated. Similarly, when triple-DES keys are generated, it is token dependent whether or not it is possible for any of the component DES keys to be “weak” or “semi-weak” keys. When CAST, CAST3, or CAST128 (CAST5) keys are generated, the template for the secret key must specify a '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. For this mechanism, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure may or may not be used. The CAST, CAST3, and CAST128 (CAST5) ciphers have variable key sizes, and so for the key generation mechanisms for these ciphers, the ''ulMinKeySize'' and ''ulMaxKeySize'' fields of the '''CK_MECHANISM_INFO''' structure specify the supported range of key sizes, in bytes. For the DES, DES3 (triple-DES), IDEA, and CDMF ciphers, these fields are not used. === General block cipher ECB === Cipher has an electronic codebook mechanism, “-ECB”, denoted '''CKM__ECB'''. It is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping with . It does not have a parameter. This mechanism can wrap and unwrap any secret key. Of course, a particular token may not be able to wrap/unwrap every secret key that it supports. For wrapping, the mechanism encrypts the value of the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the key that is wrapped, padded on the trailing end with null bytes so that the resulting length is a multiple of ’s blocksize. The output data is the same length as the padded input data. It does not wrap the key type, key length or any other information about the key; the application must convey these separately. For unwrapping, the mechanism decrypts the wrapped key, and truncates the result according to the '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''' attribute of the template and, if it has one, and the key type supports it, the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute of the template. The mechanism contributes the result as the '''CKA_VALUE''' attribute of the new key; other attributes required by the key type must be specified in the template. Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table: '''Table 326, General Block Cipher ECB: Key And Data Length''' {| class="prettytable" ! Function ! Key type !

It is a mechanism for single- and multiple-part encryption and decryption; key wrapping; and key unwrapping with . All ciphertext is padded with PKCS padding. It has a parameter, an initialization vector for cipher block chaining mode. The initialization vector has the same length as ’s blocksize. The PKCS padding in this mechanism allows the length of the plaintext value to be recovered from the ciphertext value. Therefore, when unwrapping keys with this mechanism, no value should be specified for the '''CKA_VALUE_LEN''' attribute. In addition to being able to wrap and unwrap secret keys, this mechanism can wrap and unwrap RSA, Diffie-Hellman, X9.42 Diffie-Hellman, EC (also related to ECDSA) and DSA private keys (see Section Error: Reference source not found for details). The entries in the table below for data length constraints when wrapping and unwrapping keys do not apply to wrapping and unwrapping private keys.

It can wrap and unwrap SKIPJACK, BATON, and JUNIPER keys. It has no parameters. When used to unwrap a key, this mechanism contributes the '''CKA_CLASS''', '''CKA_KEY_TYPE''', and '''CKA_VALUE''' attributes to it. == JUNIPER == === Definitions === This section defines the key type “CKK_JUNIPER” for type CK_KEY_TYPE as used in the CKA_KEY_TYPE attribute of key objects.

The length of the CAST128 (CAST5) key generated by this mechanism may be specified in the supplied template; if it is not present in the template, it defaults to 8 bytes. == PKCS #12 password-based encryption/authentication mechanisms == The mechanisms in this section are for generating keys and IVs for performing password-based encryption or authentication. The method used to generate keys and IVs is based on a method that was specified in PKCS #12. We specify here a general method for producing various types of pseudo-random bits from a password, ''p''; a string of salt bits, ''s''; and an iteration count, ''c''. The “type” of pseudo-random bits to be produced is identified by an identification byte, ''ID'', the meaning of which will be discussed later. Let H be a hash function built around a compression function ''f: '''Z'''2u  '''Z'''2v  '''Z'''2u'' (that is, H has a chaining variable and output of length ''u'' bits, and the message input to the compression function of H is ''v'' bits). For MD2 and MD5, ''u''=128 and ''v''=512; for SHA-1, ''u''=160 and ''v''=512. We assume here that ''u'' and ''v'' are both multiples of 8, as are the lengths in bits of the password and salt strings and the number ''n'' of pseudo-random bits required. In addition, ''u'' and ''v'' are of course nonzero. # Construct a string, ''D'' (the “diversifier”), by concatenating ''v''/8 copies of ''ID''. # Concatenate copies of the salt together to create a string ''S'' of length ''v''''s/v'' bits (the final copy of the salt may be truncated to create ''S''). Note that if the salt is the empty string, then so is ''S''. # Concatenate copies of the password together to create a string ''P'' of length ''v''''p/v'' bits (the final copy of the password may be truncated to create ''P''). Note that if the password is the empty string, then so is ''P''. # Set ''I''=''S''||''P'' to be the concatenation of ''S'' and ''P''. # Set ''j''=''n''/''u''. # For ''i''=1, 2, …, ''j'', do the following: # Set ''Ai''=H''c''(''D''||''I''), the ''c''th hash of ''D''||''I''. That is, compute the hash of ''D''||''I''; compute the hash of that hash; etc.; continue in this fashion until a total of ''c'' hashes have been computed, each on the result of the previous hash. # Concatenate copies of ''Ai'' to create a string ''B'' of length ''v'' bits (the final copy of ''Ai'' may be truncated to create ''B''). # Treating ''I'' as a concatenation ''I''0, ''I''1, …, ''Ik''-1 of ''v''-bit blocks, where ''k''=''s/v''+''p/v'', modify ''I'' by setting ''Ij''=(''Ij''+''B''+1) mod 2''v'' for each ''j''. To perform this addition, treat each ''v''-bit block as a binary number represented most-significant bit first. # Concatenate ''A''1, ''A''2, …, ''Aj'' together to form a pseudo-random bit string, ''A''. # Use the first ''n'' bits of ''A'' as the output of this entire process. When the password-based encryption mechanisms presented in this section are used to generate a key and IV (if needed) from a password, salt, and an iteration count, the above algorithm is used. To generate a key, the identifier byte ''ID'' is set to the value 1; to generate an IV, the identifier byte ''ID'' is set to the value 2. When the password based authentication mechanism presented in this section is used to generate a key from a password, salt, and an iteration count, the above algorithm is used.

The method used to generate the key is described above . It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process.

The method used to generate the key is described above. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process. The parameter also has a field to hold the location of an application-supplied buffer which will receive an IV; for this mechanism, the contents of this field are ignored, since RC4 does not require an IV. The key produced by this mechanism will typically be used for performing password-based encryption. === SHA-1-PBE for 128-bit RC2-CBC === SHA-1-PBE for 128-bit RC2-CBC, denoted '''CKM_PBE_SHA1_RC2_128_CBC''', is a mechanism used for generating a 128-bit RC2 secret key and IV from a password and a salt value by using the SHA-1 digest algorithm and an iteration count. The method used to generate the key and IV is described above. It has a parameter, a '''CK_PBE_PARAMS''' structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism. When the key and IV generated by this mechanism are used to encrypt or decrypt, the effective number of bits in the RC2 search space should be set to 128.

It is defined as follows: typedef struct CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS { CK_BYTE bBC; CK_BYTE_PTR pX; CK_ULONG ulXLen; } CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS; The fields of the structure have the following meanings: ''bBC''block contents byte ''pX''concatenation of hash of plaintext data (if present) and extra data (if present) ''ulXLen''length in bytes of concatenation of hash of plaintext data (if present) and extra data (if present). 0 if neither is present '''CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS_PTR''' is a pointer to a '''CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS'''. === OAEP key wrapping for SET === The OAEP key wrapping for SET mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP''', is a mechanism for wrapping and unwrapping a DES key with an RSA key. The hash of some plaintext data and/or some extra data may optionally be wrapped together with the DES key. This mechanism is defined in the SET protocol specifications. It takes a parameter, a '''CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS''' structure. This structure holds the “Block Contents” byte of the data and the concatenation of the hash of plaintext data (if present) and the extra data to be wrapped (if present). If neither the hash nor the extra data is present, this is indicated by the ''ulXLen'' field having the value 0. When this mechanism is used to unwrap a key, the concatenation of the hash of plaintext data (if present) and the extra data (if present) is returned following the convention described in Section Error: Reference source not found on producing output. Note that if the inputs to '''C_UnwrapKey''' are such that the extra data is not returned (''e.g.'', the buffer supplied in the '''CK_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP_PARAMS''' structure is NULL_PTR), then the unwrapped key object will not be created, either. Be aware that when this mechanism is used to unwrap a key, the ''bBC'' and ''pX'' fields of the parameter supplied to the mechanism may be modified. If an application uses '''C_UnwrapKey''' with '''CKM_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP''', it may be preferable for it simply to allocate a 128-byte buffer for the concatenation of the hash of plaintext data and the extra data (this concatenation is never larger than 128 bytes), rather than calling '''C_UnwrapKey''' twice. Each call of '''C_UnwrapKey''' with '''CKM_KEY_WRAP_SET_OAEP''' requires an RSA decryption operation to be performed, and this computational overhead can be avoided by this means. == LYNKS == === Definitions === Mechanisms: CKM_KEY_WRAP_LYNKS === LYNKS key wrapping === The LYNKS key wrapping mechanism, denoted '''CKM_KEY_WRAP_LYNKS''', is a mechanism for wrapping and unwrapping secret keys with DES keys. It can wrap any 8-byte secret key, and it produces a 10-byte wrapped key, containing a cryptographic checksum. It does not have a parameter. To wrap a 8-byte secret key ''K'' with a DES key ''W'', this mechanism performs the following steps: # Initialize two 16-bit integers, ''sum1'' and ''sum2'', to 0. # Loop through the bytes of ''K'' from first to last. # Set ''sum1''='' sum1''+the key byte (treat the key byte as a number in the range 0-255). # Set ''sum2''='' sum2''+'' sum1''. # Encrypt ''K'' with ''W'' in ECB mode, obtaining an encrypted key, ''E''. # Concatenate the last 6 bytes of ''E'' with ''sum2'', representing ''sum2'' most-significant bit first. The result is an 8-byte block, ''T''. # Encrypt ''T'' with ''W'' in ECB mode, obtaining an encrypted checksum, ''C''. # Concatenate ''E'' with the last 2 bytes of ''C'' to obtain the wrapped key. When unwrapping a key with this mechanism, if the cryptographic checksum does not check out properly, an error is returned. In addition, if a DES key or CDMF key is unwrapped with this mechanism, the parity bits on the wrapped key must be set appropriately. If they are not set properly, an error is returned. = Cryptoki tips and reminders = In this section, we clarify, review, and/or emphasize a few odds and ends about how Cryptoki works. == Operations, sessions, and threads == In Cryptoki, there are several different types of operations which can be “active” in a session. An active operation is essentially one which takes more than one Cryptoki function call to perform. The types of active operations are object searching; encryption; decryption; message-digesting; signature with appendix; signature with recovery; verification with appendix; and verification with recovery. A given session can have 0, 1, or 2 operations active at a time. It can only have 2 operations active simultaneously if the token supports this; moreover, those two operations must be one of the four following pairs of operations: digesting and encryption; decryption and digesting; signing and encryption; decryption and verification. If an application attempts to initialize an operation (make it active) in a session, but this cannot be accomplished because of some other active operation(s), the application receives the error value CKR_OPERATION_ACTIVE. This error value can also be received if a session has an active operation and the application attempts to use that session to perform any of various operations which do not become “active”, but which require cryptographic processing, such as using the token’s random number generator, or generating/wrapping/unwrapping/deriving a key. To abandon an active operation an application may have to complete the operation and discard the result. Closing the session will also have this effect. Alternatively. the library may allow active operations to be abandoned by the application, simply by allowing initialization for some other operation. In this case CKR_OPERATION_ACTIVE will not be returned but the previous active operation will be unusable. Different threads of an application should never share sessions, unless they are extremely careful not to make function calls at the same time. This is true even if the Cryptoki library was initialized with locking enabled for thread-safety. == Multiple Application Access Behavior == When multiple applications, or multiple threads within an application, are accessing a set of common objects the issue of object protection becomes important. This is especially the case when application A activates an operation using object O, and application B attempts to delete O before application A has finished the operation. Unfortunately, variation in device capabilities makes an absolute behavior specification impractical. General guidelines are presented here for object protection behavior. Whenever possible, deleting an object in one application should not cause that object to become unavailable to another application or thread that is using the object in an active operation until that operation is complete. For instance, application A has begun a signature operation with private key P and application B attempts to delete P while the signature is in progress. In this case, one of two things should happen. The object is deleted from the device but the operation is allow to complete because the operation uses a temporary copy of the object, or the delete operation blocks until the signature operation has completed. If neither of these actions can be supported by an implementation, then the error code CKR_OBJECT_HANDLE_INVALID may be returned to application A to indicate that the key being used to perform its active operation has been deleted. Whenever possible, changing the value of an object attribute should impact the behavior of active operations in other applications or threads. If this can not be supported by an implementation, then the appropriate error code indicating the reason for the failure should be returned to the application with the active operation. == Objects, attributes, and templates == In general, a Cryptoki function which requires a template for an object needs the template to specify—either explicitly or implicitly—any attributes that are not specified elsewhere. If a template specifies a particular attribute more than once, the function can return CKR_TEMPLATE_INVALID or it can choose a particular value of the attribute from among those specified and use that value. In any event, object attributes are always single-valued. == Signing with recovery == Signing with recovery is a general alternative to ordinary digital signatures (“signing with appendix”) which is supported by certain mechanisms. Recall that for ordinary digital signatures, a signature of a message is computed as some function of the message and the signer’s private key; this signature can then be used (together with the message and the signer’s public key) as input to the verification process, which yields a simple “signature valid/signature invalid” decision. Signing with recovery also creates a signature from a message and the signer’s private key. However, to verify this signature, no message is required as input. Only the signature and the signer’s public key are input to the verification process, and the verification process outputs either “signature invalid” or—if the signature is valid—the original message. Consider a simple example with the '''CKM_RSA_X_509''' mechanism. Here, a message is a byte string which we will consider to be a number modulo ''n'' (the signer’s RSA modulus). When this mechanism is used for ordinary digital signatures (signatures with appendix), a signature is computed by raising the message to the signer’s private exponent modulo ''n''. To verify this signature, a verifier raises the signature to the signer’s public exponent modulo ''n'', and accepts the signature as valid if and only if the result matches the original message. If '''CKM_RSA_X_509''' is used to create signatures with recovery, the signatures are produced in exactly the same fashion. For this particular mechanism, ''any'' number modulo ''n'' is a valid signature. To recover the message from a signature, the signature is raised to the signer’s public exponent modulo ''n''. = Manifest constants = #define CKA_AC_ISSUER 0x00000083 #define CKA_ALLOWED_MECHANISMS

Token profiles = This appendix describes “profiles,” ''i.e.'', sets of mechanisms, which a token should support for various common types of application. It is expected that these sets would be standardized as parts of the various applications, for instance within a list of requirements on the module that provides cryptographic services to the application (which may be a Cryptoki token in some cases). Thus, these profiles are intended for reference only at this point, and are not part of this standard. The following table summarizes the mechanisms relevant to two common types of applications: '''Table B-1, Mechanisms and profiles''' {| class="prettytable" ! ! colspan="2" |

The relevant mechanisms include the following: DSA key generation (512-1024 bits) DSA (512-1024 bits) SHA-1 == Cellular Digital Packet Data == Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) is a set of protocols for wireless communication. The basic set of mechanisms to support CDPD applications includes the following: Diffie-Hellman key generation (256-1024 bits) Diffie-Hellman key derivation (256-1024 bits) RC4 key generation (40-128 bits) RC4 (40-128 bits) (The initial CDPD security specification limits the size of the Diffie-Hellman key to 256 bits, but it has been recommended that the size be increased to at least 512 bits.) == Other profiles == The reader is also informed of the presence of other profiles of PKCS #11 v2. – See [PKCS #11-C] and [PKCS #11-P] = Comparison of Cryptoki and other APIs = This appendix compares Cryptoki with the following cryptographic APIs: * ANSI N13-94 - Guideline X9.TG-12-199X, Using Tessera in Financial Systems: An Application Programming Interface, April 29, 1994 * X/Open GCS-API - Generic Cryptographic Service API, Draft 2, February 14, 1995 == FORTEZZA CIPG, Rev. 1.52 == This document defines an API to the FORTEZZA PCMCIA Crypto Card. It is at a level similar to Cryptoki.

It is at a higher level than Cryptoki. The following table lists the GCS-API functions with the Cryptoki functions used to implement the functions. Note that full support of GCS-API is left for future versions of Cryptoki. '''Table C-2, GCS-API vs. Cryptoki''' {| class="prettytable" ! GCS-API !
