AES-CFB

Cipher AES has a cipher feedback mode, AES-CFB, denoted CKM_AES_CFB8, CKM_AES_CFB64, and CKM_AES_CFB128. It is a mechanism for single and multiple-part encryption and decryption with AES. AES-OFB mode is described [NIST sp800-38a].

It has a parameter, an initialization vector for this mode. The initialization vector has the same length as the blocksize.Constraints on key types and the length of data are summarized in the following table:

Table 241, AES-CFB: Key And Data Length
Function Key type
Input length
Output length
Comments
C_Encrypt AES
any
same as input length
no final part
C_Decrypt AES
any
same as input length
no final part

For this mechanism the CK_MECHANISM_INFO structure is as specified for CBC mode.
