Detailed Description

This file contains AES definitions and functions.

     The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) specifies a FIPS-approved
     cryptographic algorithm that can be used to protect electronic
     data.

     The AES algorithm is a symmetric block cipher that can
     encrypt and decrypt information. For more information, see
     <em>FIPS Publication 197: Advanced Encryption Standard</em> and
     <em>ISO/IEC 18033-2:2006: Information technology -- Security
     techniques -- Encryption algorithms -- Part 2: Asymmetric
     ciphers</em>.

     The AES-XTS block mode is standardized by NIST SP 800-38E
     <https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/legacy/sp/nistspecialpublication800-38e.pdf>
     and described in detail by IEEE P1619
     <https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/servlet/opac?punumber=4375278>.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
int  mode,
size_t  length,
unsigned char  iv[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-CBC encryption or decryption operation on full blocks.

It performs the operation defined in the mode parameter (encrypt/decrypt), on the input data buffer defined in the input parameter.

It can be called as many times as needed, until all the input data is processed. mbedtls_aes_init(), and either mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc() or mbedtls_aes_setkey_dec() must be called before the first call to this API with the same context.

Note
This function operates on full blocks, that is, the input size must be a multiple of the AES block size of 16 Bytes.
Upon exit, the content of the IV is updated so that you can call the same function again on the next block(s) of data and get the same result as if it was encrypted in one call. This allows a "streaming" usage. If you need to retain the contents of the IV, you should either save it manually or use the cipher module instead.
Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
modeThe AES operation: MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT or MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.
lengthThe length of the input data in Bytes. This must be a multiple of the block size (16 Bytes).
ivInitialization vector (updated after use). It must be a readable and writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and of size length Bytes.
outputThe buffer holding the output data. It must be writeable and of size length Bytes.
Returns
0 on success.
MBEDTLS_ERR_AES_INVALID_INPUT_LENGTH on failure.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_cfb128()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_cfb128 ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
int  mode,
size_t  length,
size_t iv_off,
unsigned char  iv[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-CFB128 encryption or decryption operation.

It performs the operation defined in the mode parameter (encrypt or decrypt), on the input data buffer defined in the input parameter.

For CFB, you must set up the context with mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc(), regardless of whether you are performing an encryption or decryption operation, that is, regardless of the mode parameter. This is because CFB mode uses the same key schedule for encryption and decryption.

Note
Upon exit, the content of the IV is updated so that you can call the same function again on the next block(s) of data and get the same result as if it was encrypted in one call. This allows a "streaming" usage. If you need to retain the contents of the IV, you must either save it manually or use the cipher module instead.
Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
modeThe AES operation: MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT or MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.
lengthThe length of the input data in Bytes.
iv_offThe offset in IV (updated after use). It must point to a valid size_t.
ivThe initialization vector (updated after use). It must be a readable and writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and of size length Bytes.
outputThe buffer holding the output data. It must be writeable and of size length Bytes.
Returns
0 on success.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_cfb8()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_cfb8 ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
int  mode,
size_t  length,
unsigned char  iv[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-CFB8 encryption or decryption operation.

It performs the operation defined in the mode parameter (encrypt/decrypt), on the input data buffer defined in the input parameter.

Due to the nature of CFB, you must use the same key schedule for both encryption and decryption operations. Therefore, you must use the context initialized with mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc() for both MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT and MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.

Note
Upon exit, the content of the IV is updated so that you can call the same function again on the next block(s) of data and get the same result as if it was encrypted in one call. This allows a "streaming" usage. If you need to retain the contents of the IV, you should either save it manually or use the cipher module instead.
Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
modeThe AES operation: MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT or MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT
lengthThe length of the input data.
ivThe initialization vector (updated after use). It must be a readable and writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and of size length Bytes.
outputThe buffer holding the output data. It must be writeable and of size length Bytes.
Returns
0 on success.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_ctr()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_ctr ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
size_t  length,
size_t nc_off,
unsigned char  nonce_counter[16],
unsigned char  stream_block[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-CTR encryption or decryption operation.

This function performs the operation defined in the mode parameter (encrypt/decrypt), on the input data buffer defined in the input parameter.

Due to the nature of CTR, you must use the same key schedule for both encryption and decryption operations. Therefore, you must use the context initialized with mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc() for both MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT and MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.

Warning
You must never reuse a nonce value with the same key. Doing so would void the encryption for the two messages encrypted with the same nonce and key.

There are two common strategies for managing nonces with CTR:

  1. You can handle everything as a single message processed over successive calls to this function. In that case, you want to set nonce_counter and nc_off to 0 for the first call, and then preserve the values of nonce_counter, nc_off and stream_block across calls to this function as they will be updated by this function.

With this strategy, you must not encrypt more than 2**128 blocks of data with the same key.

  1. You can encrypt separate messages by dividing the nonce_counter buffer in two areas: the first one used for a per-message nonce, handled by yourself, and the second one updated by this function internally.

For example, you might reserve the first 12 bytes for the per-message nonce, and the last 4 bytes for internal use. In that case, before calling this function on a new message you need to set the first 12 bytes of nonce_counter to your chosen nonce value, the last 4 to 0, and nc_off to 0 (which will cause stream_block to be ignored). That way, you can encrypt at most 2**96 messages of up to 2**32 blocks each with the same key.

The per-message nonce (or information sufficient to reconstruct it) needs to be communicated with the ciphertext and must be unique. The recommended way to ensure uniqueness is to use a message counter. An alternative is to generate random nonces, but this limits the number of messages that can be securely encrypted: for example, with 96-bit random nonces, you should not encrypt more than 2**32 messages with the same key.

Note that for both stategies, sizes are measured in blocks and that an AES block is 16 bytes.

Warning
Upon return, stream_block contains sensitive data. Its content must not be written to insecure storage and should be securely discarded as soon as it's no longer needed.
Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
lengthThe length of the input data.
nc_offThe offset in the current stream_block, for resuming within the current cipher stream. The offset pointer should be 0 at the start of a stream. It must point to a valid size_t.
nonce_counterThe 128-bit nonce and counter. It must be a readable-writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
stream_blockThe saved stream block for resuming. This is overwritten by the function. It must be a readable-writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and of size length Bytes.
outputThe buffer holding the output data. It must be writeable and of size length Bytes.
Returns
0 on success.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_ecb()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_ecb ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
int  mode,
const unsigned char  input[16],
unsigned char  output[16] 
)

This function performs an AES single-block encryption or decryption operation.

It performs the operation defined in the mode parameter (encrypt or decrypt), on the input data buffer defined in the input parameter.

mbedtls_aes_init(), and either mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc() or mbedtls_aes_setkey_dec() must be called before the first call to this API with the same context.

Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
modeThe AES operation: MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT or MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and at least 16 Bytes long.
outputThe buffer where the output data will be written. It must be writeable and at least 16 Bytes long.
Returns
0 on success.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_ofb()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_ofb ( mbedtls_aes_context ctx,
size_t  length,
size_t iv_off,
unsigned char  iv[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-OFB (Output Feedback Mode) encryption or decryption operation.

For OFB, you must set up the context with mbedtls_aes_setkey_enc(), regardless of whether you are performing an encryption or decryption operation. This is because OFB mode uses the same key schedule for encryption and decryption.

The OFB operation is identical for encryption or decryption, therefore no operation mode needs to be specified.

Note
Upon exit, the content of iv, the Initialisation Vector, is updated so that you can call the same function again on the next block(s) of data and get the same result as if it was encrypted in one call. This allows a "streaming" usage, by initialising iv_off to 0 before the first call, and preserving its value between calls.

For non-streaming use, the iv should be initialised on each call to a unique value, and iv_off set to 0 on each call.

If you need to retain the contents of the initialisation vector, you must either save it manually or use the cipher module instead.

Warning
For the OFB mode, the initialisation vector must be unique every encryption operation. Reuse of an initialisation vector will compromise security.
Parameters
ctxThe AES context to use for encryption or decryption. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
lengthThe length of the input data.
iv_offThe offset in IV (updated after use). It must point to a valid size_t.
ivThe initialization vector (updated after use). It must be a readable and writeable buffer of 16 Bytes.
inputThe buffer holding the input data. It must be readable and of size length Bytes.
outputThe buffer holding the output data. It must be writeable and of size length Bytes.
Returns
0 on success.

◆ mbedtls_aes_crypt_xts()

int mbedtls_aes_crypt_xts ( mbedtls_aes_xts_context ctx,
int  mode,
size_t  length,
const unsigned char  data_unit[16],
const unsigned char input,
unsigned char output 
)

This function performs an AES-XTS encryption or decryption operation for an entire XTS data unit.

AES-XTS encrypts or decrypts blocks based on their location as defined by a data unit number. The data unit number must be provided by data_unit.

NIST SP 800-38E limits the maximum size of a data unit to 2^20 AES blocks. If the data unit is larger than this, this function returns MBEDTLS_ERR_AES_INVALID_INPUT_LENGTH.

Parameters
ctxThe AES XTS context to use for AES XTS operations. It must be initialized and bound to a key.
modeThe AES operation: MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT or MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT.
lengthThe length of a data unit in Bytes. This can be any length between 16 bytes and 2^24 bytes inclusive (between 1 and 2^20 block cipher blocks).
data_unitThe address of the data unit encoded as an array of 16 bytes in little-endian format. For disk encryption, this is typically the index of the block device sector that contains the data.
inputThe buffer holding the input data (which is an entire data unit). This function reads length Bytes from input.
outputThe buffer holding the output data (which is an entire data unit). This function writes length Bytes to output.
Returns
0 on success.
MBEDTLS_ERR_AES_INVALID_INPUT_LENGTH if length is smaller than an AES block in size (16 Bytes) or if length is larger than 2^20 blocks (16 MiB).
