Detailed Description

template<class T>
class Poly1305< T >

Poly1305 message authentication code.

Template Parameters

T	class derived from BlockCipherDocumentation with 16-byte key and 16-byte blocksize

Poly1305-AES is a state-of-the-art message-authentication code suitable for a wide variety of applications. Poly1305-AES computes a 16-byte authenticator of a variable-length message, using a 16-byte AES key, a 16-byte additional key, and a 16-byte nonce.

The key is 32 bytes and a concatenation key = {k,s}, where k is the AES key and r is additional key that gets clamped. The key is clamped internally so there is no need to perform the operation before setting the key.

Each message must have a unique security context, which means either the key or nonce must be changed after each message. It can be accomplished in one of two ways. First, you can create a new Poly1305 object each time its needed.

  SecByteBlock key(32), nonce(16);
  prng.GenerateBlock(key, key.size());
  prng.GenerateBlock(nonce, nonce.size());

  Poly1305<AES> poly1305(key, key.size(), nonce, nonce.size());
  poly1305.Update(...);
  poly1305.Final(...);

Second, you can create a Poly1305 object, reuse the key, and set a fresh nonce for each message. The second and subsequent nonces can be generated using GetNextIV().

  SecByteBlock key(32), nonce(16);
  prng.GenerateBlock(key, key.size());
  prng.GenerateBlock(nonce, nonce.size());

  // First message
  Poly1305<AES> poly1305(key, key.size());
  poly1305.Resynchronize(nonce);
  poly1305.Update(...);
  poly1305.Final(...);

  // Second message
  poly1305.GetNextIV(prng, nonce);
  poly1305.Resynchronize(nonce);
  poly1305.Update(...);
  poly1305.Final(...);
  ...

Warning: Each message must have a unique security context. The Poly1305 class does not enforce a fresh key or nonce for each message. The source code will assert in debug builds to alert of nonce reuse. No action is taken in release builds.

◆ Poly1305()

template<class T >

Poly1305< T >::Poly1305	(	const byte *	key,
		size_t	keyLength = `DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH`,
		const byte *	nonce = `NULL`,
		size_t	nonceLength = `0`
	)

inline

Construct a Poly1305.

Parameters

key	a byte array used to key the cipher
keyLength	the size of the byte array, in bytes
nonce	a byte array used to key the cipher
nonceLength	the size of the byte array, in bytes

The key is 32 bytes and a concatenation key = {k,s}, where k is the AES key and r is additional key that gets clamped. The key is clamped internally so there is no need to perform the operation before setting the key.

Each message requires a unique security context. You can use GetNextIV() and Resynchronize() to set a new nonce under a key for a message.
