Expand description

Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman Secret.

These are ephemeral “secret key” values which are deliberately designed to avoid being persisted.

To perform an ephemeral Diffie-Hellman exchange, do the following:

⚠️ SECURITY WARNING ⚠️

Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman exchanges are unauthenticated and without a further authentication step are trivially vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks!

These exchanges should be performed in the context of a protocol which takes further steps to authenticate the peers in a key exchange.

Implementations§

source§

impl<C> EphemeralSecret<C>where C: CurveArithmetic,

source

pub fn random(rng: &mut impl CryptoRngCore) -> Self

Generate a cryptographically random EphemeralSecret.

source

pub fn public_key(&self) -> PublicKey<C>

Get the public key associated with this ephemeral secret.

The compress flag enables point compression.

source

pub fn diffie_hellman(&self, public_key: &PublicKey<C>) -> SharedSecret<C>

Compute a Diffie-Hellman shared secret from an ephemeral secret and the public key of the other participant in the exchange.
