NAME
SRP_create_verifier_ex, SRP_create_verifier, SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex, SRP_create_verifier_BN,
SRP_check_known_gN_param, SRP_get_default_gN - SRP authentication primitives
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/srp.h>
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be hidden entirely by defining
OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):
int SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex(const char *user, const char *pass, BIGNUM **salt,
BIGNUM **verifier, const BIGNUM *N,
const BIGNUM *g, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx,
const char *propq);
char *SRP_create_verifier_BN(const char *user, const char *pass, BIGNUM **salt,
BIGNUM **verifier, const BIGNUM *N, const BIGNUM *g);
char *SRP_create_verifier_ex(const char *user, const char *pass, char **salt,
char **verifier, const char *N, const char *g,
OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq);
char *SRP_create_verifier(const char *user, const char *pass, char **salt,
char **verifier, const char *N, const char *g);
char *SRP_check_known_gN_param(const BIGNUM *g, const BIGNUM *N);
SRP_gN *SRP_get_default_gN(const char *id);
DESCRIPTION
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated. There are no available replacement functions at this
time.
The SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() function creates an SRP password verifier from the supplied parameters as defined
in section 2.4 of RFC 5054 using the library context libctx and property query string propq. Any cryptographic
algorithms that need to be fetched will use the libctx and propq. See "ALGORITHM FETCHING" in crypto(7).
SRP_create_verifier_BN() is the same as SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() except the default library context and
property query string is used.
On successful exit *verifier will point to a newly allocated BIGNUM containing the verifier and (if a salt was
not provided) *salt will be populated with a newly allocated BIGNUM containing a random salt. If *salt is not
NULL then the provided salt is used instead. The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated *salt and
*verifier BIGNUMS (use BN_free(3)).
The SRP_create_verifier() function is similar to SRP_create_verifier_BN() but all numeric parameters are in a
non-standard base64 encoding originally designed for compatibility with libsrp. This is mainly present for
historical compatibility and its use is discouraged. It is possible to pass NULL as N and an SRP group id as g
instead to load the appropriate gN values (see SRP_get_default_gN()). If both N and g are NULL the 8192-bit SRP
group parameters are used. The caller is responsible for freeing the allocated *salt and *verifier (use
OPENSSL_free(3)).
The SRP_check_known_gN_param() function checks that g and N are valid SRP group parameters from RFC 5054 appendix
A.
The SRP_get_default_gN() function returns the gN parameters for the RFC 5054 id SRP group size. The known ids
are "1024", "1536", "2048", "3072", "4096", "6144" and "8192".
RETURN VALUES
SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() and SRP_create_verifier_BN() return 1 on success and 0 on failure.
SRP_create_verifier_ex() and SRP_create_verifier() return NULL on failure and a non-NULL value on success: "*" if
N is not NULL, the selected group id otherwise. This value should not be freed.
SRP_check_known_gN_param() returns the text representation of the group id (i.e. the prime bit size) or NULL if
the arguments are not valid SRP group parameters. This value should not be freed.
SRP_get_default_gN() returns NULL if id is not a valid group size, or the 8192-bit group parameters if id is
NULL.
EXAMPLES
Generate and store a 8192 bit password verifier (error handling omitted for clarity):
#include <openssl/bn.h>
#include <openssl/srp.h>
const char *username = "username";
const char *password = "password";
SRP_VBASE *srpData = SRP_VBASE_new(NULL);
SRP_gN *gN = SRP_get_default_gN("8192");
BIGNUM *salt = NULL, *verifier = NULL;
SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex(username, password, &salt, &verifier, gN->N, gN->g,
NULL, NULL);
SRP_user_pwd *pwd = SRP_user_pwd_new();
SRP_user_pwd_set1_ids(pwd, username, NULL);
SRP_user_pwd_set0_sv(pwd, salt, verifier);
SRP_user_pwd_set_gN(pwd, gN->g, gN->N);
SRP_VBASE_add0_user(srpData, pwd);

HISTORY
SRP_create_verifier_BN_ex() and SRP_create_verifier_ex() were introduced in OpenSSL 3.0. All other functions were
added in OpenSSL 1.0.1.
