Detailed Description

GIFT-COFB authenticated encryption algorithm.

GIFT-COFB is an authenticated encryption algorithm that combines the COFB (COmbined FeedBack) block cipher mode with the GIFT-128 block cipher. The algorithm has a 128-bit key, a 128-bit nonce, and a 128-bit authentication tag.

Function Documentation

int gift_cofb_aead_decrypt	(	unsigned char *	m,
		size_t *	mlen,
		const unsigned char *	c,
		size_t	clen,
		const unsigned char *	ad,
		size_t	adlen,
		const unsigned char *	npub,
		const unsigned char *	k
	)

Decrypts and authenticates a packet with GIFT-COFB-0.

Parameters

m	Buffer to receive the plaintext message on output.
mlen	Receives the length of the plaintext message on output.
c	Buffer that contains the ciphertext and authentication tag to decrypt.
clen	Length of the input data in bytes, which includes the ciphertext and the 16 byte authentication tag.
ad	Buffer that contains associated data to authenticate along with the packet but which does not need to be encrypted.
adlen	Length of the associated data in bytes.
npub	Points to the public nonce for the packet which must be 16 bytes in length.
k	Points to the 16 bytes of the key to use to decrypt the packet.

Returns

0 on success, -1 if the authentication tag was incorrect, or some other negative number if there was an error in the parameters.
