Class SRP6Client

java.lang.Object

org.gudy.bouncycastle.crypto.agreement.srp.SRP6Client

public class SRP6Client
extends Object

Implements the client side SRP-6a protocol. Note that this class is stateful, and therefore NOT threadsafe. This implementation of SRP is based on the optimized message sequence put forth by Thomas Wu in the paper "SRP-6: Improvements and Refinements to the Secure Remote Password Protocol, 2002"

Method Details

init

public void init(BigInteger N,
 BigInteger g,
 Digest digest,
 SecureRandom random)

Initialises the client to begin new authentication attempt

Parameters:

N - The safe prime associated with the client's verifier

g - The group parameter associated with the client's verifier

digest - The digest algorithm associated with the client's verifier

random - For key generation

generateClientCredentials

public BigInteger generateClientCredentials(byte[] salt,
 byte[] identity,
 byte[] password)

Generates client's credentials given the client's salt, identity and password

Parameters:

salt - The salt used in the client's verifier.

identity - The user's identity (eg. username)

password - The user's password

Returns:

Client's public value to send to server

calculateSecret

public BigInteger calculateSecret(BigInteger serverB)
                           throws CryptoException

Generates client's verification message given the server's credentials

Parameters:

serverB - The server's credentials

Returns:

Client's verification message for the server

Throws:

CryptoException - If server's credentials are invalid

selectPrivateValue

protected BigInteger selectPrivateValue()

calculateS

private BigInteger calculateS()
