This is a development done by Christophe Oosterlynck under my supervision during his thesis work & internship at NXP.
  +
  +
The code is available [http://repo.or.cz/w/python-cryptoplus.git on repo.or.cz] and [https://github.com/doegox/python-cryptoplus on github], which may be easier if you wan to submit pull requests.

==Differences with pycrypto==
  
 
*ciphers from pycrypto are being used with the python chaining modes and not the original pycrypto ones<br>=> plaintext can be supplied in arbitrary sizes instead of multiples of the blocksize like in pycrypto: the new chaining modes keep a cache to encrypt/decrypt data once the cachesize holds at least a blocksize of data

* new possibilities:
 
** Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish
  
** Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish
  +
*** Rijndael is limited to blocksizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits
−
** CMAC, XTS, CTR mod
  
  +
** CMAC, XTS, CTR
  +
*** XTS is usable for ciphers with blocksizes of 16 bytes => XTS-AES, Serpent, Twofish
  +
*** XTS encrypts the given input at once while all other chain modes encrypt only when a block plaintext is available in the cache
  +
*** CMAC is usable for blocksizes of 8 and 16 bytes
  +
** OFB,CFB and CTR can be accessed as a stream cipher (you get the encrypted message immediately, you don't have to wait until a complete block of plaintext has been provided to the cipher)
  +
** new Hash functions: extended SHA family, Whirpool, RadioGatùn, PBKDF2
  +
* test functions are available via doctests and extensive tests that loop through dictionary of test vectors
  +
** new pycrypto version will have it's own test bench for ciphers, this is not implemented yet

==TODO==
  
==TODO==
−
*add chaining modes: <del>CMAC</del>, CTR mod?
  
−
*further importing of pycrypto
  
−
*make test vectors available as variables
  
−
*add tests:
  
−
**CBC for serpent, twofish, blowfish
  
−
**XTS <del>is only tested by comparing deciphered ciphertext, not by checking ciphertext</del>: XTS-AES doctest done
  
 
*check other implementation of Blowfish
  
*check other implementation of Blowfish
  +
* use unittest for test functions
−
*final() method of chains
  
  +
* check development of pycrypto:
−
**add a cipher.final() method? pycrypto doesn't have it, but it doesn't really conflict with the pycrypto API. It will just extend it
  
  +
** Util.Counter & Util._counter
−
**final() method should use padding. Choose padding function at initialization of the cipher => again: extending the API
  
  +
** SelfTest: usable to perform the test for python algo's in CryptoPlus if testvectors are in right format?
−
* XTS
 
−
** XTS-AES? XTS-AES just denotes XTS using AES cipher? Make only that one available (which is the case for the moment)?
 
−
** supply XTS keys by splitting 1 big key or by supplying two keys?
  
−
* <del>add rijndael instead of only AES</del>
  
−
* add docstring to every "new" function of every module, explaining what should be passed as arguments (probably the same for every function)<br>Move doctests there so they are easily viewable

This is a development done by Christophe Oosterlynck under my supervision during his thesis work & internship at NXP.

The code is available on repo.or.cz and on github, which may be easier if you wan to submit pull requests.

  • ciphers from pycrypto are being used with the python chaining modes and not the original pycrypto ones
    => plaintext can be supplied in arbitrary sizes instead of multiples of the blocksize like in pycrypto: the new chaining modes keep a cache to encrypt/decrypt data once the cachesize holds at least a blocksize of data
  • new possibilities:
    • Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish
      • Rijndael is limited to blocksizes of 128, 192 and 256 bits
    • CMAC, XTS, CTR
      • XTS is usable for ciphers with blocksizes of 16 bytes => XTS-AES, Serpent, Twofish
      • XTS encrypts the given input at once while all other chain modes encrypt only when a block plaintext is available in the cache
      • CMAC is usable for blocksizes of 8 and 16 bytes
    • OFB,CFB and CTR can be accessed as a stream cipher (you get the encrypted message immediately, you don't have to wait until a complete block of plaintext has been provided to the cipher)
    • new Hash functions: extended SHA family, Whirpool, RadioGatùn, PBKDF2
  • test functions are available via doctests and extensive tests that loop through dictionary of test vectors
    • new pycrypto version will have it's own test bench for ciphers, this is not implemented yet

source structure

root of CryptoPlus package
src/Protocol.py make all Crypto.Protocol modules available under CryptoPlus.Protocol
src/PublicKey.py make all Crypto.PublicKey modules available under CryptoPlus.PublicKey
src/__init__.py make the following modules available under the CryptoPlus package:
  • always: "Cipher","PublicKey","Util","Protocol","Hash","testvectors"
  • if pycrypto > 2.0.1: "SelfTest", "Random"
src/testvectors.py
  • contains dictionaries with testvectors for: CBC, CFB, OFB and CTR with AES, DES,TDES2/3, Serpent128/192/256, CMAC-AES128/192/256, CMAC-TDES2/3, XTS-AES
  • used by test/test.py
CryptoPlus.Cipher subpackage
src/Cipher/__init__.py specify all the ciphers in the CryptoPlus.Cipher package + import of the streamcipher ARC4 and XOR
src/Cipher/blockcipher.py
  • class BlockCipher: parent class for every cipher you constructs. Holds some variabeles (key, blocksize) and objects (blockcipher, chain mode).
  • classes for every chain mode: the BlockCipher uses one of these as the chaining mode object. They are all own python code but sometimes based on non-complete code that was available.
Wrappers for pycrypto
src/Cipher/AES.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.AES
  • doctests for: ECB, CBC, CFB, OFB, CTR, XTS, CMAC
src/Cipher/ARC2.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.ARC2
  • doctests for: 1 ECB example
src/Cipher/Blowfish.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.Blowfish
  • doctests for: ECB, CBC, CFB, OFB
src/Cipher/CAST.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.CAST
  • doctests for: 2 ECB examples (128 bit and 40 bit key size)
src/Cipher/DES.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.DES
  • doctests for: ECB
src/Cipher/DES3.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.DES3
  • doctests for: CBC, CMAC TDES-EDE3, CMAC TDES-EDE2
src/Cipher/IDEA.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.IDEA
  • doctests for: 1 ECB example
src/Cipher/RC5.py
  • wraps Crypto.Cipher.RC5
  • doctests for: 1 ECB example
Wrappers for pure python implementations
src/Cipher/python_AES.py
  • wraps rijndael.py (only for the AES blocksize of 128bits)
  • doctests same as in the pycrypto wrapper
src/Cipher/python_Blowfish.py
  • wraps pyblowfish.py
  • doctests same as in the pycrypto wrapper
src/Cipher/python_DES.py

  • wraps pyDes.py (only using "triple_des" class)
  • doctests same as in the pycrypto wrapper
src/Cipher/python_Rijndael.py
  • wraps pyrijndael.py
  • doctests for ECB, CBC, XTS (CBC and XTS are AES test vectors)

Pure python implementations for blockciphers
src/Cipher/pyDes.py
src/Cipher/pyblowfish.py
src/Cipher/pyserpent.py
  • originally found here: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~fms27/serpent/
  • added class to wrap all the functions needed in one class so that the serpent cipher can be accessed like all other pure python ciphers
src/Cipher/pytwofish.py
src/Cipher/rijndael.py
src/Cipher/pypresent.py
CryptoPlus.Hash subpackage
src/Hash/__init__.py specify all the ciphers in the CryptoPlus.Hash package (new implementations and imports from pycrypto
src/Hash/python_*.py
  • wrappers for the pure python (py*.py) implementations of hash functions
  • provide "new()" function and some doctests
src/Hash/py*.py
  • pure python implementations of hash functions
  • pyradiogatun.py is own code, the rest is gathered from other sources
CryptoPlus.Random subpackage (only used if pycrypto version > 2.0.1)
src/Util/__init__.py
  • import modules from original Crypto.Random: _UserFriendlyRNG, atfork, random
src/Util/Fortuna.py
  • imports Crypto.Random.Fortuna.*

  • wrappers for the respective Crypto.Util modules
src/Util/python_compat.py
  • wrapper for Crypto.Util.python_compat if pycrypto > 2.0.1
src/Util/padding.py
  • own code for (un)padding raw strings
  • doctest for every padding function
src/Util/util.py
  • provides: number2string, roundUp, string2number, xorstring
Test scripts
test/test.py runs extensive test with verified test vectors for: CBC, CFB, OFB and CTR with AES, DES,TDES2/3, Serpent128/192/256, CMAC-AES128/192/256, CMAC-TDES2/3, XTS-AES, PRESENT (80 and 128 bit key), Twofish (128/192/256bits keys)
test/test_doctests.py script to run all doctest available in every cipher wrapper (pure python and pycrypto wrapper)

TODO

  • check other implementation of Blowfish
  • use unittest for test functions
  • check development of pycrypto:
    • Util.Counter & Util._counter
    • SelfTest: usable to perform the test for python algo's in CryptoPlus if testvectors are in right format?
