cryptostore v0.2.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-10-13 // over 4 years ago
    • โž• Added CMS fuctions contentInfoToDER and berToContentInfo in order to generate and parse raw ASN.1.

    • Implementation of AES key wrap had some optimizations.

    • SHAKE hash algorithms now allow arbitrary output lengths. Lengths that are very small decrease security. A protection is added so that attempts to use lengths which are too small fail, although the criteria are conservative. Generating and parsing content has no restriction.


Previous changes from v0.2.0.0

    • โž• Added functions toNamedCredential and fromNamedCredential to handle PKCS#12 elements with an alias (friendly name).

    • Functions fromCredential and fromNamedCredential now generate PKCS#12 elements with the localKeyId attribute.

    • Function toCredential is now able to locate the leaf certificate and issuers more reliably.

    • ๐Ÿ‘ Algorithms X25519, X448, Ed25519 and Ed448 are now supported.

    • CMS functions digestVerify and verifySignedData now return an Either instead of a Maybe. Errors DigestMismatch and SignatureNotVerified are added to report failures.

    • CMS types SignedData, DigestedData and AuthenticatedData now retain the encapsulated content in encoded form (with type alias EncapsulatedContent) instead of a decoded and parsed ContentInfo. The ContentInfo is parsed and provided only when successfully unwrapping the encapsulated type.

    • ๐Ÿ‘ The CMS interface is transformed to support detached content. CMS types now have a type parameter to distinguish between a direct reference to the encapsulated or encrypted content, and the Encap indirection which denotes an attached or detached content. Functions building CMS types do not return the ContentInfo directly anymore, but an intermediate type to be fed into toAttachedCI or toDetachedCI. Reverse transformation is possible with utility functions fromAttached and fromDetached when unwrapping a ContentInfo.
