Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

AES

Introduction

The aes egg implements the AES / Rijndael cryptosystem.

It does not provide any higher-level operations such as encryption 'modes'; it just provides two procedures per variant of the algorithm, which take a key (as a blob of the correct length) and return a procedure that maps 16-byte blobs to 16-byte blobs - one for encryption, one for decryption.

Examples

(use aes)
(use crypto-tools) ; for the hexstring functions
(define encryptor (make-aes128-encryptor (hexstring->blob "00010203050607080A0B0C0D0F101112")))
(define decryptor (make-aes128-decryptor (hexstring->blob "00010203050607080A0B0C0D0F101112")))
(define encrypted (encryptor (hexstring->blob "506812A45F08C889B97F5980038B8359")))
(define decrypted (decryptor encrypted))

(blob->hexstring encrypted)
 => "d8f532538289ef7d06b506a4fd5be9c9"

(blob->hexstring decrypted)
 => "506812a45f08c889b97f5980038b8359"

Library functions

make-aes128-encryptor BLOBprocedure
make-aes128-decryptor BLOBprocedure
make-aes192-encryptor BLOBprocedure
make-aes192-decryptor BLOBprocedure
make-aes256-encryptor BLOBprocedure
make-aes256-decryptor BLOBprocedure

Using the supplied blob as a raw key, return a procedure that maps 16-byte blobs to 16-byte blobs, either encrypting or decrypting them with the specified key. The key is not modified in any way; if you just split your data into blocks (with padding) and encrypt each, you will merely be operating in ECB mode, which isn't very secure.

128-bit keys must be 16 bytes long, 192-bit keys 24 bytes, and 256-bit keys 32 bytes. Otherwise, an error will be signalled. Likewise, passing a blob of other than 16 bytes to a `PROCESSOR` will result in an error.

Alaric B. Snell-Pym, based on public domain code from http://www.efgh.com/software/rijndael.htm.

My modifications extend no further than pasting it together, putting static modifiers on all the functions, and adding type casts for the u32-pointer key arguments.

The author of the original code is "Philip J. Erdelsky <pje@efgh.com>", who based it on code by Vincent Rijmen vincent.rijmen@esat.kuleuven.ac.be, Antoon Bosselaers antoon.bosselaers@esat.kuleuven.ac.be, and Paulo Barreto paulo.barreto@terra.com.br
