libcrypt-hcesha-perl

Perl extension for one way hash chaining encryption using SHA

Description

This module implements a chaining block cipher using a one way hash. This method of encryption is the same that is used by radius (RFC2138) and is also described in Applied Cryptography.

Two interfaces are provided in the module. The first is straight block encryption/decryption the second does base64 mime encoding/decoding of the encrypted/decrypted blocks.

The idea is that the two sides have a shared secret that supplies one of the keys and a randomly generated block of bytes provides the second key. The random key is passed in cleartext between the two sides.

An example client and server are packaged as modules with this module. They are used in the tests. They can be found in the examples directory.
