Package box authenticates and encrypts small messages using public-key cryptography.
|
|
|
|
Box uses Curve25519, XSalsa20 and Poly1305 to encrypt and authenticate
|
|
messages. The length of messages is not hidden.
|
|
|
|
It is the caller's responsibility to ensure the uniqueness of nonces—for
|
|
example, by using nonce 1 for the first message, nonce 2 for the second
|
|
message, etc. Nonces are long enough that randomly generated nonces have
|
|
negligible risk of collision.
|
|
|
|
Messages should be small because:
|
|
|
|
1. The whole message needs to be held in memory to be processed.
|
|
|
|
2. Using large messages pressures implementations on small machines to decrypt
|
|
and process plaintext before authenticating it. This is very dangerous, and
|
|
this API does not allow it, but a protocol that uses excessive message sizes
|
|
might present some implementations with no other choice.
|
|
|
|
3. Fixed overheads will be sufficiently amortised by messages as small as 8KB.
|
|
|
|
4. Performance may be improved by working with messages that fit into data caches.
|
|
|
|
Thus large amounts of data should be chunked so that each message is small.
|
|
(Each message still needs a unique nonce.) If in doubt, 16KB is a reasonable
|
|
chunk size.
