=head1 NAME
RSA_public_encrypt, RSA_private_decrypt - RSA public key cryptography
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/rsa.h>
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
int RSA_public_encrypt(int flen, const unsigned char *from,
unsigned char *to, RSA *rsa, int padding);
int RSA_private_decrypt(int flen, const unsigned char *from,
unsigned char *to, RSA *rsa, int padding);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Both of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt_init_ex(3)>,
L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)>, L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init_ex(3)> and
L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)>.
RSA_public_encrypt() encrypts the B<flen> bytes at B<from> (usually a
session key) using the public key B<rsa> and stores the ciphertext in
B<to>. B<to> must point to RSA_size(B<rsa>) bytes of memory.
B<padding> denotes one of the following modes:
=over 4
=item RSA_PKCS1_PADDING
PKCS #1 v1.5 padding. This currently is the most widely used mode.
However, it is highly recommended to use RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING in
new applications. SEE WARNING BELOW.
=item RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING
EME-OAEP as defined in PKCS #1 v2.0 with SHA-1, MGF1 and an empty
encoding parameter. This mode is recommended for all new applications.
=item RSA_NO_PADDING
Raw RSA encryption. This mode should I<only> be used to implement
cryptographically sound padding modes in the application code.
Encrypting user data directly with RSA is insecure.
=back
B<flen> must not be more than RSA_size(B<rsa>) - 11 for the PKCS #1 v1.5
based padding modes, not more than RSA_size(B<rsa>) - 42 for
RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING and exactly RSA_size(B<rsa>) for RSA_NO_PADDING.
When a padding mode other than RSA_NO_PADDING is in use, then
RSA_public_encrypt() will include some random bytes into the ciphertext
and therefore the ciphertext will be different each time, even if the
plaintext and the public key are exactly identical.
The returned ciphertext in B<to> will always be zero padded to exactly
RSA_size(B<rsa>) bytes.
B<to> and B<from> may overlap.
RSA_private_decrypt() decrypts the B<flen> bytes at B<from> using the
private key B<rsa> and stores the plaintext in B<to>. B<flen> should
be equal to RSA_size(B<rsa>) but may be smaller, when leading zero
bytes are in the ciphertext. Those are not important and may be removed,
but RSA_public_encrypt() does not do that. B<to> must point
to a memory section large enough to hold the maximal possible decrypted
data (which is equal to RSA_size(B<rsa>) for RSA_NO_PADDING,
RSA_size(B<rsa>) - 11 for the PKCS #1 v1.5 based padding modes and
RSA_size(B<rsa>) - 42 for RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING).
B<padding> is the padding mode that was used to encrypt the data.
B<to> and B<from> may overlap.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
RSA_public_encrypt() returns the size of the encrypted data (i.e.,
RSA_size(B<rsa>)). RSA_private_decrypt() returns the size of the
recovered plaintext. A return value of 0 is not an error and
means only that the plaintext was empty.
On error, -1 is returned; the error codes can be
obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
=head1 WARNINGS
Decryption failures in the RSA_PKCS1_PADDING mode leak information
which can potentially be used to mount a Bleichenbacher padding oracle
attack. This is an inherent weakness in the PKCS #1 v1.5 padding
design. Prefer RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING.
