Applications should 37instead use L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex(3)>, L<EVP_EncryptUpdate(3)> and 38L<EVP_EncryptFinal_ex(3)> or the equivalently named decrypt functions. 39 40This library implements the Blowfish cipher, which was invented and described 41by Counterpane (see http://www.counterpane.com/blowfish.html ). 42 43Blowfish is a block cipher that operates on 64 bit (8 byte) blocks of data. 44It uses a variable size key, but typically, 128 bit (16 byte) keys are 45considered good for strong encryption. Blowfish can be used in the same 46modes as DES (see L<des_modes(7)>). Blowfish is currently one 47of the faster block ciphers. It is quite a bit faster than DES, and much 48faster than IDEA or RC2. 49 50Blowfish consists of a key setup phase and the actual encryption or decryption 51phase. 52 53BF_set_key() sets up the B<BF_KEY> B<key> using the B<len> bytes long key 54at B<data>. 55 56BF_ecb_encrypt() is the basic Blowfish encryption and decryption function. 57It encrypts or decrypts the first 64 bits of B<in> using the key B<key>, 58putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (B<BF_ENCRYPT>) 59or decryption (B<BF_DECRYPT>) shall be performed. The vector pointed at by 60B<in> and B<out> must be 64 bits in length, no less. If they are larger, 61everything after the first 64 bits is ignored. 62 63The mode functions BF_cbc_encrypt(), BF_cfb64_encrypt() and BF_ofb64_encrypt() 64all operate on variable length data. They all take an initialization vector 65B<ivec> which needs to be passed along into the next call of the same function 66for the same message. B<ivec> may be initialized with anything, but the 67recipient needs to know what it was initialized with, or it won't be able 68to decrypt. Some programs and protocols simplify this, like SSH, where 69B<ivec> is simply initialized to zero. 70BF_cbc_encrypt() operates on data that is a multiple of 8 bytes long, while 71BF_cfb64_encrypt() and BF_ofb64_encrypt() are used to encrypt a variable 72number of bytes (the amount does not have to be an exact multiple of 8). The 73purpose of the latter two is to simulate stream ciphers, and therefore, they 74need the parameter B<num>, which is a pointer to an integer where the current 75offset in B<ivec> is stored between calls. This integer must be initialized 76to zero when B<ivec> is initialized. 77 78BF_cbc_encrypt() is the Cipher Block Chaining function for Blowfish. It 79encrypts or decrypts the 64 bits chunks of B<in> using the key B<schedule>, 80putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (BF_ENCRYPT) or 81decryption (BF_DECRYPT) shall be performed. B<ivec> must point at an 8 byte 82long initialization vector. 83 84BF_cfb64_encrypt() is the CFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback. 85It encrypts or decrypts the bytes in B<in> using the key B<schedule>, 86putting the result in B<out>. B<enc> decides if encryption (B<BF_ENCRYPT>) 87or decryption (B<BF_DECRYPT>) shall be performed. B<ivec> must point at an 888 byte long initialization vector. B<num> must point at an integer which must 89be initially zero. 90 91BF_ofb64_encrypt() is the OFB mode for Blowfish with 64 bit feedback. 92It uses the same parameters as BF_cfb64_encrypt(), which must be initialized 93the same way. 94 95BF_encrypt() and BF_decrypt() are the lowest level functions for Blowfish 96encryption. They encrypt/decrypt the first 64 bits of the vector pointed by 97B<data>, using the key B<key>. These functions should not be used unless you 98implement 'modes' of Blowfish. The alternative is to use BF_ecb_encrypt(). 99If you still want to use these functions, you should be aware that they take 100each 32-bit chunk in host-byte order, which is little-endian on little-endian 101platforms and big-endian on big-endian ones. 102 103=head1 RETURN VALUES 104 105None of the functions presented here return any value. 106 107=head1 NOTE 108 109Applications should use the higher level functions 110L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)> etc. instead of calling these 111functions directly. 112 113=head1 SEE ALSO 114 115L<EVP_EncryptInit(3)>, 116L<des_modes(7)> 117 118=head1 HISTORY 119 120All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0. 121 122=head1 COPYRIGHT 123 124Copyright 2000-2021 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
