Class DHSessionKeyBuilder


  • public class DHSessionKeyBuilder
    extends Object
    Generate a new session key through a diffie hellman exchange. This uses the constants defined in CryptoConstants, which causes the exchange to create a 256 bit session key. This class precalcs a set of values on its own thread. Whenever the pool has less than the minimum, it fills it up again to the max. There is a delay after each precalculation so that the CPU isn't hosed during startup. These three parameters are controlled by java environmental variables and can be adjusted via: -Dcrypto.dh.precalc.min=40 -Dcrypto.dh.precalc.max=100 -Dcrypto.dh.precalc.delay=60000 (delay is milliseconds) To disable precalculation, set min to 0

    • Constructor Detail

      • DHSessionKeyBuilder

        DHSessionKeyBuilder()
        Create a new public/private value pair for the DH exchange. Only for internal use and unit tests. Others should get instances from PrecalcRunner.getBuilder()
      • DHSessionKeyBuilder

        DHSessionKeyBuilder​(I2PAppContext ctx)
        Create a new public/private value pair for the DH exchange. Only for internal use and unit tests. Others should get instances from PrecalcRunner.getBuilder()
    • Method Detail

      • getMyPublicValue

        public BigInteger getMyPublicValue()
        Retrieve the public value used by the local participant in the DH exchange,
      • getMyPublicValueBytes

        public byte[] getMyPublicValueBytes()
        Return a 256 byte representation of our public key, with leading 0s if necessary.
      • getPeerPublicValue

        public BigInteger getPeerPublicValue()
      • getPeerPublicValueBytes

        public byte[] getPeerPublicValueBytes()
        Return a 256 byte representation of his public key, with leading 0s if necessary.
      • getSessionKey

        public SessionKey getSessionKey()
        Retrieve the session key, calculating it if necessary (and if possible).
        Returns:
        session key exchanged, or null if the exchange is not complete
      • getExtraBytes

        public ByteArray getExtraBytes()
        Retrieve the extra bytes beyond the session key resulting from the DH exchange. If there aren't enough bytes (with all of them being consumed by the 32 byte key), the SHA256 of the key itself is used - but that won't ever happen. Used only by UDP. getData() will be non-null and have at least 32 bytes after call to getSessionKey()
        Returns:
        non-null (but rv.getData() may be null)
