Every submodule under the 'crypto' directory was exported-imported
even if a handful of functions where actually needed.
We now only export entire modules behind default exports if it makes
sense for readability and if the different submodules would be
imported together anyway (e.g. `cipherMode` exports are all needed
by the SEIPD class).
We've also dropped exports that are not used outside of the crypto modules,
e.g. pkcs5 helpers.
The changes do not affect the public API:
`RandomBuffer` was used internally for secure randomness generation before
`crypto.getRandomValues` was made available to WebWorkers, requiring
generating randomness in the main thread.
As a result of the change, the internal `getRandomBytes()` and some functions
that use it are no longer async.
Implement optional constant-time decryption flow to hinder Bleichenbacher-like
attacks against RSA- and ElGamal public-key encrypted session keys.
Changes:
- Add `config.constantTimePKCS1Decryption` to enable the constant-time
processing (defaults to `false`). The constant-time option is off by default
since it has measurable performance impact on message decryption, and it is
only helpful in specific application scenarios (more info below).
- Add `config.constantTimePKCS1DecryptionSupportedSymmetricAlgorithms`
(defaults to the AES algorithms). The set of supported ciphers is restricted by
default since the number of algorithms negatively affects performance.
Bleichenbacher-like attacks are of concern for applications where both of the
following conditions are met:
1. new/incoming messages are automatically decrypted (without user
interaction);
2. an attacker can determine how long it takes to decrypt each message (e.g.
due to decryption errors being logged remotely).
- Use PascalCase for classes, with uppercase acronyms.
- Use camelCase for function and variables. First word/acronym is always
lowercase, otherwise acronyms are uppercase.
Also, make the packet classes' `tag` properties `static`.
In the lightweight build, lazily load bn.js only when necessary.
Also, use Uint8Arrays instead of strings in PKCS1 padding functions, and
check that the leading zero is present when decoding EME-PKCS1 padding.
There are dozens of links in the OpenPGP.js codebase that are http but
could be replaced with https links. I've converted as many of them as
i could find.
Add jsdoc @module definitions.
Fix references to old class names.
Make keyring a multiple instance module.
Eliminate unit test dependency on running npm test.
