Instead of signalling that grammar checking should be delayed for
not-yet-authenticated streams on the grammar validator, signal that
the stream is not yet authenticated on the stream object.
It enforces a message structure as defined in
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9580.html#section-10.3
(but slightly more permissive with Padding packets allowed in all cases).
Since we are unclear on whether this change might
impact handling of some messages in the wild, generated by
odd use-cases or non-conformant implementations, we
also add the option to disable the grammar check via
`config.enforceGrammar`.
GrammarErrors are only sensitive in the context of
unauthenticated decrypted streams.
Breaking change: the `config.deflateLevel` is removed as the API does not accept a deflate level
in input, and the setting is of limited importance. Plus, using compression
is discouraged on security grounds.
Breaking change: all functions taking streams as inputs will now require passing Web Streams in Node.js . If given a native `stream.Readable` input, they will throw. The browser build is unaffected by this change.
Utils to convert from and to Web Streams in Node are available from v17,
see https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#streamreadabletowebstreamreadable-options .
Previously, we automatically converted between Node native streams and custom, Web-like Readable streams.
This led to occasional issues.
In several packet classes, we used to store string identifiers for public-key,
aead, cipher or hash algorithms. To make the code consistent and to avoid
having to convert to/from string values, we now always store integer values
instead, e.g. `enums.symmetric.aes128` is used instead of `'aes128'`.
This is not expected to be a breaking change for most library users. Note that
the type of `Key.getAlgorithmInfo()` and of the session key objects returned
and accepted by top-level functions remain unchanged.
Affected classes (type changes for some properties and method's arguments):
- `PublicKeyPacket`, `PublicSubkeyPacket`, `SecretKeyPacket`,
`SecretSubkeyPacket`
- `SymEncryptedIntegrityProtectedDataPacket`, `AEADEncryptedDataPacket`,
`SymmetricallyEncryptedDataPacket`
- `LiteralDataPacket`, `CompressedDataPacket`
- `PublicKeyEncryptedSessionKey`, `SymEncryptedSessionKeyPacket`
- `SignaturePacket`
Other potentially breaking changes:
- Removed property `AEADEncryptedDataPacket.aeadAlgo`, since it was redudant
given `.aeadAlgorithm`.
- Renamed `AEADEncryptedDataPacket.cipherAlgo` -> `.cipherAlgorithm`
- Add `PacketList.fromBinary` which parses binary data and returns a
`PacketList`. Using it instead of `PacketList.read` avoids being left
with partially read data in case of errors.
- Rename `toPacketlist` to `toPacketList` in `Key`, `Subkey` and `User`
classes
- In `readMessage`, pass down `config` to `PacketList.read`
- Add `config` param to `CompressedDataPacket.decompress`,
`AEADEncryptedDataPacket.decrypt` and `Message.appendSignature`
Changes:
- Implementation:
- Remove `PacketList.prototype.concat` and `push`
(we solely rely on `Array.push` instead)
- Fix https://github.com/openpgpjs/openpgpjs/issues/907 by
correctly handling result of `filterByTag`
- Implement `write()` method for `Trust` and `Marker` packets,
to make them compatible with the `BasePacket` interface
- Types:
- Simplify and updated `PacketList` type definitions
- Fix types for `Packet.tag`, which is `static` since
https://github.com/openpgpjs/openpgpjs/pull/1268
- Prevent passing SubkeyPackets where KeyPackets are expected,
and vice versa
- 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`.
- Rename `config.compression` to `config.preferredCompressionAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.encryptionCipher` to `config.preferredSymmetricAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.preferHashAlgorithm` to `config.preferredHashAlgorithm`
- Rename `config.aeadMode` to `config.preferredAeadAlgorithm`
- When encrypting to public keys, the compression/aead/symmetric algorithm is selected by:
- taking the preferred algorithm specified in config, if it is supported by all recipients
- otherwise, taking the "MUST implement" algorithm specified by rfc4880bis
- When encrypting to passphrases only (no public keys), the preferred algorithms from `config` are always used
- EdDSA signing with a hash algorithm weaker than sha256 is explicitly disallowed (https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-openpgp-rfc4880bis-10.html#section-15-7.2)
Refactor functions to take the configuration as a parameter.
This allows setting a config option for a single function call, whereas
setting `openpgp.config` could lead to concurrency-related issues when
multiple async function calls are made at the same time.
`openpgp.config` is used as default for unset config values in top-level
functions.
`openpgp.config` is used as default config object in low-level functions
(i.e., when calling a low-level function, it may be required to pass
`{ ...openpgp.config, modifiedConfig: modifiedValue }`).
Also,
- remove `config.rsaBlinding`: blinding is now always applied to RSA decryption
- remove `config.debug`: debugging mode can be enabled by setting
`process.env.NODE_ENV = 'development'`
- remove `config.useNative`: native crypto is always used when available
