Parsing of v5 keys, v5 signatures and AEAD-encrypted data packets now requires turning on
the corresponding config flag.
The affected entities are non-standard, and in the crypto-refresh RFC they have been superseded by
v6 keys, v6 signatures and SEIPDv2 encrypted data, respectively.
However, generation of v5 entities was supported behind config flag in OpenPGP.js v5, and some other libraries,
hence parsing them might be necessary in some cases.
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.
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`
Don't ignore parse errors if `config.tolerant` is enabled. This leads to
more useful error messages in most cases, as ignoring these errors will
most likely still lead to an error down the line (e.g. if a key binding
signature is missing). Unsupported and unknown packets and packets with
an unsupported or unknown version are still ignored, for forward
compatibility.
Also, make `PKESK.encrypt`/`decrypt` void.
- 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`.
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
- Remove the boolean return value of various internal functions that throw on
error (the returned value was unused in most cases)
- Update and fix type definitions
