* Remove Transform base classJack Lloyd2016-04-211-27/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With sufficient squinting, Transform provided an abstract base interface that covered both cipher modes and compression algorithms. However it mapped on neither of them particularly well. In addition this API had the same problem that has made me dislike the Pipe/Filter API: given a Transform&, what does it do when you put bits in? Maybe it encrypts. Maybe it compresses. It's a floor wax and a dessert topping! Currently the Cipher_Mode interface is left mostly unchanged, with the APIs previously on Transform just moved down the type hierarchy. I think there are some definite improvements possible here, wrt handling of in-place encryption, but left for a later commit. The compression API is split into two types, Compression_Algorithm and Decompression_Algorithm. Compression_Algorithm's start() call takes the compression level, allowing varying compressions with a single object. And flushing the compression state is moved to a bool param on `Compression_Algorithm::update`. All the nonsense WRT compression algorithms having zero length nonces, input granularity rules, etc as a result of using the Transform interface goes away.
* Fix formatting bugs in TLS docJack Lloyd2016-04-131-11/+6
| | | | | | | Fixes GH #460 Closes GH #474 [ci skip]
* Remove support for TLS v1.2 MD5 and SHA-224 signatures.Jack Lloyd2016-03-171-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | Remove support for weak ECC curves (anything under P-256) from TLS. This includes secp256k1 since we don't take advantage of the special form for any performance advantage; might as well use P-256. The manual still mentioned that it was possible to use MD5 in Policy::allowed_macs, but all HMAC-MD5 suites are already removed.

| | | | | | | | | | | Fix a bug which rejected any short server key exchanges. These can occur with a plain PSK with short or empty identity hints. Disable SHA-224 by default. Remove some vestigal RC4 cruft. Push more on the TLS corruption tests.

| * TLS improvementsJack Lloyd2015-10-251-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use constant time operations when checking CBC padding in TLS decryption Fix a bug in decoding ClientHellos that prevented DTLS rehandshakes from working: on decode the session id and hello cookie would be swapped, causing confusion between client and server. Various changes in the service of finding the above DTLS bug that should have been done before now anyway - better control of handshake timeouts (via TLS::Policy), better reporting of handshake state in the case of an error, and finally expose the facility for per-message application callbacks.

Remove McEliece_Public_Operation and McEliece_Private_Operation which were difficult to use safely. Instead only the KEM operations are exposed. Add McEliece_PublicKey::random_plaintext_element Add command line `mce` tool and some McEliece documentation Convert the speed program to check McEliece keys of the suggested size Add McEliece KATs for both key generation and KEM Fix HMAC_DRBG constructor which derefed a pointer before its time

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Merge the website index, download page, algo page into the readme file so all the important information is in one place. The readme.rst is now also used as the website landing page. Remove the website target on the makefile, replaced by website.sh, since I'm the only one who ever needs to run this. Fix various ReST formatting bugs in news.rst and the manual Remove the old build_log which hasn't been touched in years and refers entirely to compilers which we don't support anymore.

Rewrite the max fragment length extension code to roughly what an ideal compiler would have turned the original code into, using a switch instead of a lookup into a small constant std::map.
