* Add back in blinding to RSA, RW, ElGamal, and DH.lloyd2010-03-081-49/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are multiple unsatisfactory elements to the current solution, as compared to how blinding was previously done: Firstly, blinding is only used in the baseline implementations; the code using OpenSSL and GMP is not protected by blinding at all. Secondly, at the point we need to set up blinding, there is no access to a PRNG. Currently I am going with a quite nasty solution, of using a private key parameter to seed a simple PRNG constructed as: SHA-512(TS1 || private_key_param || public_key_param || TS2) I really want to fix both of these elements but I'm not sure how to do so easily.
* Thomas Moschny passed along a request from the Fedora packagers which camelloyd2009-03-301-13/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | up during the Fedora submission review, that each source file include some text about the license. One handy Perl script later and each file now has the line Distributed under the terms of the Botan license after the copyright notices. While I was in there modifying every file anyway, I also stripped out the remainder of the block comments (lots of astericks before and after the text); this is stylistic thing I picked up when I was first learning C++ but in retrospect it is not a good style as the structure makes it harder to modify comments (with the result that comments become fewer, shorter and are less likely to be updated, which are not good things).
* Rearrange BigInt directories:lloyd2008-09-301-0/+47
math/bigint - BigInt implementation math/numbertheory - Math stuff built on top of BigInt Coming soon: math/gfp (parts of pk/ecdsa) Update deps in the pk files
