crypto: add crypto.sign() and crypto.verify()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
These methods are added primarily to allow signing and verifying
using Ed25519 and Ed448 keys, which do not support streaming of
input data. However, any key type can be used with these new
APIs, to allow better performance when only signing/verifying
a single chunk.

Enables the FIPS compliant crypto provider in a FIPS-enabled Node.js build.
Throws an error if FIPS mode is not available.

### crypto.sign(algorithm, data, key)
<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->
* `algorithm` {string | null | undefined}
* `data` {Buffer | TypedArray | DataView}
* `key` {Object | string | Buffer | KeyObject}
* Returns: {Buffer}

Calculates and returns the signature for `data` using the given private key and
algorithm. If `algorithm` is `null` or `undefined`, then the algorithm is
dependent upon the key type (especially Ed25519 and Ed448).

If `key` is not a [`KeyObject`][], this function behaves as if `key` had been
passed to [`crypto.createPrivateKey()`][]. If it is an object, the following
additional properties can be passed:

* `padding`: {integer} - Optional padding value for RSA, one of the following:
* `crypto.constants.RSA_PKCS1_PADDING` (default)
* `crypto.constants.RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING`

Note that `RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING` will use MGF1 with the same hash function
used to sign the message as specified in section 3.1 of [RFC 4055][].
* `saltLength`: {integer} - salt length for when padding is
`RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING`. The special value
`crypto.constants.RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_DIGEST` sets the salt length to the digest
size, `crypto.constants.RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_MAX_SIGN` (default) sets it to the
maximum permissible value.

is timing-safe. Care should be taken to ensure that the surrounding code does
not introduce timing vulnerabilities.

### crypto.verify(algorithm, data, key, signature)
<!-- YAML
added: REPLACEME
-->
* `algorithm` {string | null | undefined}
* `data` {Buffer | TypedArray | DataView}
* `key` {Object | string | Buffer | KeyObject}
* `signature` {Buffer | TypedArray | DataView}
* Returns: {boolean}

Verifies the given signature for `data` using the given key and algorithm. If
`algorithm` is `null` or `undefined`, then the algorithm is dependent upon the
key type (especially Ed25519 and Ed448).

If `key` is not a [`KeyObject`][], this function behaves as if `key` had been
passed to [`crypto.createPublicKey()`][]. If it is an object, the following
additional properties can be passed:

* `padding`: {integer} - Optional padding value for RSA, one of the following:
* `crypto.constants.RSA_PKCS1_PADDING` (default)
* `crypto.constants.RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING`

Note that `RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING` will use MGF1 with the same hash function
used to sign the message as specified in section 3.1 of [RFC 4055][].
* `saltLength`: {integer} - salt length for when padding is
`RSA_PKCS1_PSS_PADDING`. The special value
`crypto.constants.RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_DIGEST` sets the salt length to the digest
size, `crypto.constants.RSA_PSS_SALTLEN_MAX_SIGN` (default) sets it to the
maximum permissible value.

The `signature` argument is the previously calculated signature for the `data`.

Because public keys can be derived from private keys, a private key or a public
key may be passed for `key`.
