Function Documentation

int mbedtls_arc4_crypt ( mbedtls_arc4_context ctx,
size_t  length,
const unsigned char *  input,
unsigned char *  output 
)

ARC4 cipher function.

Parameters:
ctx ARC4 context
length length of the input data
input buffer holding the input data
output buffer for the output data
Returns:
0 if successful
Warning:
ARC4 is considered a weak cipher and its use constitutes a security risk. We recommend considering stronger ciphers instead.
void mbedtls_arc4_free ( mbedtls_arc4_context ctx  ) 

Clear ARC4 context.

Parameters:
ctx ARC4 context to be cleared
Warning:
ARC4 is considered a weak cipher and its use constitutes a security risk. We recommend considering stronger ciphers instead.
void mbedtls_arc4_init ( mbedtls_arc4_context ctx  ) 

Initialize ARC4 context.

Parameters:
ctx ARC4 context to be initialized
Warning:
ARC4 is considered a weak cipher and its use constitutes a security risk. We recommend considering stronger ciphers instead.
int mbedtls_arc4_self_test ( int  verbose  ) 

Checkup routine.

Returns:
0 if successful, or 1 if the test failed
Warning:
ARC4 is considered a weak cipher and its use constitutes a security risk. We recommend considering stronger ciphers instead.
void mbedtls_arc4_setup ( mbedtls_arc4_context ctx,
const unsigned char *  key,
unsigned int  keylen 
)

ARC4 key schedule.

Parameters:
ctx ARC4 context to be setup
key the secret key
keylen length of the key, in bytes
Warning:
ARC4 is considered a weak cipher and its use constitutes a security risk. We recommend considering stronger ciphers instead.
