The patch contains the following changes:
- Private RSA keys can be imported/exported in encrypted form,
protected according to PKCS#8 and:
* PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndDES-EDE3-CBC.
* PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndAES128-CBC
* PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndAES192-CBC
* PBKDF2WithHMAC-SHA1AndAES256-CBC
In addition to that, it is possible to import keys i the
following weak formats:
* pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC
* pbeWithSHA1AndRC2-CBC
* pbeWithMD5AndRC2-CBC
* pbeWithSHA1AndDES-CBC
- The following new module (and 1 new package) are added:
* Crypto.Util.Padding for simple padding/unpadding logic
* Crypto.IO._PBES for PBE-related PKCS#5 logic
* Crypto.IO.PEM for PEM wrapping/unwrapping
* Crypto.IO.PKCS8 for PKCS#8 wrapping/unwrapping
- All Object ID (OIDs) are now in dotted form to increase
readability.
- Add AES support to PEM format (decode only).
The PEM module can decrypt messages protected with AES-CBC.
- Update RSA import test cases.
- Updated to PKCS8 test cases
(as submitted here https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/544792)
so that they are available also in Python 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4.
Regardless where the implementation comes from (Python standard
library or our native modules, depending on the Python version),
all Crypto.Hash objects are always used as front-ends.
