<p>EVP_PKEY-DH, EVP_PKEY-DHX, EVP_KEYMGMT-DH, EVP_KEYMGMT-DHX - EVP_PKEY DH and DHX keytype and algorithm support</p>
<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>For <b>DH</b> FFC key agreement, two classes of domain parameters can be used: "safe" domain parameters that are associated with approved named safe-prime groups, and a class of "FIPS186-type" domain parameters. FIPS186-type domain parameters should only be used for backward compatibility with existing applications that cannot be upgraded to use the approved safe-prime groups.</p>
<p>See <a href="../man7/EVP_PKEY-FFC.html">EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)</a> for more information about FFC keys.</p>
<p>The <b>DH</b> key type uses PKCS#3 format which saves <i>p</i> and <i>g</i>, but not the <i>q</i> value. The <b>DHX</b> key type uses X9.42 format which saves the value of <i>q</i> and this must be used for FIPS186-4. If key validation is required, users should be aware of the nuances associated with FIPS186-4 style parameters as discussed in <a href="#DH-key-validation">"DH key validation"</a>.</p>
<h2 id="DH-and-DHX-domain-parameters">DH and DHX domain parameters</h2>
<p>In addition to the common FCC parameters that all FFC keytypes should support (see <a href="../man7/EVP_PKEY-FFC.html">"FFC parameters" in EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)</a>) the <b>DHX</b> and <b>DH</b> keytype implementations support the following:</p>
<dl>
<dt id="group-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_GROUP_NAME-UTF8-string">"group" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_GROUP_NAME</b>) <UTF8 string></dt>
<dd>
<p>Sets or gets a string that associates a <b>DH</b> or <b>DHX</b> named safe prime group with known values for <i>p</i>, <i>q</i> and <i>g</i>.</p>
<p>The following values can be used by the OpenSSL's default and FIPS providers: "ffdhe2048", "ffdhe3072", "ffdhe4096", "ffdhe6144", "ffdhe8192", "modp_2048", "modp_3072", "modp_4096", "modp_6144", "modp_8192".</p>
<p>The following additional values can also be used by OpenSSL's default provider: "modp_1536", "dh_1024_160", "dh_2048_224", "dh_2048_256".</p>
<p>DH/DHX named groups can be easily validated since the parameters are well known. For protocols that only transfer <i>p</i> and <i>g</i> the value of <i>q</i> can also be retrieved.</p>
</dd>

<dt id="encoded-pub-key-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_ENCODED_PUBLIC_KEY-octet-string">"encoded-pub-key" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_ENCODED_PUBLIC_KEY</b>) <octet string></dt>
<dd>
<p>Used for getting and setting the encoding of the DH public key used in a key exchange message for the TLS protocol. See EVP_PKEY_set1_encoded_public_key() and EVP_PKEY_get1_encoded_public_key().</p>
</dd>

<dl>
<dt id="safeprime-generator-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_GENERATOR-integer">"safeprime-generator" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_GENERATOR</b>) <integer></dt>
<dd>
<p>Used for DH generation of safe primes using the old safe prime generator code. The default value is 2. It is recommended to use a named safe prime group instead, if domain parameter validation is required.</p>
<p>Randomly generated safe primes are not allowed by FIPS, so setting this value for the OpenSSL FIPS provider will instead choose a named safe prime group based on the size of <i>p</i>.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<h2 id="DH-and-DHX-domain-parameter-key-generation-parameters">DH and DHX domain parameter / key generation parameters</h2>
<p>In addition to the common FFC key generation parameters that all FFC key types should support (see <a href="../man7/EVP_PKEY-FFC.html">"FFC key generation parameters" in EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)</a>) the <b>DH</b> and <b>DHX</b> keytype implementation supports the following:</p>
<dl>
<dt id="type-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_TYPE-UTF8-string">"type" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_TYPE</b>) <UTF8 string></dt>
<dd>
<p>Sets the type of parameter generation. For <b>DH</b> valid values are:</p>
<dl>
<dt id="fips186_4">"fips186_4"</dt>
<dd>
</dd>
<dt id="default">"default"</dt>
<dd>
</dd>
<dt id="fips186_2">"fips186_2"</dt>
<dd>
<p>These are described in <a href="../man7/EVP_PKEY-FFC.html">"FFC key generation parameters" in EVP_PKEY-FFC(7)</a></p>
</dd>
<dt id="group">"group"</dt>
<dd>
<p>This specifies that a named safe prime name will be chosen using the "pbits" type.</p>
</dd>
<dt id="generator">"generator"</dt>
<dd>
<p>A safe prime generator. See the "safeprime-generator" type above. This is only valid for <b>DH</b> keys.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt id="pbits-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_PBITS-unsigned-integer">"pbits" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_FFC_PBITS</b>) <unsigned integer></dt>
<dd>
<p>Sets the size (in bits) of the prime 'p'.</p>
<p>For "fips186_4" this must be 2048. For "fips186_2" this must be 1024. For "group" this can be any one of 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144 or 8192.</p>
</dd>
<dt id="priv_len-OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_PRIV_LEN-integer">"priv_len" (<b>OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_PRIV_LEN</b>) <integer></dt>
<dd>
<p>An optional value to set the maximum length of the generated private key. The default value used if this is not set is the maximum value of BN_num_bits(<i>q</i>)). The minimum value that this can be set to is 2 * s. Where s is the security strength of the key which has values of 112, 128, 152, 176 and 200 for key sizes of 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144 and 8192.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<h2 id="DH-key-validation">DH key validation</h2>
<p>For <b>DHX</b> that is not a named group the FIPS186-4 standard specifies that the values used for FFC parameter generation are also required for parameter validation. This means that optional FFC domain parameter values for <i>seed</i>, <i>pcounter</i> and <i>gindex</i> or <i>hindex</i> may need to be stored for validation purposes. For <b>DHX</b> the <i>seed</i> and <i>pcounter</i> can be stored in ASN1 data (but the <i>gindex</i> or <i>hindex</i> cannot be stored). It is recommended to use a named safe prime group instead.</p>
<p>For DH keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_param_check.html">EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)</a> behaves in the following way: The OpenSSL FIPS provider tests if the parameters are either an approved safe prime group OR that the FFC parameters conform to FIPS186-4 as defined in SP800-56Ar3 <i>Assurances of Domain-Parameter Validity</i>. The OpenSSL default provider uses simpler checks that allows there to be no <i>q</i> value for backwards compatibility.</p>
<p>For DH keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick.html">EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick(3)</a> is equivalent to <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_param_check.html">EVP_PKEY_param_check(3)</a>.</p>
<p>For DH keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_public_check.html">EVP_PKEY_public_check(3)</a> conforms to SP800-56Ar3 <i>FFC Full Public-Key Validation</i>.</p>
<p>For DH keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick.html">EVP_PKEY_public_check_quick(3)</a> conforms to SP800-56Ar3 <i>FFC Partial Public-Key Validation</i> when the DH key is an approved named safe prime group, otherwise it is the same as <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_public_check.html">EVP_PKEY_public_check(3)</a>.</p>
<p>For DH Keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_private_check.html">EVP_PKEY_private_check(3)</a> tests that the private key is in the correct range according to SP800-56Ar3. The OpenSSL FIPS provider requires the value of <i>q</i> to be set (note that this is set for named safe prime groups). For backwards compatibility the OpenSSL default provider only requires <i>p</i> to be set.</p>
<p>For DH keys, <a href="../man3/EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check.html">EVP_PKEY_pairwise_check(3)</a> conforms to SP800-56Ar3 <i>Owner Assurance of Pair-wise Consistency</i>.</p>
