The OFB mode is defined as follows:</p> * * <ul> * <li>OFB Encryption: * <ul> * <li>I<sub>1</sub> = IV;</li> * <li>I<sub>j</sub> = O<sub>j -1</sub> for j = 2...n;</li> * <li>O<sub>j</sub> = CIPH<sub>K</sub>(I<sub>j</sub>) for j = 1, 2...n;</li> * <li>C<sub>j</sub> = P<sub>j</sub> XOR O<sub>j</sub> for j = 1, 2...n.</li> * </ul></li> * <li>OFB Decryption: * <ul> * <li>I<sub>1</sub> = IV;</li> * <li>I<sub>j</sub> = O<sub>j -1</sub> for j = 2...n;</li> * <li>O<sub>j</sub> = CIPH<sub>K</sub>(I<sub>j</sub>) for j = 1, 2...n;</li> * <li>P<sub>j</sub> = C<sub>j</sub> XOR O<sub>j</sub> for j = 1, 2...n.</li> * </ul></li> * </ul> * * <p>In OFB encryption, the <code>IV</code> is transformed by the forward * cipher function to produce the first output block. The first output block is * exclusive-ORed with the first plaintext block to produce the first ciphertext * block. The first output block is then transformed by the forward cipher * function to produce the second output block. The second output block is * exclusive-ORed with the second plaintext block to produce the second * ciphertext block, and the second output block is transformed by the forward * cipher function to produce the third output block. Thus, the successive * output blocks are produced from enciphering the previous output blocks, and * the output blocks are exclusive-ORed with the corresponding plaintext blocks * to produce the ciphertext blocks.</p> * * <p>In OFB decryption, the <code>IV</code> is transformed by the forward cipher * function to produce the first output block. The first output block is * exclusive-ORed with the first ciphertext block to recover the first plaintext * block. The first output block is then transformed by the forward cipher * function to produce the second output block. The second output block is * exclusive-ORed with the second ciphertext block to produce the second * plaintext block, and the second output block is also transformed by the * forward cipher function to produce the third output block. Thus, the * successive output blocks are produced from enciphering the previous output * blocks, and the output blocks are exclusive-ORed with the corresponding * ciphertext blocks to recover the plaintext blocks.</p> * * <p>In both OFB encryption and OFB decryption, each forward cipher function * (except the first) depends on the results of the previous forward cipher * function; therefore, multiple forward cipher functions cannot be performed * in parallel. However, if the <code>IV</code> is known, the output blocks can * be generated prior to the availability of the plaintext or ciphertext data.</p> * * <p>The OFB mode requires a unique <code>IV</code> for every message that is * ever encrypted under the given key. If, contrary to this requirement, the * same <code>IV</code> is used for the encryption of more than one message, * then the confidentiality of those messages may be compromised. In particular, * if a plaintext block of any of these messages is known, say, the j<sup>th</sup> * plaintext block, then the j<sup>th</sup> output of the forward cipher * function can be determined easily from the j<sup>th</sup> ciphertext block of * the message. This information allows the j<sup>th</sup> plaintext block of * any other message that is encrypted using the same <code>IV</code> to be * easily recovered from the jth ciphertext block of that message.</p> * * <p>Confidentiality may similarly be compromised if any of the input blocks to * the forward cipher function for the encryption of a message is used as the * <code>IV</code> for the encryption of another message under the given key.</p> * * <p>References:</p> * * <ol> * <li><a href="http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/modes/Recommendation/Modes01.pdf"> * Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation Methods and Techniques</a>, * Morris Dworkin.</li> * </ol> * * @version $Revision: 1.3 $ */ public class OFB extends BaseMode implements Cloneable { // Constants and variables // ------------------------------------------------------------------------- private byte[] outputBlock; // Constructor(s) // ------------------------------------------------------------------------- /** * <p>Trivial package-private constructor for use by the Factory class.</p> * * @param underlyingCipher the underlying cipher implementation. * @param cipherBlockSize the underlying cipher block size to use. */ OFB(IBlockCipher underlyingCipher, int cipherBlockSize) { super(Registry.OFB_MODE, underlyingCipher, cipherBlockSize); } /** * <p>Private constructor for cloning purposes.</p> * * @param that the mode to clone. */ private OFB(OFB that) { this((IBlockCipher) that.cipher.clone(), that.cipherBlockSize); } // Class methods // ------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Instance methods // ------------------------------------------------------------------------- // java.lang.Cloneable interface implementation ---------------------------- public Object clone() { return new OFB(this); } // Implementation of abstract methods in BaseMode -------------------------- public void setup() { if (modeBlockSize != cipherBlockSize) { throw new IllegalArgumentException(IMode.MODE_BLOCK_SIZE); } outputBlock = (byte[]) iv.clone(); } public void teardown() { } public void encryptBlock(byte[] in, int i, byte[] out, int o) { cipher.encryptBlock(outputBlock, 0, outputBlock, 0); for (int j = 0; j < cipherBlockSize; ) { out[o++] = (byte)(in[i++] ^ outputBlock[j++]); } } public void decryptBlock(byte[] in, int i, byte[] out, int o) { this.encryptBlock(in, i, out, o); } }
