* Move `KeGroup` to `KeyExchange::Group` - Introduce `KeyExchange::Hash`, which separates the OPRF hash from the one used in `KeyExchange`. - Remove `De/Serialize` requirement on key exchange messages and states, which forced a lot of where bounds on downstream users. - Rename `KeGroup` to `Group`. - Replace `D` generic for hash with `H`. * Use `voprf::derive_key()` directly * Implement SIGMA-I key exchange * Improve `KeyExchange` for SIGMA-I and Ed25519 * Implement EdDSA * Un-qualify some method calls * SIGMA-I: only include client identity in client mac * SIGMA-I: include server mac in client signature * Expose key exchange types in `crate` & move modules * Implement Ed25519ph * Document `ed25519` crate feature * Remove `ristretto255-voprf` crate feature * Adjust CI crate feature testing * Fix Rustdoc * Remove unnecessary generic parameters from SIGMA-I * Properly mark to-do's with TODO * Assorted fixes * SIGMA-I: include context in signature * SIGMA-I: include identifiers in signature * Merge `ServerLoginStart/FinishParameters` * Re-export more necessary types * More carefully expose types * Add ECDSA test * SIGMA-I: share context hashing * De-duplicate client static public key storage * Hide `KeyExchange` better * Use the correct hash in the root documentation * Bump `derive-where` * Format documentation examples a bit further * Add remote OPRF seed documentation * Rename `deserialize_key_pair` to `deserialize_take_key_pair` * Add more key tests * Remove `SharedSecret` trait * SIGMA-I refactor message API * Share more implementation between 3DH and SIGMA-I * Remove unnecessary zero scalar check for Curve25519 * Use correct hash in test * Add some more TODOs * Exclude `tests` folder from Cargo publishing * Enable missing dependencies * Use right crate for testing Ed25519 * Remove unnecessary `Sized` constraints * Remove unnecessary `ecdsa` crate features * Move signature de/serialization to trait methods * Nit: move import to appropriate location * Add warning to SIGMA-I
The OPAQUE key exchange protocol 
OPAQUE is an augmented password-authenticated key exchange protocol. It allows a client to authenticate to a server using a password, without ever having to expose the plaintext password to the server.
This implementation is based on the Internet Draft for OPAQUE.
Background
Augmented Password Authenticated Key Exchange (aPAKE) protocols are designed to provide password authentication and mutually authenticated key exchange without relying on PKI (except during user/password registration) and without disclosing passwords to servers or other entities other than the client machine.
OPAQUE is a PKI-free aPAKE that is secure against pre-computation attacks and capable of using a secret salt.
Documentation
The API can be found here along with an example for usage. More examples can be found in the examples directory.
Installation
Add the following line to the dependencies of your Cargo.toml:
opaque-ke = "3"
Minimum Supported Rust Version
Rust 1.83 or higher.
Audit
This library was audited by NCC Group in June of 2021. The audit was sponsored by WhatsApp for its use in enabling end-to-end encrypted backups.
The audit found issues in release v0.5.0, and the fixes were subsequently incorporated into release v1.2.0. See the full audit report here.
