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 RFC 9807.
This is a fork of facebook/opaque-ke maintained by VexaHub, targeting the latest RustCrypto ecosystem.
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-vx = "1.0.0-rc.0"
Minimum Supported Rust Version
Rust 1.90 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.
