Pure Rust implementation of the NIST P-192 (a.k.a. secp192r1, prime192v1) elliptic curve.

Documentation

⚠️ Security Warning

Small Key Size!

P-192 provides equivalent strength to a 96-bit symmetric key, which is considered too weak for modern usage.

For more information, see: NIST Special Publication 800-131A Revision 2: "Transitioning the Use of Cryptographic Algorithms and Key Lengths":

ECDSA and EdDSA: The security strength provided by an elliptic-curve-based signature algorithm is no greater than 1/2 of the length of the domain parameter n. Therefore, the length of n shall be at least 224 bits to meet the minimum security-strength requirement of 112 bits for Federal Government use.

Following the recommendations from this document, this crate only provides public key operations intended for legacy interop purposes. There is deliberately no SecretKey, ECDH support, or ECDSA SigningKey.

Unaudited!

The elliptic curve arithmetic contained in this crate has never been independently audited!

This crate has been designed with the goal of ensuring that secret-dependent operations are performed in constant time (using the subtle crate and constant-time formulas). However, it has not been thoroughly assessed to ensure that generated assembly is constant time on common CPU architectures.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

About P-192

NIST P-192 is a Weierstrass curve specified in FIPS 186-4.

Also known as secp192r1 (SECG).

Minimum Supported Rust Version

Rust 1.65 or higher.

Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be done with a minor version bump.
