NAME

Crypt::Mode::OFB − Block cipher mode OFB [Output feedback]

SYNOPSIS

use Crypt::Mode::OFB;
my $m = Crypt::Mode::OFB−>new('AES');
#(en|de)crypt at once
my $ciphertext = $m−>encrypt($plaintext, $key, $iv);
my $plaintext = $m−>decrypt($ciphertext, $key, $iv);
#encrypt more chunks
$m−>start_encrypt($key, $iv);
my $ciphertext = $m−>add('some data');
$ciphertext .= $m−>add('more data');
#decrypt more chunks
$m−>start_decrypt($key, $iv);
my $plaintext = $m−>add($some_ciphertext);
$plaintext .= $m−>add($more_ciphertext);

DESCRIPTION

This module implements OFB cipher mode. NOTE: it works only with ciphers from CryptX (Crypt::Cipher::NNNN).

METHODS

new

my $m = Crypt::Mode::OFB−>new($name);
#or
my $m = Crypt::Mode::OFB−>new($name, $cipher_rounds);
# $name ............ one of 'AES', 'Anubis', 'Blowfish', 'CAST5', 'Camellia', 'DES', 'DES_EDE',
# 'KASUMI', 'Khazad', 'MULTI2', 'Noekeon', 'RC2', 'RC5', 'RC6',
# 'SAFERP', 'SAFER_K128', 'SAFER_K64', 'SAFER_SK128', 'SAFER_SK64',
# 'SEED', 'Skipjack', 'Twofish', 'XTEA', 'IDEA', 'Serpent'
# simply any <NAME> for which there exists Crypt::Cipher::<NAME>
# $cipher_rounds ... optional num of rounds for given cipher

encrypt

my $ciphertext = $m−>encrypt($plaintext, $key, $iv);

decrypt

my $plaintext = $m−>decrypt($ciphertext, $key, $iv);

start_encrypt

$m−>start_encrypt($key, $iv);

start_decrypt

$m−>start_decrypt($key, $iv);

add

# in encrypt mode
my $plaintext = $m−>add($ciphertext);
# in decrypt mode
my $ciphertext = $m−>add($plaintext);
