.. hazmat::
RSA
===
.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa
`RSA`_ is a `public-key`_ algorithm for encrypting and signing messages.
.. class:: RSAPrivateKey(p, q, private_exponent, dmp1, dmq1, iqmp, public_exponent, modulus)
.. versionadded:: 0.2
An RSA private key is required for decryption and signing of messages.
You should use :meth:`~generate` to generate new keys.
.. warning::
This method only checks a limited set of properties of its arguments.
Using an RSA private key that you do not trust or with incorrect
parameters may lead to insecure operation, crashes, and other undefined
behavior. We recommend that you only ever load private keys that were
generated with software you trust.
This class conforms to the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.RSAPrivateKey`
interface.
:raises TypeError: This is raised when the arguments are not all integers.
:raises ValueError: This is raised when the values of ``p``, ``q``,
``private_exponent``, ``public_exponent``, or
``modulus`` do not match the bounds specified in
:rfc:`3447`.
.. classmethod:: generate(public_exponent, key_size, backend)
Generate a new ``RSAPrivateKey`` instance using ``backend``.
:param int public_exponent: The public exponent of the new key.
Usually one of the small Fermat primes 3, 5, 17, 257, 65537. If in
doubt you should `use 65537`_.
:param int key_size: The length of the modulus in bits. For keys
generated in 2014 it is strongly recommended to be
`at least 2048`_ (See page 41). It must not be less than 512.
Some backends may have additional limitations.
:param backend: A
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend`
provider.
:return: A new instance of ``RSAPrivateKey``.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if
the provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend`
.. method:: signer(padding, algorithm, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.3
Sign data which can be verified later by others using the public key.
.. doctest::
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric import rsa, padding
>>> private_key = rsa.RSAPrivateKey.generate(
... public_exponent=65537,
... key_size=2048,
... backend=default_backend()
... )
>>> signer = private_key.signer(
... padding.PSS(
... mgf=padding.MGF1(hashes.SHA256()),
... salt_length=padding.PSS.MAX_LENGTH
... ),
... hashes.SHA256(),
... default_backend()
... )
>>> signer.update(b"this is some data I'd like")
>>> signer.update(b" to sign")
>>> signature = signer.finalize()
:param padding: An instance of a
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:param algorithm: An instance of a
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.HashAlgorithm`
provider.
:param backend: A
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend`
provider.
:returns:
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricSignatureContext`
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if
the provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend` or if
the backend does not support the chosen hash or padding algorithm.
If the padding is
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.PSS`
with the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.MGF1`
mask generation function it may also refer to the ``MGF1`` hash
algorithm.
:raises TypeError: This is raised when the padding is not an
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:raises ValueError: This is raised when the chosen hash algorithm is
too large for the key size.
.. method:: decrypt(ciphertext, padding, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.4
Decrypt data that was encrypted via the public key.
:param bytes ciphertext: The ciphertext to decrypt.
:param padding: An instance of a
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:param backend: A
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend`
provider.
:return bytes: Decrypted data.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if
the provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend` or if
the backend does not support the chosen hash or padding algorithm.
:raises TypeError: This is raised when the padding is not an
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:raises ValueError: This is raised when decryption fails or the chosen
hash algorithm is too large for the key size.
.. class:: RSAPublicKey(public_exponent, modulus)
.. versionadded:: 0.2
An RSA public key is required for encryption and verification of messages.
Normally you do not need to directly construct public keys because you'll
be loading them from a file, generating them automatically or receiving
them from a 3rd party.
This class conforms to the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.RSAPublicKey`
interface.
:raises TypeError: This is raised when the arguments are not all integers.
:raises ValueError: This is raised when the values of ``public_exponent``
or ``modulus`` do not match the bounds specified in
:rfc:`3447`.
.. method:: verifier(signature, padding, algorithm, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.3
Verify data was signed by the private key associated with this public
key.
.. doctest::
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric import rsa, padding
>>> private_key = rsa.RSAPrivateKey.generate(
... public_exponent=65537,

... mgf=padding.MGF1(hashes.SHA256()),
... salt_length=padding.PSS.MAX_LENGTH
... ),
... hashes.SHA256(),
... default_backend()
... )
>>> verifier.update(data)
>>> verifier.verify()
:param bytes signature: The signature to verify.
:param padding: An instance of a
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:param algorithm: An instance of a
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.HashAlgorithm`
provider.
:param backend: A
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend`
provider.
:returns:
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricVerificationContext`
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if
the provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.RSABackend` or if
the backend does not support the chosen hash or padding algorithm.
If the padding is
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.PSS`
with the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.MGF1`
mask generation function it may also refer to the ``MGF1`` hash
algorithm.

:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.interfaces.AsymmetricPadding`
provider.
:raises ValueError: This is raised when the chosen hash algorithm is
too large for the key size.
Handling partial RSA private keys
---------------------------------
If you are trying to load RSA private keys yourself you may find that not all
parameters required by ``RSAPrivateKey`` are available. In particular the
`Chinese Remainder Theorem`_ (CRT) values ``dmp1``, ``dmq1``, ``iqmp`` may be
missing or present in a different form. For example `OpenPGP`_ does not include
the ``iqmp``, ``dmp1`` or ``dmq1`` parameters.
The following functions are provided for users who want to work with keys like
this without having to do the math themselves.
.. function:: rsa_crt_iqmp(p, q)
.. versionadded:: 0.4
Generates the ``iqmp`` (also known as ``qInv``) parameter from the RSA
primes ``p`` and ``q``.
.. function:: rsa_crt_dmp1(private_exponent, p)
.. versionadded:: 0.4
Generates the ``dmp1`` parameter from the RSA private exponent and prime
``p``.
.. function:: rsa_crt_dmq1(private_exponent, q)
.. versionadded:: 0.4
Generates the ``dmq1`` parameter from the RSA private exponent and prime
``q``.
