.. hazmat::
Key derivation functions
========================
.. module:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf
Key derivation functions derive bytes suitable for cryptographic operations
from passwords or other data sources using a pseudo-random function (PRF).
Different KDFs are suitable for different tasks such as:
* Cryptographic key derivation
Deriving a key suitable for use as input to an encryption algorithm.
Typically this means taking a password and running it through an algorithm
such as :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.pbkdf2.PBKDF2HMAC` or
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf.HKDF`.
This process is typically known as `key stretching`_.
* Password storage
When storing passwords you want to use an algorithm that is computationally
intensive. Legitimate users will only need to compute it once (for example,
taking the user's password, running it through the KDF, then comparing it
to the stored value), while attackers will need to do it billions of times.
Ideal password storage KDFs will be demanding on both computational and
memory resources.
.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.pbkdf2
.. class:: PBKDF2HMAC(algorithm, length, salt, iterations, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.2
`PBKDF2`_ (Password Based Key Derivation Function 2) is typically used for
deriving a cryptographic key from a password. It may also be used for
key storage, but an alternate key storage KDF such as
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.scrypt.Scrypt` is generally
considered a better solution.
This class conforms to the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.KeyDerivationFunction`
interface.
.. doctest::
>>> import os
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.pbkdf2 import PBKDF2HMAC
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> backend = default_backend()
>>> # Salts should be randomly generated
>>> salt = os.urandom(16)
>>> # derive
>>> kdf = PBKDF2HMAC(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=salt,
... iterations=100000,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> key = kdf.derive(b"my great password")
>>> # verify
>>> kdf = PBKDF2HMAC(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=salt,
... iterations=100000,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> kdf.verify(b"my great password", key)
:param algorithm: An instance of
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hashes.HashAlgorithm`.
:param int length: The desired length of the derived key in bytes. Maximum
is (2\ :sup:`32` - 1) * ``algorithm.digest_size``.
:param bytes salt: A salt. Secure values [#nist]_ are 128-bits (16 bytes)
or longer and randomly generated.
:param int iterations: The number of iterations to perform of the hash
function. This can be used to control the length of time the operation
takes. Higher numbers help mitigate brute force attacks against derived
keys. See OWASP's `Password Storage Cheat Sheet`_ for more
detailed recommendations if you intend to use this for password storage.
:param backend: An instance of
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.PBKDF2HMACBackend`.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if the
provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.PBKDF2HMACBackend`
:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``salt`` is not ``bytes``.
.. method:: derive(key_material)
:param key_material: The input key material. For PBKDF2 this
should be a password.
:type key_material: :term:`bytes-like`
:return bytes: the derived key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when
:meth:`derive` or
:meth:`verify` is
called more than
once.
:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``key_material`` is not
``bytes``.
This generates and returns a new key from the supplied password.
.. method:: verify(key_material, expected_key)
:param bytes key_material: The input key material. This is the same as
``key_material`` in :meth:`derive`.
:param bytes expected_key: The expected result of deriving a new key,
this is the same as the return value of
:meth:`derive`.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.InvalidKey: This is raised when the
derived key does not match
the expected key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when
:meth:`derive` or
:meth:`verify` is
called more than
once.
This checks whether deriving a new key from the supplied
``key_material`` generates the same key as the ``expected_key``, and
raises an exception if they do not match. This can be used for
checking whether the password a user provides matches the stored derived
key.
.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf
.. class:: HKDF(algorithm, length, salt, info, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.2
`HKDF`_ (HMAC-based Extract-and-Expand Key Derivation Function) is suitable
for deriving keys of a fixed size used for other cryptographic operations.
.. warning::
HKDF should not be used for password storage.
.. doctest::
>>> import os
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf import HKDF
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> backend = default_backend()
>>> salt = os.urandom(16)
>>> info = b"hkdf-example"
>>> hkdf = HKDF(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=salt,
... info=info,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> key = hkdf.derive(b"input key")
>>> hkdf = HKDF(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=salt,
... info=info,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> hkdf.verify(b"input key", key)
:param algorithm: An instance of
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hashes.HashAlgorithm`.
:param int length: The desired length of the derived key in bytes. Maximum
is ``255 * (algorithm.digest_size // 8)``.
:param bytes salt: A salt. Randomizes the KDF's output. Optional, but
highly recommended. Ideally as many bits of entropy as the security
level of the hash: often that means cryptographically random and as
long as the hash output. Worse (shorter, less entropy) salt values can
still meaningfully contribute to security. May be reused. Does not have
to be secret, but may cause stronger security guarantees if secret; see
:rfc:`5869` and the `HKDF paper`_ for more details. If ``None`` is
explicitly passed a default salt of ``algorithm.digest_size // 8`` null
bytes will be used.
:param bytes info: Application specific context information. If ``None``
is explicitly passed an empty byte string will be used.
:param backend: An instance of
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.HMACBackend`.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm: This is raised if the
provided ``backend`` does not implement
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.HMACBackend`
:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``salt`` or ``info`` is not
``bytes``.
.. method:: derive(key_material)
:param key_material: The input key material.
:type key_material: :term:`bytes-like`
:return bytes: The derived key.
:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``key_material`` is not
``bytes``.
Derives a new key from the input key material by performing both the
extract and expand operations.
.. method:: verify(key_material, expected_key)
:param bytes key_material: The input key material. This is the same as
``key_material`` in :meth:`derive`.
:param bytes expected_key: The expected result of deriving a new key,
this is the same as the return value of
:meth:`derive`.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.InvalidKey: This is raised when the
derived key does not match
the expected key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when
:meth:`derive` or
:meth:`verify` is
called more than
once.
This checks whether deriving a new key from the supplied
``key_material`` generates the same key as the ``expected_key``, and
raises an exception if they do not match.
.. class:: HKDFExpand(algorithm, length, info, backend)
.. versionadded:: 0.5
HKDF consists of two stages, extract and expand. This class exposes an
expand only version of HKDF that is suitable when the key material is
already cryptographically strong.
.. warning::
HKDFExpand should only be used if the key material is
cryptographically strong. You should use
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf.HKDF` if
you are unsure.
.. doctest::
>>> import os
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf import HKDFExpand
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> backend = default_backend()
>>> info = b"hkdf-example"
>>> key_material = os.urandom(16)
>>> hkdf = HKDFExpand(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... info=info,

... )
>>> key = hkdf.derive(key_material)
>>> hkdf = HKDFExpand(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... info=info,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> hkdf.verify(key_material, key)
:param algorithm: An instance of
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hashes.HashAlgorithm`.
:param int length: The desired length of the derived key in bytes. Maximum
is ``255 * (algorithm.digest_size // 8)``.
:param bytes info: Application specific context information. If ``None``
is explicitly passed an empty byte string will be used.
:param backend: An instance of

.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.scrypt
.. class:: Scrypt(salt, length, n, r, p, backend)
.. versionadded:: 1.6
Scrypt is a KDF designed for password storage by Colin Percival to be
resistant against hardware-assisted attackers by having a tunable memory
cost. It is described in :rfc:`7914`.
This class conforms to the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.KeyDerivationFunction`
interface.
.. doctest::

>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.scrypt import Scrypt

>>> backend = default_backend()
>>> salt = os.urandom(16)

... r=8,
... p=1,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> key = kdf.derive(b"my great password")
>>> # verify
>>> kdf = Scrypt(
... salt=salt,
... length=32,
... n=2**14,
... r=8,
... p=1,
... backend=backend
... )
>>> kdf.verify(b"my great password", key)
:param bytes salt: A salt.
:param int length: The desired length of the derived key in bytes.
:param int n: CPU/Memory cost parameter. It must be larger than 1 and be a
power of 2.
:param int r: Block size parameter.
:param int p: Parallelization parameter.
The computational and memory cost of Scrypt can be adjusted by manipulating
the 3 parameters: ``n``, ``r``, and ``p``. In general, the memory cost of
Scrypt is affected by the values of both ``n`` and ``r``, while ``n`` also
determines the number of iterations performed. ``p`` increases the
computational cost without affecting memory usage. A more in-depth
explanation of the 3 parameters can be found `here`_.
:rfc:`7914` `recommends`_ values of ``r=8`` and ``p=1`` while scaling ``n``
to a number appropriate for your system. `The scrypt paper`_ suggests a
minimum value of ``n=2**14`` for interactive logins (t < 100ms), or
``n=2**20`` for more sensitive files (t < 5s).

the expected key.
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: This is raised when

once.
This checks whether deriving a new key from the supplied
``key_material`` generates the same key as the ``expected_key``, and
raises an exception if they do not match. This can be used for
checking whether the password a user provides matches the stored derived
key.
