Many + thanks to Peter Gutmann <pgut01@cs.auckland.ac.nz> for the + clarification and origional specification of RC2. BSAFE uses + this last parameter, 'bits'. It the key is 128 bits, BSAFE + also sets this parameter to 128. The old behaviour can be + duplicated by setting this parameter to 1024. + +1.0 08/04/96 - eay + First version of SSLeay with rc2. This has been written from the spec + posted sci.crypt. It is in this directory under rrc2.doc + I have no test values for any mode other than ecb, my wrappers for the + other modes should be ok since they are basically the same as + the ones taken from idea and des :-). I have implemented them as + little-endian operators. + While rc2 is included because it is used with SSL, I don't know how + far I trust it. It is about the same speed as IDEA and DES. + So if you are paranoid, used Tripple DES, else IDEA. If RC2 + does get used more, perhaps more people will look for weaknesses in + it. + + |
