Description

The Crypto class provides access to advanced cryptographic functionalities.

Currently, this includes asymmetric key encryption/decryption, signing/verification, and generating cryptographically secure random bytes, RSA keys, HMAC digests, and self-signed X509Certificate\ s.

    var crypto = Crypto.new()

# Generate new RSA key.
var key = crypto.generate_rsa(4096)

# Generate new self-signed certificate with the given key.
var cert = crypto.generate_self_signed_certificate(key, "CN=mydomain.com,O=My Game Company,C=IT")

# Save key and certificate in the user folder.
key.save("user://generated.key")
cert.save("user://generated.crt")

# Encryption
var data = "Some data"
var encrypted = crypto.encrypt(key, data.to_utf8_buffer())

# Decryption
var decrypted = crypto.decrypt(key, encrypted)

# Signing
var signature = crypto.sign(HashingContext.HASH_SHA256, data.sha256_buffer(), key)

# Verifying
var verified = crypto.verify(HashingContext.HASH_SHA256, data.sha256_buffer(), signature, key)

# Checks
assert(verified)
assert(data.to_utf8_buffer() == decrypted)
    using Godot;
using System.Diagnostics;

Crypto crypto = new Crypto();

// Generate new RSA key.
CryptoKey key = crypto.GenerateRsa(4096);

// Generate new self-signed certificate with the given key.
X509Certificate cert = crypto.GenerateSelfSignedCertificate(key, "CN=mydomain.com,O=My Game Company,C=IT");

// Save key and certificate in the user folder.
key.Save("user://generated.key");
cert.Save("user://generated.crt");

// Encryption
string data = "Some data";
byte[] encrypted = crypto.Encrypt(key, data.ToUtf8Buffer());

// Decryption
byte[] decrypted = crypto.Decrypt(key, encrypted);

// Signing
byte[] signature = crypto.Sign(HashingContext.HashType.Sha256, Data.Sha256Buffer(), key);

// Verifying
bool verified = crypto.Verify(HashingContext.HashType.Sha256, Data.Sha256Buffer(), signature, key);

// Checks
Debug.Assert(verified);
Debug.Assert(data.ToUtf8Buffer() == decrypted);

Method Descriptions

bool constant_time_compare\ (\ trusted: PackedByteArray, received: PackedByteArray\ ) 🔗

Compares two PackedByteArray\ s for equality without leaking timing information in order to prevent timing attacks.

See this blog post for more information.


PackedByteArray decrypt\ (\ key: CryptoKey, ciphertext: PackedByteArray\ ) 🔗

Decrypt the given ciphertext with the provided private key.

\ Note: The maximum size of accepted ciphertext is limited by the key size.


PackedByteArray encrypt\ (\ key: CryptoKey, plaintext: PackedByteArray\ ) 🔗

Encrypt the given plaintext with the provided public key.

\ Note: The maximum size of accepted plaintext is limited by the key size.


PackedByteArray generate_random_bytes\ (\ size: int\ ) 🔗

Generates a PackedByteArray of cryptographically secure random bytes with given size.


CryptoKey generate_rsa\ (\ size: int\ ) 🔗

Generates an RSA CryptoKey that can be used for creating self-signed certificates and passed to StreamPeerTLS.accept_stream().


X509Certificate generate_self_signed_certificate\ (\ key: CryptoKey, issuer_name: String = "CN=myserver,O=myorganisation,C=IT", not_before: String = "20140101000000", not_after: String = "20340101000000"\ ) 🔗

Generates a self-signed X509Certificate from the given CryptoKey and issuer_name. The certificate validity will be defined by not_before and not_after (first valid date and last valid date). The issuer_name must contain at least "CN=" (common name, i.e. the domain name), "O=" (organization, i.e. your company name), "C=" (country, i.e. 2 lettered ISO-3166 code of the country the organization is based in).

A small example to generate an RSA key and an X509 self-signed certificate.

    var crypto = Crypto.new()
# Generate 4096 bits RSA key.
var key = crypto.generate_rsa(4096)
# Generate self-signed certificate using the given key.
var cert = crypto.generate_self_signed_certificate(key, "CN=example.com,O=A Game Company,C=IT")
    var crypto = new Crypto();
// Generate 4096 bits RSA key.
CryptoKey key = crypto.GenerateRsa(4096);
// Generate self-signed certificate using the given key.
X509Certificate cert = crypto.GenerateSelfSignedCertificate(key, "CN=mydomain.com,O=My Game Company,C=IT");

PackedByteArray hmac_digest\ (\ hash_type: HashType, key: PackedByteArray, msg: PackedByteArray\ ) 🔗

Generates an HMAC digest of msg using key. The hash_type parameter is the hashing algorithm that is used for the inner and outer hashes.

Currently, only HashingContext.HASH_SHA256 and HashingContext.HASH_SHA1 are supported.


PackedByteArray sign\ (\ hash_type: HashType, hash: PackedByteArray, key: CryptoKey\ ) 🔗

Sign a given hash of type hash_type with the provided private key.


bool verify\ (\ hash_type: HashType, hash: PackedByteArray, signature: PackedByteArray, key: CryptoKey\ ) 🔗

Verify that a given signature for hash of type hash_type against the provided public key.
