This provides a minor optimisation for ed25519 signature verification, when used without the -DED25519_COMPAT feature, to strictly check for a fully reduced scalar, `s`, component in variable time by first checking that the most significant *four* bits are unset, and only if any of them are set proceed to the `sc25519_is_canonical` check which performs the full reduction. This should result in succeeding fast for the check on roughly half of all well-formed, canonicalised signatures. This is safely backwards compatible with the previous implementation of strict checking for signature scalars.
Sodium is a new, easy-to-use software library for encryption, decryption, signatures, password hashing and more.
It is a portable, cross-compilable, installable, packageable fork of NaCl, with a compatible API, and an extended API to improve usability even further.
Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to build higher-level cryptographic tools.
Sodium supports a variety of compilers and operating systems, including Windows (with MingW or Visual Studio, x86 and x64), iOS, Android, as well as Javascript and Webassembly.
Documentation
The documentation is available on Gitbook and built from the libsodium-doc repository:
- libsodium documentation - online, requires Javascript.
- offline documentation in PDF format.
Integrity Checking
The integrity checking instructions (including the signing key for libsodium) are available in the installation section of the documentation.
