b918bf86c6 Fix combo_decrypt() to throw an error for zero-length input when using a
padded encryption scheme.  Formerly it would try to access res[(unsigned) -1],
which resulted in core dumps on 64-bit machines, and was certainly trouble
waiting to happen on 32-bit machines (though in at least the known case
it was harmless because that byte would be overwritten after return).
Per report from Ken Colson; fix by Marko Kreen.

87688ddf87 The large one adds support for RSA keys and reorganizes
the pubkey functions a bit.  The actual RSA-specific code
there is tiny, most of the patch consists of reorg of the
pubkey code, as lots of it was written as elgamal-only.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The SHLIB section was copy-pasted from somewhere and contains
several unnecessary libs.  This cleans it up a bit.

 -lcrypt
   we don't use system crypt()

 -lssl, -lssleay32
   no SSL here

 -lz in win32 section
   already added on previous line

 -ldes
   The chance anybody has it is pretty low.
   And the chance pgcrypto works with it is even lower.

Also trim the win32 section.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is already disabled in Makefile, remove code too.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was bit hasty making the random exponent 'k' a prime.  Further researh
shows that Elgamal encryption has no specific needs in respect to k,
any random number is fine.

It is bit different for signing, there it needs to be 'relatively prime'
to p - 1,  that means GCD(k, p-1) == 1, which is also a lot lighter than
full primality.  As we don't do signing, this can be ignored.

This brings major speedup to Elgamal encryption.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

o  pgp_mpi_free: Accept NULLs
o  pgp_mpi_cksum: result should be 16bit
o  Remove function name from error messages - to be similar to other
   SQL functions, and it does not match anyway the called function
o  remove couple junk lines

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

o  Support for RSA encryption
o  Big reorg to better separate generic and algorithm-specific code.
o  Regression tests for RSA.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

o  Tom stuck a CVS id into file.  I doubt the usefulness of it,
   but if it needs to be in the file then rather at the end.
   Also tag it as comment for asciidoc.
o  Mention bytea vs. text difference
o  Couple clarifications

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a choice whether to update it with pgp functions or
remove it.  I decided to remove it, updating is pointless.

I've tried to keep the core of pgcrypto relatively independent
from main PostgreSQL, to make it easy to use externally if needed,
and that is good.  Eg. that made development of PGP functions much
nicer.

But I have no plans to release it as generic library, so keeping such
doc
up-to-date is waste of time.  If anyone is interested in using it in
other products, he can probably bother to read the source too.

Commented source is another thing - I'll try to make another pass
over code to see if there is anything non-obvious that would need
more comments.

e997758cb6 More pgcrypto fixes: avoid bogus alignment assumptions in sha2,
be more wary about having a value for BYTE_ORDER, clean up randomly-
chosen ways of including Postgres core headers.

73e2431817 Major pgcrypto changes:
of password-based encryption from RFC2440 (OpenPGP).

The goal of this code is to be more featureful encryption solution
than current encrypt(), which only functionality is running cipher
over data.

Compared to encrypt(), pgp_encrypt() does following:

* It uses the equvialent of random Inital Vector to get cipher
  into random state before it processes user data
* Stores SHA-1 of the data into result so any modification
  will be detected.
* Remembers if data was text or binary - thus it can decrypt
  to/from text data.  This was a major nuisance for encrypt().
* Stores info about used algorithms with result, so user needs
  not remember them - more user friendly!
* Uses String2Key algorithms (similar to crypt()) with random salt
  to generate full-length binary key to be used for encrypting.
* Uses standard format for data - you can feed it to GnuPG, if needed.

Optional features (off by default):

* Can use separate session key - user data will be encrypted
  with totally random key, which will be encrypted with S2K
  generated key and attached to result.
* Data compression with zlib.
* Can convert between CRLF<->LF line-endings - to get fully
  RFC2440-compliant behaviour.  This is off by default as
  pgcrypto does not know the line-endings of user data.

Interface is simple:


    pgp_encrypt(data text, key text) returns bytea
    pgp_decrypt(data text, key text) returns text
    pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea
    pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea

To change parameters (cipher, compression, mdc):

    pgp_encrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns bytea
    pgp_decrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns text
    pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea
    pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea

Parameter names I lifted from gpg:

   pgp_encrypt('message', 'key', 'compress-algo=1,cipher-algo=aes256')

For text data, pgp_encrypt simply encrypts the PostgreSQL internal data.

This maps to RFC2440 data type 't' - 'extenally specified encoding'.
But this may cause problems if data is dumped and reloaded into database
which as different internal encoding.  My next goal is to implement data
type 'u' - which means data is in UTF-8 encoding by converting internal
encoding to UTF-8 and back.  And there wont be any compatibility
problems with current code, I think its ok to submit this without UTF-8
encoding by converting internal encoding to UTF-8 and back.  And there
wont be any compatibility problems with current code, I think its ok to
submit this without UTF-8 support.


Here is v4 of PGP encrypt.  This depends on previously sent
Fortuna-patch, as it uses the px_add_entropy function.

- New function: pgp_key_id() for finding key id's.
- Add SHA1 of user data and key into RNG pools.  We need to get
  randomness from somewhere, and it is in user best interests
  to contribute.
- Regenerate pgp-armor test for SQL_ASCII database.
- Cleanup the key handling so that the pubkey support is less
  hackish.

19b676869a pgcrypto update:
Reserve px_get_random_bytes() for strong randomness,
add new function px_get_pseudo_random_bytes() for
weak randomness and use it in gen_salt().

On openssl case, use RAND_pseudo_bytes() for
px_get_pseudo_random_bytes().

Final result is that is user has not configured random
souce but kept the 'silly' one, gen_salt() keeps
working, but pgp_encrypt() will throw error.

b160d6b9dc pgcrypto update:
* Use error codes instead of -1
* px_strerror for new error codes
* calling convention change for px_gen_salt - return error code
* use px_strerror in pgcrypto.c

0bd61548ab Solve the 'Turkish problem' with undesirable locale behavior for case
conversion of basic ASCII letters.  Remove all uses of strcasecmp and
strncasecmp in favor of new functions pg_strcasecmp and pg_strncasecmp;
remove most but not all direct uses of toupper and tolower in favor of
pg_toupper and pg_tolower.  These functions use the same notions of
case folding already developed for identifier case conversion.  I left
the straight locale-based folding in place for situations where we are
just manipulating user data and not trying to match it to built-in
strings --- for example, the SQL upper() function is still locale
dependent.  Perhaps this will prove not to be what's wanted, but at
the moment we can initdb and pass regression tests in Turkish locale.

92288a1cf9 Change made to elog:
o  Change all current CVS messages of NOTICE to WARNING.  We were going
to do this just before 7.3 beta but it has to be done now, as you will
see below.

o Change current INFO messages that should be controlled by
client_min_messages to NOTICE.

o Force remaining INFO messages, like from EXPLAIN, VACUUM VERBOSE, etc.
to always go to the client.

o Remove INFO from the client_min_messages options and add NOTICE.

Seems we do need three non-ERROR elog levels to handle the various
behaviors we need for these messages.

Regression passed.

540155b777 pgcrypto uses non-standard type uint, which causes compile
failures on FreeBSD.  This patch replaces uint -> unsigned.

This was reported by Daniel Holtzman against 0.4pre3 standalone
package, but it needs fixing in contrib/pgcrypto too.
