Class SRP6ServerSession

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    public class SRP6ServerSession
    extends SRP6Session
    implements java.io.Serializable
    Stateful server-side Secure Remote Password (SRP-6a) authentication session. Handles the computing and storing of SRP-6a variables between the protocol steps as well as timeouts.

    Usage:

    • Create a new SRP-6a server session for each client authentication attempt.
    • If you wish to use custom routines for the server evidence message 'M1' and / or the client evidence message 'M2' specify them at this point.
    • Proceed to step one on receiving a valid user identity 'I' from the authenticating client. Respond with the server public value 'B' and password salt 's'. If the SRP-6a crypto parameters 'N', 'g' and 'H' were not agreed in advance between server and client append them to the response.
    • Proceed to step two on receiving the public client value 'A' and evidence message 'M1'. If the client credentials are valid signal success and return the server evidence message 'M2'. The established session key 'S' may be retrieved to encrypt further communication with the client. Else signal an authentication failure to the client.

        public SRP6ServerSession​(SRP6CryptoParams config,
                                 int timeout)
        Creates a new server-side SRP-6a authentication session and sets its state to SRP6ServerSession.State.INIT.
        Parameters:
        config - The SRP-6a crypto parameters configuration. Must not be null.
        timeout - The SRP-6a authentication session timeout in seconds. If the authenticating counterparty (server or client) fails to respond within the specified time the session will be closed. If zero timeouts are disabled.

        public SRP6ServerSession​(SRP6CryptoParams config)
        Creates a new server-side SRP-6a authentication session and sets its state to SRP6ServerSession.State.INIT. Session timeouts are disabled.
        Parameters:
        config - The SRP-6a crypto parameters configuration. Must not be null.

      • step1

        public java.math.BigInteger step1​(java.lang.String userID,
                                          java.math.BigInteger s,
                                          java.math.BigInteger v)
        Increments this SRP-6a authentication session to SRP6ServerSession.State.STEP_1.

        Argument origin:

        • From client: user identity 'I'.
        • From server database: matching salt 's' and password verifier 'v' values.
        Parameters:
        userID - The identity 'I' of the authenticating user. Must not be null or empty.
        s - The password salt 's'. Must not be null.
        v - The password verifier 'v'. Must not be null.
        Returns:
        The server public value 'B'.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the mehod is invoked in a state other than SRP6ServerSession.State.INIT.
      • mockStep1

        public java.math.BigInteger mockStep1​(java.lang.String userID,
                                              java.math.BigInteger s,
                                              java.math.BigInteger v)
        Increments this SRP-6a authentication session to SRP6ServerSession.State.STEP_1 indicating a non-existing user identity 'I' with mock (simulated) salt 's' and password verifier 'v' values.

        This method can be used to avoid informing the client at step one that the user identity is bad and throw instead a guaranteed general "bad credentials" SRP-6a exception at step two.

        Argument origin:

        • From client: user identity 'I'.
        • Simulated by server, preferably consistently for the specified identity 'I': salt 's' and password verifier 'v' values.
        Parameters:
        userID - The identity 'I' of the authenticating user. Must not be null or empty.
        s - The password salt 's'. Must not be null.
        v - The password verifier 'v'. Must not be null.
        Returns:
        The server public value 'B'.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the method is invoked in a state other than SRP6ServerSession.State.INIT.
      • step2

        public java.math.BigInteger step2​(java.math.BigInteger A,
                                          java.math.BigInteger M1)
                                   throws SRP6Exception
        Increments this SRP-6a authentication session to SRP6ServerSession.State.STEP_2.

        Argument origin:

        • From client: public value 'A' and evidence message 'M1'.
        Parameters:
        A - The client public value. Must not be null.
        M1 - The client evidence message. Must not be null.
        Returns:
        The server evidence message 'M2'.
        Throws:
        SRP6Exception - If the session has timed out, the client public value 'A' is invalid or the user credentials are invalid.
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the method is invoked in a state other than SRP6ServerSession.State.STEP_1.
      • getState

        public SRP6ServerSession.State getState()
        Returns the current state of this SRP-6a authentication session.
        Returns:
        The current state.
