11.29. PKCS #5 and PKCS #5-style password-based encryption mechanisms
The mechanisms in this section are for generating keys and IVs for performing password-based encryption. The method used to generate keys and IVs is specified in PKCS #5.
MD2-PBE for DES-CBC, denoted CKM_PBE_MD2_DES_CBC, is a mechanism used for generating a DES secret key and an IV from a password and a salt value by using the MD2 digest algorithm and an iteration count. This functionality is defined in PKCS#5.
It has a parameter, a CK_PBE_PARAMS structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism.
11.29.2. MD5-PBE for DES-CBC
MD5-PBE for DES-CBC, denoted CKM_PBE_MD5_DES_CBC, is a mechanism used for generating a DES secret key and an IV from a password and a salt value by using the MD5 digest algorithm and an iteration count. This functionality is defined in PKCS#5.
It has a parameter, a CK_PBE_PARAMS structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism.
11.29.3. MD5-PBE for CAST-CBC
MD5-PBE for CAST-CBC, denoted CKM_PBE_MD5_CAST_CBC, is a mechanism used for generating a CAST secret key and an IV from a password and a salt value by using the MD5 digest algorithm and an iteration count. This functionality is analogous to that defined in PKCS#5 for MD5 and DES.
It has a parameter, a CK_PBE_PARAMS structure. The parameter specifies the input information for the key generation process and the location of the application-supplied buffer which will receive the 8-byte IV generated by the mechanism.
The length of the CAST key generated by this mechanism may be specified in the supplied template; if it is not present in the template, it defaults to 8 bytes.
