Remember to use the '-a' auto-convert text files option when unzipping on a Unix machine. After downloading, please read the Readme.txt included in the zip archive for build instructions and other important notes.
Crypto++ used to supply a compiled DLL for Windows platforms. The library is now listed on the CMVP's Historical Validation List. It effectively means the library is no longer validated. If you are interested in sponsoring a validation, then please send a message to the mailing list to start a conversation.
You can find the FIPS DLL downloads on the Downloads page.
There are two mailing lists for Crypto++. The first is cryptopp-announce@googlegroups.com, and the second is cryptopp-users@googlegroups.com.
As a courtesy, please join the discussion list with your real name instead of an online handle. Alternate webviews are for the lists are available at Crypto++ Announce - Google Groups and Crypto++ Users - Google Groups.
When posting a question to the Crypto++ user mailing list, please provide the following information, if applicable:
Crypto++ attempts to resist side channel attacks using various remediations. We believe the library is hardened but the remdiations may be incomplete. The first line of defense uses hardware instructions when possible. The library also uses constant-time, cache-aware algoirthms and access patterns to minimize leakage. If you suspect or find an information leak then please report it.
Elliptic curves over binary fields are believed to leak information. The task is a work in progress. We don't believe binary fields are used in production, so we feel it is a low risk at the moment.
Crypto++ does not enagage Specter remediations at this time. The GCC options for Specter are -mfunction-return=thunk and -mindirect-branch=thunk. If you want the Specter workarounds then add the GCC options to your CXXFLAGS when building the library. The library tests the options and they should work as expected.
The source code and its planned changes are available at the following locations.
Contributions of all types are welcomed. Contributions include the following.
If you think you have found a bug in the library, then you should discuss it on the Users mailing list. Discussing it will help bring the issue to the attention of folks who can help resolve the issue. If you want to contribute a bug fix to the library, then make a Pull Request or make a Diff available somewhere. Also see Bug Reports on the wiki.
Features and enhancements are welcomend additions to the library. This category tends to be time consuming because algorithms and their test cases need to be reviewed and merged. Please be mindful of the test cases, and attempt to procure them from an independent source.
The library cherishes test scripts and test cases. They ensure the library is fit and they help uncover issues with the library before users experience them. If you have some time, then write some test cases, especially the ones that are intended to break things.
Branch and release testing is your chance to ensure Master (and planned merges) meets your expectations and perform as expected. If you have a few spare cycles, then please test Master on your favorite platform. We need more testing on MinGW, Windows Phone, Windows Store, Solaris 10 (and below), and modern iOS and OS X (including TV and Watch builds).
Documentation and updates includes both the inline source code annotations using Doxygen, and the online information provided in the wiki. The wiki is more verbose and usually provides more contextual information than the API reference. Besides testing, documentation is one of the highest returns on investment.
