Botan C++ Crypto Algorithms Library 1.8.10

Posted Aug 31, 2010

Site botan.randombit.net

Botan is a C++ library of cryptographic algorithms, including AES, DES, SHA-1, RSA, DSA, Diffie-Hellman, and many others. It also supports X.509 certificates and CRLs, and PKCS #10 certificate requests, and has a high level filter/pipe message processing system. The library is easily portable to most systems and compilers, and includes a substantial tutorial and API reference.

Changes: This release makes a slight change to how AES is implemented, which makes some forms of cache analysis attacks significantly harder. The default algorithm used for encrypting private keys has changed from 3DES to AES-256, and the default iteration count used for hashing passwords to keys has increased from 2048 to 10000 iterations. Some changes for compatibility with the 1.9 development releases were also made.
