Crate cose

CBOR Object Signing and Encryption, COSE (RFC 8152), implementation for Rust.

This library offers a set of methods and structures to help encoding/decoding a COSE message, including the respective cryptographic operations with the given parameters.

The cryptographic functions used in this library are from the rust-openssl and rand crates and the CBOR encoding/decoding methods are from the cbor-codec crate.

Examples

The following examples, demonstrate how to encode and decode COSE messages in different types without the recipients/signers bucket. Examples with the recipients/signers bucket can be found in the modules message and agent.

cose-sign1

Encode cose-sign1 message

use cose::message::CoseMessage;
use cose::keys;
use cose::algs;
use hex;

fn main() {
    let msg = b"This is the content.".to_vec();
    let kid = b"11".to_vec();

    // cose-key to encode the message
    let mut key = keys::CoseKey::new();
    key.kty(keys::EC2);
    key.alg(algs::ES512);
    key.crv(keys::P_256);
    key.x(hex::decode("bac5b11cad8f99f9c72b05cf4b9e26d244dc189f745228255a219a86d6a09eff").unwrap());
    key.y(hex::decode("20138bf82dc1b6d562be0fa54ab7804a3a64b6d72ccfed6b6fb6ed28bbfc117e").unwrap());

    key.key_ops(vec![keys::KEY_OPS_SIGN]);

    // Prepare cose-sign1 message
    let mut sign1 = CoseMessage::new_sign();
    sign1.header.alg(algs::ES512, true, false);
    sign1.header.kid(kid, true, false);
    sign1.payload(msg);
    sign1.key(&key).unwrap();

    // Generate the signature
