`challenge-response` is a Rust library for performing [challenge-response](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/yubikey#Function_and_Application_of_Challenge-Response) operations (hashing and encryption) using security keys like the YubiKey and the OnlyKey.
## Current features
- [HMAC-SHA1 Challenge-Response](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2104)
- [Yubico OTP Challenge-Response encryption](https://docs.yubico.com/yesdk/users-manual/application-otp/yubico-otp.html)
- Challenge-Response configuration
## Supported devices
- YubiKey 2.2 and later
- OnlyKey (**untested**)
- NitroKey (**untested**)
## Usage
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`
```toml
[dependencies]
challenge_response = "0"
```
### nusb backend (EXPERIMENTAL)
You can enable the experimental [nusb](https://crates.io/crates/nusb) backend by adding the following to your `Cargo.toml` manifest:
```toml
[dependencies]
challenge_response = { version = "0", default-features = false, features = ["nusb"] }
```
The `nusb` backend has the advantage of not depending on `libusb`, thus making it easier to add
`challenge_response` to your dependencies.
> [!NOTE]
> The `nusb` feature is not available on Windows. If configured, the library will default to using the `rusb` backend instead.
### Perform a Challenge-Response (HMAC-SHA1 mode)
If you are using a YubiKey, you can configure the HMAC-SHA1 Challenge-Response
with the [Yubikey Personalization GUI](https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-personalization-gui/).
```rust,ignore
extern crate challenge_response;
extern crate hex;
use challenge_response::config::{Config, Mode, Slot};
use challenge_response::ChallengeResponse;
use std::ops::Deref;
fn main() {
let mut cr_client = match ChallengeResponse::new() {
Ok(c) => c,
Err(e) => {
eprintln!("{}", e.to_string());
return;
}
};
let device = match cr_client.find_device() {
Ok(d) => d,
Err(e) => {
eprintln!("Device not found: {}", e.to_string());
return;
}
};
println!(
"Vendor ID: {:?} Product ID {:?}",
device.vendor_id, device.product_id
);
let config = Config::new_from(device)
.set_variable_size(true)
.set_mode(Mode::Sha1)
.set_slot(Slot::Slot2);
// Challenge can not be greater than 64 bytes
let challenge = String::from("mychallenge");
// In HMAC Mode, the result will always be the
// SAME for the SAME provided challenge
let hmac_result = cr_client
.challenge_response_hmac(challenge.as_bytes(), config)
.unwrap();
// Just for debug, lets check the hex
let v: &[u8] = hmac_result.deref();
let hex_string = hex::encode(v);
println!("{}", hex_string);
}
```
### Configure Yubikey (HMAC-SHA1 mode)
Note, please read about the [initial configuration](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/yubikey#Initial_configuration)
Alternatively you can configure the yubikey with the official [Yubikey Personalization GUI](https://developers.yubico.com/yubikey-personalization-gui/).
```rust,ignore
extern crate challenge_response;
extern crate rand;
use challenge_response::config::{Command, Config};
use challenge_response::configure::DeviceModeConfig;
use challenge_response::hmacmode::{
HmacKey, HmacSecret, HMAC_SECRET_SIZE,
};
use challenge_response::ChallengeResponse;
use rand::distr::Alphanumeric;
use rand::{rng, Rng};
fn main() {
let mut cr_client = match ChallengeResponse::new() {
Ok(y) => y,
Err(e) => {
eprintln!("{}", e.to_string());
return;
}
};
let device = match cr_client.find_device() {
Ok(d) => d,
Err(e) => {
eprintln!("Device not found: {}", e.to_string());
return;
}
};
println!(
"Vendor ID: {:?} Product ID {:?}",
device.vendor_id, device.product_id
);
let config = Config::new_from(device)
.set_command(Command::Configuration2);
let mut rng = rng();
// Used rand here, but you can set your own secret:
// let secret: &HmacSecret = b"my_awesome_secret_20";
let secret: Vec<u8> = rng
.sample_iter(&Alphanumeric)
.take(HMAC_SECRET_SIZE)
.collect();
let hmac_key: HmacKey = HmacKey::from_slice(&secret);
let mut device_config = DeviceModeConfig::default();
device_config.challenge_response_hmac(&hmac_key, false, false);
if let Err(err) =
cr_client.write_config(config, &mut device_config)
{
println!("{:?}", err);
} else {
println!("Device configured");
}
}
```
