ECDSA Verify

ecdsa_verify is a pure Rust crate for verifying ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) signatures. This crate provides functions to handle elliptic curve operations and verify signatures against given message hashes and public keys.

Features

Supports the secp256k1 and secp256r1 elliptic curves.
Implements elliptic curve operations in Jacobian coordinates.
Provides a function to verify ECDSA signatures.

Installation

Add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
ecdsa_verify = "1.1"

Usage

use ecdsa_verify::{verify, Point3D, EcdsaSignature, secp256r1};
use num_bigint::BigInt;
use num_traits::Zero;

fn main() {
    let message_hash = hex::decode("48c08394455a5007945a9025c58be18f1795db8a6f8c12e70a00c1cdd6d3df78").unwrap();
    let sig = EcdsaSignature {
        r: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"7679932563960414347091205306595575529033945270189659289643076129390605281494", 10).unwrap(),
        s: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"47844299635965077418200610260443789525430653377570372618360888620298576429143", 10).unwrap(),
    };
    let public_key = Point3D {
        x: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"57742645121064378973436687487225580113493928349340781038880342836084265852815", 10).unwrap(),
        y: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"99327750397910171089097863507426920114029443958399733106031194020330646322282", 10).unwrap(),
        z: BigInt::zero(),
    };
    let curve = secp256r1();
    let is_valid = verify(&message_hash, &sig, &public_key, &curve);
    println!("Signature valid: {}", is_valid);
}
