//! Trait definition for `IndCpaCipher`.

// `IndCpaCipher` provides an interface for symmetric key ciphers that are
// indistinguishable against chosen-plaintext attacks. Said primitives do not
// provide authentication, thus should not be used directly, but only to
// construct safer primitives such as AEAD.
pub trait IndCpaCipher: IndCpaCipherBoxClone {
    // Encrypt plaintext. The resulting ciphertext is indistinguishable under
    // chosen-plaintext attack. However, it does not have integrity protection.
    fn encrypt(&self, plaintext: &[u8]) -> Result<Vec<u8>, tink_core::TinkError>;

    // Decrypt ciphertext and returns the resulting plaintext.
    fn decrypt(&self, ciphertext: &[u8]) -> Result<Vec<u8>, tink_core::TinkError>;
}

/// Trait bound to indicate that primitive trait objects should support cloning
/// themselves as trait objects.
pub trait IndCpaCipherBoxClone {
    fn box_clone(&self) -> Box<dyn IndCpaCipher>;
}

/// Default implementation of the box-clone trait bound for any underlying
/// concrete type that implements [`Clone`].
