go-srp

Credit: This is a fork of getinsomnia's implementation that is compatible with jsrp.

Installation

go get github.com/getinsomnia/go-srp

Usage

View GoDoc for full details

To use SRP, first decide on they parameters you will use. Both client and server must use the same set.

params := srp.GetParams(2048)

Account Creation

To create a new account, generate a verifier from the client, and store it on the server.

verifier := srp.ComputeVerifier(params, salt, identity, password)

Login

From the client... generate a new secret key, initialize the client, and compute A. Once you have A, you can send A to the server.

secret1 := srp.GenKey()
client := NewClient(params, salt, identity, secret, a)
srpA := client.computeA()

sendToServer(srpA)

From the server... generate another secret key, initialize the server, and compute B. Once you have B, you can send B to the client.

secret2 := srp.GenKey()
server := NewServer(params, verifier, secret2)
srpB := client.computeB()

sendToClient(srpB)

Once the client received B from the server, it can compute M1 based on A and B. Once you have M1, send M1 to the server.

client.setB(srpB)
srpM1 := client.ComputeM1()
sendM1ToServer(srpM1)

Once the server receives M1, it can verify that it is correct. If checkM1() returns an error, authentication failed. If it succeeds it should be sent to the client.

srpM2, err := server.checkM1(srpM1)

Once the client receives M2, it can verify that it is correct, and know that authentication was successful.

err = client.CheckM2(serverM2)

Now that both client and server have completed a successful authentication, they can both compute K independently. K can now be used as either a key to encrypt communication or as a session ID.

clientK := client.ComputeK()
serverK := server.ComputeK()
