NAME

Crypt::Cipher::Camellia - Symmetric cipher Camellia, key size: 128/192/256 bits

SYNOPSIS

### example 1
use Crypt::Mode::CBC;

my $key = '...'; # length must be a valid key size for this cipher
my $iv = '...';  # 16 bytes
my $cbc = Crypt::Mode::CBC->new('Camellia');
my $ciphertext = $cbc->encrypt("secret data", $key, $iv);

### example 2 (slower)
use Crypt::CBC;
use Crypt::Cipher::Camellia;

my $key = '...'; # length must be a valid key size for this cipher
my $iv = '...';  # 16 bytes
my $cbc = Crypt::CBC->new( -cipher=>'Cipher::Camellia', -key=>$key, -iv=>$iv );
my $ciphertext = $cbc->encrypt("secret data");

DESCRIPTION

This module implements the Camellia cipher. Its interface is compatible with Crypt::CBC.

Note: This module only implements single-block encryption and decryption. For general data, use a block mode such as Crypt::Mode::CBC, Crypt::Mode::CTR, or Crypt::CBC (which is slower).

METHODS

Unless noted otherwise, assume $c is an existing cipher object created via new, for example:

my $c = Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->new($key);

new

my $c = Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->new($key);
#or
my $c = Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->new($key, $rounds);

# $key .... [binary string] key of an accepted length (see keysize, min_keysize, max_keysize)
# $rounds . [integer] optional, number of rounds (if supported by the cipher; croaks on invalid value)

encrypt

Encrypts exactly one block of plaintext. The length of $plaintext must equal "blocksize"; croaks otherwise. An empty string is accepted and returned unchanged.

my $ciphertext = $c->encrypt($plaintext);

Returns the encrypted block as a binary string (raw bytes).

decrypt

Decrypts exactly one block of ciphertext. The length of $ciphertext must equal "blocksize"; croaks otherwise. An empty string is accepted and returned unchanged.

my $plaintext = $c->decrypt($ciphertext);

Returns the decrypted block as a binary string (raw bytes).

keysize

Just an alias for max_keysize.

$c->keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia::keysize;

blocksize

Returns the cipher block size (in bytes).

$c->blocksize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->blocksize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia::blocksize;

max_keysize

Returns the maximum key size (in bytes).

$c->max_keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->max_keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia::max_keysize;

min_keysize

Returns the minimum key size (in bytes).

$c->min_keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->min_keysize;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia::min_keysize;

default_rounds

Returns the cipher's default round count.

$c->default_rounds;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia->default_rounds;
#or
Crypt::Cipher::Camellia::default_rounds;
