Experimental Algorithms

The following algorithms are experimental and must not be used in production unless you know what you are doing. They are proposed for testing purpose only.

They are all part of the package web-token/jwt-encryption-algorithm-experimental

Key Encryption

• A128CTR, A192CTR and A256CTR: AES CTR based encryption.

• Chacha20+Poly1305 : Please note that this algorithm requires OpenSSL 1.1

• RSA-OAEP-384 and RSA-OAEP-512: Same algorithm as RSA-OAEP-256 but with SHA-384 and SHA-512 hashing functions.

Content Encryption

• AxxxCCM-16-128, AxxxCCM-16-64, AxxxCCM-64-128, AxxxCCM-64-64: AES-CCM based aalgorithms. xxx can be 128 or 256.

How To Use

These algorithms have to be used with the Algorithm Manager.

<?php
​
use Jose\Component\Core\AlgorithmManager;
use Jose\Component\Encryption\Algorithm\KeyEncryption\A128KW;
use Jose\Component\Encryption\Algorithm\KeyEncryption\PBES2HS256A128KW;
use Jose\Component\Encryption\Algorithm\ContentEncryption\A128CBCHS256;
​
$algorithmManager = new AlgorithmManager([
    new A128KW(),
    new PBES2HS256A128KW(),
    new A128CBCHS256(),
]);

By default, PBES2* algorithms use the following parameter values:

• Salt size: 64 bytes (512 bits)

• Count: 4096

You may need to use other values. This can be done during the instantiation of the algorithm:

Example with 16 bytes (128 bits) salt and 1024 counts:

<?php
​
use Jose\Component\Core\AlgorithmManager;
use Jose\Component\Encryption\Algorithm\KeyEncryption\PBES2HS256A128KW;
​
$algorithmManager = new AlgorithmManager([
    new PBES2HS256A128KW(16, 1024),
]);
