This module implements TEA, the Tiny Encryption Algorithm, and some Modes of
|
|
Use, in Perl and JavaScript.
|
|
|
|
The $key is a sufficiently longish string; at least 17 random 8-bit bytes for
|
|
single encryption.
|
|
|
|
Crypt::Tea_JS can be used for secret-key encryption in general, or, in
|
|
particular, to communicate securely between browser and web-host. In this case,
|
|
the simplest arrangement is for the user to enter the key into a JavaScript
|
|
variable, and for the host to retrieve that user's key from a database. Or, for
|
|
extra security, the first message (or even each message) between browser and
|
|
host could contain a random challenge-string, which each end would then turn
|
|
into a signature, and use that signature as the encryption-key for the session
|
|
(or the reply).
