Hi,
When I call DH_compute_key(), I get a core dump. If I run DH_check
over the parameters passed to DH_compute_key() I get bit 1 set, which
according to dh.h means that number generated is not prime; presumably,
this is causing DH_compute_key() to croak.
This is a short excerpt:
unsigned char *client_key;
BIGNUM client_key;
DH *dh_struct;
dh_struct= DH_new();
dh_struct= DH_generate_parameters(64, 5, NULL, NULL);
DH_check(dh_struct, dh_error);
DH_generate_key(dh_struct);
DH_compute_key(dh_secret, &client_key, dh_struct);
I do this to generate the keys once for the server, and once for the
client; it works fine on the client, but not on the server (the code is
essentially the same for both of them).
Am I passing the correct parameters to DH_generate_parameters? Any
ideas?
josh.
