Doubt regarding Export keying material

[Raja ashok <raja.ashok@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

 

I am having a doubt in usage of Exporting keying material API (SSL_export_keying_material) in OpenSSL. Please provide your suggestions.

 

As per Section 4 in RFC 5705, context length should be passed as uint16_t to PRF function. In that case we should allow only upto max of 2^16 (65535). So user should not pass more than 65535 value to “plen” in SSL_export_keying_material right ?

 

Please provide your valuable suggestion on this. I am referring 1.0.2k version of OpenSSL.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Ashok
