EVP_CAST5_CBC(3ossl)

📦 version 3.5.0, in opensuse-leap 16.0

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so this is the 3ossl manual page for EVP_CAST5_CBC, bestie. It covers EVP_cast5_cbc, EVP_cast5_cfb, EVP_cast5_cfb64, EVP_cast5_ecb, and EVP_cast5_ofb — aka the EVP CAST cipher crew. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <openssl/evp.h>

const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_cast5_cbc(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_cast5_cfb(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_cast5_cfb64(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_cast5_ecb(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_cast5_ofb(void);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The CAST encryption algorithm for EVP. fr fr, this is a variable key length cipher — that's the vibe.

🌈 the CAST mode besties 🌈

  • EVP_cast5_cbc(), EVP_cast5_ecb(), EVP_cast5_cfb(), EVP_cast5_cfb64(), EVP_cast5_ofb() — CAST encryption algorithm in CBC, ECB, CFB and OFB modes respectively. slay ✨

💀 NOTES 💀

⚠️ performance warning — Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these functions multiple times and should consider using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3) with EVP_CIPHER-CAST(7) instead. See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.

🫶 RETURN VALUES 🫶

These functions return an EVP_CIPHER structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. See EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_CIPHER structure. periodt 💖
