Class MGF1ParameterSpec

java.lang.Object

java.security.spec.MGF1ParameterSpec

All Implemented Interfaces:: AlgorithmParameterSpec

public class MGF1ParameterSpec extends Object implements AlgorithmParameterSpec

This class specifies the set of parameters used with mask generation function MGF1 in OAEP Padding and RSASSA-PSS signature scheme, as defined in the PKCS#1 v2.2 standard.

Its ASN.1 definition in PKCS#1 standard is described below:

PKCS1MGFAlgorithms    ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
  { OID id-mgf1 PARAMETERS HashAlgorithm },
  ...  -- Allows for future expansion --
}

where

HashAlgorithm ::= AlgorithmIdentifier {
  {OAEP-PSSDigestAlgorithms}
}

OAEP-PSSDigestAlgorithms    ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
  { OID id-sha1       PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha224     PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha256     PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha384     PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha512     PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha512-224 PARAMETERS NULL }|
  { OID id-sha512-256 PARAMETERS NULL },
  ...  -- Allows for future expansion --
}
