slontis 3859a02725 Change PBES2 KDF default salt length to 16 bytes.
The PKCS5 (RFC 8018) standard uses a 64 bit salt length for PBE, and
recommends a minimum of 64 bits for PBES2. For FIPS compliance PBKDF2
requires a salt length of 128 bits.
This affects OpenSSL command line applications such as "genrsa" and "pkcs8"
and API's such as PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() that are reliant on the
default salt length.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
=head2 Key Derivation
PKCS5_PBE_keyivgen() and PKCS5_PBE_keyivgen_ex() take a password I<pass> of
length I<passlen>, parameters I<param> and a message digest function I<md_type>
and performs a key derivation according to PKCS#5 PBES1. The resulting key is
then used to initialise the cipher context I<ctx> with a cipher I<cipher> for
encryption (I<en_de>=1) or decryption (I<en_de>=0).
I<pass> is an optional parameter and can be NULL. If I<passlen> is -1, then the
function will calculate the length of I<pass> using strlen().
PKCS5_v2_PBE_keyivgen() and PKCS5_v2_PBE_keyivgen_ex() are similar to the above
but instead use PKCS#5 PBES2 as the encryption algorithm using the supplied
parameters.
PKCS5_v2_scrypt_keyivgen() and PKCS5_v2_scrypt_keyivgen_ex() use SCRYPT as the
key derivation part of the encryption algorithm.
I<salt> is the salt used in the derivation of length I<saltlen>. If the
I<salt> is NULL, then I<saltlen> must be 0. The function will not
attempt to calculate the length of the I<salt> because it is not assumed to
be NULL terminated.
I<iter> is the iteration count and its value should be greater than or
equal to 1. RFC 2898 suggests an iteration count of at least 1000. Any
I<iter> less than 1 is treated as a single iteration.
I<digest> is the message digest function used in the derivation.
Functions ending in _ex() take optional parameters I<libctx> and I<propq> which
are used to select appropriate algorithm implementations.
=head2 Algorithm Identifier Creation
PKCS5_pbe_set(), PKCS5_pbe_set_ex(), PKCS5_pbe2_set(), PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv(),
PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv_ex() and PKCS5_pbe2_set_scrypt() generate an B<X509_ALGOR>
object which represents an AlgorithmIdentifier containing the algorithm OID and
associated parameters for the PBE algorithm.
PKCS5_pbkdf2_set() and PKCS5_pbkdf2_set_ex() generate an B<X509_ALGOR>
object which represents an AlgorithmIdentifier containing the algorithm OID and
associated parameters for the PBKDF2 algorithm.
PKCS5_pbe_set0_algor() and PKCS5_pbe_set0_algor_ex() set the PBE algorithm OID and
parameters into the supplied B<X509_ALGOR>.
If I<salt> is NULL, then I<saltlen> specifies the size in bytes of the random salt to
generate. If I<saltlen> is 0 then a default size is used.
For PBE related functions such as PKCS5_pbe_set_ex() the default salt length is 8 bytes.
For PBE2 related functions that use PBKDF2 such as PKCS5_pbkdf2_set(),
PKCS5_pbe2_set_scrypt() and PKCS5_pbe2_set() the default salt length is 16 bytes.
=head1 NOTES
The *_keyivgen() functions are typically used in PKCS#12 to encrypt objects.
These functions make no assumption regarding the given password.
It will simply be treated as a byte sequence.
=head1 RETURN VALUES

PKCS5_pbe_set0_algor_ex() return 1 for success and 0 if an error occurs.
PKCS5_pbe_set(), PKCS5_pbe_set_ex(), PKCS5_pbe2_set(), PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv(),
PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv_ex(), PKCS5_pbe2_set_scrypt(),

=head1 HISTORY
PKCS5_v2_PBE_keyivgen_ex(), EVP_PBE_scrypt_ex(), PKCS5_v2_scrypt_keyivgen_ex(),
PKCS5_pbe_set0_algor_ex(), PKCS5_pbe_set_ex(), PKCS5_pbe2_set_iv_ex() and
PKCS5_pbkdf2_set_ex() were added in OpenSSL 3.0.
From OpenSSL 3.0 the PBKDF1 algorithm used in PKCS5_PBE_keyivgen() and
PKCS5_PBE_keyivgen_ex() has been moved to the legacy provider as an EVP_KDF.
In OpenSSL 3.2 the default salt length changed from 8 bytes to 16 bytes for PBE2
related functions such as PKCS5_pbe2_set().
This is required for PBKDF2 FIPS compliance.
