.. hazmat::
X448 key exchange
===================
.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.x448
X448 is an elliptic curve `Diffie-Hellman key exchange`_ using `Curve448`_.
It allows two parties to jointly agree on a shared secret using an insecure
channel.
Exchange Algorithm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For most applications the ``shared_key`` should be passed to a key
derivation function. This allows mixing of additional information into the
key, derivation of multiple keys, and destroys any structure that may be
present.
.. doctest::
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.x448 import X448PrivateKey
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.hkdf import HKDF
>>> # Generate a private key for use in the exchange.
>>> private_key = X448PrivateKey.generate()
>>> # In a real handshake the peer_public_key will be received from the
>>> # other party. For this example we'll generate another private key and
>>> # get a public key from that. Note that in a DH handshake both peers
>>> # must agree on a common set of parameters.
>>> peer_public_key = X448PrivateKey.generate().public_key()
>>> shared_key = private_key.exchange(peer_public_key)
>>> # Perform key derivation.
>>> derived_key = HKDF(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=None,
... info=b'handshake data',
... backend=default_backend()
... ).derive(shared_key)
>>> # For the next handshake we MUST generate another private key.
>>> private_key_2 = X448PrivateKey.generate()
>>> peer_public_key_2 = X448PrivateKey.generate().public_key()
>>> shared_key_2 = private_key_2.exchange(peer_public_key_2)
>>> derived_key_2 = HKDF(
... algorithm=hashes.SHA256(),
... length=32,
... salt=None,
... info=b'handshake data',
... backend=default_backend()
... ).derive(shared_key_2)
Key interfaces
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. class:: X448PrivateKey
.. versionadded:: 2.5
.. classmethod:: generate()
Generate an X448 private key.
:returns: :class:`X448PrivateKey`
.. classmethod:: from_private_bytes(data)
:param data: 56 byte private key.
:type data: :term:`bytes-like`
:returns: :class:`X448PrivateKey`

.. method:: public_key()
:returns: :class:`X448PublicKey`
.. method:: exchange(peer_public_key)
:param X448PublicKey peer_public_key: The public key for the
peer.
:returns bytes: A shared key.
.. method:: private_bytes(encoding, format, encryption_algorithm)
Allows serialization of the key to bytes. Encoding (
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.PEM`,
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.DER`, or
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.Raw`) and
format (
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.PrivateFormat.PKCS8`
or
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.PrivateFormat.Raw`
) are chosen to define the exact serialization.
:param encoding: A value from the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding` enum.
:param format: A value from the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.PrivateFormat`
enum. If the ``encoding`` is
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.Raw`
then ``format`` must be
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.PrivateFormat.Raw`
, otherwise it must be
:attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.PrivateFormat.PKCS8`.
:param encryption_algorithm: An instance of an object conforming to the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.KeySerializationEncryption`
interface.
:return bytes: Serialized key.

Allows serialization of the key to bytes. Encoding (

or

:param encoding: A value from the
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding` enum.
