From 08f5e0df46ce1ad617bcde1fd5542545397630b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Hans Dedecker <dedeckeh@gmail.com>
Date: Sat, 24 Oct 2020 21:13:30 +0200
Subject: Revert "Disallow use of DES encryption functions in new programs."
This reverts commit b10a0accee709a5efff2fadf0b0bbb79ff0ad759.
ppp still uses the encrypt functions from the libc while musl libc also
provides them.

+@cindex FIPS 46-3
+The Data Encryption Standard is described in the US Government Federal
+Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 46-3 published by the National
+Institute of Standards and Technology. The DES has been very thoroughly
+analyzed since it was developed in the late 1970s, and no new
+significant flaws have been found.
+
+However, the DES uses only a 56-bit key (plus 8 parity bits), and a
+machine has been built in 1998 which can search through all possible
+keys in about 6 days, which cost about US$200000; faster searches would
+be possible with more money. This makes simple DES insecure for most
+purposes, and NIST no longer permits new US government systems
+to use simple DES.
+
+For serious encryption functionality, it is recommended that one of the
+many free encryption libraries be used instead of these routines.
+
+The DES is a reversible operation which takes a 64-bit block and a
+64-bit key, and produces another 64-bit block. Usually the bits are
+numbered so that the most-significant bit, the first bit, of each block
+is numbered 1.
+
+Under that numbering, every 8th bit of the key (the 8th, 16th, and so
+on) is not used by the encryption algorithm itself. But the key must
+have odd parity; that is, out of bits 1 through 8, and 9 through 16, and
+so on, there must be an odd number of `1' bits, and this completely
+specifies the unused bits.

+@c The static buffer stores the key, making it fundamentally
+@c thread-unsafe. The locking issues are only in the initialization
+@c path; cancelling the initialization will leave the lock held, it
+@c would otherwise repeat the initialization on the next call.
+
+The @code{setkey} function sets an internal data structure to be an
+expanded form of @var{key}. @var{key} is specified as an array of 64
+bits each stored in a @code{char}, the first bit is @code{key[0]} and
+the 64th bit is @code{key[63]}. The @var{key} should have the correct
+parity.

+
+The @code{encrypt} function encrypts @var{block} if
+@var{edflag} is 0, otherwise it decrypts @var{block}, using a key
+previously set by @code{setkey}. The result is
+placed in @var{block}.

+
+The @var{blocks} and the @var{key} are stored packed in 8-bit bytes, so

+@code{key[0]} and the 63rd bit of the key is stored as the
+least-significant bit of @code{key[7]}. The @var{key} should have the
+correct parity.
+
+@var{len} is the number of bytes in @var{blocks}. It should be a

+@var{len} is limited to a maximum of @code{DES_MAXDATA} bytes.
+
+The result of the encryption replaces the input in @var{blocks}.

+The function @code{cbc_crypt} encrypts or decrypts one or more blocks
+using DES in Cipher Block Chaining mode.
+
+For encryption in CBC mode, each block is exclusive-ored with @var{ivec}
+before being encrypted, then @var{ivec} is replaced with the result of
+the encryption, then the next block is processed. Decryption is the
+reverse of this process.
+
+This has the advantage that blocks which are the same before being
+encrypted are very unlikely to be the same after being encrypted, making
+it much harder to detect patterns in the data.
+
+Usually, @var{ivec} is set to 8 random bytes before encryption starts.
+Then the 8 random bytes are transmitted along with the encrypted data
+(without themselves being encrypted), and passed back in as @var{ivec}
+for decryption. Another possibility is to set @var{ivec} to 8 zeroes
+initially, and have the first block encrypted consist of 8 random
+bytes.
+
+Otherwise, all the parameters are similar to those for @code{ecb_crypt}.

+The @code{memfrob} function converts an array of data to something
+unrecognizable and back again. It is not encryption in its usual sense
+since it is easy for someone to convert the encrypted data back to clear
+text. The transformation is analogous to Usenet's ``Rot13'' encryption
+method for obscuring offensive jokes from sensitive eyes and such.
+Unlike Rot13, @code{memfrob} works on arbitrary binary data, not just
+text.
@cindex Rot13
-The @code{memfrob} function reversibly obfuscates an array of binary
-data. This is not true encryption; the obfuscated data still bears a
-clear relationship to the original, and no secret key is required to
-undo the obfuscation. It is analogous to the ``Rot13'' cipher used on
-Usenet for obscuring offensive jokes, spoilers for works of fiction,
-and so on, but it can be applied to arbitrary binary data.
-
-Programs that need true encryption---a transformation that completely
-obscures the original and cannot be reversed without knowledge of a
-secret key---should use a dedicated cryptography library, such as
-@uref{https://www.gnu.org/software/libgcrypt/,,libgcrypt}.
