                 Test Cases for HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA-1

Status of This Memo

   This memo provides information for the Internet community.  This memo
   does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.  Distribution of

Abstract

   This document provides two sets of test cases for HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-
   SHA-1, respectively. HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA-1 are two constructs of
   the HMAC [HMAC] message authentication function using the MD5 [MD5]
   hash function and the SHA-1 [SHA] hash function. Both constructs are
   used by IPSEC [OG,CG] and other protocols to authenticate messages.
   The test cases and results provided in this document are meant to be
   used as a conformance test for HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA-1
   implementations.

1. Introduction

   The general method for constructing a HMAC message authentication
   function using a particular hash function is described in section 2
   of [HMAC]. We will not repeat the description here. Section 5 of
   [HMAC] also discusses truncating the output of HMAC; the rule is that
   we should keep the more significant bits (the bits in the left,
   assuming a network byte order (big-endian)).

   In sections 2 and 3 we provide test cases for HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA-
   1, respectively. Each case includes the key, the data, and the
   result.  The values of keys and data are either hexadecimal numbers
   (prefixed by "0x") or ASCII character strings in double quotes. If a
   value is an ASCII character string, then the HMAC computation for the
   corresponding test case DOES NOT include the trailing null character
   ('\0') in the string.

RFC 2202         Test Cases for HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA-1   September 1997


   The C source code of the functions used to generate HMAC-SHA-1
   results is listed in the Appendix. Note that these functions are
   meant to be simple and easy to understand; they are not optimized in
   any way. The C source code for computing HMAC-MD5 can be found in
   [MD5]; or you can do a simple modification to HMAC-SHA-1 code to get
   HMAC-MD5 code, as explained in the Appendix.

   The test cases in this document are cross-verified by three
   independent implementations, one from NIST and two from IBM Research.
   One IBM implementation uses optimized code that is very different
   from the code in the Appendix. An implemenation that concurs with the
   results provided in this document should be interoperable with other
   similar implemenations.  We do not claim that such an implementation
   is absolutely correct with respect to the HMAC definition in [HMAC].

   This docuemnt raises no security issues. Discussion on the strength

Appendix

   This appendix contains the C reference code which implements HMAC-
   SHA-1 using an existing SHA-1 library.  It assumes that the SHA-1
   library has similar API's as those of the MD5 code described in RFC
   1321.  The code for HMAC-MD5 is similar, just replace the strings
   "SHA" and "sha" with "MD5" and "md5". HMAC-MD5 code is also listed in
   RFC 2104.
