It is infeasible for an // attacker to generate an authenticator for a message without the key. However, a // key must only be used for a single message. Authenticating two different // messages with the same key allows an attacker to forge authenticators for other // messages with the same key. // // Poly1305 was originally coupled with AES in order to make Poly1305-AES. AES was // used with a fixed key in order to generate one-time keys from an nonce. // However, in this package AES isn't used and the one-time key is specified // directly. // // Deprecated: Poly1305 as implemented by this package is a cryptographic // building block that is not safe for general purpose use. // For encryption, use the full ChaCha20-Poly1305 construction implemented by // golang.org/x/crypto/chacha20poly1305. For authentication, use a general // purpose MAC such as HMAC implemented by crypto/hmac. package poly1305 // import "golang.org/x/crypto/poly1305" import "golang.org/x/crypto/internal/poly1305" // TagSize is the size, in bytes, of a poly1305 authenticator. // // For use with golang.org/x/crypto/chacha20poly1305, chacha20poly1305.Overhead // can be used instead. const TagSize = 16 // Sum generates an authenticator for msg using a one-time key and puts the // 16-byte result into out.
