## About

Pure Rust implementation of SSH key file format decoders/encoders as described
in [RFC4251] and [RFC4253] as well as OpenSSH's [PROTOCOL.key] format
specification.

Additionally provides support for SSH signatures as described in
[PROTOCOL.sshsig], OpenSSH certificates as specified in [PROTOCOL.certkeys]
including certificate validation and certificate authority (CA) support,
FIDO/U2F keys as specified in [PROTOCOL.u2f] (and certificates thereof), and
also the `authorized_keys` and `known_hosts` file formats.

Supports a minimal profile which works on heapless `no_std` targets. See
"Supported algorithms" table below for which key formats work on heapless
targets and which algorithms require `alloc`.

When the `ed25519`, `p256`, and/or `rsa` features of this crate are enabled,
provides key generation and certificate signing/verification support for that
respective SSH key algorithm.

## Features

- [x] Constant-time Base64 decoder/encoder using `base64ct`/`pem-rfc7468` crates
- [x] OpenSSH-compatible decoder/encoders for the following formats:
  - [x] OpenSSH public keys
  - [x] OpenSSH private keys (i.e. `BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY`)
  - [x] OpenSSH certificates
  - [x] OpenSSH signatures (a.k.a. "sshsig")
- [x] OpenSSH certificate support
  - [x] OpenSSH certificate validation
  - [x] OpenSSH certificate authority (CA) support i.e. cert builder/signer
- [x] Private key encryption/decryption (`bcrypt-pbkdf` + `aes256-ctr` only)
- [x] Private key generation support: DSA, Ed25519, ECDSA (P-256/P-384/P-521),
      and RSA
- [x] FIDO/U2F key support (`sk-*`) as specified in [PROTOCOL.u2f]
- [x] Fingerprint support
  - [x] "randomart" fingerprint visualizations
- [x] `no_std` support including support for "heapless" (no-`alloc`) targets
- [x] Parsing `authorized_keys` files
- [x] Parsing `known_hosts` files
- [x] `serde` support
- [x] `zeroize` support for private keys

#### TODO

- [ ] FIDO/U2F signature support
- [ ] Legacy (pre-OpenSSH) SSH key format support
  - [ ] PKCS#1 SSH private keys (i.e. RSA-only)
  - [ ] PKCS#8 SSH private keys
  - [ ] [RFC4716] SSH public keys
  - [ ] SEC1 SSH public keys

By default *no SSH signature algorithms are enabled* and you will get an
`Error::AlgorithmUnsupported` error if you try to use them.

Enable the `crypto` feature or the "Feature" for specific algorithms in the
chart above (e.g. `p256`, `rsa`) in order to use cryptographic functionality.

The "Feature" column lists the name of `ssh-key` crate features which can
be enabled to provide full support for the "Keygen", "Sign", and "Verify"
functionality for a particular SSH key algorithm.

## Minimum Supported Rust Version

This crate requires **Rust 1.65** at a minimum.

We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor
version bump.
