Single-key DES is insecure due to its short key size. ECB mode is not suitable for most applications; see L<des_modes(7)|des_modes(7)>. -=head1 HISTORY - -In OpenSSL 0.9.7, all des_ functions were renamed to DES_ to avoid -clashes with older versions of libdes. Compatibility des_ functions -are provided for a short while, as well as crypt(). -Declarations for these are in <openssl/des_old.h>. There is no DES_ -variant for des_random_seed(). -This will happen to other functions -as well if they are deemed redundant (des_random_seed() just calls -RAND_seed() and is present for backward compatibility only), buggy or -already scheduled for removal. - -des_cbc_cksum(), des_cbc_encrypt(), des_ecb_encrypt(), -des_is_weak_key(), des_key_sched(), des_pcbc_encrypt(), -des_quad_cksum(), des_random_key() and des_string_to_key() -are available in the MIT Kerberos library; -des_check_key_parity(), des_fixup_key_parity() and des_is_weak_key() -are available in newer versions of that library. - -des_set_key_checked() and des_set_key_unchecked() were added in -OpenSSL 0.9.5. - -des_generate_random_block(), des_init_random_number_generator(), -des_new_random_key(), des_set_random_generator_seed() and -des_set_sequence_number() and des_rand_data() are used in newer -versions of Kerberos but are not implemented here. - -des_random_key() generated cryptographically weak random data in -SSLeay and in OpenSSL prior version 0.9.5, as well as in the original -MIT library. - =head1 AUTHOR Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com).
