Cryptopals Challenges in Rust

This repository contains solutions to the Cryptopals challenges implemented in Rust programming language. The challenges cover a range of cryptography topics and aim to strengthen your understanding of the subject. I personally think it is a good way to increase your understaning of RUST programming language

WARNING: This is an academic proof-of-concept prototype, and in particular has not received careful code review. This implementation is NOT ready for production use.

Contents

  • Challenge 1: Basic Crypto
    • Contains 8 challenges that focus on basic cryptography concepts such as single-byte XOR cipher, fixed XOR, and hexadecimal decoding.
  • Challenge 2: Block Crypto
    • Contains 8 challenges that deal with cryptography at the block level, including fixed-nonce CBC encryption, detection of ECB mode, and more.
  • Challenge 3: Block & Stream Crypto
    • Contains 8 challenges that combine both block and stream cryptography, such as CTR encryption mode, password reset tokens, and more.
  • Challenge 4: Stream Crypto and Randomness
    • Contains 8 challenges that focus on stream cryptography and random number generation, including breaking random access read/write AES CTR and more.
  • Challenge 5: Diffie-Hellman and Friends
    • Contains 8 challenges that explore Diffie-Hellman and its variants, including breaking and fixing DH with parameters of your own choice, and more.
