Desafio Labsec (SGC)
|
This is a project currently under development. Please submit your sugestions :)
This exercise is designed to evaluate how you can handle C++ programming. You are not required to have experience with cryptography. The code you are about to write uses a cryptographic C++ library maintained by undergraduate students at LabSEC. It is partially documented in Portuguese and should't be hard to use. The exercise is supposed to be easy to start with and challenge you gradually as you progress. There are 6 Milestones to be completed in sequence. Each Milestone requires the previous to work. An evaluation tool is available to get you started. This tool will evaluate the first three (3) milestones. For the remainder of the exercise you are on your own. We recomend that you use this evaluation tool, building your own tests.
IMPORTANT
From previous experiences, we have noticed that most students can't complete all the milestones. You shouldn't worry if you haven't finished the exercise. Submiting your code is more important, since it is the only way that we can evaluate your work.
Please contact us if you need help.
What do we expect from the code you submit?
We recommend any 32its Linux distributions for the exercise. Running on a 64bits OS will require some tweaks described bellow. Windows is not permitted! :)
OpenSSL is an open source project that will provide all cryptografic functions needed to complete this exercise.
Download the latest version of OpenSSL.
If you are running a 32bits OS, run the following commands:
$ ./config shared $ make $ sudo make install
If you are running a 64bits OS, run the following commands:
$ CFLAGS=-fPIC ./config shared $ make $ sudo make install
Check if your installation is working:
$ /user/local/ssl/bin/openssl version OpenSSL 1.0.2c 12 Jun 2015
Since OpenSSL is writen in C and very hard to work with, we have developed an Object Oriented C++ wrapper of OpenSSL. We call it LibCryptoSec! It is currently under development and was written entirely by undergraduate and graduate students. We hope you can contribute someday!
Before installing Libcryptosec, you need to install OpenSSL first. If you haven't done so, please head back to the OpenSSL section.
Download the latest version and check the documentation page.
If you are running a 32bits OS, run the following commands:
$ make $ sudo make install
If you are running a 64bits OS, do the following steps:
Edit Libcryptosec's Makefile:
CC = g++ -fPIC;run:
$ make $ sudo make install
Check if your installation is working:
$ cd tests/ $ make test
Output should be a list of HMAC and Brainpool tests running 100% OK
Error when runing make test? try the following:
If make can't find libcryptosec.so and you are using a 64bit OS:
/usr/lib/libcryptosec.so to /usr/lib64/libcryptosec.so;/usr/lib64.If make can't resolve Libcryptosec's includes (evp.h or any other OpenSSL header):
-I/usr/local/ssl/include to the INCLUDES= .. flag in the test Makefile.check if istallation is working again. If not, contact us.
The installation was tested with Ubuntu 15.04 and Fedora 22 successfully.
To run all tests at once, run:
$ cd evaluation/ $ make evaluate
To run a single milestone, run:
$ cd evaluation/ $ make first $ make second $ make third $ make fourth $ make fifth $ make sixth
The evaluation tool uses Google's C++ Testing Framework. The last 3 Milestones tests are not implemented. The tests ready to run but will FAIL by default. You will have to implement these tests using Google's API.
Start by reading the documentation inside the header files of each Milestone. You will implement your code in the cpp files and use header files if needed. All of the variables available should be used. Don't forget to implement FIleIo class inside the utils folder. Also, the TRACE(x) macro is available to help debug when needed.
