Hi, we are a research group to help developers build secure applications. We designed a cryptographic misuse detector (i.e., CryptoGo) on Go language. We found your great public repository from Github, and several security issues detected by CryptoGo are shown in the following.
Note that the cryptographic algorithms are categorized with two aspects: security strength and security vulnerability based on NIST Special Publication 800-57 and other public publications. Moreover, CryptoGo defined certain rules derived from the APIs of Go cryptographic library and other popular cryptographic misuse detectors. The specific security issues we found are as follows:
(1) Location: crypt.go:149;
Broken rule: R-01: Blowfish is an insecure algorithm;
(2) Location: crypt.go:129;
Broken rule: R-01: CAST5 is an insecure algorithm;
(3) Location: entropy.go:28;
Broken rule: R-01: MD5 is an insecure algorithm;
(4) Location: crypt.go:189;
Broken rule: R-01: TEA is an insecure algorithm;
(5) Location: crypt.go:209;
Broken rule: R-01: XTEA is an insecure algorithm;
(6) Location: crypt.go:109;
Broken rule: R-02: 3TDEA is acceptable but not recommended;
(7) Location: crypt.go:89;
Broken rule: R-02: Twofish is acceptable but not recommended;
(8) Location: crypt.go:169;
Broken rule: R-04: Constant key in AES;
We wish the above security issues could truly help you to build a secure application. If you have any concern or suggestion, please feel free to contact us, we are looking forward to your reply. Thanks.
