Description

Random number generation method, system and equipment based on SM4 counter mode

Technical Field

The embodiment of the disclosure relates to the technical field of data processing, in particular to a random number generation method, a random number generation system and random number generation equipment based on an SM4 counter mode.

Background

Recently, new infrastructures such as 6G, mobile internet, big data and cloud computing are rapidly developed, and more application scenarios require cryptographic algorithms to guarantee confidentiality, integrity and authentification of transmitted data. The pseudo-random number generator is used as a bottom-layer component for guaranteeing the safety of the cryptographic algorithm, and the unpredictability of the output of the cryptographic algorithm is guaranteed. Random numbers play an increasingly important role in many interactive negotiation scenarios, such as key generation, key exchange protocols, zero knowledge proof, block chaining, secure multi-party computation, and the like.

The true random number generator takes a random entropy source as input and the output bit sequence is random like a random coin throw. In order to ensure that pseudo random numbers are indistinguishable from true random numbers, an important feature of pseudorandom number generators is randomness and unpredictability. Randomness means that bits of a random number are independent from each other, and each bit is subject to uniform distribution; unpredictability means that a preceding segment and a succeeding segment cannot be deduced from a known sequence segment. A pseudo-random number generator typically takes a random value as a seed and produces a sequence of bits using a deterministic algorithm that can replace a true random entropy source to perform the function of generating random numbers if the output sequence is indistinguishable from the true random sequence. The seed is important for a pseudorandom number generator, and once the attacker acquires the seed, it gets the information of all subsequent random numbers.

Therefore, a random number generation method based on the SM4 counter mode with high safety is needed.

In specific implementation, the SM4 algorithm is the first commercial block cipher standard published by the domestic official in 2006-2 month, and is a cipher algorithm recommended to be used by the security standard of the wireless local area network in china. The packet length and the key length are 128 bits, and an unbalanced Feistel structure is adopted, so that the encryption and decryption speed is high, the performance is high, and the like. The random number generator used in the patent is a random number generator based on an SM4 counter mode and independently designed for a domestic system, a domestic device and a domestic chip.

The Electronic Cipher Book (ECB) mode and the cipher text block chaining (CBC) mode are two working modes of the block cipher, the electronic cipher book mode has the characteristics of simplicity in operation and easiness in implementation, and meanwhile due to the independence of the blocks, parallel processing is facilitated, and error propagation can be well prevented. The cipher text block linking mode links the encryption processes of all the blocks together, so that the cipher text of a certain block does not depend on the plain text of the block but depends on all the plain text blocks before (including) the block, and meanwhile, the operation of initial vector randomization is used in the encryption process, meanwhile, the correlation between the plain text blocks and the cipher text blocks is covered, and the safety is improved.

After the initial seed material is obtained, performing seed material derivation, wherein the seed material after derivation is used for updating the internal state of the random number generator, and the step of executing the derivation function can be as follows:

filling an initial seed material, wherein S = the byte number of the initial seed material | | | | derived seed material | | |0x80, the byte numbers of the initial seed material and the derived seed material are both 32 bit numbers, and the symbol | | | represents the connection of a bit string. When the bit length of the padded S is not a multiple of 128, continuing to pad 0x00 until the bit length of the padded S is a multiple of 128;

Encrypting the IVS in the CBC mode of the SM4 under the action of the key, and outputting a 128-bit MAC value as a key K in the ECB mode of the SM 4; the alternative initial vector IV is a 0-bit string of 0x00000001 concatenated with 96 bits, also concatenating IV with S, i.e.: IVSS = IV | | S. Under the effect of the key(s),the IVSS is encrypted in the CBC mode of SM4, and the 128-bit MAC value is output as encrypted data X in the ECB mode of SM 4. Encrypting X in ECB mode of SM4 under the action of key K, and outputting 128-bit value

And then encrypted

step 4.2, under the action of the current state Key value, the encryption V +2 in the SM4 ECB mode obtains a 128-bit output result output2;

In specific implementation, after 256-bit derived seed materials seed are obtained, the derived seed materials are used for updating the internal states Key and V of the random number generator based on the current internal state, and the state updating function is executed as follows:

firstly, under the action of a current state Key value, encrypting V +1 in an SM4 ECB mode to obtain a 128-bit output result output1;

secondly, under the action of the current state Key value, the encryption V +2 in the ECB mode of the SM4 obtains a 128-bit output result output2;

the step 5 specifically includes:

step 5.2, setting the target seed material as a 0-bit string with 256 bits;

step 5.3, under the action of the Key value of the current internal state, encrypting V +1 of the current internal state in the ECB mode of the SM4 to obtain 128-bit output result output;

In specific implementation, after the initialization of the random number generator is completed, the random number generator can output random numbers, the random number generator returns random numbers with required given length based on the current internal state, the random number output each time is 128 bits at most, the internal state of the random number generator is updated while the random numbers are output, and the execution steps of the random number output are as follows:

and judging whether the reseed counter exceeds a reseed interval or not, and if so, executing reseed operation, specifically, updating the state based on the current internal state. The execution steps are as follows:

firstly, 256 bits of initial seed materials are obtained from an entropy source;

deriving the initial seed material to obtain 256 bit derived seed materials, wherein the deriving step of the seed material deriving process is the same as the deriving function executing step of the initializing process;

and finally, updating the states of the derivative seed material and the current internal state Key and V to obtain the internal state of the new random number generator, wherein the state updating process is the same as the state updating function execution step of the initialization process.

If the interval is not exceeded, executing the next step, and setting the seed material as a0 bit string with 256 bits;

under the action of a current internal state Key value, encrypting V +1 of the current internal state in an SM4 ECB mode to obtain a 128-bit output result output;

and updating the state of the seed material and the current internal state Key and V to obtain a new internal state Key and a new internal state V of the random number generator, and simultaneously recording the number of times of outputting the random number according to the value of the reseeding counter plus 1.

Since the state is updated every time the random number is output, it is difficult to infer the output of the random number in the next state from the output of the current random number without knowing the internal state, and the output of the random number reaches at least 128 bits of entropy.

In the random number generation method based on the SM4 counter mode provided in this embodiment, through five steps of initializing the random number generator based on the SM4 counter mode, acquiring an entropy source seed, deriving a seed based on the SM4, updating a state of the random number generator, and outputting a random number, the security of the bottom layer of the cryptographic algorithm is improved.
