Class MGF1ParameterSpec

java.lang.Object
java.security.spec.MGF1ParameterSpec
All Implemented Interfaces:
AlgorithmParameterSpec

public class MGF1ParameterSpec
extends Object
implements AlgorithmParameterSpec
This class specifies the set of parameters used with mask generation function MGF1 in OAEP Padding and RSASSA-PSS signature scheme, as defined in the PKCS#1 v2.2 standard.

Its ASN.1 definition in PKCS#1 standard is described below:

 PKCS1MGFAlgorithms    ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
   { OID id-mgf1 PARAMETERS HashAlgorithm },
   ...  -- Allows for future expansion --
 }
 
where
 HashAlgorithm ::= AlgorithmIdentifier {
   {OAEP-PSSDigestAlgorithms}
 }

 OAEP-PSSDigestAlgorithms    ALGORITHM-IDENTIFIER ::= {
   { OID id-sha1       PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha224     PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha256     PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha384     PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha512     PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha512-224 PARAMETERS NULL }|
   { OID id-sha512-256 PARAMETERS NULL },
   ...  -- Allows for future expansion --
 }
