In 2022 Google Chrome announced they would deprecate and remove U2F support in their browser. Firefox followed suit and removed U2F support in 2023.Please take a look at ourWebAuthn implementation (GitHub mirror).If you still need U2F please reach out to us with the contact details listed onhttps://robur.coop/Contact.

U2F is aFIDO standardfor two-factor authentication using specialized USB or NFC devices, similarto smart cards. Challenge-response authentication with the device using publickey cryptography is supported by various applications, i.e. web browsers andssh.

This package implements the server side of the U2F protocol: requesting andfinalizing both a registration and an authentication via json messages exchangedbetween the browser and the server. The implementation does not keep any state,instead the user of the API needs to persist the state (challenges, keyHandle,public keys, ...). A basic demonstration server is provided (bin/u2f_demo),running atu2f-demo.robur.coop.

API documentation is available online.

opam install u2f will install this library.
