Introduction The Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) is a variant of Schnorr's signature system with (possibly twisted) Edwards curves. EdDSA needs to be instantiated with certain parameters, and this document describes some recommended variants. To facilitate adoption of EdDSA in the Internet community, this document describes the signature scheme in an implementation-oriented way and provides sample code and test vectors. The advantages with EdDSA are as follows: 1. EdDSA provides high performance on a variety of platforms; 2. The use of a unique random number for each signature is not required; 3. It is more resilient to side-channel attacks; 4. EdDSA uses small public keys (32 or 57 bytes) and signatures (64 or 114 bytes) for Ed25519 and Ed448, respectively; 5. The formulas are "complete", i.e., they are valid for all points on the curve, with no exceptions. This obviates the need for EdDSA to perform expensive point validation on untrusted public values; and 6. EdDSA provides collision resilience, meaning that hash-function collisions do not break this system (only holds for PureEdDSA). The original EdDSA paper [EDDSA] and the generalized version described in "EdDSA for more curves" [EDDSA2] provide further background.RFC 7748 [RFC7748] discusses specific curves, including Curve25519 [CURVE25519] and Ed448-Goldilocks [ED448]. Ed25519 is intended to operate at around the 128-bit security level and Ed448 at around the 224-bit security level. A sufficiently large quantum computer would be able to break both. Reasonable projections of the abilities of classical computers conclude that Ed25519 is perfectly safe. Ed448 is provided for those applications with relaxed performance requirements and where there is a desire to hedge against analytical attacks on elliptic curves.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 3]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20172. Notation and Conventions The following notation is used throughout the document: p Denotes the prime number defining the underlying field GF(p) Finite field with p elements x^y x multiplied by itself y times B Generator of the group or subgroup of interest [n]X X added to itself n times h[i] The i'th octet of octet string h_i The i'th bit of h a || b (bit-)string a concatenated with (bit-)string b a <= b a is less than or equal to b a >= b a is greater than or equal to b i+j Sum of i and j i*j Multiplication of i and j i-j Subtraction of j from i i/j Division of i by j i x j Cartesian product of i and j (u,v) Elliptic curve point with x-coordinate u and y-coordinate v SHAKE256(x, y) The y first octets of SHAKE256 [FIPS202] output for input x OCTET(x) The octet with value x OLEN(x) The number of octets in string xJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 4]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 dom2(x, y) The blank octet string when signing or verifying Ed25519. Otherwise, the octet string: "SigEd25519 no Ed25519 collisions" || octet(x) || octet(OLEN(y)) || y, where x is in range 0-255 and y is an octet string of at most 255 octets. "SigEd25519 no Ed25519 collisions" is in ASCII (32 octets). dom4(x, y) The octet string "SigEd448" || octet(x) || octet(OLEN(y)) || y, where x is in range 0-255 and y is an octet string of at most 255 octets. "SigEd448" is in ASCII (8 octets). Parentheses (i.e., '(' and ')') are used to group expressions, in order to avoid having the description depend on a binding order between operators. Bit strings are converted to octet strings by taking bits from left to right, packing those from the least significant bit of each octet to the most significant bit, and moving to the next octet when each octet fills up. The conversion from octet string to bit string is the reverse of this process; for example, the 16-bit bit string b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 b8 b9 b10 b11 b12 b13 b14 b15 is converted into two octets x0 and x1 (in this order) as x0 = b7*128+b6*64+b5*32+b4*16+b3*8+b2*4+b1*2+b0 x1 = b15*128+b14*64+b13*32+b12*16+b11*8+b10*4+b9*2+b8 Little-endian encoding into bits places bits from left to right and from least significant to most significant. If combined with bit-string-to-octet-string conversion defined above, this results in little-endian encoding into octets (if length is not a multiple of 8, the most significant bits of the last octet remain unused). The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].3. EdDSA Algorithm EdDSA is a digital signature system with 11 parameters. The generic EdDSA digital signature system with its 11 input parameters is not intended to be implemented directly. Choosing parameters is critical for secure and efficient operation. Instead, you would implement a particular parameter choice for EdDSA (such asJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 5]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 Ed25519 or Ed448), sometimes slightly generalized to achieve code reuse to cover Ed25519 and Ed448. Therefore, a precise explanation of the generic EdDSA is thus not particularly useful for implementers. For background and completeness, a succinct description of the generic EdDSA algorithm is given here. The definition of some parameters, such as n and c, may help to explain some steps of the algorithm that are not intuitive. This description closely follows [EDDSA2]. EdDSA has 11 parameters: 1. An odd prime power p. EdDSA uses an elliptic curve over the finite field GF(p). 2. An integer b with 2^(b-1) > p. EdDSA public keys have exactly b bits, and EdDSA signatures have exactly 2*b bits. b is recommended to be a multiple of 8, so public key and signature lengths are an integral number of octets. 3. A (b-1)-bit encoding of elements of the finite field GF(p). 4. A cryptographic hash function H producing 2*b-bit output. Conservative hash functions (i.e., hash functions where it is infeasible to create collisions) are recommended and do not have much impact on the total cost of EdDSA. 5. An integer c that is 2 or 3. Secret EdDSA scalars are multiples of 2^c. The integer c is the base-2 logarithm of the so-called cofactor. 6. An integer n with c <= n < b. Secret EdDSA scalars have exactly n + 1 bits, with the top bit (the 2^n position) always set and the bottom c bits always cleared. 7. A non-square element d of GF(p). The usual recommendation is to take it as the value nearest to zero that gives an acceptable curve. 8. A non-zero square element a of GF(p). The usual recommendation for best performance is a = -1 if p mod 4 = 1, and a = 1 if p mod 4 = 3. 9. An element B != (0,1) of the set E = { (x,y) is a member of GF(p) x GF(p) such that a * x^2 + y^2 = 1 + d * x^2 * y^2 }.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 6]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 10. An odd prime L such that [L]B = 0 and 2^c * L = #E. The number #E (the number of points on the curve) is part of the standard data provided for an elliptic curve E, or it can be computed as cofactor * order. 11. A "prehash" function PH. PureEdDSA means EdDSA where PH is the identity function, i.e., PH(M) = M. HashEdDSA means EdDSA where PH generates a short output, no matter how long the message is; for example, PH(M) = SHA-512(M). Points on the curve form a group under addition, (x3, y3) = (x1, y1) + (x2, y2), with the formulas x1 * y2 + x2 * y1 y1 * y2 - a * x1 * x2 x3 = --------------------------, y3 = --------------------------- 1 + d * x1 * x2 * y1 * y2 1 - d * x1 * x2 * y1 * y2 The neutral element in the group is (0,1). Unlike many other curves used for cryptographic applications, these formulas are "complete"; they are valid for all points on the curve, with no exceptions. In particular, the denominators are non-zero for all input points. There are more efficient formulas, which are still complete, that use homogeneous coordinates to avoid the expensive modulo p inversions. See [Faster-ECC] and [Edwards-revisited].3.1. Encoding An integer 0 < S < L - 1 is encoded in little-endian form as a b-bit string ENC(S). An element (x,y) of E is encoded as a b-bit string called ENC(x,y), which is the (b-1)-bit encoding of y concatenated with one bit that is 1 if x is negative and 0 if x is not negative. The encoding of GF(p) is used to define "negative" elements of GF(p): specifically, x is negative if the (b-1)-bit encoding of x is lexicographically larger than the (b-1)-bit encoding of -x.3.2. Keys An EdDSA private key is a b-bit string k. Let the hash H(k) = (h_0, h_1, ..., h_(2b-1)) determine an integer s, which is 2^n plus the sum of m = 2^i * h_i for all integer i, c <= i < n. Let s determine the multiple A = [s]B. The EdDSA public key is ENC(A). The bits h_b, ..., h_(2b-1) are used below during signing.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 7]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20173.3. Sign The EdDSA signature of a message M under a private key k is defined as the PureEdDSA signature of PH(M). In other words, EdDSA simply uses PureEdDSA to sign PH(M). The PureEdDSA signature of a message M under a private key k is the 2*b-bit string ENC(R) || ENC(S). R and S are derived as follows. First define r = H(h_b || ... || h_(2b-1) || M) interpreting 2*b-bit strings in little-endian form as integers in {0, 1, ..., 2^(2*b) - 1}. Let R = [r]B and S = (r + H(ENC(R) || ENC(A) || PH(M)) * s) mod L. The s used here is from the previous section.3.4. Verify To verify a PureEdDSA signature ENC(R) || ENC(S) on a message M under a public key ENC(A), proceed as follows. Parse the inputs so that A and R are elements of E, and S is a member of the set {0, 1, ..., L-1}. Compute h = H(ENC(R) || ENC(A) || M), and check the group equation [2^c * S] B = 2^c * R + [2^c * h] A in E. The signature is rejected if parsing fails (including S being out of range) or if the group equation does not hold. EdDSA verification for a message M is defined as PureEdDSA verification for PH(M).4. PureEdDSA, HashEdDSA, and Naming One of the parameters of the EdDSA algorithm is the "prehash" function. This may be the identity function, resulting in an algorithm called PureEdDSA, or a collision-resistant hash function such as SHA-512, resulting in an algorithm called HashEdDSA. Choosing which variant to use depends on which property is deemed to be more important between 1) collision resilience and 2) a single- pass interface for creating signatures. The collision resilience property means EdDSA is secure even if it is feasible to compute collisions for the hash function. The single-pass interface property means that only one pass over the input message is required to create a signature. PureEdDSA requires two passes over the input. Many existing APIs, protocols, and environments assume digital signature algorithms only need one pass over the input and may have API or bandwidth concerns supporting anything else. Note that single-pass verification is not possible with most uses of signatures, no matter which signature algorithm is chosen. This is because most of the time, one can't process the message until the signature is validated, which needs a pass on the entire message.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 8]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 This document specifies parameters resulting in the HashEdDSA variants Ed25519ph and Ed448ph and the PureEdDSA variants Ed25519 and Ed448.5. EdDSA Instances This section instantiates the general EdDSA algorithm for the edwards25519 and edwards448 curves, each for the PureEdDSA and HashEdDSA variants (plus a contextualized extension of the Ed25519 scheme). Thus, five different parameter sets are described.5.1. Ed25519ph, Ed25519ctx, and Ed25519 Ed25519 is EdDSA instantiated with: +-----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | Parameter | Value | +-----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | p | p of edwards25519 in [RFC7748] (i.e., 2^255 - 19) | | b | 256 | | encoding | 255-bit little-endian encoding of {0, 1, ..., p-1} | | of GF(p) | | | H(x) | SHA-512(dom2(phflag,context)||x) [RFC6234] | | c | base 2 logarithm of cofactor of edwards25519 in | | | [RFC7748] (i.e., 3) | | n | 254 | | d | d of edwards25519 in [RFC7748] (i.e., -121665/121666 | | | = 370957059346694393431380835087545651895421138798432 | | | 19016388785533085940283555) | | a | -1 | | B | (X(P),Y(P)) of edwards25519 in [RFC7748] (i.e., (1511 | | | 22213495354007725011514095885315114540126930418572060 | | | 46113283949847762202, 4631683569492647816942839400347 | | | 5163141307993866256225615783033603165251855960)) | | L | order of edwards25519 in [RFC7748] (i.e., | | | 2^252+27742317777372353535851937790883648493). | | PH(x) | x (i.e., the identity function) | +-----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ Table 1: Parameters of Ed25519 For Ed25519, dom2(f,c) is the empty string. The phflag value is irrelevant. The context (if present at all) MUST be empty. This causes the scheme to be one and the same with the Ed25519 scheme published earlier. For Ed25519ctx, phflag=0. The context input SHOULD NOT be empty.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 9]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 For Ed25519ph, phflag=1 and PH is SHA512 instead. That is, the input is hashed using SHA-512 before signing with Ed25519. Value of context is set by the signer and verifier (maximum of 255 octets; the default is empty string, except for Ed25519, which can't have context) and has to match octet by octet for verification to be successful. The curve used is equivalent to Curve25519 [CURVE25519], under a change of coordinates, which means that the difficulty of the discrete logarithm problem is the same as for Curve25519.5.1.1. Modular Arithmetic For advice on how to implement arithmetic modulo p = 2^255 - 19 efficiently and securely, see Curve25519 [CURVE25519]. For inversion modulo p, it is recommended to use the identity x^-1 = x^(p-2) (mod p). Inverting zero should never happen, as it would require invalid input, which would have been detected before, or would be a calculation error. For point decoding or "decompression", square roots modulo p are needed. They can be computed using the Tonelli-Shanks algorithm or the special case for p = 5 (mod 8). To find a square root of a, first compute the candidate root x = a^((p+3)/8) (mod p). Then there are three cases: x^2 = a (mod p). Then x is a square root. x^2 = -a (mod p). Then 2^((p-1)/4) * x is a square root. a is not a square modulo p.5.1.2. Encoding All values are coded as octet strings, and integers are coded using little-endian convention, i.e., a 32-octet string h h[0],...h[31] represents the integer h[0] + 2^8 * h[1] + ... + 2^248 * h[31]. A curve point (x,y), with coordinates in the range 0 <= x,y < p, is coded as follows. First, encode the y-coordinate as a little-endian string of 32 octets. The most significant bit of the final octet is always zero. To form the encoding of the point, copy the least significant bit of the x-coordinate to the most significant bit of the final octet.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 10]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20175.1.3. Decoding Decoding a point, given as a 32-octet string, is a little more complicated. 1. First, interpret the string as an integer in little-endian representation. Bit 255 of this number is the least significant bit of the x-coordinate and denote this value x_0. The y-coordinate is recovered simply by clearing this bit. If the resulting value is >= p, decoding fails. 2. To recover the x-coordinate, the curve equation implies x^2 = (y^2 - 1) / (d y^2 + 1) (mod p). The denominator is always non-zero mod p. Let u = y^2 - 1 and v = d y^2 + 1. To compute the square root of (u/v), the first step is to compute the candidate root x = (u/v)^((p+3)/8). This can be done with the following trick, using a single modular powering for both the inversion of v and the square root: (p+3)/8 3 (p-5)/8 x = (u/v) = u v (u v^7) (mod p) 3. Again, there are three cases: 1. If v x^2 = u (mod p), x is a square root. 2. If v x^2 = -u (mod p), set x <-- x * 2^((p-1)/4), which is a square root. 3. Otherwise, no square root exists for modulo p, and decoding fails. 4. Finally, use the x_0 bit to select the right square root. If x = 0, and x_0 = 1, decoding fails. Otherwise, if x_0 != x mod 2, set x <-- p - x. Return the decoded point (x,y).5.1.4. Point Addition For point addition, the following method is recommended. A point (x,y) is represented in extended homogeneous coordinates (X, Y, Z, T), with x = X/Z, y = Y/Z, x * y = T/Z. The neutral point is (0,1), or equivalently in extended homogeneous coordinates (0, Z, Z, 0) for any non-zero Z.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 11]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 The following formulas for adding two points, (x3,y3) = (x1,y1)+(x2,y2), on twisted Edwards curves with a=-1, square a, and non-square d are described in Section 3.1 of [Edwards-revisited] and in [EFD-TWISTED-ADD]. They are complete, i.e., they work for any pair of valid input points. A = (Y1-X1)*(Y2-X2) B = (Y1+X1)*(Y2+X2) C = T1*2*d*T2 D = Z1*2*Z2 E = B-A F = D-C G = D+C H = B+A X3 = E*F Y3 = G*H T3 = E*H Z3 = F*G For point doubling, (x3,y3) = (x1,y1)+(x1,y1), one could just substitute equal points in the above (because of completeness, such substitution is valid) and observe that four multiplications turn into squares. However, using the formulas described in Section 3.2 of [Edwards-revisited] and in [EFD-TWISTED-DBL] saves a few smaller operations. A = X1^2 B = Y1^2 C = 2*Z1^2 H = A+B E = H-(X1+Y1)^2 G = A-B F = C+G X3 = E*F Y3 = G*H T3 = E*H Z3 = F*GJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 12]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20175.1.5. Key Generation The private key is 32 octets (256 bits, corresponding to b) of cryptographically secure random data. See [RFC4086] for a discussion about randomness. The 32-byte public key is generated by the following steps. 1. Hash the 32-byte private key using SHA-512, storing the digest in a 64-octet large buffer, denoted h. Only the lower 32 bytes are used for generating the public key. 2. Prune the buffer: The lowest three bits of the first octet are cleared, the highest bit of the last octet is cleared, and the second highest bit of the last octet is set. 3. Interpret the buffer as the little-endian integer, forming a secret scalar s. Perform a fixed-base scalar multiplication [s]B. 4. The public key A is the encoding of the point [s]B. First, encode the y-coordinate (in the range 0 <= y < p) as a little- endian string of 32 octets. The most significant bit of the final octet is always zero. To form the encoding of the point [s]B, copy the least significant bit of the x coordinate to the most significant bit of the final octet. The result is the public key.5.1.6. Sign The inputs to the signing procedure is the private key, a 32-octet string, and a message M of arbitrary size. For Ed25519ctx and Ed25519ph, there is additionally a context C of at most 255 octets and a flag F, 0 for Ed25519ctx and 1 for Ed25519ph. 1. Hash the private key, 32 octets, using SHA-512. Let h denote the resulting digest. Construct the secret scalar s from the first half of the digest, and the corresponding public key A, as described in the previous section. Let prefix denote the second half of the hash digest, h[32],...,h[63]. 2. Compute SHA-512(dom2(F, C) || prefix || PH(M)), where M is the message to be signed. Interpret the 64-octet digest as a little- endian integer r. 3. Compute the point [r]B. For efficiency, do this by first reducing r modulo L, the group order of B. Let the string R be the encoding of this point.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 13]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 4. Compute SHA512(dom2(F, C) || R || A || PH(M)), and interpret the 64-octet digest as a little-endian integer k. 5. Compute S = (r + k * s) mod L. For efficiency, again reduce k modulo L first. 6. Form the signature of the concatenation of R (32 octets) and the little-endian encoding of S (32 octets; the three most significant bits of the final octet are always zero).5.1.7. Verify 1. To verify a signature on a message M using public key A, with F being 0 for Ed25519ctx, 1 for Ed25519ph, and if Ed25519ctx or Ed25519ph is being used, C being the context, first split the signature into two 32-octet halves. Decode the first half as a point R, and the second half as an integer S, in the range 0 <= s < L. Decode the public key A as point A'. If any of the decodings fail (including S being out of range), the signature is invalid. 2. Compute SHA512(dom2(F, C) || R || A || PH(M)), and interpret the 64-octet digest as a little-endian integer k. 3. Check the group equation [8][S]B = [8]R + [8][k]A'. It's sufficient, but not required, to instead check [S]B = R + [k]A'.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 14]

Value of context is set by signer and verifier (maximum of 255 octets; the default is empty string) and has to match octet by octet for verification to be successful. The curve is equivalent to Ed448-Goldilocks under change of the basepoint, which preserves difficulty of the discrete logarithm.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 15]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20175.2.1. Modular Arithmetic For advice on how to implement arithmetic modulo p = 2^448 - 2^224 - 1 efficiently and securely, see [ED448]. For inversion modulo p, it is recommended to use the identity x^-1 = x^(p-2) (mod p). Inverting zero should never happen, as it would require invalid input, which would have been detected before, or would be a calculation error. For point decoding or "decompression", square roots modulo p are needed. They can be computed by first computing candidate root x = a ^ (p+1)/4 (mod p) and then checking if x^2 = a. If it is, then x is the square root of a; if it isn't, then a does not have a square root.5.2.2. Encoding All values are coded as octet strings, and integers are coded using little-endian convention, i.e., a 57-octet string h h[0],...h[56] represents the integer h[0] + 2^8 * h[1] + ... + 2^448 * h[56]. A curve point (x,y), with coordinates in the range 0 <= x,y < p, is coded as follows. First, encode the y-coordinate as a little-endian string of 57 octets. The final octet is always zero. To form the encoding of the point, copy the least significant bit of the x-coordinate to the most significant bit of the final octet.5.2.3. Decoding Decoding a point, given as a 57-octet string, is a little more complicated. 1. First, interpret the string as an integer in little-endian representation. Bit 455 of this number is the least significant bit of the x-coordinate, and denote this value x_0. The y-coordinate is recovered simply by clearing this bit. If the resulting value is >= p, decoding fails. 2. To recover the x-coordinate, the curve equation implies x^2 = (y^2 - 1) / (d y^2 - 1) (mod p). The denominator is always non-zero mod p. Let u = y^2 - 1 and v = d y^2 - 1. To compute the square root of (u/v), the first step is to compute the candidate root x = (u/v)^((p+1)/4). This can be done using the following trick, to use a single modular powering for both the inversion of v and the square root: (p+1)/4 3 (p-3)/4 x = (u/v) = u v (u^5 v^3) (mod p)Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 16]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 3. If v * x^2 = u, the recovered x-coordinate is x. Otherwise, no square root exists, and the decoding fails. 4. Finally, use the x_0 bit to select the right square root. If x = 0, and x_0 = 1, decoding fails. Otherwise, if x_0 != x mod 2, set x <-- p - x. Return the decoded point (x,y).5.2.4. Point Addition For point addition, the following method is recommended. A point (x,y) is represented in projective coordinates (X, Y, Z), with x = X/Z, y = Y/Z. The neutral point is (0,1), or equivalently in projective coordinates (0, Z, Z) for any non-zero Z. The following formulas for adding two points, (x3,y3) = (x1,y1)+(x2,y2) on untwisted Edwards curve (i.e., a=1) with non- square d, are described in Section 4 of [Faster-ECC] and in [EFD-ADD]. They are complete, i.e., they work for any pair of valid input points. A = Z1*Z2 B = A^2 C = X1*X2 D = Y1*Y2 E = d*C*D F = B-E G = B+E H = (X1+Y1)*(X2+Y2) X3 = A*F*(H-C-D) Y3 = A*G*(D-C) Z3 = F*GJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 17]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 Again, similar to the other curve, doubling formulas can be obtained by substituting equal points, turning four multiplications into squares. However, this is not even nearly optimal; the following formulas described in Section 4 of [Faster-ECC] and in [EFD-DBL] save multiple multiplications. B = (X1+Y1)^2 C = X1^2 D = Y1^2 E = C+D H = Z1^2 J = E-2*H X3 = (B-E)*J Y3 = E*(C-D) Z3 = E*J5.2.5. Key Generation The private key is 57 octets (456 bits, corresponding to b) of cryptographically secure random data. See [RFC4086] for a discussion about randomness. The 57-byte public key is generated by the following steps: 1. Hash the 57-byte private key using SHAKE256(x, 114), storing the digest in a 114-octet large buffer, denoted h. Only the lower 57 bytes are used for generating the public key. 2. Prune the buffer: The two least significant bits of the first octet are cleared, all eight bits the last octet are cleared, and the highest bit of the second to last octet is set. 3. Interpret the buffer as the little-endian integer, forming a secret scalar s. Perform a known-base-point scalar multiplication [s]B. 4. The public key A is the encoding of the point [s]B. First encode the y-coordinate (in the range 0 <= y < p) as a little-endian string of 57 octets. The most significant bit of the final octet is always zero. To form the encoding of the point [s]B, copy the least significant bit of the x coordinate to the most significant bit of the final octet. The result is the public key.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 18]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20175.2.6. Sign The inputs to the signing procedure is the private key, a 57-octet string, a flag F, which is 0 for Ed448, 1 for Ed448ph, context C of at most 255 octets, and a message M of arbitrary size. 1. Hash the private key, 57 octets, using SHAKE256(x, 114). Let h denote the resulting digest. Construct the secret scalar s from the first half of the digest, and the corresponding public key A, as described in the previous section. Let prefix denote the second half of the hash digest, h[57],...,h[113]. 2. Compute SHAKE256(dom4(F, C) || prefix || PH(M), 114), where M is the message to be signed, F is 1 for Ed448ph, 0 for Ed448, and C is the context to use. Interpret the 114-octet digest as a little-endian integer r. 3. Compute the point [r]B. For efficiency, do this by first reducing r modulo L, the group order of B. Let the string R be the encoding of this point. 4. Compute SHAKE256(dom4(F, C) || R || A || PH(M), 114), and interpret the 114-octet digest as a little-endian integer k. 5. Compute S = (r + k * s) mod L. For efficiency, again reduce k modulo L first. 6. Form the signature of the concatenation of R (57 octets) and the little-endian encoding of S (57 octets; the ten most significant bits of the final octets are always zero).5.2.7. Verify 1. To verify a signature on a message M using context C and public key A, with F being 0 for Ed448 and 1 for Ed448ph, first split the signature into two 57-octet halves. Decode the first half as a point R, and the second half as an integer S, in the range 0 <= s < L. Decode the public key A as point A'. If any of the decodings fail (including S being out of range), the signature is invalid. 2. Compute SHAKE256(dom4(F, C) || R || A || PH(M), 114), and interpret the 114-octet digest as a little-endian integer k. 3. Check the group equation [4][S]B = [4]R + [4][k]A'. It's sufficient, but not required, to instead check [S]B = R + [k]A'.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 19]

RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20178. Security Considerations8.1. Side-Channel Leaks For implementations performing signatures, secrecy of the private key is fundamental. It is possible to protect against some side-channel attacks by ensuring that the implementation executes exactly the same sequence of instructions and performs exactly the same memory accesses, for any value of the private key. To make an implementation side-channel silent in this way, the modulo p arithmetic must not use any data-dependent branches, e.g., related to carry propagation. Side-channel silent point addition is straightforward, thanks to the unified formulas. Scalar multiplication, multiplying a point by an integer, needs some additional effort to implement in a side-channel silent manner. One simple approach is to implement a side-channel silent conditional assignment, and use it together with the binary algorithm to examine one bit of the integer at a time. Compared to other signature schemes, avoiding data-dependent branches is easier due to side-channel silent modulo p arithmetic being easier (with recommended curves) and having complete addition formulas instead of having a number of special cases. Note that the example implementations in this document do not attempt to be side-channel silent.8.2. Randomness Considerations EdDSA signatures are deterministic. This protects against attacks arising from signing with bad randomness; the effects of which can, depending on the algorithm, range up to full private key compromise. It can be surprisingly hard to ensure good-quality random numbers, and there have been numerous security failures relating to this. Obviously, private key generation requires randomness, but due to the fact that the private key is hashed before use, a few missing bits of entropy doesn't constitute a disaster. The basic signature verification is also deterministic. However, some speedups by verifying multiple signatures at once do require random numbers.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 40]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 20178.3. Use of Contexts Contexts can be used to separate uses of the protocol between different protocols (which is very hard to reliably do otherwise) and between different uses within the same protocol. However, the following SHOULD be kept in mind when using this facility: The context SHOULD be a constant string specified by the protocol using it. It SHOULD NOT incorporate variable elements from the message itself. Contexts SHOULD NOT be used opportunistically, as that kind of use is very error prone. If contexts are used, one SHOULD require all signature schemes available for use in that purpose support contexts. Contexts are an extra input, which percolate out of APIs; as such, even if the signature scheme supports contexts, those may not be available for use. This problem is compounded by the fact that many times the application is not invoking the signing and verification functions directly but via some other protocol.8.4. Signature Malleability Some systems assume signatures are not malleable: that is, given a valid signature for some message under some key, the attacker can't produce another valid signature for the same message and key. Ed25519 and Ed448 signatures are not malleable due to the verification check that decoded S is smaller than l. Without this check, one can add a multiple of l into a scalar part and still pass signature verification, resulting in malleable signatures.8.5. Choice of Signature Primitive Ed25519 and Ed25519ph have a nominal strength of 128 bits, whereas Ed448 and Ed448ph have the strength of 224. While the lower strength is sufficient for the foreseeable future, the higher level brings some defense against possible future cryptographic advances. Both are demolished by quantum computers just about the same. The Ed25519ph and Ed448ph variants are prehashed. This is mainly useful for interoperation with legacy APIs, since in most of the cases, either the amount of data signed is not large or the protocol is in the position to do digesting in ways better than just prehashing (e.g., tree hashing or splitting the data). TheJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 41]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 prehashing also makes the functions greatly more vulnerable to weaknesses in hash functions used. These variants SHOULD NOT be used. Ed25519ctx and Ed448 have contexts. However, this is balanced by the problems noted inSection 8.3 about contexts. On the implementation front, Ed25519 is widely implemented and has many high-quality implementations. The others have much worse support. In summary, if a high 128-bit security level is enough, use of Ed25519 is RECOMMENDED; otherwise, Ed448 is RECOMMENDED.8.6. Mixing Different Prehashes The schemes described in this document are designed to be resistant to mixing prehashes. That is, it is infeasible to find a message that verifies using the same signature under another scheme, even if the original signed message was chosen. Thus, one can use the same key pair for Ed25519, Ed25519ctx, and Ed25519ph and correspondingly with Ed448 and Ed448ph. The "SigEd25519 no Ed25519 collisions" constant is chosen to be a textual string such that it does not decode as a point. Because the inner hash input in the Ed25519 signature always starts with a valid point, there is no way trivial collision can be constructed. In the case of seed hash, trivial collisions are so unlikely, even with an attacker choosing all inputs, that it is much more probable that something else goes catastrophically wrong.8.7. Signing Large Amounts of Data at Once Avoid signing large amounts of data at once (where "large" depends on the expected verifier). In particular, unless the underlying protocol does not require it, the receiver MUST buffer the entire message (or enough information to reconstruct it, e.g., compressed or encrypted version) to be verified. This is needed because most of the time, it is unsafe to process unverified data, and verifying the signature makes a pass through the whole message, causing ultimately at least two passes through. As an API consideration, this means that any Initialize Update Finalize (IFU) verification interface is prone to misuse.Josefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 42]
RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017 It is a bad idea to modify Ed25519 or Ed448 signing to be able to create valid Ed25519/Ed448 signatures using an IUF interface with only constant buffering. Pretty much any error in such would cause catastrophic security failure.8.8. Multiplication by Cofactor in Verification The given verification formulas for both Ed25519 and Ed448 multiply points by the cofactor. While this is not strictly necessary for security (in fact, any signature that meets the non-multiplied equation will satisfy the multiplied one), in some applications it is undesirable for implementations to disagree about the exact set of valid signatures. Such disagreements could open up, e.g., fingerprinting attacks.8.9. Use of SHAKE256 as a Hash Function Ed448 uses SHAKE256 as a hash function, even if SHAKE256 is specifically defined not to be a hash function. The first potentially troublesome property is that shorter outputs are prefixes of longer ones. This is acceptable because output lengths are fixed. The second potentially troublesome property is failing to meet standard hash security notions (especially with preimages). However, the estimated 256-bit security level against collisions and preimages is sufficient to pair with a 224-bit level elliptic curve.9. References9.1.

RFC 8032 EdDSA: Ed25519 and Ed448 January 2017Acknowledgements EdDSA and Ed25519 were initially described in a paper due to Daniel J. Bernstein, Niels Duif, Tanja Lange, Peter Schwabe, and Bo-Yin Yang. The Ed448 curve is due to Mike Hamburg. An earlier draft version of this document was coauthored by Niels Moeller. Feedback on this document was received from Werner Koch, Damien Miller, Bob Bradley, Franck Rondepierre, Alexey Melnikov, Kenny Paterson, and Robert Edmonds. The Ed25519 test vectors were double checked by Bob Bradley using three separate implementations (one based on TweetNaCl and two different implementations based on code from SUPERCOP).Authors' Addresses Simon Josefsson SJD AB Email: simon@josefsson.org URI:http://josefsson.org/ Ilari Liusvaara Independent Email: ilariliusvaara@welho.comJosefsson & Liusvaara Informational [Page 60]
