Applicability GOST R 34.11-94 defines an algorithm and procedure for the calculation of a hash function for an arbitrary sequence of binary symbols. These algorithms and procedures should be applied in cryptographic methods of data processing and securing, including digital signature procedures employed for data transfer and data storage in computer-aided systems. The hash function, defined in GOST R 34.11-94, is used for digital signature systems based on the asymmetric cryptographic algorithm according to GOST R 34.10-2001 (see section 3).3. Conventions Used in This Document The following notations are used in GOST R 34.11-94: V_all is a set of all finite words in the alphabet V = {0,1}. The words are read from right to left and the alphabet symbols are numbered from right to left (i.e., the rightmost symbol of the word has the number one, the second rightmost symbol has number two, etc.). Vk is a set of all words in alphabet V = {0,1} of length k bits (k=16,64,256). |A| is the length of a word A belonging to V_all. A||B is a concatenation of words A, B belonging to V_all. Its length is |A| + |B|, where the left |A| symbols come from the word A, and the right |B| symbols come from the word B. One can also use the notation A||B = A * B. A^k is a concatenation of k copies of the word A (A belongs to V_all). <N>_k is a word of length k, containing a binary representation of N(mod 2^k) residue, with a non-negative integer N. A^$ is a non-negative integer with A as its binary representation. (xor) is the bitwise modulo 2 addition of the words of the same length. (+)' is the addition according to the rule A (+)' B = <A^$+ B^$>_k, where k = |A| = |B|. M is a binary sequence to be hashed, M belongs to V_all. M is a message in digital signature systems. h is a hash function that maps the sequence M belonging to V_all onto the word h(M) belonging to V_256. E(k,A) is a result of the encryption of the word A using key K with the encryption algorithm according to [GOST28147] in the electronic codebook (ECB) mode (K belongs to V256, A belongs to V64). h0 is an initial hash value. e := g is the assignment of the value g to the parameter e. ^ is the power operator. i = 1..8 is an interval with i being all the values from 1 to 8. hUZ is the S-boxes described in [GOST28147].4. General Statements A hash function h is the mapping h : V_all -> V256, depending on the parameter (which is the initial hash value H, H is a word from V256). To define the hash function, it is necessary to have: - a calculation algorithm for the step-by-step hash function chi : V256 x V256 -> V256 - a description of an iterative procedure for calculating the hash value h A hash function h depends on two parameters, h0 and hUZ.5. Step-by-Step Hash Function A calculation algorithm for the step-by-step hash function contains three parts, which successively do: - key generation, here keys are 256-bit words; - an encryption transformation, that is encryption of 64-bit subwords of word H using keys K[i], (i = 1, 2, 3, 4) with the algorithm according to [GOST28147] in ECB mode; and - a mixing transformation for the result of the encryption.5.1 Key Generation Consider X = (b[256], b[255], ..., b[1]) belongs to V256. Let: X = x[4]||x[3]||x[2]||x[1] = eta[16]||[eta15]||...||eta[1] = xi[32]||xi[31]||...||xi[1], where x[i] = (b[i*64],...,b[(i-1)*64+1]) belongs to V64, i = 1..4, eta[j] = (b[j*16],...,b[(j-1)*16+1]) belongs to V16, j = 1..16, xi[k] = (b[k*8],..., b[(k-1)*8+1]) belongs to V8, k = 1..32. Yet, another notation: A(X) = (x[1](xor)x[2])||x[4]||x[3]||x[2]. The transformation P : V256 -> V256 maps the word xi32||...||xi1 onto the word xi[phi(32)] || ... || xi[phi(1)], where phi(i + 1 + 4 ( k - 1) ) = 8i + k , i = 0..3, k = 1..8. For the key generation, one should use the following initial data: - words H, M belonging to V256, - parameters: words C[i] (i = 2, 3, 4), with values: C[2] = C[4] = 0^256; C[3] = 1^8||0^8||1^16||0^24||1^16||0^8||(0^8||1^8)^2||1^8||0^8 ||(0^8||1^8)^4||(1^8||0^8 )^4. The following algorithm is used for the key calculation: 1. Assign values: i := 1, U := H , V := M. 2. Calculate: W = U (xor) V , K[i] = P(W). 3. Assign: i := i + 1. 4. Verify condition: i = 5. If it is true, go to step 7. If not, go to step 5. 5. Calculate: U := A(U)(xor)C[i], V := A(A(V)), W := U(xor)V, K[i] = P(W). 6. Go to step 3. 7. End.5.2. Encryption Transformation At this stage, 64-bit subwords of the word H are encrypted using keys K[i] (i = 1, 2, 3, 4). For the encryption transformation, one should use the following initial data: H = h[4]||h[3]||h[2]||h[1], where h[i] belongs to V64, i = 1,2,3,4, and a key set is K[1], K[2], K[3], K[4]. The encryption algorithm is applied and the following words are obtained: s[i] = E(K[i],h[i]), where: i = 1,2,3,4 As a result of the stage, the following sequence is formed: S = s[4]||s[3]||s[2]||s[1].5.3. Mixing Transformation At this stage, the obtained sequence is mixed using a shift register. The initial data includes words H, M belonging to V256 and a word S belonging to V256 . Let a mapping PSI(X) : V256(2) -> V256(2) transform the word: eta[16]||eta[15]||...||eta[1], eta[i] belongs to V16, i = 1..16 into the word: eta[1](xor)eta[2](xor)eta[3](xor)eta[4](xor)eta[13](xor)eta[16] ||eta[16]||...||eta[2]. Then, the value of the step-by-step hash function value is the word: chi(M, H) = PSI^61(H(xor)PSI(M(xor)PSI^12(S))), where PSI^i(X) is the transformation PSI applied i times to X.6. The Calculation Procedure for a Hash Function The calculation procedure for a hash function h is assumed to be applied to a sequence M belonging to V_all. Its parameter is an initial hash value h0, which is an arbitrarily fixed word from V256. The calculation procedure for the function h uses the following quantities at each step of iteration: _M_ belonging to V_all - a part of the sequence M, which was not hashed at previous iterations; H belonging to V256 - the current hash value; SIGMA belonging to V256 - the current check sum value; L belonging to V256 - the length of the partial sequence M processed at the previous iteration step. The calculation algorithm for function h consists of the following steps: Step 1. Assign initial values to current quantities: 1.1 _M_ := M. 1.2 H := h0. 1.3 SIGMA := 0^256. 1.4 L := 0^256. 1.5 Go to step 2. Step 2. 2.1 Verify the condition |_M_|>256. If it is true, go to step 3. Else, make the following calculations: 2.2 L := <L^$ + |M|>_256 2.3 M' := 0^(256 -|M|)||M 2.4 SIGMA := SIGMA (+)' M' 2.5 H := chi (M', H) 2.6 H := chi (L, H) 2.7 H := chi (SIGMA, H) 2.8 End. Step 3. 3.1 Calculate a subword M_s belonging to V256 of the word _M_ (_M_ = M_p||M_s). Then make the following calculations: 3.2 H := chi (M_s, H) 3.3 L := <L^$ + 256>_256 3.4 SIGMA := SIGMA (+)' M[s] 3.5 _M_ = M_p 3.6 Go to step 2. The quantity H obtained at step 2.7 is the value of the hash function h(M).7. Test Examples (Informative) It is recommended to use the values for substitution units pi[1], pi[2],..., pi[8] and the initial hash value H described in this appendix for the GOST R 34.11-94 test examples only.7.1. Usage of the Algorithm GOST 28147-89 The algorithm GOST 28147-89 [GOST28147] in ECB mode is used as an encryption transformation in the following examples. The following values of the substitution units pi[1], pi[2],..., pi[8] have been chosen: 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 D 4 6 7 5 E 4 1 F B B C D 8 B A 2 D 4 A 7 A 1 4 9 3 0 1 0 1 1 D C 2 4 5 3 7 5 0 A 6 D 5 7 F 2 F 8 3 D 8 6 A 5 1 D 9 4 F 0 7 4 9 D 8 F 2 A E 8 9 0 3 4 E E 2 6 9 2 A 6 A 4 F 3 B 10 3 E 8 9 6 C 8 1 11 E 7 5 E C 7 1 C 12 6 6 9 0 B 6 0 7 13 B 8 C 3 2 0 7 F 14 8 2 F B 5 9 5 5 15 C C E 2 3 B 9 3 The hexadecimal value of pi[j](i) is given in a column number j, j = 1..8, and in a row number i, i = 0..15.7.2. Representation of Vectors We will put down binary symbol sequences as hexadecimal digits strings, where each digit corresponds to four signs of its binary representation.7.3 Examples of the Hash Value Calculation A zero vector, for example, can be taken as an initial hash value: h0 = 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 000000007.3.1.

Security Considerations This entire document is about security considerations. Current cryptographic resistance of GOST R 34.11-94 hash algorithm is estimated as 2^128 operations of computations of step hash functions. (There is a known method to reduce this estimate to 2^105 operations, but it demands padding the colliding message with 1024 random bit blocks each of 256-bit length; thus, it cannot be used in any practical implementation).9.
