KMFCryptoOperation - Scoped, Global
The KMFCryptoOperation class provides methods for performing cryptographic operations using a Key Management Framework (KMF) cryptographic module or a Field Encryption encryption module.
To use this API, you must have already created and configured a KMF cryptographic module or a CLE encryption module. The module must have one or more cryptographic specifications and you must create or import its associated key. For details, see Cryptographic modules.
The KMFCryptoOperation object generated using this API represents a cryptographic operation, such as a Symmetric Encryption. Use the KMFCryptoOperations() method to create this object, the builder methods to set properties on the object, and the doOperation() method to execute the operation.
You can use this API in both scoped and global applications. You must always specify the
sn_kmf_ns namespace when calling this API.
KMFCryptoOperation - KMFCryptoOperation(String cryptoModuleName, String operationName)
Creates a KMFCryptoOperation object for the specified module and operation.
This API leverages builder methods. Builder methods update properties on the KMFCryptoOperation object, such as changing the desired output format of the data. Not all builder methods are valid for all operations. The builder methods available for each operation are noted in the parameters table below.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| cryptoModuleName | String | Name of the Key Management Framework (KMF) cryptographic module or Field Encryption encryption module to use. You must create the module before calling this method. For details, see Cryptographic module overview. |
| operationName | String | Name of the operation to perform. Valid values (not case-sensitive):
|
This example instantiates a KMFCryptoOperation object for the module global.sj_cm to perform a Symmetric Encryption operation. You must include the namespace for both global and scoped applications.
var op = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","SYMMETRIC_ENCRYPTION");
This example shows how to specify options to update the default output type and output format.
var op = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","SYMMETRIC_ENCRYPTION")
.withOutputType("STRING").withOutputFormat("FORMATTED");
var cipherText=op.doOperation("hi");
This example shows how to perform an Asymmetric Encryption operation using an Integrated Encryption Scheme (EC-IES). Note that long values, such as signature, have been truncated and replaced with an ellipse for readability.
var op = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","ASYMMETRIC_ENCRYPTION")
.withInputFormat("KMFNONE")
.withOutputType("PAYLOAD");
var cipherText = op.doOperation("hi");
/*
cipherText contains an object similar to this JSON: {
"signature": "pkg…",
"ephemeral_key": "BDi…",
"ciphertext": "afFS…"
}
*/
This example shows how to perform an Asymmetric Decryption operation using EC-IES.
var op = new
sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","ASYMMETRIC_DECRYPTION")
.withAdditionalInput({
"signature": "pkg… ",
"ephemeral_key": "BDi…"
})
.withOutputFormat("KMFNONE");
var clearText = op.doOperation("afFS…");
This example shows how to generate and verify a JWT signature.
// Validating from instance
var moduleName = 'global.jwtimport'; // must have signature generation spec
var header = '{ "alg": "P5512","typ": "JWT"}'; // your header JSON as a string
var payload = '{"sub": "1234567890", "name": "John Doe", "admin": true, "iat": 1516239022)'; // your payload JSON as a string
// SIGN
var api = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation(moduleName, "JWT_SIGN").withAdditionalInput(header);
var token = api.doOperation(payload);
gs.info("sign = " + token);
// VERIFY
api = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCrypto0peration(moduleName, "JWT_VERIFY");
var verifyoutput = api.doOperation(token);
gs.info("verify = " + verifyOutput);
KMFCryptoOperation - doOperation(Object data)
Performs the cryptographic operation defined by the current KMFCryptoOperation object on the supplied data and returns the result.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| data | Object | Required except if the withSysId() builder method has previously been called on the associated KMFCryptoOperation object. Input data on which to perform the cryptographic operation. |
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
Depends on the operation type.
|
Data results after performing the operation specified in the associated KMFCryptoOperation object. |
This example uses the doOperation() to create a MAC.
var op = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","MAC_GENERATION");
var data = "aGk=";
var mac = op.doOperation(data);
KMFCryptoOperation - withAdditionalInput(Object additionalInput)
Sets the additional input needed to perform the cryptographic operation.
For example, during a Message Authentication Code (MAC) verification, use this method to pass in the generated MAC tag. Similarly, during signature verification, use it to pass in the signature. You can also use this method to pass additional data, a KMFEncryptionPayload object, when performing an asymmetric operation with an integrated cipher, such as Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme (EC-IES.)
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| additionalInput | String or Object | Optional, except for Asymmetric Decryption operations when using EC-IES.
Additional input data needed to perform the cryptographic operation specified in the
KMFCryptoOperation object. Supported string formats:
KMFEncryptionPayload object format: |
| additionalInput.ciphertext | String (Base64) | Required for Asymmetric Decryption, optional for all other operations. Valid values:
Available from the Asymmetric Encryption operation when the output type is set to payload. |
| additionalInput.derivation_secret | String (Base64) | Optional, only used for the Asymmetric Encryption or Asymmetric Decryption operations with EC-IES. Shared secret to use during the key derivation process of the integrated scheme. |
| additionalInput.ephemeral_key | String (Base64) | Required for the Asymmetric Decryption operation when using EC-IES, optional
for all other operations. Ephemeral public key to use during the basic agreement
process of the integrated scheme. Available from the Asymmetric Encryption operation when the output type is set to payload. |
| additionalInput.ephemeral_key_format | String | Optional, only used for the Asymmetric Encryption or Asymmetric Decryption
operations with EC-IES. Overrides the format of the public key represented by the
ephemeral_key parameter. Valid values:
|
| additionalInput.signature | String (Base64) | Required for the Asymmetric Decryption operation with EC-IES, optional for all
others. The signature of the ciphertext to validate using the signature verification
process of the integrated scheme. Available from the Asymmetric Encryption operation when the output type is set to payload. |

This example uses withAdditionalInput() to add a string-based signature to the KMFCryptoOperation object.
var signature = "John Doe";
var op = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFCryptoOperation("global.sj_cm","SIGNATURE_VERIFICATION")
.withAdditionalInput(signature);
var value = GlideStringUtil.base64Encode("Text to encode"); // Default input format is KMFBase64
var result = op.doOperation(String(value));
This example uses withAdditionalInput() to add a signature and ephemeral key to the KMFCryptoOperation object. Note that long values, such as those in the doOperation() call and payload description, have been truncated and replaced with an ellipse for readability.
var payload = new sn_kmf_ns.KMFEncryptionPayload();
payload.signature = "pkg...";
payload.ephemeral_key = " BDi...";
payload.ephemeral_key_format = "x962";
