I saw that there was interest in supporting a more recent version of PKCS1 in some discussion in #68. I decided to give it a try. I noticed that someone was already working on OAEP in #126, so I chose PSS. PSS is in version 2.1 and the latest is 2.2. I also looked at 2.2, which adds SHA-224, SHA-512/224, and SHA-512/256. I noticed that SHA-224 is already in
pkcs1
, but SHA3-224 is not, so I added that too. I could not add SHA-512/224 or SHA-512/256 becausehashlib
doesn't have those. There's discussion about adding them though which I reference in the code!Version 2.1 also adds multi-prime RSA, and I would be happy to work on implementing that too! Also, I didn't look closely at #126, but I hope the author there knows that OAEP in version 2.1 is incompatible with version 2.0. Should we support both?
