BlaKE12: Blazing-fast KEccak on 12 rounds

Overview

KangarooTwelve is a fast and secure arbitrary output-length hash function which performs much better than hash and extendable output functions specified on FIPS 202 ( more @ https://dx.doi.org/10.6028/NIST.FIPS.202 ). KangarooTwelve ( aka K12 or BlaKE12 - see more @ https://blake12.org ) is built on top of round-reduced keccak-p[1600, 12] permutation. To be more specific KangarooTwelve can be implemented on top of TurboSHAKE - which is a family of extendable output functions, recently specified on https://ia.cr/2023/342. The sponge mode of KangarooTwelve uses 256 -bit wide capacity i.e. it can use TurboSHAKE128 as underlying construction. K12 possesses a built-in parallel hashing mode for long ( >=8KB ) messages which can efficiently be exploited by multiple-cores or SIMD instructions. Another important gain of K12 is that its parallel design doesn't impact performance when hashing short ( <8KB ) messages. KangarooTwelve is specified on https://keccak.team/files/KangarooTwelve.pdf.

Here I'm developing/ maintaining a Rust library which implements KangarooTwelve specification s.t. it implements non-incremental absorption API with arbitrary times squeeze support. In coming weeks, I plan to support incremental hashing API i.e. one can construct a K12 hasher object for absorbing message bytes arbitrary many times, then finalize using customization string, before squeezing bytes out of sponge state. See below for example, showing usage of K12 XOF API.

Prerequisites

Rust stable toolchain; see https://rustup.rs for installation guide.

# When developing this library, I was using
$ rustc --version
rustc 1.68.0 (2c8cc3432 2023-03-06)

Testing

For ensuring functional correctness of KangarooTwelve XOF's implementation, I use test vectors from section 4 ( on page 9 ) and Appendix A ( on page 17 ) of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-irtf-cfrg-kangarootwelve. Issue following command to run test cases.

cargo test --lib # by default it's single-threaded
cargo test --lib --features multi_threaded

Benchmarking

Issue following command for benchmarking KangarooTwelve extendable output function's (XOF) implementation, for varying input sizes and fixed squeezed output size ( = 32 -bytes ).

RUSTFLAGS="-C opt-level=3 -C target-cpu=native" cargo bench # single-threaded absorption
RUSTFLAGS="-C opt-level=3 -C target-cpu=native" cargo bench --features multi_threaded # multi-threaded absorption

Usage

Getting started with using KangarooTwelve extendable output function API is pretty easy

  1. Add kangarootwelve as project dependency in your Cargo.toml file
[dependencies]
# either
kangarootwelve = { git = "https://github.com/itzmeanjan/kangarootwelve" }
# or
kangarootwelve = "0.1.1"
# or if interested in using multi-threaded K12 absorption for long messages
kangarootwelve = { version = "0.1.1", features = "multi_threaded" }
  1. Right now KangarooTwelve offers only non-incremental absorption API, so absorb message and customization string into sponge state using hash() function, which returns an XOF object, holding sponge in its finalized state.
use kangarootwelve::KangarooTwelve;
use rand::{thread_rng, RngCore};

fn main() {
  const MLEN: usize = 64;
  const CSTRLEN: usize = 1;
  const DLEN: usize = 32;

  let mut msg = vec![0u8; MLEN];
  let mut cstr = vec![0u8; CSTRLEN]; // you can keep it empty
  let mut dig = vec![0u8; DLEN];

  let mut rng = thread_rng();
  rng.fill_bytes(&mut msg);
  cstr[0] = 0xff;

  let mut hasher = KangarooTwelve::hash(&msg, &cstr);
  // ...
}
  1. Sponge is ready to be squeezed i.e. now you can use returned XOF object for squeezing arbitrary number of bytes arbitrary number of times.
hasher.squeeze(&mut dig[..DLEN / 2]);
hasher.squeeze(&mut dig[DLEN / 2..]);

I maintain following example, demonstrating usage of KangarooTwelve eXtendable Output Function (XOF).

cargo run --release --example k12

Message              = 03959c2ffc95ac27dbf150fa1bbd4eebeaf531cf5bfd93680a197453350260ca86d78ba9376c8bf55350a7b695f473c486853d955de5eef456a7bc14d22316c5
Customization String = ff
Digest               = 1ab580fbc34d1e49d4c6b1b34b8e9d6b25e0ee60185559e3c7384e5c15629781
