gost-crypto

Go library for Russian GOST cryptographic standards (GOST R 34.10-2012, GOST R 34.11-2012 Streebog, GOST R 34.12-2015 Kuznechik, GOST R 34.13-2015 MGM), powered by OpenSSL gost-engine. Digital signatures, hashing, encryption, key agreement, and key derivation with zero external Go dependencies.

Why gost-crypto?

• OpenSSL backend — all cryptographic operations run through OpenSSL gost-engine, ensuring constant-time execution and FIPS-level implementation quality
• Complete GOST toolkit — digital signatures, hashing, symmetric encryption, AEAD, key agreement, and key derivation in a single library
• Standard Go interfaces — hash.Hash, cipher.Block, cipher.AEAD — drop-in compatible with Go's crypto ecosystem
• Zero Go dependencies — go.mod has no require directives; only OpenSSL + CGO at build time
• All 8 TC26 curves — both 256-bit and 512-bit elliptic curve parameter sets
• HD key derivation — BIP32-style hierarchical deterministic keys for GOST curves

Features

Requirements

• Go 1.22+
• OpenSSL 3.x with gost-engine (installation guide)
• CGO enabled

Installation

go get github.com/rekurt/gost-crypto

Quick Start

Sign and Verify

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    gostcrypto "github.com/rekurt/gost-crypto"
)

func main() {
    priv, err := gostcrypto.GenerateKey(gostcrypto.CurveTC26_256_A)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    defer priv.Zeroize()

    sig, err := gostcrypto.Sign(priv, []byte("Hello, GOST!"))
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    ok, err := gostcrypto.Verify(priv.PublicKey(), []byte("Hello, GOST!"), sig)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    fmt.Println("valid:", ok) // valid: true
}

VKO Key Agreement

privA, _ := gostcrypto.GenerateKey(gostcrypto.CurveTC26_256_A)
privB, _ := gostcrypto.GenerateKey(gostcrypto.CurveTC26_256_A)
defer privA.Zeroize()
defer privB.Zeroize()

ukm := []byte{0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08}

// Shared secret is symmetric: Agree(A, pubB) == Agree(B, pubA)
secretAB, _ := gostcrypto.Agree(privA, privB.PublicKey(), ukm)
secretBA, _ := gostcrypto.Agree(privB, privA.PublicKey(), ukm)
// bytes.Equal(secretAB, secretBA) == true

Kuznechik Encryption (AEAD)

import "github.com/rekurt/gost-crypto/pkg/gost3413"

aead, _ := gost3413.NewMGMFromKey(key) // 32-byte key

nonce := make([]byte, aead.NonceSize())
rand.Read(nonce)

ciphertext := aead.Seal(nil, nonce, plaintext, additionalData)
