Classic McEliece

  • Algorithm type: Key encapsulation mechanism.
  • Main cryptographic assumption: Niederreiter's dual version of McEliece's public key encryption using binary Goppa codes.
  • Principal submitters: Daniel J. Bernstein, Tung Chou, Tanja Lange, Ingo von Maurich, Rafael Misoczki, Ruben Niederhagen, Edoardo Persichetti, Christiane Peters, Peter Schwabe, Nicolas Sendrier, Jakub Szefer, Wen Wang.
  • Authors' website: https://classic.mceliece.org
  • Specification version: SUPERCOP-20191221.
  • Primary Source:
    • Source: 33bceb17eb
    • Implementation license (SPDX-Identifier): Public domain
  • Ancestors of primary source:
    • SUPERCOP-20191221 "vec" and "avx" implementations

Advisories

  • The implementation of the Classic-McEliece-8192128 parameter set is known to fail memory leak testing on x86-64.
