<h1 id="NAME">NAME</h1>
<p>RSA_blinding_on, RSA_blinding_off - protect the RSA operation from timing attacks</p>
<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>
<pre><code> #include <openssl/rsa.h>
int RSA_blinding_on(RSA *rsa, BN_CTX *ctx);
void RSA_blinding_off(RSA *rsa);</code></pre>
<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>RSA is vulnerable to timing attacks. In a setup where attackers can measure the time of RSA decryption or signature operations, blinding must be used to protect the RSA operation from that attack.</p>
<p>RSA_blinding_on() turns blinding on for key <b>rsa</b> and generates a random blinding factor. <b>ctx</b> is <b>NULL</b> or a preallocated and initialized <b>BN_CTX</b>.</p>
<p>RSA_blinding_off() turns blinding off and frees the memory used for the blinding factor.</p>
<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>
<p>RSA_blinding_on() returns 1 on success, and 0 if an error occurred.</p>
<p>RSA_blinding_off() returns no value.</p>
