14 // P224EncryptedKeyExchange implements SPAKE2, a variant of Encrypted
15 // Key Exchange. It allows two parties that have a secret common
16 // password to establish a common secure key by exchanging messages
17 // over unsecure channel without disclosing the password.
19 // The password can be low entropy as authenticating with an attacker only
20 // gives the attacker a one-shot password oracle. No other information about
21 // the password is leaked. (However, you must be sure to limit the number of
22 // permitted authentication attempts otherwise they get many one-shot oracles.)
24 // The protocol requires several RTTs (actually two, but you shouldn't assume
25 // that.) To use the object, call GetMessage() and pass that message to the
26 // peer. Get a message from the peer and feed it into ProcessMessage. Then
27 // examine the return value of ProcessMessage:
28 // kResultPending: Another round is required. Call GetMessage and repeat.
29 // kResultFailed: The authentication has failed. You can get a human readable
30 // error message by calling error().
31 // kResultSuccess: The authentication was successful.
33 // In each exchange, each peer always sends a message.
