The ristretto255 and decaf448 Groups

Abstract

This memo specifies two prime-order groups, ristretto255 and decaf448, suitable for safely implementing higher-level and complex cryptographic protocols. The ristretto255 group can be implemented using Curve25519, allowing existing Curve25519 implementations to be reused and extended to provide a prime-order group. Likewise, the decaf448 group can be implemented using edwards448.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

Decaf [Decaf] is a technique for constructing prime-order groups with non-malleable encodings from non-prime-order elliptic curves. Ristretto extends this technique to support cofactor-8 curves such as Curve25519 [RFC7748]. In particular, this allows an existing Curve25519 library to provide a prime-order group with only a thin abstraction layer.

Edwards curves provide a number of implementation benefits for cryptography, such as complete addition formulas with no exceptional points and formulas among the fastest known for curve operations. However, the group of points on the curve is not of prime order, i.e., it has a cofactor larger than 1. This abstraction mismatch is usually handled by means of ad-hoc protocol tweaks (such as multiplying by the cofactor in an appropriate place), or not at all.

Even for simple protocols such as signatures, these tweaks can cause subtle issues. For instance, Ed25519 implementations may have different validation behavior between batched and singleton verification, and at least as specified in [RFC8032], the set of valid signatures is not defined by the standard.

For more complex protocols, careful analysis is required as the original security proofs may no longer apply, and the tweaks for one protocol may have disastrous effects when applied to another (for instance, the octuple-spend vulnerability in [MoneroVuln]).

Decaf and Ristretto fix this abstraction mismatch in one place for all protocols, providing an abstraction to protocol implementors that matches the abstraction commonly assumed in protocol specifications, while still allowing the use of high-performance curve implementations internally. The abstraction layer imposes minor overhead, and only in the encoding and decoding phases.

While Ristretto is a general method, and can be used in conjunction with any Edwards curve with cofactor 4 or 8, this document specifies the ristretto255 group, which can be implemented using Curve25519, and the decaf448 group, which can be implemented using edwards448.

There are other elliptic curves that can be used internally to implement ristretto255 or decaf448, and those implementations would be interoperable with a Curve25519- or edwards448-based one, but those constructions are out-of-scope for this document.

The Ristretto construction is described and justified in detail at [RistrettoGroup].

2. Notation and Conventions Used In This Document

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

Readers are cautioned that the term "Curve25519" has varying interpretations in the literature, and that the canonical meaning of the term has shifted over time. Originally it referred to a specific Diffie-Hellman key exchange mechanism. Over time, use shifted, and "Curve25519" has been used to refer to either the abstract underlying curve, or its concrete representation in Montgomery form, or the specific Diffie-Hellman mechanism. This document uses the term "Curve25519" to refer to the abstract underlying curve, as recommended in [Naming]. The abstract Edwards form of the curve we refer to here as "Curve25519" is in [RFC7748] referred to as "edwards25519" and its isogenous Montgomery form is referred to as "curve25519".

Elliptic curve points in this document are represented in extended Edwards coordinates in the (x, y, z, t) format [Twisted], also called extended homogeneous coordinates in Section 5.1.4 of [RFC8032]. Field elements are values modulo p, the Curve25519 prime 2^255 - 19 or the edwards448 prime 2^448 - 2^224 - 1, as specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of [RFC7748], respectively. All formulas specify field operations unless otherwise noted.

The | symbol represents a constant-time logical OR.

The notation array[A:B] means the elements of array from A to B-1. That is, it is exclusive of B. Arrays are indexed starting from 0.

A byte is an 8-bit entity (also known as "octet") and a byte string is an ordered sequence of bytes. A N-byte string is a byte string of N bytes length.

Element encodings are presented as hex encoded byte strings with whitespace added for readability.

2.1. Negative field elements

As in [RFC8032], given a field element e, define IS_NEGATIVE(e) as TRUE if the least non-negative integer representing e is odd, and FALSE if it is even. This SHOULD be implemented in constant time.

2.2. Constant time operations

We assume that the field element implementation supports the following operations, which SHOULD be implemented in constant time:

  • CT_EQ(u, v): return TRUE if u = v, FALSE otherwise.

  • CT_SELECT(v IF cond ELSE u): return v if cond is TRUE, else return u.

  • CT_ABS(u): return -u if u is negative, else return u.

Note that CT_ABS MAY be implemented as:

CT_SELECT(-u IF IS_NEGATIVE(u) ELSE u)

3. The group abstraction

Ristretto and Decaf implement an abstract prime-order group interface that exposes only the behavior that is useful to higher-level protocols, without leaking curve-related details and pitfalls.

The only operations exposed by each abstract group are decoding, encoding, equality, a one-way map, addition, negation, and the derived subtraction and (multi-)scalar multiplication.

Decoding is a function from byte strings to abstract elements with built-in validation, so that only the canonical encodings of valid elements are accepted. The built-in validation avoids the need for explicit invalid curve checks.

Encoding is a function from abstract elements to byte strings so that all equivalent representations of the same element are encoded as identical byte strings. Decoding the output of the encoding function always succeeds and returns an equivalent element to the encoding input.

The equality check reports whether two representations of an abstract element are equivalent.

The one-way map is a function from uniformly distributed byte strings of a fixed length to uniformly distributed abstract elements. This map is suitable for hash-to-group operations and to select random elements. The map is not invertible, but also not pre-image resistant, meaning an attacker can find a valid input for a given output.

Addition is the group operation. The group has an identity element and prime order. Adding an element to itself as many times as the order of the group returns the identity element. Adding the identity element to any element returns that element unchanged. Negation returns an element that added to the negation input returns the identity element. Subtraction is the addition of a negated element, and scalar multiplication is the repeated addition of an element.

4. ristretto255

ristretto255 is an instantiation of the abstract prime-order group interface defined in Section 3. This document describes how to implement the ristretto255 prime-order group using Curve25519 points as internal representations.

A "ristretto255 group element" is the abstract element of the prime order group. An "element encoding" is the unique reversible encoding of a group element. An "internal representation" is a point on the curve used to implement ristretto255. Each group element can have multiple equivalent internal representations.

Encoding, decoding, equality, and one-way map are defined in Section 4.3. Element addition, subtraction, negation, and scalar multiplication are implemented by applying the corresponding operations directly to the internal representation.

The group order is the same as the order of the Curve25519 prime-order subgroup:

l = 2^252 + 27742317777372353535851937790883648493

Since ristretto255 is a prime-order group, every element except the identity is a generator, but for interoperability a canonical generator is selected, which can be internally represented by the Curve25519 basepoint, enabling reuse of existing precomputation for scalar multiplication. This is its encoding:

e2f2ae0a 6abc4e71 a884a961 c500515f 58e30b6a a582dd8d b6a65945 e08d2d76

Implementations MUST NOT expose either the internal representation or its field implementation and MUST NOT expose any operations defined on the internal representations unless specified in this document.

4.1. Internal constants

This document references the following constant field element values. Implementations MUST NOT expose them to their API consumers.

  • D = 37095705934669439343138083508754565189542113879843219016388785533085940283555

    • This is the Edwards d parameter for Curve25519, as specified in Section 4.1 of [RFC7748].

  • SQRT_M1 = 19681161376707505956807079304988542015446066515923890162744021073123829784752

  • SQRT_AD_MINUS_ONE = 25063068953384623474111414158702152701244531502492656460079210482610430750235

  • INVSQRT_A_MINUS_D = 54469307008909316920995813868745141605393597292927456921205312896311721017578

  • ONE_MINUS_D_SQ = 1159843021668779879193775521855586647937357759715417654439879720876111806838

4.2. Square root of a ratio of field elements

The following function is defined on field elements, and is used to implement other ristretto255 functions. Implementations MUST NOT expose it to their API consumers.

On input field elements u and v, the function SQRT_RATIO_M1(u, v) returns:

  • (TRUE, +sqrt(u/v)) if u and v are non-zero, and u/v is square;

  • (TRUE, zero) if u is zero;

  • (FALSE, zero) if v is zero and u is non-zero;

  • (FALSE, +sqrt(SQRT_M1*(u/v))) if u and v are non-zero, and u/v is non-square (so SQRT_M1*(u/v) is square),

where +sqrt(x) indicates the non-negative square root of x.

The computation is similar to Section 5.1.3 of [RFC8032], with the difference that if the input is non-square, the function returns a result with a defined relationship to the inputs. This result is used for efficient implementation of the one-way map functionality. The function can be refactored from an existing Ed25519 implementation.

SQRT_RATIO_M1(u, v) is defined as follows:

v3 = v^2  * v
v7 = v3^2 * v
r = (u * v3) * (u * v7)^((p-5)/8) // Note: (p - 5) / 8 is an integer.
check = v * r^2

correct_sign_sqrt   = CT_EQ(check,          u)
flipped_sign_sqrt   = CT_EQ(check,         -u)
flipped_sign_sqrt_i = CT_EQ(check, -u*SQRT_M1)

r_prime = SQRT_M1 * r
r = CT_SELECT(r_prime IF flipped_sign_sqrt | flipped_sign_sqrt_i ELSE r)

// Choose the nonnegative square root.
r = CT_ABS(r)

was_square = correct_sign_sqrt | flipped_sign_sqrt

return (was_square, r)

4.3. External ristretto255 functions

4.3.1. Decode

All elements are encoded as a 32-byte string. Decoding proceeds as follows:

  1. First, interpret the string as an integer s in little-endian representation. If the length of the string is not 32 bytes, or if the resulting value is >= p, decoding fails.

    • Note: unlike [RFC7748] field element decoding, the most significant bit is not masked, and non-canonical values are rejected. The test vectors in Appendix A.2 exercise these edge cases.

  2. If IS_NEGATIVE(s) returns TRUE, decoding fails.

  3. Process s as follows:

ss = s^2
u1 = 1 - ss
u2 = 1 + ss
u2_sqr = u2^2

v = -(D * u1^2) - u2_sqr

(was_square, invsqrt) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(1, v * u2_sqr)

den_x = invsqrt * u2
den_y = invsqrt * den_x * v

x = CT_ABS(2 * s * den_x)
y = u1 * den_y
t = x * y
  1. If was_square is FALSE, or IS_NEGATIVE(t) returns TRUE, or y = 0, decoding fails. Otherwise, return the group element represented by the internal representation (x, y, 1, t).

4.3.2. Encode

A group element with internal representation (x0, y0, z0, t0) is encoded as follows:

  1. Process the internal representation into a field element s as follows:

u1 = (z0 + y0) * (z0 - y0)
u2 = x0 * y0

// Ignore was_square since this is always square.
(_, invsqrt) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(1, u1 * u2^2)

den1 = invsqrt * u1
den2 = invsqrt * u2
z_inv = den1 * den2 * t0

ix0 = x0 * SQRT_M1
iy0 = y0 * SQRT_M1
enchanted_denominator = den1 * INVSQRT_A_MINUS_D

rotate = IS_NEGATIVE(t0 * z_inv)

// Conditionally rotate x and y.
x = CT_SELECT(iy0 IF rotate ELSE x0)
y = CT_SELECT(ix0 IF rotate ELSE y0)
z = z0
den_inv = CT_SELECT(enchanted_denominator IF rotate ELSE den2)

y = CT_SELECT(-y IF IS_NEGATIVE(x * z_inv) ELSE y)

s = CT_ABS(den_inv * (z - y))
  1. Return the 32-byte little-endian encoding of s.

Note that decoding and then re-encoding a valid group element will yield an identical byte string.

4.3.3. Equals

The equality function returns TRUE when two internal representations correspond to the same group element. Note that internal representations MUST NOT be compared in any other way than specified here.

For two internal representations (x1, y1, z1, t1) and (x2, y2, z2, t2), if

(x1 * y2 == y1 * x2) | (y1 * y2 == x1 * x2)

evaluates to TRUE, then return TRUE. Otherwise, return FALSE.

Note that the equality function always returns TRUE when applied to an internal representation and to the internal representation obtained by encoding and then re-decoding it. However, the internal representations themselves might not be identical.

Implementations MAY also perform byte comparisons on encodings for an equivalent, although less efficient, result.

4.3.4. One-way map

The one-way map operates on uniformly distributed 64-byte strings. To obtain such an input from an arbitrary length byte string, applications should use a domain-separated hash construction, the choice of which is out-of-scope for this document.

The one-way map on an input string b proceeds as follows:

  1. Compute P1 as MAP(b[0:32]).

  2. Compute P2 as MAP(b[32:64]).

  3. Return P1 + P2.

The MAP function is defined on a 32-byte string as:

  1. First, mask the most significant bit in the final byte of the string, and interpret the string as an integer r in little-endian representation. Reduce r modulo p to obtain a field element t.

    • Masking the most significant bit is equivalent to interpreting the whole string as an integer in little-endian representation and then reducing it modulo 2^255.

    • Note: similarly to [RFC7748] field element decoding, and unlike field element decoding in Section 4.3.1, the most significant bit is masked, and non-canonical values are accepted.

  2. Process t as follows:

r = SQRT_M1 * t^2
u = (r + 1) * ONE_MINUS_D_SQ
v = (-1 - r*D) * (r + D)

(was_square, s) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(u, v)
s_prime = -CT_ABS(s*t)
s = CT_SELECT(s IF was_square ELSE s_prime)
c = CT_SELECT(-1 IF was_square ELSE r)

N = c * (r - 1) * D_MINUS_ONE_SQ - v

w0 = 2 * s * v
w1 = N * SQRT_AD_MINUS_ONE
w2 = 1 - s^2
w3 = 1 + s^2
  1. Return the group element represented by the internal representation (w0*w3, w2*w1, w1*w3, w0*w2).

4.4. Scalar field

The scalars for the ristretto255 group are integers modulo the order l of the ristretto255 group. Note that this is the same scalar field as Curve25519, allowing existing implementations to be reused.

Scalars are encoded as 32-byte strings in little-endian order. Implementations SHOULD check that any scalar s falls in the range 0 <= s < l when parsing them and reject non-canonical scalar encodings. Implementations SHOULD reduce scalars modulo l when encoding them as byte strings. Omitting these strict range checks is NOT RECOMMENDED but is allowed to enable reuse of scalar arithmetic implementations in existing Curve25519 libraries.

Given a uniformly distributed 64-byte string b, implementations can obtain a uniformly distributed scalar by interpreting the 64-byte string as a 512-bit integer in little-endian order and reducing the integer modulo l, as in [RFC8032].

5. decaf448

decaf448 is an instantiation of the abstract prime-order group interface defined in Section 3. This document describes how to implement the decaf448 prime-order group using edwards448 points as internal representations.

A "decaf448 group element" is the abstract element of the prime order group. An "element encoding" is the unique reversible encoding of a group element. An "internal representation" is a point on the curve used to implement decaf448. Each group element can have multiple equivalent internal representations.

Encoding, decoding, equality, and one-way map are defined in Section 5.3. Element addition, subtraction, negation, and scalar multiplication are implemented by applying the corresponding operations directly to the internal representation.

The group order is the same as the order of the edwards448 prime-order subgroup:

l = 2^446 -
  13818066809895115352007386748515426880336692474882178609894547503885

Since decaf448 is a prime-order group, every element except the identity is a generator, but for interoperability a canonical generator is selected, which can be internally represented by the edwards448 basepoint, enabling reuse of existing precomputation for scalar multiplication. This is its encoding:

66666666 66666666 66666666 66666666 66666666 66666666 66666666
33333333 33333333 33333333 33333333 33333333 33333333 33333333

This repetitive constant is equal to 1/sqrt(5) in decaf448's field, corresponding to the curve448 base point with x = 5.

Implementations MUST NOT expose either the internal representation or its field implementation and MUST NOT expose any operations defined on the internal representations unless specified in this document.

5.1. Internal constants

This document references the following constant field element values. Implementations MUST NOT expose them to their API consumers.

  • D = 726838724295606890549323807888004534353641360687318060281490199180612328166730772686396383698676545930088884461843637361053498018326358

    • This is the Edwards d parameter for edwards448, as specified in Section 4.2 of [RFC7748], and is equal to -39081 in the field.

  • ONE_MINUS_D = 39082

  • ONE_MINUS_TWO_D = 78163

  • SQRT_MINUS_D = 98944233647732219769177004876929019128417576295529901074099889598043702116001257856802131563896515373927712232092845883226922417596214

  • INVSQRT_MINUS_D = 315019913931389607337177038330951043522456072897266928557328499619017160722351061360252776265186336876723201881398623946864393857820716

5.2. Square root of a ratio of field elements

The following function is defined on field elements, and is used to implement other decaf448 functions. Implementations MUST NOT expose it to their API consumers.

On input field elements u and v, the function SQRT_RATIO_M1(u, v) returns:

  • (TRUE, +sqrt(u/v)) if u and v are non-zero, and u/v is square;

  • (TRUE, zero) if u is zero;

  • (FALSE, zero) if v is zero and u is non-zero;

  • (FALSE, +sqrt(-u/v)) if u and v are non-zero, and u/v is non-square (so -(u/v) is square),

where +sqrt(x) indicates the non-negative square root of x.

The computation is similar to Section 5.2.3 of [RFC8032], with the difference that if the input is non-square, the function returns a result with a defined relationship to the inputs. This result is used for efficient implementation of the one-way map functionality. The function can be refactored from an existing edwards448 implementation.

SQRT_RATIO_M1(u, v) is defined as follows:

r = u * (u * v)^((p - 3) / 4) // Note: (p - 3) / 4 is an integer.

check = v * r^2
was_square = CT_EQ(check, u)

// Choose the nonnegative square root.
r = CT_ABS(r)

return (was_square, r)

5.3. External decaf448 functions

5.3.1. Decode

All elements are encoded as a 56-byte string. Decoding proceeds as follows:

  1. First, interpret the string as an integer s in little-endian representation. If the length of the string is not 56 bytes, or if the resulting value is >= p, decoding fails.

    • Note: unlike [RFC7748] field element decoding, non-canonical values are rejected. The test vectors in Appendix B.2 exercise these edge cases.

  2. If IS_NEGATIVE(s) returns TRUE, decoding fails.

  3. Process s as follows:

ss = s^2
u1 = 1 + ss
u2 = u1^2 - 4 * D * ss
(was_square, invsqrt) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(1, u2 * u1^2)
u3 = CT_ABS(2 * s * invsqrt * u1 * SQRT_MINUS_D)
x = u3 * invsqrt * u2 * INVSQRT_MINUS_D
y = (1 - ss) * invsqrt * u1
t = x * y
  1. If was_square is FALSE then decoding fails. Otherwise, return the group element represented by the internal representation (x, y, 1, t).

5.3.2. Encode

A group element with internal representation (x0, y0, z0, t0) is encoded as follows:

  1. Process the internal representation into a field element s as follows:

u1 = (x0 + t0) * (x0 - t0)

// Ignore was_square since this is always square.
(_, invsqrt) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(1, u1 * ONE_MINUS_D * x0^2)

ratio = CT_ABS(invsqrt * u1 * SQRT_MINUS_D)
u2 = INVSQRT_MINUS_D * ratio * z0 - t0
s = CT_ABS(ONE_MINUS_D * invsqrt * x0 * u2)
  1. Return the 56-byte little-endian encoding of s.

Note that decoding and then re-encoding a valid group element will yield an identical byte string.

5.3.3. Equals

The equality function returns TRUE when two internal representations correspond to the same group element. Note that internal representations MUST NOT be compared in any other way than specified here.

For two internal representations (x1, y1, z1, t1) and (x2, y2, z2, t2), if

x1 * y2 == y1 * x2

evaluates to TRUE, then return TRUE. Otherwise, return FALSE.

Note that the equality function always returns TRUE when applied to an internal representation and to the internal representation obtained by encoding and then re-decoding it. However, the internal representations themselves might not be identical.

Implementations MAY also perform byte comparisons on encodings for an equivalent, although less efficient, result.

5.3.4. One-way map

The one-way map operates on uniformly distributed 112-byte strings. To obtain such an input from an arbitrary length byte string, applications should use a domain-separated hash construction, the choice of which is out-of-scope for this document.

The one-way map on an input string b proceeds as follows:

  1. Compute P1 as MAP(b[0:56]).

  2. Compute P2 as MAP(b[56:112]).

  3. Return P1 + P2.

The MAP function is defined on a 56-byte string as:

  1. Interpret the string as an integer r in little-endian representation. Reduce r modulo p to obtain a field element t.

    • Note: similarly to [RFC7748] field element decoding, and unlike field element decoding in Section 5.3.1, non-canonical values are accepted.

  2. Process t as follows:

r = -t^2
u0 = d * (r-1)
u1 = (u0 + 1) * (u0 - r)

(was_square, v) = SQRT_RATIO_M1(ONE_MINUS_TWO_D, (r + 1) * u1)
v_prime = CT_SELECT(v IF was_square ELSE t * v)
sgn     = CT_SELECT(1 IF was_square ELSE -1)
s = v_prime * (r + 1)

w0 = 2 * CT_ABS(s)
w1 = s^2 + 1
w2 = s^2 - 1
w3 = v_prime * s * (r - 1) * ONE_MINUS_TWO_D + sgn
  1. Return the group element represented by the internal representation (w0*w3, w2*w1, w1*w3, w0*w2).

5.4. Scalar field

The scalars for the decaf448 group are integers modulo the order l of the decaf448 group. Note that this is the same scalar field as edwards448, allowing existing implementations to be reused.

Scalars are encoded as 56-byte strings in little-endian order. Implementations SHOULD check that any scalar s falls in the range 0 <= s < l when parsing them and reject non-canonical scalar encodings. Implementations SHOULD reduce scalars modulo l when encoding them as byte strings. Omitting these strict range checks is NOT RECOMMENDED but is allowed to enable reuse of scalar arithmetic implementations in existing edwards448 libraries.

Given a uniformly distributed 64-byte string b, implementations can obtain a scalar by interpreting the 64-byte string as a 512-bit integer in little-endian order and reducing the integer modulo l.

6. API Considerations

ristretto255 and decaf448 are abstractions which implement two prime-order groups, and their elements are represented by curve points, but they are not curve points. The API needs to reflect that: the type representing an element of the group SHOULD be opaque and MUST NOT expose the underlying curve point or field elements.

It is expected that a ristretto255 or decaf448 implementation can change its underlying curve without causing any breaking change. The ristretto255 and decaf448 constructions are carefully designed so that this will be the case, as long as implementations do not expose internal representations or operate on them except as described in this document. In particular, implementations MUST NOT define any external ristretto255 or decaf448 interface as operating on arbitrary curve points, and they MUST NOT construct group elements except via decoding, the one-way map, or group operations on other valid group elements per Section 3. They are however allowed to apply any optimization strategy to the internal representations as long as it doesn't change the exposed behavior of the API.

It is RECOMMENDED that implementations do not perform a decoding and encoding operation for each group operation, as it is inefficient and unnecessary. Implementations SHOULD instead provide an opaque type to hold the internal representation through multiple operations.

7. IANA Considerations

This document has no IANA actions.

8. Security Considerations

The ristretto255 and decaf448 groups provide higher-level protocols with the abstraction they expect: a prime-order group. Therefore, it's expected to be safer for use in any situation where Curve25519 or edwards448 is used to implement a protocol requiring a prime-order group. Note that the safety of the abstraction can be defeated by implementations that do not follow the guidance in Section 6.

There is no function to test whether an elliptic curve point is a valid internal representation of a group element. The decoding function always returns a valid internal representation, or an error, and allowed operations on valid internal representations return valid internal representations. In this way, an implementation can maintain the invariant that an internal representation is always valid, so that checking is never necessary, and invalid states are unrepresentable.
