    1. Executive Summary

       This document describes the MD2 message-digest algorithm. The
       algorithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces
       as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.
       It is conjectured that it is computationally infeasible to produce
       two messages having the same message digest, or to produce any
       message having a given prespecified target message digest. The MD2
       algorithm is intended for digital signature applications, where a
       large file must be "compressed" in a secure manner before being
       signed with a private (secret) key under a public-key cryptosystem
       such as RSA.

       License to use MD2 is granted for non-commerical Internet Privacy-
       Enhanced Mail [1-3].

       This document is an update to the August 1989 RFC 1115 [3], which
       also gives a reference implementation of MD2. The main differences

    Kaliski                                                         [Page 1]

    RFC 1319              MD2 Message-Digest Algorithm            April 1992

       are that a textual description of MD2 is included, and that the
       reference implementation of MD2 is more portable.

       For OSI-based applications, MD2's object identifier is

       md2 OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
       iso(1) member-body(2) US(840) rsadsi(113549) digestAlgorithm(2) 2}

       In the X.509 type AlgorithmIdentifier [4], the parameters for MD2
       should have type NULL.

    2. Terminology and Notation

       In this document, a "byte" is an eight-bit quantity.

       Let x_i denote "x sub i". If the subscript is an expression, we
       surround it in braces, as in x_{i+1}. Similarly, we use ^ for
       superscripts (exponentiation), so that x^i denotes x to the i-th
       power.

       Let X xor Y denote the bit-wise XOR of X and Y.

    3. MD2 Algorithm Description

       We begin by supposing that we have a b-byte message as input, and
       that we wish to find its message digest. Here b is an arbitrary
       nonnegative integer; b may be zero, and it may be arbitrarily large.
       We imagine the bytes of the message written down as follows:

                       m_0 m_1 ... m_{b-1}

       The following five steps are performed to compute the message digest
       of the message.

    3.1 Step 1. Append Padding Bytes

       The message is "padded" (extended) so that its length (in bytes) is
       congruent to 0, modulo 16. That is, the message is extended so that
       it is a multiple of 16 bytes long. Padding is always performed, even
       if the length of the message is already congruent to 0, modulo 16.

       Padding is performed as follows: "i" bytes of value "i" are appended
       to the message so that the length in bytes of the padded message
       becomes congruent to 0, modulo 16. At least one byte and at most 16
       16 bytes are appended.

       At this point the resulting message (after padding with bytes) has a
       length that is an exact multiple of 16 bytes. Let M[0 ... N-1] denote

    Kaliski                                                         [Page 2]

    RFC 1319              MD2 Message-Digest Algorithm            April 1992

       the bytes of the resulting message, where N is a multiple of 16.

    3.2 Step 2. Append Checksum

       A 16-byte checksum of the message is appended to the result of the
       previous step.

       This step uses a 256-byte "random" permutation constructed from the
       digits of pi. Let S[i] denote the i-th element of this table. The
       table is given in the appendix.

       Do the following:

          /* Clear checksum. */
          For i = 0 to 15 do:
             Set C[i] to 0.
          end /* of loop on i */

          Set L to 0.

          /* Process each 16-word block. */
          For i = 0 to N/16-1 do

             /* Checksum block i. */
             For j = 0 to 15 do
                Set c to M[i*16+j].
                Set C[j] to S[c xor L].
                Set L to C[j].
              end /* of loop on j */
           end /* of loop on i */

       The 16-byte checksum C[0 ... 15] is appended to the message. Let M[0
       with checksum), where N' = N + 16.

    3.3 Step 3. Initialize MD Buffer

       A 48-byte buffer X is used to compute the message digest. The buffer
       is initialized to zero.

    Kaliski                                                         [Page 3]

    RFC 1319              MD2 Message-Digest Algorithm            April 1992

    3.4 Step 4. Process Message in 16-Byte Blocks

       This step uses the same 256-byte permutation S as step 2 does.

       Do the following:

          /* Process each 16-word block. */
          For i = 0 to N'/16-1 do

             /* Copy block i into X. */
             For j = 0 to 15 do
                Set X[16+j] to M[i*16+j].
                Set X[32+j] to (X[16+j] xor X[j]).
              end /* of loop on j */

             Set t to 0.

             /* Do 18 rounds. */
             For j = 0 to 17 do

                /* Round j. */
                For k = 0 to 47 do
                   Set t and X[k] to (X[k] xor S[t]).
                end /* of loop on k */

                Set t to (t+j) modulo 256.
             end /* of loop on j */

          end /* of loop on i */

    3.5 Step 5. Output

       The message digest produced as output is X[0 ... 15]. That is, we
       begin with X[0], and end with X[15].

       This completes the description of MD2. A reference implementation in
       C is given in the appendix.

    4. Summary

       The MD2 message-digest algorithm is simple to implement, and provides
       a "fingerprint" or message digest of a message of arbitrary length.
       It is conjectured that the difficulty of coming up with two messages
       having the same message digest is on the order of 2^64 operations,
       and that the difficulty of coming up with any message having a given
       message digest is on the order of 2^128 operations. The MD2 algorithm
       has been carefully scrutinized for weaknesses. It is, however, a
       relatively new algorithm and further security analysis is of course

    Kaliski                                                         [Page 4]

    RFC 1319              MD2 Message-Digest Algorithm            April 1992

       justified, as is the case with any new proposal of this sort.

    Security Considerations

       The level of security discussed in this memo is considered to be
       sufficient for implementing very high security hybrid digital
       signature schemes based on MD2 and a public-key cryptosystem.
