User Key Derivation

(code)

A user's key should be generated at "construction" time of a potential client. The user key derivation step is the longer part of the generation and should be separated from the cheaper site key and password generation steps.

Variables

  • user_name
  • user_secret

Steps

  1. user_name as byte slice
  2. user_secret as byte slice
  3. key_scope (Authentication) as byte slice
  4. key_salt = key_scope + len(user_name) (big endian) + user_name
  5. user_key = scrypt(password = user_secret, salt = key_salt, N = 32768, r = 8, p = 2, key_length = 64)

Store the user_key for use later.

Site Key Generation

(code)

The site key generation step is part of getting a password and is used against a template.

Variables

  • site_name
  • counter
  • scope

Steps

  1. site_name as byte slice
  2. scope as byte slice
  3. key_salt = scope + len(site_name) (big endian) + site_name + counter (big endian)
  4. site_key = HMAC-SHA256(key = user_key, data = key_salt)

Site Password Generation

(code)

Variables

Steps

  1. site_key as byte slice
  2. template_set = templates[ template_type ] (templates)
  3. template = template_set[ site_key[0] % len(template_set) ]
  4. for each character b in the template (loop_index starting at 0)
    1. chars = characters[ b ] (characters)
    2. char = chars[ site_key[ loop_index + 1 ] % len(chars) ]
    3. add char to output string

Scopes

(code)

Scope Value Default Template
Authentication com.lyndir.masterpassword Long
Identification com.lyndir.masterpaswword.login Name
Recovery com.lyndir.masterpassword.answer Phrase

NOTE: One difference in my implementations compared to the original is allowing consumers to choose their own "scoper", some interface that can respond to the three scopes with whatever response they choose.
This means that any custom implementation will not return the same results, so keep that in mind when using a service.
