Trouble with OpenSSL's BN_bn2bin function
Date : March 29 2020, 07:55 AM
may help you . BN_bn2bin doesn't create a printable string - instead, it creates a representation that is truly binary (i.e. a sequence of bits). More specifically, it createas a big-endian representation of the number. Since 42 fits into one byte, you get one byte 0x2a, which is "*" in ASCII. If you want a 0/1 representation, you need to iterate over all bytes, and do the printing yourself (e.g. with shifting or a lookup table).

Unsure of parameter to store BIGNUM in char - BN_bn2bin()
Date : March 29 2020, 07:55 AM
seems to work fine len is the length of the buffer pointed to by p. The function pads out the converted bignum to len bytes (with zeroes, which doesn't change the mathematical value of the number represented). That function appears to have a bug, by the way - I strongly suspect that the memset() call should be memset(p, 0, pad);.

Use of OpenSSL BN_hex2bn in Swift 4 - How to build the handle
Date : March 29 2020, 07:55 AM
To fix the issue you can do BN_hex2bn() expects the address of a BIGNUM * as the first argument, in Swift that is the address of an UnsafeMutablePointer ? variable. You “only” have to declare that variable (optionals are automatically initialized with nil) and pass it as an inout-argument with & to the function. Example:let hexString = "123456789abcdef"
var bn: UnsafeMutablePointer<BIGNUM>?
BN_hex2bn(&bn, hexString)
// Do something with `bn` ...
// Eventually free the memory:
BN_free(bn)
class BN {
var bn: UnsafeMutablePointer<BIGNUM>?
init(hexString: String) {
BN_hex2bn(&bn, hexString)
}
deinit {
if let bn = bn { BN_free(bn) }
}
}
