Luarabbit is a small Lua extension library including the Rabbit stream cipher.
It works with Lua versions 5.1 to 5.3.
Rabbit is a very fast stream cipher (faster and much stronger than rc4). It was one of the four eSTREAM finalists in 2008. See the rabbit presentation pages at eSTREAM and at ECRYPT II. Rabbit was also specified in RFC 4503
rabbit(str, key, iv)
encrypt (or decrypt, as rabbit is symmetric) string str with
key string key and initial value string iv.
key must be 16 bytes. iv must be 8 bytes
return the encrypted string (same length as str)
or nil, error msg if the key or iv lengths are not correct
-- for more information and references on rabbit, see the comment
at the top of src/rabbit.c
encode(str, key, iv)
decode(str, key, iv)
encode and decode are defined as aliases of the rabbit()
symmetrical function.
