This library implements the basic OPRF(ristretto255, SHA-512) variant from the IRTF CFRG Draft: https://github.com/cfrg/draft-irtf-cfrg-voprf/
Additionally it implements a threshold OPRF variant based on https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/363 by Krawczyk et al. which is compatible with the CFRG OPRF(ristretto255, SHA-512) variant.
Furthermore it also implements the 3hashTDH from https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/1455 "Threshold PAKE with Security against Compromise of all Servers" by Gu, Jarecki, Kedzior, Nazarian, Xu. This too is compatible with the CFRG OPRF(ristretto255, SHA-512) variant.
For the threshold OPRF this library also provides distributed key-generation (DKG) implementation that is based on a trusted party handling the broadcasts necessary for the DKG, this is based on the JF-DKG (fig 1.) a variant on Pedersens DKG from the paper "Secure Distributed Key Generation for Discrete-Log Based Cryptosystems" by R. Gennaro, S. Jarecki, H. Krawczyk, and T. Rabin.
The semi-trusted version of the DKG implements FT-Joint-DL-VSS from fig. 7 in R. Gennaro, M. O. Rabin, and T. Rabin. "Simplified VSS and fact-track multiparty computations with applications to threshold cryptography" In B. A. Coan and Y. Afek, editors, 17th ACM PODC, pages 101–111. ACM, June / July 1998
In order to update a threshold OPRF instantiation this library contains the multi-party multiplication is based on Fig. 2 from R. Gennaro, M. O. Rabin, and T. Rabin. "Simplified VSS and fact-track multiparty computations with applications to threshold cryptography" In B. A. Coan and Y. Afek, editors, 17th ACM PODC, pages 101–111. ACM, June / July 1998.
Additionally a python wrapper is provided, which can be installed
using pip install pyoprf
This library depends on libsodium.
