libcotp - Windows Port

Port of the libcotp library which compiles on Windows using Visual Studio (32-bit and 64-bit)

Ported by Twilight under the same license.

The non-portable gcrypt library has been replaced by the cross-platform OpenSSL library (tested with versions 1.1 and 3.0)

Original README.md:

libcotp

C library that generates TOTP and HOTP according to RFC-6238

Requirements

• libbaseencode
• GCC/Clang and CMake to build the library
• libgcrypt

Build and Install

$ git clone https://github.com/paolostivanin/libcotp.git
$ cd libcotp
$ mkdir build && cd $_
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr ../   # add -DBUILD_TESTING=ON if you want to compile also the tests
$ make
# make install

How To Use It

char *totp = get_totp (const char *base32_encoded_secret, int digits, int period, int algo, cotp_error_t *err);
free (totp);

char *steam_totp = get_steam_totp (const char *secret, int period, cotp_error_t *err)

char *hotp = get_hotp (const char *base32_encoded_secret, long counter, int digits, int algo, cotp_error_t *err);
free (hotp);

char *get_totp_at (const char *base32_encoded_secret, long target_date, int digits, int algo, cotp_error_t *err)

int is_valid = totp_verify (const har *base32_encoded_secret, const char *totp, int digits, int period, int algo, cotp_error_t *err);

int is_valid = hotp_verify (const char *base32_encoded_secret, long counter, digits, char *hotp, int algo, cotp_error_t *err);

where:

• secret_key is the base32 encoded secret. Usually, a website gives you the secret already base32 encoded, so you should pay attention to not encode the secret again. The format of the secret can either be hxdm vjec jjws or HXDMVJECJJWS. In the first case, the library will normalize the secret to second format before computing the OTP.
• digits is between 3 and 10 inclusive
• period is between 1 and 120 inclusive
• counter is a value decided with the server
• target_date is the target date specified as the unix epoch format in seconds
• algo is either SHA1, SHA256 or SHA512

Errors

get_totp, get_hotp and get_totp_at return NULL if an error occurs and err is set accordingly. The following errors are currently supported:

• GCRYPT_VERSION_MISMATCH, set if the installed Gcrypt library is too old
• INVALID_B32_INPUT, set if the given input is not valid base32 text
• INVALID_ALGO, set if the given algo is not supported by the library
• INVALID_PERIOD, set if period is <= 0 or > 120 seconds
• INVALID_DIGITS, set if digits is < 3 or > 10

totp_verify and hotp_verify can return, in addition to one of the previous code, also the error INVALID_OTP if the given OTP doesn't match the computed one.

In case of success, the value returned by get_totp, get_hotp and get_totp_at must be freed once no longer needed.
