Chaum's Blind Signature

NPM Package

Two implementations of RSA Blind Signatures

  1. ./rsablind.js https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind_signature

  2. ./rsablind2.js https://github.com/arisath/Blind-RSA

The RSA key generation uses the node-only module node-rsa but everything else should work outside of node.js

Use

npm install --save blind-signatures

const BlindSignature = require('blind-signatures');

const Bob = {
  key: BlindSignature.keyGeneration({ b: 2048 }), // b: key-length
  blinded: null,
  unblinded: null,
  message: null,
};

const Alice = {
  message: 'Hello Chaum!',
  N: null,
  E: null,
  r: null,
  signed: null,
  unblinded: null,
};

// Alice wants Bob to sign a message without revealing it's contents.
// Bob can later verify he did sign the message

console.log('Message:', Alice.message);

// Alice gets N and E variables from Bob's key
Alice.N = Bob.key.keyPair.n.toString();
Alice.E = Bob.key.keyPair.e.toString();

const { blinded, r } = BlindSignature.blind({
  message: Alice.message,
  N: Alice.N,
  E: Alice.E,
}); // Alice blinds message
Alice.r = r;

// Alice sends blinded to Bob
Bob.blinded = blinded;

const signed = BlindSignature.sign({

// Bob sends signed to Alice

const unblinded = BlindSignature.unblind({
