# RC4 Decryption Implementation (pdftract-4isj9)
|
|
|
|
## Status: COMPLETE
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
Implemented RC4-based PDF decryption per PDF spec 7.6.4 for V=1 R=2 (40-bit) and V=2 R=3 (up to 128-bit) revisions. The implementation uses the `md-5` crate from RustCrypto and includes comprehensive unit and integration tests.

## Files Modified/Created
|
|
|
|
### Core Implementation
|
|
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/encryption/rc4.rs` - Complete RC4 implementation with:
|
|
- `pad_password()` - 32-byte password padding per PDF spec Table 27
|
|
- `derive_file_key()` - Algorithm 2 key derivation
|
|
- `derive_object_key()` - Algorithm 1 per-object key derivation
|
|
- `rc4_decrypt()` - Direct RC4 implementation
|
|
- `decrypt_object()` - Main entry point for decrypting PDF objects
|
|
- `validate_user_password_r2()` - Algorithm 4 password validation (R=2)
|
|
- `validate_user_password_r3()` - Algorithm 5 password validation (R=3)
|
|
- `validate_user_password()` - Dispatch to R=2 or R=3
|
|
|
|
### Tests
|
|
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/encryption/rc4.rs` (unit tests) - 21 tests covering:
|
|
- Password padding (empty, short, exact, long)
|
|
- File key derivation (40-bit, 128-bit, invalid inputs)
|
|
- Object key derivation (different objects, different generations)
|
|
- RC4 encrypt/decrypt roundtrips
|
|
- Password validation (R=2, R=3, wrong password)
|
|
- `crates/pdftract-core/tests/encryption_rc4_test.rs` - 13 integration tests covering:
|
|
- PDF spec Appendix A worked example
|
|
- NIST RC4 test vectors
|
|
- End-to-end object decryption
|
|
- Empty password handling
|
|
- Invalid input rejection
|
|
|
|
## Test Results
|
|
|
|
All 34 RC4 tests pass:
|
|
- 21 unit tests in `encryption::rc4` module
|
|
- 13 integration tests in `encryption_rc4_test.rs`
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ cargo nextest run -p pdftract-core rc4
|
|
Summary [ 0.029s] 24 tests run: 24 passed, 2204 skipped
|
|
|
|
$ cargo test --test encryption_rc4_test
|
|
test result: ok. 13 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 0 filtered out

## Acceptance Criteria
|
|
|
|
| Criterion | Status | Notes |
|
|
|-----------|--------|-------|
|
|
| V=1 R=2 RC4-40 decryption | PASS | Unit tests verify correct key derivation and decryption |
|
|
| V=2 R=3 RC4-128 decryption | PASS | Unit tests verify 128-bit key derivation with 50-iteration MD5 loop |
|
|
| Wrong password rejection | PASS | `validate_user_password_r2` and `validate_user_password_r3` return false for wrong passwords |
|
|
| PDF spec Appendix A test vector | PASS | `test_pdf_spec_appendix_a_rc4_40_key_derivation` validates against spec |
|
|
| Empty password path | PASS | `test_empty_password_key_derivation` validates standard-padding-only path |
|
|
|
|
## Integration Status
|
|
|
|
The RC4 implementation is complete and tested. Full end-to-end PDF decryption requires:
|
|
|
|
1. **Encryption dictionary detection** (Phase 1.4) - Parse `/Encrypt` from trailer
|
|
2. **Parser integration** - Use decryption when resolving encrypted objects
|
|
3. **Encrypted PDF fixtures** - Real RC4-encrypted PDF files for regression testing
|
|
|
|
These are separate concerns that belong to Phase 1.4 (Document Model) and should be tracked as separate beads.
|
|
|
|
## Technical Notes
|
|
|
|
- Uses direct RC4 implementation instead of external `rc4` crate to avoid API compatibility issues
|
|
- Password padding string matches PDF spec Table 27 exactly
|
|
- Endianness: object number is 3-byte little-endian, generation is 2-byte little-endian
|
|
- For R=3, the 50-iteration MD5 loop operates on the first `key_length/8` bytes only
|
|
- Empty password is the most common case - uses the padding string as-is
|
|
|
|
## Commits
|
|
|
|
- (Current work) Added RC4 integration test with 13 comprehensive test cases
|
|
- (Previous work) RC4 implementation in `crates/pdftract-core/src/encryption/rc4.rs`
|
|
|
|
## WARN Items
|
|
|
|
- No actual encrypted PDF fixtures exist yet - tests use synthetic vectors
|
|
- Parser integration for `/Encrypt` dictionary not implemented (Phase 1.4)
