Paul Sutton paul at softwareradiosystems.comHi Harald, The srsLTE implementation is taken from the ETSI specs simulation program listings: http://cryptome.org/uea2-uia2/etsi_sage_06_09_06.pdf and http://cryptome.org/uea2-uia2/snow_3g_spec.pdf https://www.etsi.org/intellectual-property-rights#mytoc3 and https://www.etsi.org/images/files/IPR/etsi-ipr-policy.pdf outline the copyright licensing details for software incorporated in ETSI standards however I have not taken legal advice on compatibility of this license with AGPLv3. >From a quick review, it looks like the CryptoMobile and NextEPC versions have taken the same approach. It would be good as you say to have a "clean copyright" implementation - perhaps this is something we could help with. Best regards, Paul > Hi! > > I'm now at a point where I would like to add SNOW-3G (EIA1/EEA1) support for > NAS integrity protection and ciphering to my upcoming TTCN-3 testsuite for the MME. > > However, it seems there is no real FOSS implementation of the SNOW-3G algoritm > around? All I could find was: > > * https://github.com/mitshell/CryptoMobile with unclear source of the code, > without a copyright statement or license annotation > > * https://github.com/rcatolino/libressl-snow3g/blob/master/crypto/snow3g/main.c > without a copyright statement or license annotation > > * https://github.com/Jadson27101/SNOW_3G in go, > without a copyright statement or license annotation > > * https://github.com/KsirbJ/SNOW-3G > without a copyright statement or license annotation > > * https://github.com/open5gs/nextepc/blob/master/src/mme/snow-3g.c > without a copyright statement or license annotation. Looks rather similar > to CryptoMobile. Possible just copy+pasted from ETSI reference implementation? > > * https://github.com/srsLTE/srsLTE/blob/master/lib/src/common/snow_3g.cc > also contains no coypright statement or license, but might be construed > to be AGPLv3 like all of srsLTE. However, it states it is "adapted" > from ETSI/SAGE specifications.
