Re: [wakaama-dev] Pre-Shared Key (PSK) Mode key lenght

Hi Boris,

I think, this issue is more related to tinyDTLS. Long ago, I also detected that issue, see

https://sourceforge.net/p/tinydtls/tickets/24/

According Olaf's answer, in his opinion, the PSK length is related to the blocksize of the cipher.
Months later I got aware, that this relation of the PSK length and the blocksize of the cipher
is more a recommendation than a requirement. Therefore I raised an issue at the OMA page 

https://github.com/OpenMobileAlliance/OMA_LwM2M_for_Developers/issues/151

which then results in lowering the requirement into recommendation.

So, if you want to use a larger PSK, I guess the right place to ask this is the tinyDTLS project.

Betreff: [wakaama-dev] Pre-Shared Key (PSK) Mode key lenght

Hi,
According to latest OMA-TS-LightweightM2M-V1_0-20170208, when using PSK mode it is recommended  to provision a 16 byte (128 bit) key or longer in the Secret Key Resource.
Currently wakaama is using tinydtls library for security which limits the key to 16 bytes length (DTLS_KEY_LENGTH 16).
Is it possible to increase this value?

Thanks,
Boris Shlafman
