RSA_BLINDING_ON(3)                  OpenSSL                 RSA_BLINDING_ON(3)
NAME
       RSA_blinding_on, RSA_blinding_off - protect the RSA operation from
       timing attacks
SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/rsa.h>
        int RSA_blinding_on(RSA *rsa, BN_CTX *ctx);
        void RSA_blinding_off(RSA *rsa);
DESCRIPTION
       RSA is vulnerable to timing attacks. In a setup where attackers can
       measure the time of RSA decryption or signature operations, blinding
       must be used to protect the RSA operation from that attack.
       RSA_blinding_on() turns blinding on for key rsa and generates a random
       blinding factor. ctx is NULL or a preallocated and initialized BN_CTX.
       RSA_blinding_off() turns blinding off and frees the memory used for the
       blinding factor.
RETURN VALUES
       RSA_blinding_on() returns 1 on success, and 0 if an error occurred.
       RSA_blinding_off() returns no value.
