50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51.Nm
52makes or verifies a FIDO2 credential.
53.Pp
54A credential
55.Ar type
56may be
57.Em es256
58(denoting ECDSA over NIST P-256 with SHA-256),
59.Em rs256
60(denoting 2048-bit RSA with PKCS#1.5 padding and SHA-256), or
61.Em eddsa
62(denoting EDDSA over Curve25519 with SHA-512).
63If
64.Ar type
65is not specified,
66.Em es256
67is assumed.
68.Pp
69When making a credential, the authenticator may require the user
70to authenticate with a PIN.
71If the
72.Fl q
73option is not specified,
74.Nm
75will prompt the user for the PIN.
76If a
77.Em tty
78is available,
79.Nm
80will use it to obtain the PIN.
81Otherwise,
82.Em stdin
83is used.
84.Pp
85The input of
86.Nm
87is defined by the parameters of the credential to be made/verified.
88See the
89.Sx INPUT FORMAT
90section for details.
91.Pp
92The output of
93.Nm
94is defined by the result of the selected operation.
95See the
96.Sx OUTPUT FORMAT
97section for details.
98.Pp
99If a credential is successfully created or verified,
100.Nm
101exits 0.
102Otherwise,
103.Nm
104exits 1.
105.Pp
106The options are as follows:
107.Bl -tag -width Ds
108.It Fl M
109Tells
110.Nm
111to make a new credential on
112.Ar device .
113.It Fl V
114Tells
115.Nm
116to verify a credential.
117.It Fl b
118Request the credential's
119.Dq largeBlobKey ,
120a 32-byte symmetric key associated with the generated credential.
121.It Fl c Ar cred_protect
122If making a credential, set the credential's protection level to
123.Ar cred_protect ,
124where
125.Ar cred_protect
126is the credential's protection level in decimal notation.
127Please refer to
128.In fido/param.h
129for the set of possible values.
130If verifying a credential, check whether the credential's protection
131level was signed by the authenticator as
132.Ar cred_protect .
133.It Fl d
134Causes
135.Nm
136to emit debugging output on
137.Em stderr .
138.It Fl h
139If making a credential, enable the FIDO2 hmac-secret extension.
140If verifying a credential, check whether the extension data bit was
141signed by the authenticator.
142.It Fl i Ar input_file
143Tells
144.Nm
145to read the parameters of the credential from
146.Ar input_file
147instead of
148.Em stdin .
149.It Fl o Ar output_file
150Tells
151.Nm
152to write output on
153.Ar output_file
154instead of
155.Em stdout .
156.It Fl q
157Tells
158.Nm
159to be quiet.
160If a PIN is required and
161.Fl q
162is specified,
163.Nm
164will fail.
165.It Fl r
166Create a resident credential.
167Resident credentials are called
168.Dq discoverable credentials
169in CTAP 2.1.
170.It Fl u
171Create a U2F credential.
172By default,
173.Nm
174will use FIDO2 if supported by the authenticator, and fallback to
175U2F otherwise.
176.It Fl v
177If making a credential, request user verification.
178If verifying a credential, check whether the user verification bit
179was signed by the authenticator.
180.It Fl w
181Tells
182.Nm
183that the first line of input when making a credential shall be
184interpreted as unhashed client data.
185This is required by Windows Hello, which calculates the client data hash
186internally.
187.El
188.Sh INPUT FORMAT
189The input of
190.Nm
191consists of base64 blobs and UTF-8 strings separated
192by newline characters ('\\n').
193.Pp
194When making a credential,
195.Nm
196expects its input to consist of:
197.Pp
198.Bl -enum -offset indent -compact
199.It
200client data hash (base64 blob);
201.It
202relying party id (UTF-8 string);
203.It
204user name (UTF-8 string);
205.It
206user id (base64 blob).
207.El
208.Pp
209When verifying a credential,
210.Nm

228.El
229.Pp
230UTF-8 strings passed to
231.Nm
232must not contain embedded newline or NUL characters.
233.Sh OUTPUT FORMAT
234The output of
235.Nm
236consists of base64 blobs, UTF-8 strings, and PEM-encoded public
237keys separated by newline characters ('\\n').

239Upon the successful generation of a credential,
240.Nm
241outputs:
242.Pp

290.Sh CAVEATS
291Please note that
292.Nm
293handles Basic Attestation and Self Attestation transparently.
294In the case of Basic Attestation, the validity of the authenticator's
295attestation certificate is
296.Em not
297verified.
