Overview

RidgeRun's gst-crypto plugin makes it easy to encrypt or decrypt content passing through a GStreamer pipeline. gst-crypto will take advantage of any available crypto hardware accelerators. gst-crypto is based on OpenSSL so any encryption technology supported by OpenSSL can be supported by gst-crypto. Currently, only aes-128-cbc cipher is support. gst-crypto source code has not yet been reviewed by experts for security deficiencies.

Features

  • aes-128-cbc cipher support
  • Password or key/iv setup
  • GStreamer 0.10.x support
  • GStreamer 1.x support

Example Use Cases

  • Capture audio/video from a camera directly into an encrypted media file.
  • Decrypt streaming audio/video and render to local display/speakers.

Support

Modifications or extensions needed? Integration into other Embedded Linux Systems (e.g. Ubuntu, Yocto, ...)?

Build and run on a local Linux PC

Tested on Ubuntu-14.04 64 bit:

Source code fetch

git clone git@github.com:RidgeRun/gst-crypto
cd gst-crypto

GStreamer 0.10.x

git checkout release-0.10

GStreamer 1.x

git checkout release-1.0

Note: There are tagged releases also.

Compilation

./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

If you dont want to install into your system you can specify directory path with: 

GST_PLUGIN_PATH=src/.libs/ gst-launch ....

RR SDK Integration

One of our demo SDK's can be used:

GStreamer 0.10.x

Note: v0.10.0 (gst-crypto-0.10.0.tar.gz) contains a bug that names the plugin gst-crypto instead of crypto. Please keep that in mind when running the test pipelines.

Example pipelines

Test pipeline

GStreamer 0.10.x

On RR SDK after regular installation to /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10

echo "This is a crypto test ... " > plain.txt && gst-launch filesrc location=plain.txt ! crypto mode=enc ! crypto mode=dec ! filesink location=dec.txt && cat dec.txt

On Ubuntu after default installation to /usr/local/lib/gstreamer.0.10

echo "This is a crypto test ... " > plain.txt && gst-launch --gst-plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-0.10 filesrc location=plain.txt ! crypto mode=enc ! gst-crypto mode=dec ! filesink location=dec.txt && cat dec.txt

Note: You could also test the plugin without make install. Just run the pipeline from the source tree like: 

GST_PLUGIN_PATH=src/.libs/ gst-launch <some other elements> ! crypto  ! <some other elements>

GStreamer 1.x

On RR SDK after regular installation to /usr/lib/gstreamer-1.0

echo "This is a crypto test ... " > plain.txt && gst-launch-1.0  filesrc location=plain.txt ! crypto mode=enc ! crypto mode=dec ! filesink location=dec.txt && cat dec.txt

On Ubuntu after default installation to /usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0

echo "This is a crypto test ... " > plain.txt && gst-launch-1.0 --gst-plugin-path=/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0 filesrc location=plain.txt ! crypto mode=enc ! crypto mode=dec ! filesink location=dec.txt && cat dec.txt

Note: You could also test the plugin without make install. Just run the pipeline from the source tree like: 

GST_PLUGIN_PATH=src/.libs/ gst-launch-1.0 <some other elements> ! crypto  ! <some other elements>

Using Crypto Hardware Acceleration

Crypto Hardware Acceleration can be used transparently with the plugin and can be configured independently.

There are some considerations to take into account:

  • Does the MCU include a hardware crypto unit (e.g. CAAM on i.MX6)?
  • Which setup would result in a performance gain (e.g data block size on i.MX6)?
  • Is the cipher to be used supported by the hardware crypto unit and the kernel driver?
  • Is the kernel driver implemented efficiently?
