poly1305

Poly1305 is a one-time authenticator originally designed by D. J. Bernstein. Poly1305 takes a 32-byte one-time key and a message and produces a 16-byte tag. It can be used to verify the data integrity and the authenticity of a message.

This module provide poly1305 message authentication code (MAC) for V Language. As a note, a key must only be used for a single message . Authenticating two different messages with the same key allows an attacker to forge authenticators for other messages with the same key.

[!NOTE] This module was upstreamed to standard vlib, lives at experimental module in x.crypto.poly1305 So, development and test would be done on main repository. Use that instead.
