Help: Does anyone know of an XPCOM component that will encrypt/decrypt a XUL string using RSA encryption.
I can do it using javascript RSA libraries <http://www-cs- students.stanford.edu/~tjw/jsbn/>, but they are too slow (250ms) when decrypting (I need to decrypt a bunch of strings (~30) at a time). I am lead to believe that the NSS component <http://www.mozilla.org/ projects/security/pki/nss/nss-3.11/nss-3.11-algorithms.html> contains the appropriate functionality (RSA keygen/encryption/decryption) but I don't know how to access it from a XUL application. I've also found the WeaveCrypto XPCOM component used by mozilla weave <http://labs.mozilla.com/projects/weave/> which contains AES encryption but also an RSA generateKeyPair function, but as far as I can tell does not encrypt or decrypt using RSA, it only generates a key pair?
