P256Verifier Solidity contract

This repo implements a gas-efficient, audited P256 signature verifier. Verifying a signature costs about 330k gas. Pure function, no precomputation.

The contract matches the proposed EIP-7212 precompile, letting us ship it as a progressive precompile.

The contract exists at a deterministic CREATE2 address. You can use it on any EVM chain. If the chain implements EIP-7212 at the same CREATE2 address as this contract, you pay ~3.4k gas. If not, you pay ~330k gas. Either way, the contract address and results are identical. This is particularly beneficial for chains that want to maintain full EVM compatibility while adding this new precompiles (upto gas schedules).

The secp256r1 elliptic curve, aka P256, is used by high-quality consumer enclaves including Yubikey, Apple's Secure Enclave, the Android Keystore, and WebAuthn. P256 verification is especially useful for contract wallets, enabling hardware-based signing keys and smoother UX.

This implementation was inspired by Renaud Dubois/Ledger's implementation and blst.

Usage

Address 0xc2b78104907F722DABAc4C69f826a522B2754De4

Available on any chain. If missing, see deploy.sh.

Install with:

  • forge install daimo-eth/p256-verifier
  • add p256-verifier/=lib/p256-verifier/src/ to remappings.txt
import "p256-verifier/P256.sol";

bytes32 hash; // message hash
uint256 r, s; // signature
uint256 x, y; // public key

bool valid = P256.verifySignature(hash, r, s, x, y);

Alternately, calling P256.verifySignatureAllowMalleability ignores malleability of signatures, matching the behavior specified by the NIST standard exactly.

You can also verify WebAuthn/Passkey signatures using the WebAuthn.sol library contract.

Audits

Development

Run foundryup to ensure you have the latest foundry. Then,

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:daimo-eth/p256-verifier
cd p256-verifier
forge test -vv

This runs test input and output handling as well as all applicable Wycheproof test vectors, covering a range of edge cases.

Code coverage Install the recommended VSCode extension to view line-by-line test coverage. To regenerate coverage: 
forge coverage --ir-minimum --report lcov
Test vectors

To regenerate test vectors:

cd test-vectors
npm i

# Download, extract, clean test vectors
# This regenerates ../test/vectors.jsonl
npm start

# Validate that all vectors produce expected results with SubtleCrypto and noble library implementation
npm test

# Validate that all vectors also work with EIP-7212
# Test the fallback contract...
cd ..
forge test -vv

# In future, execution spec and clients can test against the same clean vectors
