ID: 26204 Updated by: jay@php.net Reported By: hagman at hotbrev dot com -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: All PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Is this keyed hashes we're talking about here? HMAC-type stuff? The mhash provides what you're looking for. There's also an example in the manual in the comments for the mhash function for doing keyed MD5 hashes without installing the mhash extension. btw, brute forcing MD5 isn't something that's particularly easy, keyed or otherwise. J Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-11 10:24:28] hagman at hotbrev dot com Description: ------------ An optional parameter for MD5(), for challenge, this makes it much harder to bruteforce MD5 hashes. Crypt only supports (random) one-way hashes? Reproduce code: --------------- The source on this has a javascript version. http://www.zonline.jamtland.se/login Expected result: ---------------- more secure hashes. Actual result: -------------- i dunno ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26204&edit=1
