When it comes to cryptography, HMAC (short for Hash-based Message Authentication Code) stands out as a unique method used to compute a message authentication code (MAC). It cleverly combines a cryptographic hash function with a secret key to accomplish this task.

Having trouble creating a Node.js equivalent to PHP's hash checking functionality

These PHP lines are effective, but I am unable to replicate them in Node. $secret_key = hash('sha256', XXXX, true); $hash = hash_hmac('sha256', YYYY, $secret_key); The documentation states that hash() returns raw binary data, but it a ...

How can we extract word array in Python that works like CryptoJS.enc.Hex.parse(hash)?

Is there a method in Python to convert a hash into a word array similar to how it's done in JavaScript? In JavaScript using CryptoJS, you can achieve this by using: CryptoJS.enc.Hex.parse(hash), which will provide the word array. I've searched ...

What causes the discrepancy in the HMAC results between Python and Node.js in this specific code?

Lately, I've been tasked with creating an HMAC to facilitate communication with an API server. I was given a node.js code sample that generates an HMAC for a message. Using this as a reference, I attempted to create a python script that produces the same r ...

The PHP equivalent of OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest will generate a different result compared to the Ruby implementation

I have a piece of ruby code that I'm trying to convert to PHP : print OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest(OpenSSL::Digest.new("sha1"), 'hello', Base64.encode64('bonjour')) The output : 62ac34e5d28563d6a50272d660805d1f8c791e41 This is my ...
