class OpenSSL::HMAC
OpenSSL::HMAC allows computing Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC). It is a type of message authentication code (MAC) involving a hash function in combination with a key. HMAC can be used to verify the integrity of a message as well as the authenticity.
OpenSSL::HMAC has a similar interface to OpenSSL::Digest.
HMAC-SHA256 using one-shot interface¶ ↑
key = "key" data = "message-to-be-authenticated" mac = OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest("SHA256", key, data) #=> "cddb0db23f469c8bf072b21fd837149bd6ace9ab771cceef14c9e517cc93282e"
HMAC-SHA256 using incremental interface¶ ↑
data1 = File.read("file1") data2 = File.read("file2") key = "key" digest = OpenSSL::Digest::SHA256.new hmac = OpenSSL::HMAC.new(key, digest) hmac << data1 hmac << data2 mac = hmac.digest
Public Class Methods
Returns the authentication code as a binary string. The digest parameter specifies the digest algorithm to use. This may be a String representing the algorithm name or an instance of OpenSSL::Digest.
Example¶ ↑
key = 'key' data = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog' hmac = OpenSSL::HMAC.digest('sha1', key, data) #=> "\xDE|\x9B\x85\xB8\xB7\x8A\xA6\xBC\x8Az6\xF7\n\x90p\x1C\x9D\xB4\xD9"
static VALUE
ossl_hmac_s_digest(VALUE klass, VALUE digest, VALUE key, VALUE data)
{
unsigned char *buf;
unsigned int buf_len;
StringValue(key);
StringValue(data);
buf = HMAC(ossl_evp_get_digestbyname(digest), RSTRING_PTR(key),
RSTRING_LENINT(key), (unsigned char *)RSTRING_PTR(data),
RSTRING_LEN(data), NULL, &buf_len);
return rb_str_new((const char *)buf, buf_len);
}
Returns the authentication code as a hex-encoded string. The digest parameter specifies the digest algorithm to use. This may be a String representing the algorithm name or an instance of OpenSSL::Digest.
Example¶ ↑
key = 'key' data = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog' hmac = OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest('sha1', key, data) #=> "de7c9b85b8b78aa6bc8a7a36f70a90701c9db4d9"
static VALUE
ossl_hmac_s_hexdigest(VALUE klass, VALUE digest, VALUE key, VALUE data)
{
unsigned char buf[EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE];
unsigned int buf_len;
VALUE ret;
StringValue(key);
StringValue(data);
if (!HMAC(ossl_evp_get_digestbyname(digest), RSTRING_PTR(key),
RSTRING_LENINT(key), (unsigned char *)RSTRING_PTR(data),
RSTRING_LEN(data), buf, &buf_len))
ossl_raise(eHMACError, "HMAC");
ret = rb_str_new(NULL, buf_len * 2);
ossl_bin2hex(buf, RSTRING_PTR(ret), buf_len);
return ret;
}
Returns an instance of OpenSSL::HMAC set with the key and digest algorithm to be used. The instance represents the initial state of the message authentication code before any data has been processed. To process data with it, use the instance method update with your data as an argument.
Example¶ ↑
key = 'key' digest = OpenSSL::Digest.new('sha1') instance = OpenSSL::HMAC.new(key, digest) #=> f42bb0eeb018ebbd4597ae7213711ec60760843f instance.class #=> OpenSSL::HMAC
A note about comparisons¶ ↑
Two instances won't be equal when they're compared, even if they have the same value. Use to_s or hexdigest to return the authentication code that the instance represents. For example:
other_instance = OpenSSL::HMAC.new('key', OpenSSL::Digest.new('sha1')) #=> f42bb0eeb018ebbd4597ae7213711ec60760843f instance #=> f42bb0eeb018ebbd4597ae7213711ec60760843f instance == other_instance #=> false instance.to_s == other_instance.to_s #=> true
static VALUE
ossl_hmac_initialize(VALUE self, VALUE key, VALUE digest)
{
HMAC_CTX *ctx;
StringValue(key);
GetHMAC(self, ctx);
HMAC_Init_ex(ctx, RSTRING_PTR(key), RSTRING_LENINT(key),
ossl_evp_get_digestbyname(digest), NULL);
return self;
}
