hash — 生成哈希值（消息摘要）

说明

string hash ( string $algo , string $data [, bool $raw_output = false ] )

参数

algo: 要使用的哈希算法，例如："md5"，"sha256"，"haval160,4" 等。
data: 要进行哈希运算的消息。
raw_output: 设置为 TRUE 输出原始二进制数据，设置为 FALSE 输出小写 16 进制字符串。

返回值

如果 raw_output 设置为 TRUE ，则返回原始二进制数据表示的信息摘要，否则返回 16 进制小写字符串格式表示的信息摘要。

Be carreful ! SHA256 return plain text string for empty field !!! empty function will not work ! Make a test before hash your POST.

I made a PHP script that will let you sort all the available hashes on your system by generation time or by the length of the hash. It shows a general correlation on my system (longer hashes take longer to calculate) but some are faster than others, for example, sha512 makes the (joint) longest hash, but is actually only ninth slowest (from 43 hashes available on my machine)

As I understand it, the strength of a hash is dependant on the number of collisions that it has (where two input values produce the same hash) so with an infinite number of input values but a finite number of hashes, there are a (theoretically) infinite number of collisions. But, if you have a longer hash, then you're dividing infinity by a larger number, so you'll have fewer collisions.

In reality the number of collisions will be limited by the minimum and maximum password lengths that you choose to allow, so that if you enforce a policy where passwords must be exactly a certain length (20 characters for example) you'll have a large number of unique passwords, but a smaller number of potential inputs than you have hashes coming out, so that should prevent collisions entirely. In theory.

Tl;dr: I think that longer hashes are better.

Anyway, here's the code:
<?php $data = "hello"; foreach (hash_algos() as $v) { $time=microtime(1); for ($i = 0; $i < 10000; $i++) { $r[$v] = strlen(hash($v, $data.$i, false)); } $t[$v] = microtime(1)-$time; } switch ($_GET['sort']) { default: ksort ($r); $array = 'r'; break; case 'length': asort ($r); $array = 'r'; break; case 'time': asort ($t); $array = 't'; break; } echo '<pre> <a href="?sort=alph">Name</a> | <a href="?sort=length">Hash Length</a> | <a href="?sort=time">Time taken for 10000 hashes.</a>'."\n"; foreach ($$array as $key => $value) { echo $key; for ($i = strlen ($key); $i <= 19; $i++) { echo ' '; } echo '| '.$r[$key]; for ($i = strlen ($r[$key]); $i <= 11; $i++) { echo ' '; } echo '| '.$t[$key]."\n"; } echo '</pre>'; ?>

It seems that the adler32 algorithm has gotten a lot faster.

[#4] sneskid at hotmail dot com [2012-03-14 21:32:46]

On two different servers I found that crc32() relates to hash('crc32b',)
This may be good to know if you are writing a crc32_file function based on hash_file.
(The example does not compensate for negative crc32 results)
<?php $val = 'hello'; var_dump(crc32($val) == ( '0x' . hash('crc32b', $val) ) ); // bool(true) var_dump(crc32($val) == ( '0x' . hash('crc32', $val) ) ); // bool(false) ?>

Also if you are looking for a way to reduce collisions and still keep the hash result small (smaller than say md5) you could get a nice database friendly 64 bit value by using hash/crc32 and hash/crc32b, which is slower than a single md5 but the result may be more suitable for certain tasks.
<?php $val = 'hello'; $crc64 = ( '0x' . hash('crc32', $val) . hash('crc32b', $val) ) ); var_dump($crc64); // string(18) "0x3d6531193610a686" var_dump($crc64 + 0); // int(4423996193312384646) ?>

(examples tested on php 5.2.17)
note: ('0x' . $hex . + 0) is faster than base_convert($hex,16,10)

[#5] nmmm at nmmm dot nu [2011-07-20 13:50:33]

I was interested how "long" each hash is, so I did:

<?php $data = "hello"; foreach (hash_algos() as $v) {         $r = hash($v, $data, false);         printf("%-12s %3d %s\n", $v, strlen($r), $r); } ?>

which produce (long hashes are cropped)

The well known hash functions MD5 and SHA1 should be avoided in new applications. Collission attacks against MD5 are well documented in the cryptographics literature and have already been demonstrated in practice. Therefore, MD5 is no longer secure for certain applications.

Collission attacks against SHA1 have also been published, though they still require computing power, which is somewhat out of scope. As computing power increases with time and the attacks are likely to get better, too, attacks against systems relying on SHA1 for security are likely to become feasible within the next few years.

There is no lack of potential alternative hash algorithms, as the many choices for the "algo" argument of PHPs hash() function already suggests. Unfortunately, there is lack of analysis, as to how secure these alternative algorithms are. It is rather safe to assume, though, that the SHA2 family with its most prominent members SHA-256 und SHA-512, is better than SHA1.

When storing password hashes, it is a good idea to prefix a salt to the password before hashing, to avoid the same passwords to hash to the same values and to avoid the use of rainbow tables for password recovery. Unlike suggested in other articles, there is no security advantage in putting the salt in the middle, or even at both the beginning and the end, of the combined salt-password-string.

Rather, there are two other factors, that determine the strength of the salt: Its length and its variability. For example, using the same salt for all passwords is easy to implement, but gives only very little additional security. In particular, if users type the same passwords, they will still hash to the same value!

Therefore, the salt should be random string with at least as many variable bits, as there are bits in the hash result. In the user database, store username, the randomly generated salt for that user, and the result of hashing the salt-password-string. Access authentication is then done by looking up the entry for the user, calculating the hash of the salt found in the database and the password provided by the user, and comparing the result with the one stored in the database.

When using hash() for storing passwords, I've found that the best practice is not to use just one salt, but two. This example uses my preferred algorithm for passwords, whirlpool.

This way, even if someone can produce a rainbow table for your algorithm, and has the salt to do it with, they will never know where in the hash parameter the second salt was placed, because they don't know the length of the actual password.

<?php function doubleSalt($toHash,$username){ $password = str_split($toHash,(strlen($toHash)/2)+1); var_dump($password); $hash = hash('md5', $username.$password[0].'centerSalt'.$password[1]); return $hash; } ?>

The str_split operation needs a +1 appended, otherwise the last character is cut off when the password is an odd number of characters, so that pass1 and pass2 will return the same value.

Just a quick note about these benchmarks and how you should apply them.

If you are hashing passwords etc for security, speed is not your friend. You should use the slowest method.

Slow to hash means slow to crack and will hopefully make generating things like rainbow tables more trouble than it's worth.

Another comprehensive benchmark script that orders results from best to worst and includes the crc32(), md5() and sha1() standalone functions:

<?php define('HASH_TIMES', 1000); define('HASH_DATA', 'The quick brown fox jumped over!'); // 32 bytes header('Content-Type: text/plain'); echo 'Testing ' . strlen(HASH_DATA) . ' bytes of data over ' . HASH_TIMES . " iterations:\n"; foreach (hash_algos() as $algo) { $time = microtime(1); for ($i = 0; $i < HASH_TIMES; $i++) hash($algo, HASH_DATA); $results[$algo] = microtime(1) - $time; } $time = microtime(1); for ($i = 0; $i < HASH_TIMES; $i++) crc32(HASH_DATA); $results['crc32()'] = microtime(1) - $time; $time = microtime(1); for ($i = 0; $i < HASH_TIMES; $i++) md5(HASH_DATA); $results['md5()'] = microtime(1) - $time; $time = microtime(1); for ($i = 0; $i < HASH_TIMES; $i++) sha1(HASH_DATA); $results['sha1()'] = microtime(1) - $time; asort($results, SORT_NUMERIC); foreach ($results as $algo => $time) echo "\n$time\t$algo"; ?>

A upgrade of (dani88elx AT gmail DOT com)'s performance test [from 26-Jun-2007], this time grading them by speed (fastest first) and comparing times between hex and raw data.

<?php function testAlgos() { $algos = hash_algos(); $word="This will be crypted by all different algoritms"; $results = array(); foreach($algos as $algo) { $time=microtime(1); $data = hash($algo, $word, false); $results["".(microtime(1)-$time)][] = "$algo (hex)"; } foreach($algos as $algo) { $time=microtime(1); $data = hash($algo, $word, true); $results["".(microtime(1)-$time)][] = "$algo (raw)"; } ksort($results); foreach($results as $time => &$algos) { echo $time."\n"; sort($algos); foreach($algos as $algo) echo "\t".$algo."\n"; } } testAlgos(); ?>
