Detailed Description

The old style of MediaWiki password hashing, with a salt.

It involves running MD5 on the password, and then running MD5 on the salt concatenated with the first hash.

Member Function Documentation

◆ crypt()

MWSaltedPassword::crypt (   $password)

Hash a password and store the result in this object.

The result of the password hash should be put into the internal state of the hash object.

Parameters
string$passwordPassword to hash
Exceptions
PasswordErrorIf an internal error occurs in hashing

Reimplemented from Password.

Definition at line 39 of file MWSaltedPassword.php.

References MWCryptRand\generateHex().

◆ getDefaultParams()

MWSaltedPassword::getDefaultParams ( )
protected

Return an ordered array of default parameters for this password hash.

The keys should be the parameter names and the values should be the default values. Additionally, the order of the array should be the order in which they appear in the hash.

When parsing a password hash, the constructor will split the hash based on the delimiter, and consume as many parts as it can, matching each to a parameter in this list. Once all the parameters have been filled, all remaining parts will be considered extra arguments, except, of course, for the very last part, which is the hash itself.

Returns
array

Reimplemented from ParameterizedPassword.

Definition at line 31 of file MWSaltedPassword.php.

◆ getDelimiter()

MWSaltedPassword::getDelimiter ( )
protected

Returns the delimiter for the parameters inside the hash.

Returns
string
