hash

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.2, PHP 7, PHP 8, PECL hash >= 1.1)

hash — ハッシュ値 (メッセージダイジェスト) を生成する

説明

hash(
    string $algo,
    string $data,
    bool $binary = false,
    array $options = []
): string

パラメータ

algo: 選択したアルゴリズムの名前 (例: "sha256")。サポートされているアルゴリズムの一覧は hash_algos() を参照ください。
data: ハッシュするメッセージ。
binary: true を設定すると、生のバイナリデータを出力します。 false の場合は小文字の 16 進数値となります。
options: 様々なハッシュアルゴリズム向けの、オプションの配列。現状は、MurmurHash バリアントが "seed" だけをサポートしています。

戻り値

binary が true に設定されていない場合は、メッセージダイジェストの計算結果を小文字の 16 進数値形式の文字列で返します。もし true に設定されていた場合は、メッセージダイジェストがそのままのバイナリ形式で返されます。

変更履歴

バージョン	説明
8.1.0	`options` パラメータが追加されました。
8.0.0	hash() は、 `algo` が未知の場合に、 ValueError をスローするようになりました。これより前のバージョンでは、`false` を返していました。

例

例1 hash() の例

<?php
echo hash('sha256', 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.');
?>

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.

I was curious about hashes behavior (time and length), so i ran this code (yeah, I'm cheating because i took two examples from this page)
<?php
  echo "Building data...";
  $data = "";
  for($i = 0; $i < 1500; $i++)
    $data .= sha1("H:k - $i - k:H");

  echo "OK! (".strlen($data)." bytes)".PHP_EOL;

  $res = [];

  echo "Testing hashes.....".PHP_EOL;

  foreach (hash_algos() as $algo) {
    $time = microtime(1);
    $hash = hash($algo, $data);
    $time = (microtime(1) - $time) * 1000;
    $length = strlen($hash);

    $res["$time"][] = [
      "algo"   => "HEX-$algo",
      "length" => "$length",
      "time"   => sprintf("%.8f", $time)
    ];

    $time = microtime(1);
    hash($algo, $data, 1);
    $time = (microtime(1) - $time) * 1000;

    $res["$time"][] = [
      "algo"   => "RAW-$algo",
      "length" => "$length",
      "time"   => sprintf("%.8f", $time)
    ];
  }

  ksort($res);
  $i = 0;

  echo "Results:".PHP_EOL;
  echo "Posit.      Time in ms   Type-Hash algo        Hash length".PHP_EOL;

  foreach($res as $sres){
    foreach($sres as $result){
      echo sprintf("%5d. %12s ms    %-20s %-2d bytes", $i++, $result['time'], $result['algo'], $result['length']).PHP_EOL;
    }
  }
?>

I found interesting that today (may 31, 2018), I found 103 algos, 65 more than 9 years ago (based on this comment: https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.hash.php#89574 )

Also, here is my results: https://ideone.com/embed/0iwuGn

I'm not posting here due to message length limitations.

Of the hash algorithms currently available, SHA3 was chosen by NIST from fifty-one submitted candidates and subsequently mandated by the U.S. Department of Commerce for Federal Government use.

http://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/FIPS/NIST.FIPS.202.pdf

So if you're wanting to select a hash algorithm, you can consider SHA3 to be "good enough for government work".

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.

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>';

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)

I've recently had the need to look at various hash algorithms and their values of the same string. To make my life a little easier I wrote this little script. It takes a string and runs it through all of the available hash algorithms on your server, outputting them in a clean little HTML table.

<?php
/* Get the posted value of the form if there is one */
$p = empty($_POST['p']) ? null : $_POST['p'];

    td, th {padding: 0.25em;}
    td.algo {font-weight: bold;}
    tr.on td {background: #f0f0f0;}

        <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Hash It" /></p>
    </form>
    
    <?php /* If there is a posted value use it */ ?>
    <?php if ($p): ?>
    <hr />

I haven't done any test or actual study (I'm using crc32 and storing it in mysql signed int types), but if your algorithm of choice is bigger them the supported integer of your database I suppose it is possible that the raw_format option is the best option to store directly in the database without type casting demands for it results in a binary string value.

To check if your algorithm of choice have the supported integer size in your database just strlen the raw_format output and see how many bytes it have (for example: crc32 have 4 bytes output, sha256 have 32 e md5 possue 16).

<?php 
var_dump(strlen(hash('md5', 'string to check', true))); // int(16)
?>

PS: You can always use floating points to store a very big number but for "common humans" binary types by and large are easier to check, understand and maintain, so i recommend to use binary, but if you are about speed them floating point could be your friend.

PS: remembering ... without the raw_format the returned value are hexadecimal values without the 'Hx' complement, so to transform the result into a decimal just hexdec as shown ...

<?php
var_dump(hexdec(hash('crc32b', 'string to check'))); // int(1206832624)
?>

PS: Just registering ... I have noticed here some tests where 'crc32' is slower than md5, AFAIK by definition a CRC32 algorithm (there are several algorithms to calculate CRC32) is faster than MD5 and Adler-32 is faster than CRC32 (CRC32 is more consistent than Adler-32, less consistent than MD5, but if you want to safely validate the recommended would be SHA256 or better yet SHA512 because they are less likely to collide, so less vulnerable to collision attacks)

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);

These are hash functions. Some have been designed to act as signatures for documents, while others are simply act as checks that transmitted data hasn't been damaged or otherwise modified during transmission and don't provide any cryptographic features.

Learn their differences, and use what's appropriate, because using the wrong hash function can be worse than not using one at all.
