Title: [Module] Improved Hashing
Post by: stormeus on July 23, 2013, 01:38:20 am

This is a release I had on the LU forum that I just never got around to posting here.

---

Stormeus' Improved Hashing ( lu_hashing2 )

This module is an improvement and a variant of Liberty Unleashed's lu_hashing module, which ships with the server. This version offers a wider variety of hashing functions which are more secure, while still offering backward-compatibility by allowing the use of the SHA1 and (insecure!!) MD5 algorithms.

Functions
Acceptable for password hashing and storage

• SHA224( szString )
• SHA256( szString )
• SHA384( szString )
• SHA512( szString )
• RIPEMD128( szString )
• RIPEMD160( szString )
• RIPEMD256( szString )
• RIPEMD320( szString )
• WHIRLPOOL( szString )

NOT acceptable for password hashing and storage.

• SHA1( szString )
  
  Algorithmically weak and contains weaknesses that make it relatively easy to crack. This function is only provided for backwards-compatibility. If you are creating a new script, DO NOT USE THIS.
  
  
• MD5( szString )
  
  MD5 has flaws in its algorithm that allows it to be broken relatively easily. This function is only provided for backwards-compatibility. If you are creating a new script, DO NOT USE THIS.
  
  
• base64_encode( szString )
  base64_decode( szString )
  
  base64 is easily encoded and decoded. Storing passwords with base64 is not recommended ever because it is extremely easy to reverse.

Installation
Extract lu_hashing2.dll/so to your Modules folder. Place this line of code somewhere in onScriptLoad:
     LoadModule( "lu_hashing2" );

admins just check once if stormeus posted a thing like this before because the same thing happened at the oher squirrel forum at vcmp.liberty-unleashed.co.uk

The irony here is delicious.
