Define the Magic String prefix that identifies a password as being hashed using our algorithm.
length of the SHA Password
Typedef Documentation
Function Documentation
Provide a means to SHA1 crypt/encode a plaintext password in a way which makes password file compatible with those commonly use in netscape web and ldap installations.
- Parameters:
-
clear | The plaintext password |
len | The length of the plaintext password |
out | The encrypted/encoded password |
- Note:
- SHA1 support is useful for migration purposes, but is less secure than Apache's password format, since Apache's (MD5) password format uses a random eight character salt to generate one of many possible hashes for the same password. Netscape uses plain SHA1 without a salt, so the same password will always generate the same hash, making it easier to break since the search space is smaller.
