What's the best alternative to the Md5 algorithm for PHP for encrypting user data like passwords and other secure data, stored in MySQL databases? SHA512 is not a terrible choice. But it won't be long before it is cracked for most lengths of passwords. Take

Something in the back of my head is telling me I'm missing something obvious here. I'm integrating an existing java project with a third-party api that uses an md5 hash of an api key for authentication. It's not working for me, and during debugging I realized that the hashes I'm generating don't match the examples that they've supplied. I've found some websites that create MD5 hashes from strings to check their examples, and as far as I can tell I'm wrong and they're right. for example, according to this website , the string "hello" generates a hash of "5d41402abc4b2a76b9719d911017c592". (FWIW

I am writing a Python script to index a large set of Windows installers into a DB. I would like top know how to read the metadata information (Company, Product Name, Version, etc) from EXE, MSI and ZIP files using Python running on Linux. Software I am using Python 2.6.5 on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit with Django 1.2.1. Found so far: Windows command line utilities that can extract EXE metadata (like filever from SysUtils), or other individual CL utils that only work in Windows. I've tried running these through Wine but they have problems and it hasn't been worth the work to go and find the libs and

how I can calculate MD5 hash for a file that is open or used by a process? the files can be txt or and exe my current code return error for an exe because it is running here is my current code public static string GetMd5HashFromFile(string fileName) { FileStream file = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open); MD5 md5 = new MD5CryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] retVal = md5.ComputeHash(file); file.Close(); StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); for (int i = 0; i < retVal.Length; i++) { sb.Append(retVal[i].ToString("x2")); } return sb.ToString(); } Cheers. Try opening the file as read-only:

I need generate a single hash over some data in a table CREATE TABLE Table1 ( F1 INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, F2 INT default NULL, F3 Varchar(50) default NULL, .. FN INT default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (F1) ); i.e. F1, F3,FN where F2=10 SELECT md5(CONCAT_WS('#',F1,F3,FN)) FROM Tabe1 WHERE F2=10 Gives a Hash for each row in the table. QUESTIONS 1) How do get a single hash over the whole table? 2) What is the fasts hashing algorithm to use MD5, SHA1, SHA or any other? EDIT: Mysql 4.1 is been used - and it does NOT have Trigger Support 1) SELECT MD5( GROUP_CONCAT( CONCAT_WS('#',F1,F3,FN)

This question already has an answer here: TSQL md5 hash different to C# .NET md5 4 answers I have a table in SQL Server 2008 R2 that contain two field (WordHash, Word). This Hash field generated in C# and I need regenerate hash code for Word field in sql server. But my problem is that generated MD5 hash in sql server and C# are different. I found below code to resolve this problem but still I have same problem. SQL code: CONVERT(NVARCHAR(32),HASHBYTES('MD5', 'some word'), 2) After putting this code block to my query, I saw some wired result! This is my result: My Query: SELECT [WordHash],

I have a a directory with a structure like so: . ├── Test.txt ├── Test1 │ ├── Test1.txt │ ├── Test1_copy.txt │ └── Test1a │ ├── Test1a.txt │ └── Test1a_copy.txt └── Test2 ├── Test2.txt ├── Test2_copy.txt └── Test2a ├── Test2a.txt └── Test2a_copy.txt I would like to create a bash script that makes a md5 checksum of every file in this directory. I want to be able to type the script name in the CLI and then the path to the directory I want to hash and have it work. I'm sure there are many ways to accomplish this. Currently I have: #!/bin/bash for file in "$1" ; do md5 >> "${1}__checksums.md5"
