Hash-based message authentication codes (HMAC)
|
|
==============================================
|
|
|
|
.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hmac
|
|
|
|
.. testsetup::
|
|
|
|
import binascii
|
|
key = binascii.unhexlify(b"0" * 32)
|
|
|
|
Hash-based message authentication codes (or HMACs) are a tool for calculating
|
|
message authentication codes using a cryptographic hash function coupled with a
|
|
secret key. You can use an HMAC to verify both the integrity and authenticity
|
|
of a message.
|
|
|
|
.. class:: HMAC(key, algorithm, backend)
|
|
|
|
HMAC objects take a ``key`` and a
|
|
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hashes.HashAlgorithm` instance.
|
|
The ``key`` should be :doc:`randomly generated bytes </random-numbers>` and
|
|
is recommended to be equal in length to the ``digest_size`` of the hash
|
|
function chosen. You must keep the ``key`` secret.
|
|
|
|
This is an implementation of :rfc:`2104`.
|
|
|
|
.. doctest::
|
|
|
|
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.backends import default_backend
|
|
>>> from cryptography.hazmat.primitives import hashes, hmac
|
|
>>> h = hmac.HMAC(key, hashes.SHA256(), backend=default_backend())
|
|
>>> h.update(b"message to hash")
|
|
>>> h.finalize()
|
|
b'#F\xdaI\x8b"e\xc4\xf1\xbb\x9a\x8fc\xff\xf5\xdex.\xbc\xcd/+\x8a\x86\x1d\x84\'\xc3\xa6\x1d\xd8J'
|
|
|
|
If the backend doesn't support the requested ``algorithm`` an
|
|
:class:`~cryptography.exceptions.UnsupportedAlgorithm` exception will be
|
|
raised.
|
|
|
|
If ``algorithm`` isn't a
|
|
:class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.hashes.HashAlgorithm` instance
|
|
then ``TypeError`` will be raised.
|
|
|
|
To check that a given signature is correct use the :meth:`verify` method.
|
|
You will receive an exception if the signature is wrong:
|
|
|
|
.. doctest::
|
|
|
|
>>> h = hmac.HMAC(key, hashes.SHA256(), backend=default_backend())
|
|
>>> h.update(b"message to hash")
|
|
>>> h.verify(b"an incorrect signature")
|
|

|

:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``msg`` is not ``bytes``.
|
|
|
|
.. method:: copy()
|
|
|
|
Copy this :class:`HMAC` instance, usually so that we may call
|
|
:meth:`finalize` to get an intermediate digest value while we continue
|
|
to call :meth:`update` on the original instance.
|
|
|
|
:return: A new instance of :class:`HMAC` that can be updated
|
|
and finalized independently of the original instance.
|
|
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: See :meth:`finalize`
|
|
|
|
.. method:: verify(signature)
|
|
|
|
Finalize the current context and securely compare digest to
|
|
``signature``.
|
|
|
|
:param bytes signature: The bytes to compare the current digest
|
|
against.
|
|
:raises cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized: See :meth:`finalize`
|
|
:raises cryptography.exceptions.InvalidSignature: If signature does not
|
|
match digest
|
|
:raises TypeError: This exception is raised if ``signature`` is not
|
|
``bytes``.
|
|
|
|
.. method:: finalize()
|
|
|
|
Finalize the current context and return the message digest as bytes.
|
|
|
|
After ``finalize`` has been called this object can no longer be used
|
|
and :meth:`update`, :meth:`copy`, :meth:`verify` and :meth:`finalize`
|
|
will raise an :class:`~cryptography.exceptions.AlreadyFinalized`
|
|
exception.
|
|
|
|
:return bytes: The message digest as bytes.
