12 use PBKDF2::Tiny qw/derive verify/;
13
14 my $dk = derive( 'SHA-1', $pass, $salt, $iters );
15
16 if ( verify( $dk, 'SHA-1', $pass, $salt, $iters ) ) {
17 # password is correct
18 }
19
21 This module provides an RFC 2898 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2898>
22 compliant PBKDF2 implementation using HMAC-SHA1 or HMAC-SHA2 in under
23 100 lines of code. If you are using Perl 5.10 or later, it uses only
24 core Perl modules. If you are on an earlier version of Perl, you need
25 Digest::SHA or Digest::SHA::PurePerl.
26
27 All documented functions are optionally exported. No functions are
28 exported by default.
29
31 derive
32 $dk = derive( $type, $password, $salt, $iterations, $dk_length )
33
34 The "derive" function outputs a binary string with the derived key.
35 The first argument indicates the digest function to use. It must be
36 one of: SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512.
37
38 If a password or salt are not provided, they default to the empty
39 string, so don't do that! RFC 2898 recommends
40 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2898#section-4.1> a random salt of at
41 least 8 octets. If you need a cryptographically strong salt, consider
42 Crypt::URandom.
43
44 The password and salt should encoded as octet strings. If not (i.e. if
45 Perl's internal 'UTF8' flag is on), then an exception will be thrown.
46
47 The number of iterations defaults to 1000 if not provided. If the
48 derived key length is not provided, it defaults to the output size of
49 the digest function.
50
51 derive_hex
52 Works just like "derive" but outputs a hex string.
53
54 verify
55 $bool = verify( $dk, $type, $password, $salt, $iterations, $dk_length );
56
57 The "verify" function checks that a given derived key (in binary form)
58 matches the password and other parameters provided using a constant-
59 time comparison function.
60
61 The first parameter is the derived key to check. The remaining
62 parameters are the same as for "derive".
63
64 verify_hex
65 Works just like "verify" but the derived key must be a hex string
66 (without a leading "0x").
67
68 digest_fcn
69 ($fcn, $block_size, $digest_length) = digest_fcn('SHA-1');
70 $digest = $fcn->($data);
71
72 This function is used internally by PBKDF2::Tiny, but made available in
73 case it's useful to someone.
74
75 Given one of the valid digest types, it returns a function reference
76 that digests a string of data. It also returns block size and digest
77 length for that digest type.
78
79 hmac
80 $key = $digest_fcn->($key) if length($key) > $block_size;
81 $hmac = hmac( $data, $key, $digest_fcn, $block_size );
82
83 This function is used internally by PBKDF2::Tiny, but made available in
84 case it's useful to someone.
85
86 The first two arguments are the data and key inputs to the HMAC
87 function. Both should be encoded as octet strings, as underlying
88 HMAC/digest functions may croak or may give unexpected results if
89 Perl's internal UTF-8 flag is on.
90
91 Note: if the key is longer than the digest block size, it must be
92 preprocessed using the digesting function.
93
94 The third and fourth arguments must be a digesting code reference (from
95 "digest_fcn") and block size.
