sha1 hash from as3crypto differs from the one made with PHP

Make SHA1 hash from string '12345' with as3crypto in as3 the same way how it is done in there example:

var sha1:SHA1 = new SHA1;
var src:ByteArray = Hex.toArray("12345");
var digest:Byt开发者_StackOverflow中文版eArray = sha1.hash(src);
trace('SHA:' + Hex.fromArray(digest));

result : ec60c0fd70d82a7785f6c9a02dbe16f2e40b1344

Make SHA1 from the same string in PHP:

print "SHA:".sha1("12345");

result : 8cb2237d0679ca88db6464eac60da96345513964

If I try other tools to obtain hash I get the second result, so it looks like the result from PHP is correct.

Question: How can I get the same hash with as3crypto?

BTW: when testing I found that another way with as3crypto gives me another (wrong?) result:

var src:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
src.writeUTF("12345");
var digest:ByteArray = sha1.hash(src);
trace('SHA:' + Hex.fromArray(digest));

result : b98cfbc53daec4029895585ab198f7403d0d0506

The hexadecimal (you're converting it with Hex.toArray) value of 12345 is not the same as the string "12345".

You are converting a decimal number to a hexadecimal byte array and hashing it, and then comparing it to a hash of a string generated in PHP. These will never match.

If you absolutely need to compare two hex number together then a change to your PHP like this should probably work.

print "SHA:" . sha1(dechex(12345));

See the dechex PHP documentation for more.

The correct way to match a php sha1 using as3crypto lib is to do the following:

var src:ByteArray = Hex.toArray(Hex.fromString(srcString));
var sha1:SHA1 = new SHA1();
var hashedString:String = Hex.fromArray(sha1.hash( src ));

The first additional Hex.fromString avoids your decimal conversion as others have mentioned.

Note: The as3corelib version is much simpler: as3corelib SHA1

var hashedString:String = SHA1.hash( srcString );

The PHP output is definitely correct. I tested it against MySQL's sha1 function:

mysql> select sha1('12345');
+------------------------------------------+
| sha1('12345')                            |
+------------------------------------------+
| 8cb2237d0679ca88db6464eac60da96345513964 |
+------------------------------------------+

The likely culprit is this - you're using Hex.toArray() on the input data in this line:

var src:ByteArray = Hex.toArray("12345");

When you need the original string to be in the byte array. I don't know AS3, though, so can't answer why your second attempt also failed.

var sha1:SHA1 = new SHA1(); 
var src:ByteArray = new ByteArray(); 
src.writeUTFBytes("12345"); 
trace( Hex.fromArray( sha1.hash( src ) ) );

using writeUTFBytes, this method write the string into bytesarray object without BOM.
