Max length of base64 encoded salt/password for this algorithm
Below is the snippet of code that's used to hash passwords in an app I'm rewriting:
internal string GenerateSalt()
{
byte[] buf = new byte[16];
(new RNGCryptoServiceProvider()).GetBytes(buf);
return Convert.ToBase64String(buf);
}
internal string EncodePas开发者_JS百科sword(string pass, string salt)
{
byte[] bIn = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(pass);
byte[] bSalt = Convert.FromBase64String(salt);
byte[] bAll = new byte[bSalt.Length + bIn.Length];
Buffer.BlockCopy(bSalt, 0, bAll, 0, bSalt.Length);
Buffer.BlockCopy(bIn, 0, bAll, bSalt.Length, bIn.Length);
HashAlgorithm s = HashAlgorithm.Create("SHA512");
byte[] bRet = s.ComputeHash(bAll);
return Convert.ToBase64String(bRet);
}
Hashed password and salt are later being stored in a database. What's going to be the max length of base64 encoded salt and password?
Since an SHA-512 Hash is always 512 bits = 64 bytes and base64 needs (n + 2 - ((n + 2) % 3)) / 3 * 4
bytes you will always need 88 bytes to store the data.
