What password encryption Hudson is using?

问题:

This is what I see in hudson/users/me/config.xml:

[...]
<hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm_-Details>
  <passwordHash>mEDUyJ:0c9e6f2556b9b3a0b9e9046c21490422b4a54877f057b527b2c0bd4dc83342d5</passwordHash>
</hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm_-Details>
[...]

What is the algorithm (if SHA1, than what is the mEDUyJ prefix)? How can I get this hash in PHP, for example?

回答1:

The source code responsible for this is found in the hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm class (more specifically, the PasswordEncoder inner class).

Consider your example:

mEDUyJ:0c9e6f2556b9b3a0b9e9046c21490422b4a54877f057b527b2c0bd4dc83342d5

The prefix (mEDUyJ) is actually a six-letter salt. A salt can be any six-letter permutation of uppercase letters and lowercase letters.

Hudson uses the Acegi Security library. More specifically, it uses that library's ShaPasswordEncoder class. It's basically doing this:

String salt = generateSomeSixLetterSalt() // Fictional function
String passwordHash = salt + ":" + new ShaPasswordEncoder(256).encodePassword(password, salt);

Once you view the source code for ShaPasswordEncoder, you find this it's essentially doing this:

// Fictional functions ahead...
String salt = generateSomeSixLetterSalt()
String passwordHash = salt + ":" + hex_encode(sha256_hash(utf8_encode(password + "{" + salt + "}")))
