Struct InvalidHash 

pub struct InvalidHash;

Error returned by verify when the supplied hash string is not a well-formed SHA512-crypt ($6$…$…) value.

This is distinct from a simple password mismatch: a mismatch is reported as Ok(false), while a malformed hash is reported as Err(InvalidHash).

Distinguishing these cases is particularly useful when a credential store contains hashes from multiple algorithms (e.g. a legacy table holding a mix of $1$ MD5-crypt, $2y$ bcrypt, $5$ SHA256-crypt, and $6$ SHA512-crypt entries, or rows migrated from another system). Err(InvalidHash) lets the caller route the request to a different verifier — or surface data corruption — rather than treating a non-$6$ hash as a failed authentication attempt.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for InvalidHash

fn clone(&self) -> InvalidHash

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for InvalidHash

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for InvalidHash

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Error for InvalidHash

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0:

use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0:

replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

fn provide<'a>(&'a self, request: &mut Request<'a>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (error_generic_member_access)

Provides type-based access to context intended for error reports.

impl Hash for InvalidHash

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for InvalidHash

fn eq(&self, other: &InvalidHash) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
