Struct PasswordHash

pub struct PasswordHash { /* private fields */ }

A versionned password hash. Can be used to validate a password without storing the password.

Implementations

impl PasswordHash

pub fn verify_password(&self, password: &[u8]) -> bool

Verify if the PasswordHash matches with the specified password. Should execute in constant time.

Arguments

• password - The password to verify.

Returns

Returns true if the password matches and false if it doesn’t.

Example

use devolutions_crypto::password_hash::{hash_password, PasswordHashVersion};

let password = b"somesuperstrongpa$$w0rd!";

let hashed_password = hash_password(password, 10000, PasswordHashVersion::Latest);
assert!(hashed_password.verify_password(b"somesuperstrongpa$$w0rd!"));
assert!(!hashed_password.verify_password(b"someweakpa$$w0rd!"));
