### Implementations

Hash functions:

- `sha256()`: receive & return `Uint8Array`
- `sha256.create().update(a).update(b).digest()`: support partial updates
- `blake3.create({ context: 'e', dkLen: 32 })`: sometimes have options
- support little-endian architecture; also experimentally big-endian
- can hash up to 4GB per chunk, with any amount of chunks

#### sha2: sha256, sha384, sha512 and others

for (let hash of [sha256, sha384, sha512, sha224, sha512_224, sha512_256]) {
  const arr = Uint8Array.from([0x10, 0x20, 0x30]);

- Blake1 is legacy hash, one of SHA3 proposals. It is rarely used anywhere. See [pdf](https://www.aumasson.jp/blake/blake.pdf).
- Blake2 is popular fast hash. blake2b focuses on 64-bit platforms while blake2s is for 8-bit to 32-bit ones. See [RFC 7693](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7693), [Website](https://www.blake2.net)
- Blake3 is faster, reduced-round blake2. See [Website & specs](https://blake3.io)

#### legacy: sha1, md5, ripemd160

SHA1 (RFC 3174), MD5 (RFC 1321) and RIPEMD160 (RFC 2286) legacy, weak hash functions.
Don't use them in a new protocol. What "weak" means:

- Collisions can be made with 2^18 effort in MD5, 2^60 in SHA1, 2^80 in RIPEMD160.
- No practical pre-image attacks (only theoretical, 2^123.4)
- HMAC seems kinda ok: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6151

```typescript
import { md5, ripemd160, sha1 } from '@noble/hashes/legacy.js';
for (let hash of [md5, ripemd160, sha1]) {
  const arr = Uint8Array.from([0x10, 0x20, 0x30]);
  const a = hash(arr);
  const b = hash.create().update(arr).digest();
}
```

#### hmac

```typescript
import { hmac } from '@noble/hashes/hmac.js';
import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha2.js';
const key = new Uint8Array(32).fill(1);
const msg = new Uint8Array(32).fill(2);
const mac1 = hmac(sha256, key, msg);
const mac2 = hmac.create(sha256, key).update(msg).digest();
```

Matches [RFC 2104](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2104).

#### hkdf

```typescript
import { hkdf } from '@noble/hashes/hkdf.js';
import { randomBytes } from '@noble/hashes/utils.js';
import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha2.js';
const inputKey = randomBytes(32);
const salt = randomBytes(32);
const info = 'application-key';
const hk1 = hkdf(sha256, inputKey, salt, info, 32);

// == same as
import { extract, expand } from '@noble/hashes/hkdf.js';
import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha2.js';
const prk = extract(sha256, inputKey, salt);
const hk2 = expand(sha256, prk, info, 32);
```

Matches [RFC 5869](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5869).

#### pbkdf2

```typescript
import { pbkdf2, pbkdf2Async } from '@noble/hashes/pbkdf2.js';
import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha2.js';
const pbkey1 = pbkdf2(sha256, 'password', 'salt', { c: 32, dkLen: 32 });
const pbkey2 = await pbkdf2Async(sha256, 'password', 'salt', { c: 32, dkLen: 32 });
const pbkey3 = await pbkdf2Async(sha256, Uint8Array.from([1, 2, 3]), Uint8Array.from([4, 5, 6]), {
  c: 32,
  dkLen: 32,
});
```

Matches [RFC 2898](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2898).

#### scrypt

```typescript
import { scrypt, scryptAsync } from '@noble/hashes/scrypt.js';
const scr1 = scrypt('password', 'salt', { N: 2 ** 16, r: 8, p: 1, dkLen: 32 });
const scr2 = await scryptAsync('password', 'salt', { N: 2 ** 16, r: 8, p: 1, dkLen: 32 });
const scr3 = await scryptAsync(Uint8Array.from([1, 2, 3]), Uint8Array.from([4, 5, 6]), {
  N: 2 ** 17,
  r: 8,
  p: 1,
  dkLen: 32,
  onProgress(percentage) {
    console.log('progress', percentage);
  },
  maxmem: 2 ** 32 + 128 * 8 * 1, // N * r * p * 128 + (128*r*p)
});
```

Conforms to [RFC 7914](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7914),
[Website](https://www.tarsnap.com/scrypt.html)

- `N, r, p` are work factors. To understand them, see [the blog post](https://blog.filippo.io/the-scrypt-parameters/).
  `r: 8, p: 1` are common. JS doesn't support parallelization, making increasing p meaningless.
- `dkLen` is the length of output bytes e.g. `32` or `64`
- `onProgress` can be used with async version of the function to report progress to a user.
- `maxmem` prevents DoS and is limited to `1GB + 1KB` (`2**30 + 2**10`), but can be adjusted using formula: `N * r * p * 128 + (128 * r * p)`

Time it takes to derive Scrypt key under different values of N (2\*\*N) on Apple M4 (mobile phones can be 1x-4x slower):

| N pow | Time | RAM   |
| ----- | ---- | ----- |
| 16    | 0.1s | 64MB  |
| 17    | 0.2s | 128MB |
| 18    | 0.4s | 256MB |
| 19    | 0.8s | 512MB |
| 20    | 1.5s | 1GB   |
| 21    | 3.1s | 2GB   |
| 22    | 6.2s | 4GB   |
| 23    | 13s  | 8GB   |
| 24    | 27s  | 16GB  |

> [!NOTE]
> We support N larger than `2**20` where available, however,
> not all JS engines support >= 2GB ArrayBuffer-s.
> When using such N, you'll need to manually adjust `maxmem`, using formula above.
> Other JS implementations don't support large N-s.

#### argon2

```ts
import { argon2d, argon2i, argon2id } from '@noble/hashes/argon2.js';
const arg1 = argon2id('password', 'saltsalt', { t: 2, m: 65536, p: 1, maxmem: 2 ** 32 - 1 });
```

Argon2 [RFC 9106](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9106) implementation.

> [!WARNING]
> Argon2 can't be fast in JS, because there is no fast Uint64Array.
> It is suggested to use [Scrypt](#scrypt) instead.
> Being 5x slower than native code means brute-forcing attackers have bigger advantage.

#### utils

```typescript
import { bytesToHex as toHex, randomBytes } from '@noble/hashes/utils';
console.log(toHex(randomBytes(32)));
```

- `bytesToHex` will convert `Uint8Array` to a hex string
- `randomBytes(bytes)` will produce cryptographically secure random `Uint8Array` of length `bytes`

## Security

The library has been independently audited:

- at version 1.0.0, in Jan 2022, by [Cure53](https://cure53.de)
  - PDFs: [website](https://cure53.de/pentest-report_hashing-libs.pdf), [in-repo](./audit/2022-01-05-cure53-audit-nbl2.pdf)
  - [Changes since audit](https://github.com/paulmillr/noble-hashes/compare/1.0.0..main).
  - Scope: everything, besides `blake3`, `sha3-addons`, `sha1` and `argon2`, which have not been audited
  - The audit has been funded by [Ethereum Foundation](https://ethereum.org/en/) with help of [Nomic Labs](https://nomiclabs.io)

It is tested against property-based, cross-library and Wycheproof vectors,
and is being fuzzed in [the separate repo](https://github.com/paulmillr/fuzzing).

If you see anything unusual: investigate and report.

### Constant-timeness

We're targetting algorithmic constant time. _JIT-compiler_ and _Garbage Collector_ make "constant time"
extremely hard to achieve [timing attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timing_attack) resistance
in a scripting language. Which means _any other JS library can't have
constant-timeness_. Even statically typed Rust, a language without GC,
[makes it harder to achieve constant-time](https://www.chosenplaintext.ca/open-source/rust-timing-shield/security)
for some cases. If your goal is absolute security, don't use any JS lib — including bindings to native ones.
Use low-level libraries & languages.

### Memory dumping

The library shares state buffers between hash
function calls. The buffers are zeroed-out after each call. However, if an attacker
can read application memory, you are doomed in any case:

- At some point, input will be a string and strings are immutable in JS:
  there is no way to overwrite them with zeros. For example: deriving
  key from `scrypt(password, salt)` where password and salt are strings
- Input from a file will stay in file buffers
- Input / output will be re-used multiple times in application which means it could stay in memory
- `await anything()` will always write all internal variables (including numbers)
  to memory. With async functions / Promises there are no guarantees when the code
  chunk would be executed. Which means attacker can have plenty of time to read data from memory
- There is no way to guarantee anything about zeroing sensitive data without
  complex tests-suite which will dump process memory and verify that there is
  no sensitive data left. For JS it means testing all browsers (incl. mobile),
  which is complex. And of course it will be useless without using the same
  test-suite in the actual application that consumes the library

### Supply chain security

- **Commits** are signed with PGP keys, to prevent forgery. Make sure to verify commit signatures
- **Releases** are transparent and built on GitHub CI. Make sure to verify [provenance](https://docs.npmjs.com/generating-provenance-statements) logs
  - Use GitHub CLI to verify single-file builds:
    `gh attestation verify --owner paulmillr noble-hashes.js`
- **Rare releasing** is followed to ensure less re-audit need for end-users
- **Dependencies** are minimized and locked-down: any dependency could get hacked and users will be downloading malware with every install.
  - We make sure to use as few dependencies as possible
  - Automatic dep updates are prevented by locking-down version ranges; diffs are checked with `npm-diff`
- **Dev Dependencies** are disabled for end-users; they are only used to develop / build the source code

For this package, there are 0 dependencies; and a few dev dependencies:

- micro-bmark, micro-should and jsbt are used for benchmarking / testing / build tooling and developed by the same author
- prettier, fast-check and typescript are used for code quality / test generation / ts compilation. It's hard to audit their source code thoroughly and fully because of their size

### Randomness

We're deferring to built-in
[crypto.getRandomValues](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Crypto/getRandomValues)
which is considered cryptographically secure (CSPRNG).

In the past, browsers had bugs that made it weak: it may happen again.
Implementing a userspace CSPRNG to get resilient to the weakness
is even worse: there is no reliable userspace source of quality entropy.

### Quantum computers

Cryptographically relevant quantum computer, if built, will allow to
utilize Grover's algorithm to break hashes in 2^n/2 operations, instead of 2^n.

This means SHA256 should be replaced with SHA512, SHA3-256 with SHA3-512, SHAKE128 with SHAKE256 etc.

Australian ASD prohibits SHA256 and similar hashes [after 2030](https://www.cyber.gov.au/resources-business-and-government/essential-cyber-security/ism/cyber-security-guidelines/guidelines-cryptography).

```

It is possible to [make this library 4x+ faster](./benchmark/README.md) by
_doing code generation of full loop unrolls_. We've decided against it. Reasons:

- the library must be auditable, with minimum amount of code, and zero dependencies
- most method invocations with the lib are going to be something like hashing 32b to 64kb of data
- hashing big inputs is 10x faster with low-level languages, which means you should probably pick 'em instead

The current performance is good enough when compared to other projects; SHA256 takes only 900 nanoseconds to run.

## Contributing & testing

`test/misc` directory contains implementations of loop unrolling and md5.

- `npm install && npm run build && npm test` will build the code and run tests.
- `npm run lint` / `npm run format` will run linter / fix linter issues.
- `npm run bench` will run benchmarks, which may need their deps first (`npm run bench:install`)
- `npm run build:release` will build single file
- There is **additional** 20-min DoS test `npm run test:dos` and 2-hour "big" multicore test `npm run test:big`.
  See [our approach to testing](./test/README.md)
