MD5 Message Digest algorithm from within Perl programs. The algorithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input. Note that the MD5 algorithm is not as strong as it used to be. It has since 2005 been easy to generate different messages that produce the same MD5 digest. It still seems hard to generate messages that produce a given digest, but it is probably wise to move to stronger algorithms for applications that depend on the digest to uniquely identify a message. The C<Digest::MD5> module provide a procedural interface for simple use, as well as an object oriented interface that can handle messages of arbitrary length and which can read files directly. =head1 FUNCTIONS The following functions are provided by the C<Digest::MD5> module. None of these functions are exported by default. =over 4 =item md5($data,...) This function will concatenate all arguments, calculate the MD5 digest of this "message", and return it in binary form. The returned string will be 16 bytes long. The result of md5("a", "b", "c") will be exactly the same as the result of md5("abc"). =item md5_hex($data,...) Same as md5(), but will return the digest in hexadecimal form. The length of the returned string will be 32 and it will only contain characters from this set: '0'..'9' and 'a'..'f'. =item md5_base64($data,...) Same as md5(), but will return the digest as a base64 encoded string. The length of the returned string will be 22 and it will only contain characters from this set: 'A'..'Z', 'a'..'z', '0'..'9', '+' and '/'. Note that the base64 encoded string returned is not padded to be a multiple of 4 bytes long. If you want interoperability with other base64 encoded md5 digests you might want to append the redundant string "==" to the result. =back =head1 METHODS The object oriented interface to C<Digest::MD5> is described in this section. After a C<Digest::MD5> object has been created, you will add data to it and finally ask for the digest in a suitable format. A single object can be used to calculate multiple digests. The following methods are provided: =over 4 =item $md5 = Digest::MD5->new The constructor returns a new C<Digest::MD5> object which encapsulate the state of the MD5 message-digest algorithm. If called as an instance method (i.e. $md5->new) it will just reset the state the object to the state of a newly created object. No new object is created in this case. =item $md5->reset This is just an alias for $md5->new. =item $md5->clone This a copy of the $md5 object. It is useful when you do not want to destroy the digests state, but need an intermediate value of the digest, e.g. when calculating digests iteratively on a continuous data stream. Example: my $md5 = Digest::MD5->new; while (<>) { $md5->add($_); print "Line $.: ", $md5->clone->hexdigest, "\n"; } =item $md5->add($data,...) The $data provided as argument are appended to the message we calculate the digest for. The return value is the $md5 object itself. All these lines will have the same effect on the state of the $md5 object: $md5->add("a"); $md5->add("b"); $md5->add("c"); $md5->add("a")->add("b")->add("c"); $md5->add("a", "b", "c"); $md5->add("abc"); =item $md5->addfile($io_handle) The $io_handle will be read until EOF and its content appended to the message we calculate the digest for. The return value is the $md5 object itself. The addfile() method will croak() if it fails reading data for some reason. If it croaks it is unpredictable what the state of the $md5 object will be in. The addfile() method might have been able to read the file partially before it failed. It is probably wise to discard or reset the $md5 object if this occurs. In most cases you want to make sure that the $io_handle is in C<binmode> before you pass it as argument to the addfile() method. =item $md5->add_bits($data, $nbits) =item $md5->add_bits($bitstring) Since the MD5 algorithm is byte oriented you might only add bits as multiples of 8, so you probably want to just use add() instead. The add_bits() method is provided for compatibility with other digest implementations. See L<Digest> for description of the arguments that add_bits() take. =item $md5->digest Return the binary digest for the message. The returned string will be 16 bytes long. Note that the C<digest> operation is effectively a destructive, read-once operation. Once it has been performed, the C<Digest::MD5> object is automatically C<reset> and can be used to calculate another digest value. Call $md5->clone->digest if you want to calculate the digest without resetting the digest state. =item $md5->hexdigest Same as $md5->digest, but will return the digest in hexadecimal form. The length of the returned string will be 32 and it will only contain characters from this set: '0'..'9' and 'a'..'f'. =item $md5->b64digest Same as $md5->digest, but will return the digest as a base64 encoded string. The length of the returned string will be 22 and it will only contain characters from this set: 'A'..'Z', 'a'..'z', '0'..'9', '+' and '/'. The base64 encoded string returned is not padded to be a multiple of 4 bytes long. If you want interoperability with other base64 encoded md5 digests you might want to append the string "==" to the result. =item @ctx = $md5->context =item $md5->context(@ctx) Saves or restores the internal state. When called with no arguments, returns a 3-element list: number of blocks processed, a 16-byte internal state buffer, then up to 63 bytes of unprocessed data. When passed those same arguments, restores the state. This is only useful for specialised operations. =back =head1 EXAMPLES The simplest way to use this library is to import the md5_hex() function (or one of its cousins): use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex); print "Digest is ", md5_hex("foobarbaz"), "\n"; The above example would print out the message: Digest is 6df23dc03f9b54cc38a0fc1483df6e21 The same checksum can also be calculated in OO style: use Digest::MD5; $md5 = Digest::MD5->new; $md5->add('foo', 'bar'); $md5->add('baz'); $digest = $md5->hexdigest; print "Digest is $digest\n"; With OO style, you can break the message arbitrarily. This means that we are no longer limited to have space for the whole message in memory, i.e. we can handle messages of any size. This is useful when calculating checksum for files: use Digest::MD5; my $filename = shift || "/etc/passwd"; open (my $fh, '<', $filename) or die "Can't open '$filename': $!"; binmode($fh); $md5 = Digest::MD5->new; while (<$fh>) { $md5->add($_); } close($fh); print $md5->b64digest, " $filename\n"; Or we can use the addfile method for more efficient reading of the file: use Digest::MD5; my $filename = shift || "/etc/passwd"; open (my $fh, '<', $filename) or die "Can't open '$filename': $!"; binmode ($fh); print Digest::MD5->new->addfile($fh)->hexdigest, " $filename\n"; Since the MD5 algorithm is only defined for strings of bytes, it can not be used on strings that contains chars with ordinal number above 255 (Unicode strings). The MD5 functions and methods will croak if you try to feed them such input data: use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex); my $str = "abc\x{300}"; print md5_hex($str), "\n"; # croaks # Wide character in subroutine entry What you can do is calculate the MD5 checksum of the UTF-8 representation of such strings. This is achieved by filtering the string through encode_utf8() function: use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_hex); use Encode qw(encode_utf8); my $str = "abc\x{300}"; print md5_hex(encode_utf8($str)), "\n"; # 8c2d46911f3f5a326455f0ed7a8ed3b3 =head1 SEE ALSO L<Digest>, L<Digest::MD2>, L<Digest::SHA>, L<Digest::HMAC> L<md5sum(1)> RFC 1321 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5 The paper "How to Break MD5 and Other Hash Functions" by Xiaoyun Wang and Hongbo Yu. =head1 COPYRIGHT This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
