SHA

How to use the crypto_condor.primitives.SHA module to test implementations of the SHA-1, SHA-2, and SHA-3 families of hash functions.

Supported parameters

The supported algorithms are defined by the Algorithm enum.

enum crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.Algorithm(value)

Supported hash algorithms.

Member Type:

str

Valid values are as follows:

SHA_1 = <Algorithm.SHA_1: 'SHA-1'>
SHA_224 = <Algorithm.SHA_224: 'SHA-224'>
SHA_256 = <Algorithm.SHA_256: 'SHA-256'>
SHA_384 = <Algorithm.SHA_384: 'SHA-384'>
SHA_512 = <Algorithm.SHA_512: 'SHA-512'>
SHA_512_224 = <Algorithm.SHA_512_224: 'SHA-512/224'>
SHA_512_256 = <Algorithm.SHA_512_256: 'SHA-512/256'>
SHA3_224 = <Algorithm.SHA3_224: 'SHA3-224'>
SHA3_256 = <Algorithm.SHA3_256: 'SHA3-256'>
SHA3_384 = <Algorithm.SHA3_384: 'SHA3-384'>
SHA3_512 = <Algorithm.SHA3_512: 'SHA3-512'>

Test an implementation directly

crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.test(hash_function, hash_algorithm, *, compliance=True, resilience=False)

Tests a SHA implementation.

Runs NIST test vectors on the given function. The function to test must conform to the HashFunction protocol.

Parameters:

  • hash_function (HashFunction) – The implementation to test.

  • hash_algorithm (Algorithm) – The hash algorithm implemented by hash_function.

Keyword Arguments:

  • compliance – Whether to use compliance test vectors.

  • resilience – Whether to use resilience test vectors.

Returns:

A dictionary of results.

Return type:

ResultsDict

Changed in version 2025.03.12: Removed the Orientation argument, added the compliance and resilience keywork arguments.

Deprecated since version 2025.03.12: Will be removed in a future version, use test_digest() instead.

Test the output of an implementation

crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.verify_file(filename, hash_algorithm)

Verifies SHA hashes.

Tests hashes from a file. The file must follow the format described below.

Format:

  • One set of arguments per line.

  • Lines are separated by newlines (\n).

  • Lines that start with ‘#’ are counted as comments and ignored.

  • Arguments are written in hexadecimal and separated by slashes.

  • The order of arguments is:

message/hash
Parameters:

  • filename (str) – Name of the file to test.

  • hash_algorithm (Algorithm) – Hash algorithm used to generate the hashes.

Returns:

A dictionary of results.

Return type:

ResultsDict

Changed in version 2025.03.12: Returns a ResultsDict instead of Results.

Deprecated since version 2025.03.12: Will be removed in a future version, use test_output_digest() instead.

Test a wrapper

crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.test_wrapper(wrapper, compliance, resilience)

Tests a SHA wrapper.

Calls the corresponding test_wrapper function based on the wrapper’s extension.

Parameters:

  • wrapper (Path) – A path to the wrapper to test.

  • compliance (bool) – Whether to use compliance test vectors.

  • resilience (bool) – Whether to use resilience test vectors.

Raises:

FileNotFoundError – If the wrapper is not found.

Added in version 2025.03.12: Replaces run_wrapper.

crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.test_wrapper_python(wrapper, compliance, resilience)

Tests a Python SHA wrapper.

Parameters:

  • wrapper (Path) – A path to the wrapper to test.

  • compliance (bool) – Whether to use compliance test vectors.

  • resilience (bool) – Whether to use resilience test vectors.

Added in version 2025.03.12.

Protocols

protocol crypto_condor.primitives.SHA.HashFunction

Represents a hash function.

Hash functions must behave like __call__ to be tested with this module.

Classes that implement this protocol must have the following methods / attributes:

__call__(data)

Hashes the given data.

Parameters:

data (bytes) – The input data.

Returns:

The resulting hash.

Return type:

bytes
