Add scrypt to the options #56

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Can you add scrypt to the options? scrypt is a key derivation function, which 
is designed to be far more secure against hardware brute-force attacks than 
PBKDF2 or bcrypt.

This will be a very good addition for password hashing, because of GPU 
brute-force techniques, the default hashes aren't that secure anymore.

For details, you can look at: http://www.tarsnap.com/scrypt.html
and: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrypt

Scrypt would be very interesting...

Here's an scrypt implementation against the 3.x branch, r666. It uses the 
asm.js style and typed arrays in order to be fast enough to make it practical 
to use parameter values that can defend against hardware brute-force attacks.

Thanks Jeffrey for your scrypt implementation. I was interested as a 
replacement for js-scrypt (https://github.com/tonyg/js-scrypt) since it doesn't 
work properly in Safari. However, your implementation seems to have the same 
problem (tested on Safari on iPad iOS 7). Did you encounter the same issue?

I haven't tested on iOS at all. The new test passes on MacOS Safari 7.0.3. Do 
you know what error iOS Safari gives?

No error from Safari on iOS, but invalid output. I put a test page on my web 
site for you to reproduce: http://jboivin.free.fr/sbcloud/test.html
I attached result output from Safari for iPad 2 iOS 7.1 (11D167).

However, it seems that only the first test passes successfully: 
check("", "", 16, 1, 1, 
"77d6576238657b203b19ca42c18a0497f16b4844e3074ae8dfdffa3fede21442fcd0069ded0948f

I performed further tests, and it seems to be a regression of Safari on iOS 7. 
SCrypt is working fine (but extremely slowly) on my iPhone 3GS with iOS 6, and 
on iPad with Mercury Browser. However, it is quite unusable with cost parameter 
> 1024, due to Apple javascript engine limitation in 3rd party browsers :-(
Working fine on Android devices I tested on, including Google Nexus 5.

Here is a small fix for Math.imul not implemented on IE 11.
