I think I remember seeing an article where some researchers use the Amazon Cloud to "crack" some SHA-1 hashes very quickly. If you or your readers are using the hash function to store passwords then you might want to look into some of the following suggestions.
#MD5 ENCODING IN SQL HOW TO#
The following example shows how to do it: For using assemblies in T-SQL, we must create assembly object in SQL Server database. Now we should create a stored procedure on the SQL Server side.result - SqlString pass-by-reference data type parameter which stored procedure returning through an OUTPUT argument.value – SqlString data type parameter which hash-code we need to return.Method “ HashString” takes two arguments: By this attribute, we define that our method will be used like a stored procedure. This class has only one method “ HashString” marked with attribute. All parameters must be declared according to SQL Server data types (see MSDN article (v=SQL.90).aspx).

#MD5 ENCODING IN SQL CODE#
What you need to do to your code to have the base64 version of the hashed string, change the initial code as follows (the change is marked in bold): Results below show the same hashing console giving base 64 strings too: If you convert it to a base 64 string instead of just the MD5 hash, it looks a lot tidier. I have created a little console with the hashing code in it to give some examples.
#MD5 ENCODING IN SQL PASSWORD#
Your password text looks ok - however its reminded me of something. ) VALUES is only the first step to take to prevent SQL injection. The stored procedure should look something like this: USE ĬREATE PROCEDURE VARCHAR(50), - put the right data types in here that match your VARCHAR(50) You will need a stored procedure on the database to be able to do this. Replace where it says "Column1Name" etc with the actual column names from your database. encoding 8 string hashedPassword encoding. Using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("spInsertRegistration", con))Ĭommand.CommandType = Textbox9.Text) You are calling the ToString() method of the byte array - what you need to do instead is use the encoding classes to extract the string from the array. Using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) HashedBytes = md5.ComputeHash(encoder.GetBytes(TextBo圆.Text)) UTF8Encoding encoder = new UTF8Encoding() The code in your class should read: MD5CryptoServiceProvider md5 = new MD5CryptoServiceProvider()
