Constant-Time Encoding

Build Status

Based on the constant-time base64 implementation made by Steve "Sc00bz" Thomas, this library aims to offer character encoding functions that do not leak information about what you are encoding/decoding via processor cache misses. Further reading on cache-timing attacks.

Our fork offers the following enchancements:

  • mbstring.func_overload resistance
  • Unit tests
  • Composer- and Packagist-ready
  • Base16 encoding
  • Base32 encoding
  • Uses pack() and unpack() instead of chr() and ord()

PHP Version Requirements

This library should work on any supported version of PHP. It may work on earlier versions, but we do not guarantee it. If it doesn't, we will not fix it to work on earlier versions of PHP.

How to Install

composer require paragonie/constant_time_encoding

How to Use

use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Encoding;

// possibly (if applicable): 
// require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$data = random_bytes(32);
echo Encoding::base64Encode($data), "\n";
echo Encoding::base32EncodeUpper($data), "\n";
echo Encoding::base32Encode($data), "\n";
echo Encoding::hexEncode($data), "\n";
echo Encoding::hexEncodeUpper($data), "\n";

Example output:

If you only need a particular variant, you can just reference the required class like so:

use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Base64;
use \ParagonIE\ConstantTime\Base32;

$data = random_bytes(32);
echo Base64::encode($data), "\n";
echo Base32::encode($data), "\n";

Example output:
