PHP - Add Php Password Encryption To Login Class
(Main Objective)
I need this login class to encrypt the password before it sends it to the database for login verification. (Alternative Solution) Force a login with just the username and captcha no password.. This is the original working script.. <? session_start(); include "config.php"; global $c; include "data.php"; global $config; require('funciones.php'); if ($_POST['username']) { session_start(); if($_POST['code']!=$_SESSION['string']){ header("Location: login.php?error=1"); } //Comprobacion del envio del nombre de usuario y password $username=uc($_POST['username']); $password=uc($_POST['password']); if ($password==NULL) { header("Location: login.php?error=2"); }else{ $query = mysql_query("SELECT username,password FROM tb_users WHERE username = '$username'") or die(mysql_error()); if(mysql_num_rows($query) == 0) { header("Location: login.php?error=3"); } else { $data = mysql_fetch_array($query); if($data['password'] != $password) { header("Location: login.php?error=4"); }else{ $query = mysql_query("SELECT username,password FROM tb_users WHERE username = '$username'") or die(mysql_error()); $row = mysql_fetch_array($query); $nicke=$row['username']; $passe=$row['password']; //90 day cookie setcookie("usNick",$nicke,time()+7776000); setcookie("usPass",$passe,time()+7776000); $lastlogdate=time(); $lastip = getRealIP(); $querybt = "UPDATE tb_users SET lastlogdate='$lastlogdate', lastiplog='$lastip' WHERE username='$nicke'"; mysql_query($querybt) or die(mysql_error()); header("Location: members.php"); // echo "Has sido logueado correctamente ".$_SESSION['s_username']." y puedes acceder al index.php."; // echo "<script>location.href='index.php';</script>"; ?> <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="0;URL=members.php"> <? } } } } ?> <div class="heading">Login</div><br /> <? if($_GET['error'] == 1) { print "<b>Error</b> - Wrong Captcha Code<br /><br/>"; } if($_GET['error'] == 2) { print "<b>Error</b> - Please supply a password<br /><br/>"; } if($_GET['error'] == 3) { print "<b>Error</b> - Invalid Username<br><br>"; } if($_GET['error'] == 4) { print "<b>Error</b> - Invalid Password<br /><br />"; } ?> <form action="login.php" method="post"> <table> <tr> <td class="midtext">Username:</td> <td> <input type="text" name="username" size="25" class="form" autocomplete="off"></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="midtext">Password:</td> <td> <input type="password" name="password" size="25" class="form" autocomplete="off"></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="midtext" valign="top">Security Code:</td> <td class="midtext"> <img src="image.php" onclick="this.src='image.php?newtime=' + (new Date()).getTime();">(Click to reload)<br /> <input type="text" name="code" size="17" maxlength="17" autocomplete="off" class="form"></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td align="right"> <input type="submit" value="Login" name="loginsubmit" class="form"></td> </tr> </table> </form> Let me know if you need any files... Similar TutorialsHy 2 all, I have some questions about password security that I haven't been able to find an answer yet. Hopefully you guys know. Here it goes: 1. Is it better to hash(sha2) the password and then salt it or salt it and than hash it ? 2. I'm guessing that using a random salt is better than the same salt used for every password. 3. How can you generate a different random salt for each password ? I mean how will the login page know which random salt to mix with the hashed user inserted password and then to compare it with the password stored in the db. (an example would be great(for both: generating and authentication) 4. I saw some codes in which the salt and/or hash and/or password was split into two (ex: hash.salt1a.password.salt1b or password1a.salt.password1b or salt.hash1a.password.hash1b etc.) Is this a good idea ? Is it really more secure ? If so which would be more secure (splitting the password, the hash or the salt) ? 5. Is double hashing (ex: (sha1(md5($password))) any good ? 6. I've been reading something about password salt and pepper ?? What exactly is pepper ? Is it some sort of second salt ? If somebody could enlighten me about these questions, that would be great. Thanks in advance! I'm sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but I'm having trouble with this encryption and I'm a real noob at PHP. This is for a registration form going into a mysql DB for integration with a gaming server that must use a Whirlpool Salt Hash encryption. These are the variables for my form: userPassword userName userEmail This was my original encryption script (MD5) Code: [Select] $_POST['userPassword'] = md5($_POST['userPassword']); This is the function that I am given to integrate into my website system: Code: [Select] function encryptPassword($password) { $salt = substr(hash('whirlpool', uniqid(rand(), true)), 0, 12); $hash = hash('whirlpool', $salt . $password); $saltPos = (strlen($password) >= strlen($hash) ? strlen($hash) : strlen($password)); return substr($hash, 0, $saltPos) . $salt . substr($hash, $saltPos); } I've tried inserting the variable $_POST['userPassword'] in place for $password, but it gives me errors... I'm stuck here, could someone show me how to properly integrate this? I think the problem isn't getting the password into the function but catching the returned variable Sorry for my noobishnness, -Nolam EDIT: I'm also given this for the login page to check the hash. If you could help me with this it would be greatly appreciated to. Thanks!!! Code: [Select] function checkPassword($realPass, $checkPass) { //check for old encryption (md5 or whirlpool) if (strlen($realPass) == 32 || strlen($realPass) == 128) { $hash = (strlen($realPass) == 32 ? md5($checkPass) : hash('whirlpool', $checkPass)); if ($realPass == $hash) { // change password to new encryption? return true; } else return false; } // xAuth 2 encryption $saltPos = (strlen($checkPass) >= strlen($realPass) ? strlen($realPass) : strlen($checkPass)); // extract salt $salt = substr($realPass, $saltPos, 12); $hash = hash('whirlpool', $salt . $checkPass); return substr($hash, 0, $saltPos) . $salt . substr($hash, $saltPos) == $realPass; } I am reworking some code from a password authentication I did a long long time ago. The original code is using SHA1() function to encrypt the passwords for storage in the MySQL database. Is that still considered the way to go, or should I be using a different method for encrypting the little buggers? Thanks Hello Everyone, I have built a simple registration form shown below and Iam trying to get the users to have their passwords encrypted and then entered into my database. I am attempting to use md5 encryption. I have also attached the database connection script. My goal is when I check my database, I want to see the following: ( id, name, username, encrypted password ) The issue I have is that the form does not process completely. All I get this error (Error: Unknown column 'd8578edf8458ce06fbc5bb76a58c5ca4' in 'field list' ). Could some tell me or show me " What is it that needs to be corrected either in my Code or SQL insert and /or my Variables" to make this work correctly. I know that its probably a very, very simple fix... Im just stuck at this point. I really appreciate your help. thanks, mrjap1 Code: [Select] <?php error_reporting(0); if($_POST['submit']) { //Begining of full IF Statment $name = $_POST['name']; $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; $confirm_password = $_POST['confirm_password']; // Encrypt Pasword $enc_password = md5($password); //$enc_password2 = md5($confirm_password); // Confirm All feild were filled out when submit button was pressed if($name && $username && $password && $confirm_password) { // Confirm that the NAME that you used is NOT greater than 30 characters if(strlen($name)>24) { echo "<h2><center>YOUR NAME IS TOO LONG!!!!</center></h2><br>"; } // Confirm that the USERNAME that you used is NOT greater than 10 characters if(strlen($username)>10) { echo "<h2><center>YOUR USERNAME IS TOO LONG!!!!</center></h2><br>"; } else { // Confirm that the PASSWORD that you used MATCH & Between 6 and 15 characters if(strlen($password)>10 || strlen($password)<6) { echo "<h2><center>YOUR PASSWORD MUST BE BETWEEN 6 and 15 CHARACTERS!!!!</center></h2><br>"; } if($password == $confirm_password) { // Database Connection required require "db_conncect.php"; // We Now connect to the Dabase and insert the Form input details //------- ### ENTERING ALL INFORMATION INTO THE DATABASE BELOW ### --------// // 1.

This is my process, I am storing it as Varchar(255), did a cost test and 9 was my result
$hash = password_hash($passsword, PASSWORD_BCRYPT, array("cost"=>9));I was told I don't need a salt since it is included in the password_hash function Also I noticed most of the hashes if not all start like this, why is that? $2y$09$Thanks for any help Edited by moose-en-a-gant, 08 January 2015 - 01:51 PM. Hello Im making a secure php login system and ideally wanted to also md5 hash the username as well as the password. My reasons for doing this is to completey stop sql injections as i can combine the md5 hash with salt for the $_POST['username']. Now my problem is i need to be able to de-hash (if this is a word) the username for admin purposes of the business. For password reset i will just send a new password. Is there anyway that i can do this easily whilst keeping my username secure and stop sql injection for username? I have a register page that MD5 Hash's the users password and a login which also does this. However, no matter what I try it always says incorrect password. Even when I remove the MD5.

I have been reading in almost everywhere that we should not use our own custom login and password validations ( like regex etc.) but instead use the filter_var and filter_input built in functions provided by PHP 5 and above. However even after searching for more than an hour for with different search strings, I have not found even a single example that shows how we may validate for a username/login and password in a login form. Can someone be kind enough to provide a strong secure validations for username and login.
Additionally I would also like to clarify if the username and login fields in a Login form be manipulated in any manner to pose a security threat? I mean can a hacker craft a username/login or password in such a manner as to pose an injection or any other threat?
Thanks all.
Hi. I have made a login script, but I would wan't to encrypt the password. I followed a tutorial and got this: login.php <?php $password = "secret"; echo $password; /* displays secret */ $password = sha1($password); echo $password; /* displays e5e9fa1ba31ecd1ae84f75caaa474f3a663f05f4 */ ?> <form action="validate.php" method="post"> <label for="username">Username</label> <input type="text" name="username" id="username" /> <br /> <label for="password">Password</label> <input type="password" name="password" id="password" /> <br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> <?php ?> validate.php <?php include "setup.php"; /* get the incoming ID and password hash */ $username=$_POST['username']; $password=$_POST['password']; $password=md5($password); // Encrypted Password /* establish a connection with the database */ $server = mysql_connect("$db_host", "$db_username","$db_password"); if (!$server) die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("$database"); /* SQL statement to query the database */ $query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE Username = '$username' AND Password = '$password'"; /* query the database */ $result = mysql_query($query); /* Allow access if a matching record was found, else deny access. */ if (mysql_fetch_row($result)) echo "Access Granted: Welcome, $username!"; else echo "Access Denied: Invalid Credentials."; mysql_close($server); ?> Its the line $password=md5($password); // Encrypted Password that messes everything up. If I delete it and login, everything is fine, if I add it it says Code: [Select] Access Denied: Invalid Credentials I need help with this one! And if someone have time, give me some ideas how to make PHP scripts safer! Regards Worqy Hi guys I have a script which i've been playing around with thanks to Spiderwell: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=35078 I have sort of merged it with another 'member managment' script which is working great. Now i can't seem to correctly create a login page to pass the hashed password using (sha1). Now all i want to do is verify the username and the (hashed) password according to the database and allow the user in. The script i am using to check login works fine without a hashed password in the database. But ideally i'd like to use a hashed form of password. Can somebody show me what change i need to make in this script below in order to pass a sha1 hashed password? I'm guessing it's a really small change from the examples i've seen online, but i just cant seem to get mine to work. :| Your help would be much appreciated.

Hello: I wanted to see if I can make my password protected pages in my admin area, and the login form "more secure." I was told I should use MD5 / SALTING / HASHING to do this. I have tried some online tutorials, but am not understanding it, so I wanted to start from what I have and build upon it> This is my database table storing the myAdmins data (when I initially insert it into the database): Code: [Select] CREATE TABLE `myAdmins` ( `id` int(4) NOT NULL auto_increment, `myUserName` varchar(65) NOT NULL default '', `myPassword` varchar(65) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=2 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; INSERT INTO myAdmins VALUES("1","abc","123"); This is the login form I use: Code: [Select] <?php include('../include/myConn.php'); include('include/myAdminNav.php'); session_start(); session_destroy(); $message=""; $Login=$_POST['Login']; if($Login){ $myUserName=$_POST['myUserName']; $myPassword=$_POST['myPassword']; $result=mysql_query("select * from myAdmins where myUserName='$myUserName' and myPassword='$myPassword'"); if(mysql_num_rows($result)!='0'){ session_register("myUserName"); header("location:a_Home.php"); exit; }else{ $message="<div class=\"myAdminLoginError\">Incorrect Username or Password</div>"; } } ?> <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="<? echo $PHP_SELF; ?>"> <? echo $message; ?> Username: <input name="myUserName" type="text" id="myUserName" size="40" /> Password: <input name="myPassword" type="password" id="myPassword" size="40" /> <input name="Login" type="submit" id="Login" value="Login" /> </form> This is the code on top of each page I password protect: Code: [Select] <? session_start(); if(!session_is_registered(myUserName)){ header("location:Login.php"); } ?> Works well, but can it be "better"?? And, if I am allowing the admin to update his/her username or password, I do it this way: Code: [Select] <?php include('../include/myConn.php'); include('include/myCheckLogin.php'); if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { $myUserName = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['myUserName']); $myPassword = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['myPassword']); $sql = " UPDATE myAdmins SET myUserName = '$myUserName', myPassword = '$myPassword' "; mysql_query($sql) && mysql_affected_rows() ?> <?php } $query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM myAdmins") or die("Could not get data from db: ".mysql_error()); while($result=mysql_fetch_array($query)) { $myUserName=$result['myUserName']; $myPassword=$result['myPassword']; } ?> <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>"> <input type="hidden" name="POSTBACK" value="EDIT"> Username: <input type="text" size="60" maxlength="60" name="myUserName" value="<?php echo $myUserName; ?>"> Password: <input type="password" size="60" maxlength="60" name="myPassword" value="<?php echo $myPassword; ?>"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> Should it be "better" .. ?? I don't seem to understand how to "encrypt" all of this to make it "stronger" .. Ideas? Improvements? Hello everyone: I wanted to see how I can make a simple login page (user name and password) that redirects to a page(s) if the login is correct. Also, I wanted to put protection on the page(s) that will send the user back to the login page if the credentials are nor correct. I would imagine the username/password would be stored in a database table (Admins), and the correct login info would be stored in a session ..? I am use to doing this with ASP, but never PHP. I want to make sure I understand how to do this properly and securely so I can use this as a model for other systems. In ASP I would do a protected page like this: a_login_check.asp Code: [Select] <% if session("admin_user_name") = "" then session.abandon response.redirect "login.asp" end if %> Protected-Page.asp Code: [Select] <!-- #include file="include/a_check_login.asp" --> <html> ... CONTENT ... </html> And of course there is the login page itself ... (I thought it would be nice to add a "Forgot Password" link on the login page, but if that is too complicated I can do that later .. or is it easy ??) Anyway, can someone point-out to me how to do this. I would appreciate it! Alright, I've been assigned a project at work. I did not develop the application and the individual who did used CodeIgnited framework and mysql as the db.
Here's the problem, I'm not given much OT to do this and in our meeting the best way to proceed was to replicate the database for different parts of the organization. Basically we are a subsidiary and have been using an application that other groups within the organization want to use. Usually I would reconfigure the db schema and add org ids and in the user table add the appropriate organization to go to. However, they are not giving me enough time to do that.
So what I'm thinking is to just create a copy of the database we use (just the structure) and create a new database.
What I want to know is how to use mysql to check to see if a user exists in one database and if they don't then to go on to the next database. I understand this is a very sloppy way to do it, but it's the way we are moving forward.
I found the code to connect to the db in CodeIgnitor... how can I connect to a database, check to see if the user exists, then close that db connection and try the next database?
/** * Select the database * * @access private called by the base class * @return resource */ function db_select() { return @mysql_select_db($this->database, $this->conn_id); }Thanks in advance. Hi! I have read like crazy to find a tutorial on a login page without My_SQL. Anyway I am working on a easy login/logged out page with sessions. Here is the login page with tree users in an array.
The things that I need some hints to solve is, when clicking on login the error message don't show. Instead the script goes to the logged in page right away. And when you write the wrong password you get loged in anyway.
I am not sure how or if it's possible to write a varible to a file this way. But I tried and recived a parse error with the txt varible.
When searching for topics I get more confused with the My_SQL varibles. I am near a breaking point at cracking the first step on PHP, but need some advice.

Every page I created works exactly how I envisioned it... All members data from my registration form goes into my database along with their md5 Encrypted passwords with a time-stamp. Subsequent pages have a start_session included. I am very please with it except ONE THING. Logging in is now a problem... username is recognized but NOT the password. Now the strange thing is that when I go into the database and copy the encrypted password and paste it into the password field in my login page, I miraculously get into my website with NO problem. " How do I get the registered members Encrypted Passwords to be recognized by the database when the registered members decide to logging in with the password that they create? " Is there a easy fix for this? I appreciate ALL your help... thanks mrjap1 Hello, I'm doing something that looks like framework. It's my first serious "project". And now, I have a few questions: what basic functions are needed in MVC model class? Just tell me some functions, that could use, so I could try to code them. And the next question is... I'm going to create a login system for users. In my website there will be pages, that are visible for all visitors, and only for members. For example main website page should be visible for all visitors, but the page, where member can change his password, should be visible only for member. I know only one way to do this: allways and everywhere check if user is logged in. But isn't there smarter and simpler way? I hope you understood what I need. Sorry for bad english I have created this login class (In all honesty this is the most commented and well structured class I have ever written, I usualy just use random functions in a functions.php file, which works but this felt good when I finished it ) I just wanted some advice to how safe and whether the way I have done this is 'good practise', or if there is anything I should add to future proof it.

I have developed a code for a login and seems to work well (No syntax error according to https://phpcodechecker.com/ but when I enter a username and a password in the login form, I get an error HTTP 500.
