Function which returns HMAC-SHA1 encrypted signature composed of public key and secret base string:
<br />QString hmacSha1(QByteArray key, QByteArray baseString)<br />{<br /> int blockSize = 64; // HMAC-SHA-1 block size, defined in SHA-1 standard<br /> if (key.length() > blockSize) { // if key is longer than block size (64), reduce key length with SHA-1 compression<br /> key = QCryptographicHash::hash(key, QCryptographicHash::Sha1);<br /> }
QByteArray innerPadding(blockSize, char(0x36)); // initialize inner padding with char "6&quot;<br /> QByteArray outerPadding(blockSize, char(0x5c)); // initialize outer padding with char "quot;<br /> // ascii characters 0x36 ("6&quot;) and 0x5c ("quot;) are selected because they have large<br /> // Hamming distance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance)
for (int i = 0; i < key.length(); i++) {<br /> innerPadding[i] = innerPadding[i] ^ key.at(i); // XOR operation between every byte in key and innerpadding, of key length<br /> outerPadding[i] = outerPadding[i] ^ key.at(i); // XOR operation between every byte in key and outerpadding, of key length<br /> }
// result = hash ( outerPadding CONCAT hash ( innerPadding CONCAT baseString ) ).toBase64<br /> QByteArray total = outerPadding;<br /> QByteArray part = innerPadding;<br /> part.append(baseString);<br /> total.append(QCryptographicHash::hash(part, QCryptographicHash::Sha1));<br /> QByteArray hashed = QCryptographicHash::hash(total, QCryptographicHash::Sha1);<br /> return hashed.toBase64();<br />}<br />
