Setting md5crypt does not work

[klodner]

When going from 3.2 to current code, setting

$CONF['encrypt'] = 'md5crypt';

no longer works, starting generating different hashes.

The function
function pacrypt

in functions.inc.php does not call md5crypt() as before and goes to some other hash type.

the output should look like :

{MD5-CRYPT}$1$AIjpWveQ$2s3eEAbZiqkJhMYUIVR240

or

$1$AIjpWveQ$2s3eEAbZiqkJhMYUIVR240

what sort of format are you seeing?

the {MD5-CRYPT} prefix will just help the caller figure out the hashing mechanism and as far as I know, shouldn't break anything....

[klodner]

It was (and should be) generating hash of type

$1$XDeIMRiw$ahktHJEoR8n/DGRpeeInv1

which my Dovecot and Postfix uses

In v. 3.2 the code called md5crypt() in such case:

    switch ($CONF['encrypt']) {
        case 'md5crypt':
            return _pacrypt_md5crypt($pw, $pw_db);

But in current code it calls something different and hash looks like

$2y$10$ba327511ee789d79269dbeIOyPHy7PLu3eWHG9e1Z7XRPpjYSJejK

and I don't know what kind of hash it is, I had to fix the code to call md5crypt() in case of "md5crypt" setting.

i think the $2 is a crypt style one (perhaps using sha1?)

are you sure your $CONF setting for pacrypt is correct - and isn't being overridden by some other file ?

perhaps do a var_dump($mechanism); somewhere around this line to make sure ? https://github.com/postfixadmin/postfixadmin/blob/master/functions.inc.php#L1337
