PHP翻译python加密函数

Question

I was trying to rewrite a python registration page of a game server to PHP, before inserting the password to database it is encrypted with the following function

hash = binascii.b2a_hex(self.cipher.encrypt(binascii.a2b_hex(hash)))

I'm not familiar with encryption and have no clue how to translate this to PHP

Answer 1

OK, let's do this step by step.

Initially, the hexadecimal hash is converted to binary using the binascii's function a2b_hex. The PHP equivalent of that would be hex2bin.

Then, you're using cipher's encrypt function to, supposedly, encrypt the previously obtained value. This is one of your classes, so I can't really guess what it does. Go find out.

Finally, just use the reverse equivalent of PHP's hex2bin: bin2hex().

PS: this hashing procedure looks really, really, weird to me...
