QUESTION
I am looking for the fastest algorithm, where I can verify a digital signature of a blob. The algorithm shouldn't necessarily be cryptographically secure, just make sure that it's not trivially fakable. Signing time neither counts in my case.
Any suggestions? Also if possible, can you tell me what modules of botan do I need to use? (In order to only include them in my build!)
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-08 at 12:32I've just found out that botan library has a cli. If you target this via --build-targets="static,cli"
you can measure speed of different algorithms on your machine. Of course it will be specific to your computer, but for me this information was enough.
You can check out different options of the botan cli at: https://botan.randombit.net/handbook/cli.html
QUESTION
I'm studying Javascript and I have this example using filter...
I have an object called fruits like that...
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-15 at 17:32data.fruits.filter(item => item.id == id)
creates an array with just one product, the one with the id
given in the parameter.
Accessing this array with [0]
will get the one product in the array and .price
will return its price
QUESTION
I have the following 2 ordered dictionaries(that are the output from previous steps) that are similar, the only difference is that dict1
has only one node named GROUP
and dict2
has two (0 and 1 like in image)
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Aug-20 at 01:27Check whether dictX['CATALOG']['GROUP']
is a list or not. If it's not a list, the length is 1.
QUESTION
I have a dataset that is rather messy, and it is all in one column. I want to be able to split the rows into columns.
The rows can be split into 5 different columns, for each 5 rows because they follow this systematic progression.
Here is an example of my dataset with the expected outcome of what It should look like:
...ANSWER

Note: Actually your data has 6 columns.
QUESTION
I have a large database filled with plant names. I have a column with the species (Latin) name, and one with the Dutch name. Unfortunately, the Dutch names are not complete.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-25 at 20:26For this sample data you can self join the table with the operator LIKE
in the ON
clause to get the default genus and update with that the empty column values:
QUESTION
Question is simple. I need to find the tag of the main element in a xml using python.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-24 at 09:21Finally found a solution. I recursively iterate every element and count children of each element. At the end of the loop, the element with the most children becomes the main element. Here's the code:
QUESTION
I'm trying to hash passwords using the C++ cryptography library Botan. I've tried testing out the library using the code below:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-08 at 18:14After 4 hours of painful troubleshooting and rebuilding the library with different compilers over and over, I have found out that Botan does not work properly if "solution configuration" is not set to "Release" rather than "Debug" in Visual Studio.
QUESTION
I'm just getting started with Botan. I have included the botan_all.h
in my code file and am linking to the libbotan-2.a
library when building.
Here is the relevant part of main.cpp:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-26 at 10:29This is likely caused by your Botan version not being build with support for the specified algorithm. The method CipherMode::create
returns a nullptr
if the specified algorithm is not found (reference). You would then have to check the result, e.g.:

[X] I discovered this happen when
TLS::credentials creds
is declared on global scope but if I declare it outside seg fault won't happen.I need it to be global because it helps with caching certificates and that multiple threads can use certificates created by other threads without spending time on creating new certificates.
[X] I further reduced code from 200 lines approx. to 100 lines
I'm using Botan to create a TLS application and my application crash with a seg fault at end of the application.
I made an attempt to debug this with Valgrind but it leading nowhere.
Here is the stack trace from Valgrind,
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-09 at 09:41Author of Botan replied to me that
The problem is the globally defined object.
The problem is that the mlock pool is a singleton created on first use then destroyed sometime after main returns. First your object is created. It allocates memory. This results in the pool being created. Destruction happens LIFO. So first the pool is destroyed. Then your object is destroyed, and attempts to touch memory (to zero it) which has already been unmapped.
Workarounds,
- Create a Botan::Allocator_Initializer object to force initialization before your object is created (thus the pool lives until after your object has been destructed)
- Disable locking_allocator module
- Set env var BOTAN_MLOCK_POOL_SIZE to 0
- No global vars
In principle the locking allocator instead of munmaping the memory, just zeros it, and leave it to be unmapped by the OS on process exit. This might still break invariants, but not as badly. It also causes valgrind to reports leaks which is obnoxious.
I think because it was mmap'ed directly and not through malloc, valgrind doesn't track it.
QUESTION
I am using the Botan
library which contains an algorithm named Passhash9
.
It is a Password Hashing. Now, I want to know where it is from.
who can give me some papers or links about it?
Passhash9: https://botan.randombit.net/doxygen/dir_2f2a81ce70eadda327392ced4f630ceb.html
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Nov-28 at 03:50Proverbially too late to answer. I had the same question too until I looked into the source code. I don't know why they named it that way. But apparently passhash9
is PBKDF2 (source).
