Title: Blockchain.info encryption Post by: walletrecoveryservices on December 09, 2013, 10:34:50 PM Hi
I'm trying to understand/duplicate the second-level password encryption used at the blockchain.info site. https://blockchain.info/wallet/wallet-format Their site says that the dpasswordhash value is calculated as 10 rounds of SHA256 on the sharedKey plus the secondpassword. var dpasswordhash = Crypto.SHA256(sharedKey + secondPassword); However, when I try to duplicate this functionality, I get a different dpasswordhash value. Has anyone got some pseudo-code that can show this working (and actually getting the correct dpasswordhash value)? (I can't make much sense of the javascript available at their site) I've tried various things, such as using command line openssl, as per openssl dgst -sha256 -hex -out tempout.txt tempin.txt or similar, but I can't get the right answer :( grrrr Thanks for any advice!

I am trying it on windows.But even using some online tools such as http://www.convertstring.com/Hash/SHA256 (which agrees with my results of using openssl), I can't get it to agree with the information from blockchain.info It might be related to padding or encodings to/from hex or base58..? |
