* bpo-37630: Use SHA3 and SHAKE XOF from OpenSSL (GH-16049)Christian Heimes2020-05-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | OpenSSL 1.1.1 comes with SHA3 and SHAKE builtin. Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org> Automerge-Triggered-By: @tiran
* bpo-38738: Fix formatting of True and False. (GH-17083)Serhiy Storchaka2019-11-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | * "Return true/false" is replaced with "Return ``True``/``False``" if the function actually returns a bool. * Fixed formatting of some True and False literals (now in monospace). * Replaced "True/False" with "true/false" if it can be not only bool. * Replaced some 1/0 with True/False if it corresponds the code. * "Returns <bool>" is replaced with "Return <bool>".
* bpo-9216: Add usedforsecurity to hashlib constructors (GH-16044)Christian Heimes2019-09-131-4/+13
| | | | | The usedforsecurity keyword only argument added to the hash constructors is useful for FIPS builds and similar restrictive environment with non-technical requirements that legacy algorithms be forbidden by their implementations without being explicitly annotated as not being used for any security related purposes. Linux distros with FIPS support benefit from this being standard rather than making up their own way(s) to do it. Contributed and Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes christian@python.org
* bpo-11233: Create availability directive for documentation (GH-9692)Cheryl Sabella2018-10-121-1/+1
| | | | | | Replace "Availability: xxx" with ".. availability:: xxx" in the doc. Original patch by Georg Brandl. Co-Authored-By: Georg Brandl <georg@python.org>
* Use bytes.hex instead of binascii.hexlify in pbkdf2_hmac example (GH-8420)Ville Skyttä2018-09-111-3/+3

* bpo-33729: Fix issues with arguments parsing in hashlib. (GH-8346)Serhiy Storchaka2018-07-311-13/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * help(hashlib) didn't work because of incorrect module name in blake2b and blake2s classes. * Constructors blake2*(), sha3_*(), shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly accepted keyword argument "string" for binary data, but documented as accepting the "data" keyword argument. Now this parameter is positional-only. * Keyword-only parameters in blake2b() and blake2s() were not documented as keyword-only. * Default value for some parameters of blake2b() and blake2s() was None, which is not acceptable value. * The length argument for shake_*.digest() was wrapped out to 32 bits. * The argument for shake_128.digest() and shake_128.hexdigest() was not positional-only as intended. * TypeError messages for incorrect arguments in all constructors sha3_*(), shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly referred to sha3_224. Also made the following enhancements: * More accurately specified input and result types for strings, bytes and bytes-like objects. * Unified positional parameter names for update() and constructors. * Improved formatting.
* bpo-33892: Doc: Use gender neutral words (GH-7770)Andrés Delfino2018-06-181-1/+1

* bpo-33641: Convert RFC references into links. (GH-7103)Serhiy Storchaka2018-05-311-2/+1

* bpo-25910: Fixes redirection from http to https (#4674)Sanyam Khurana2017-12-061-2/+2

* Replace KB unit with KiB (#4293)Victor Stinner2017-11-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte") means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when appropriate. Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB. Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py. Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
* Docs: correct hashlib.blake2 keyed hashing example (bpo-31560)Dmitry Chestnykh2017-09-231-5/+9
|
* Improve code examples in hashlib cookie signing (GH-3562)sww2017-09-141-3/+4
| | | | | The `blake2b` function does not take the `data` keyword argument. The hex digest returned by sign was a string, whereas compare_digest expects bytes-like objects. Typo fix: compare_digesty -> compare_digest
