BCrypt (1 Viewer)

Don't know whether this is of any interest for everyone in the forums, however, I have found this for hashing and verifying password hashes created using BCrypt.

https://github.com/as08/ClassicASP.Bcrypt
I was able to register the DLL to a TLB by navigating to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 and running the following command:

RegAsm path/to/dllfile/ClassicASP.Bcrypt.dll /tlb /codebase

From there, I could use this with late binding:

Dim Bcrypt As Object
Set Bcrypt = CreateObject("ClassicASP.Bcrypt")

Dim response

' Generate a hash with a default work factor of 10
response = Bcrypt.Hash("testpassword")
Debug.Print response

'' Verify a hash
response = Bcrypt.Verify("testpassword", "$2a$10$z7vfvfvHkOvJ6H1qMd8G9.kc38zptoqrqpsg/pwYTlmCd37OZ3sDK")
Debug.Print response

I was able to hash new passwords and verify existing hashed passwords made using the Node.js bcryptjs package.

I hope this helps someone else with the same problem.

That's pretty useful. Bcrypt is standard in web dev, it would be nice if more developers adopted that in Access.
