Creating HMAC-MD5 Algorithms
The following topic provides examples for creating HMAC-MD5 encryption algorithms in JavaScript and Perl for Forte's SOAP web services and Secure Web Pay application, specifically the pg_ts_hash
(SWP) and TSHash
(SOAP web services) parameters. NOTE: The JavaScript code should only be used internally or on a secure intranet as the Secret Key is viewable to anyone who views the HTML source code.
Perl Sample Code
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Digest::HMAC_MD5 qw(hmac_md5_hex);
# generate hex hash of message with secret key
my $digest = hmac_md5_hex("MESSAGE_TEXT","SECRET_KEY");
print $digest;
JavaScript Sample Code
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://crypto-js.googlecode.com/files/2.2.0-crypto-md5.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://crypto-js.googlecode.com/files/2.2.0-hmac-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Generate hex hash of message with secret key
var hmac = Crypto.HMAC(Crypto.MD5, "MESSAGE", "SECRET_KEY");
</script>
