Convert python code with sha to php - php

Question

got a problem with converting python to php. I've got the following code in python:
user = "DdrkmK5uFKmaaeNqfqReMADSUJ4sVSLrV2A8Bvs8"
passing = "K9hvwANSBW5tLYzuWptWMByTtzZZKHzm"
sha = hashlib.sha256()
sha.update(user)
sha.update(passing)
sha_A = [ord(x) for x in sha.digest()]
sha_A is the following array:
[231, 13, 239, 136, 20, 198, 76, 121, 67, 163, 251, 153, 114, 13, 65, 203, 41, 37, 64, 168, 43, 69, 81, 103, 235, 161, 15, 58, 82, 57, 217, 178]
I already converted it to php:
$user = "DdrkmK5uFKmaaeNqfqReMADSUJ4sVSLrV2A8Bvs8";
$passing = "K9hvwANSBW5tLYzuWptWMByTtzZZKHzm"
$sha = hash_init("sha256");
$sha = hash_update($sha, $user);
$sha = hash_update($sha, $passing);
$sha_A = [];
$i = 0;
$digest = openssl_digest($sha, "sha256");
$digest = str_split($digest);
foreach ($digest as $x) {
$sha_A[$i] = ord($x);
$i = $i + 1;
}
But the returned array $sha looks like this one:
[101, 51, 98, 48, 99, 52, 52, 50, 57, 56, 102, 99, 49, 99, 49, 52, 57, 97, 102, 98, 102, 52, 99, 56, 57, 57, 54, 102, 98, 57, 50, 52]
Maybe some of you will find my mistake?

Answer 1

I saw few errors in your PHP code.
This is a python snippet:
>>> sha = hashlib.sha256()
>>> sha.update(user)
>>> sha.update(passing)
>>> sha_A = [ord(x) for x in sha.digest()]
[135, 146, 107, 215, 70, 126, 179, 21, 19, 177, 191, 236, 182, 136, 192, 53, 148, 42, 160, 24, 63, 224, 170, 211, 32, 131, 59, 146, 60, 162, 77, 2]
And the PHP version, corrected:
$ctx = hash_init('sha256');
hash_update($ctx, $user);
hash_update($ctx, $passing);
$digest = hash_final($ctx, true);
$sha_A = [];
foreach (str_split($digest) as $x) {
$sha_A[] = ord($x);
}
[135, 146, 107, 215, 70, 126, 179, 21, 19, 177, 191, 236, 182, 136, 192, 53, 148, 42, 160, 24, 63, 224, 170, 211, 32, 131, 59, 146, 60, 162, 77, 2]
In your PHP version, $sha = hash_update($sha, $user); was bad because hash_update returns a boolean. The first argument is called the context and is the result of hash_init, the second one is the data to hash. Finally, you call hash_final with the last parameter (raw_output) to true to get binary data.
Last error, using openssl_digest on the SHA result's was computing the digest of the SHA digest's. Funny, isn't it? :).
