New submission from Jack O'Connor <oconnor...@gmail.com>: See https://github.com/BLAKE2/libb2/issues/12.
All Blake2 params have to be encoded in little-endian byte order. For the two multi-byte integer params, leaf_length and node_offset, that means that assigning a native-endian integer to them appears to work on little-endian platforms, but gives the wrong result on big-endian. The current libb2 API doesn't make that very clear, and @sneves is working on new API functions in the GH issue above. In the meantime, we can work around the problem by explicitly assigning little-endian values to the parameter block. ---------- messages: 305473 nosy: oconnor663 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: some Blake2 parameters are encoded backwards on big-endian platforms type: behavior versions: Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31933> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
