work on des_crypt family

2012-04-13T18:10:11+00:00

* cleaned up source of des_crypt variants and DES util functions
* DES utils functions now have tighter input validation, full UT coverage

doc tweaks

2012-03-10T23:32:30+00:00

documentation updates for last two commits

simplified crypt.crypt() wrappers

2012-01-19T05:13:49+00:00

* safe_crypt() improved - accepts unicode/bytes for salt, checks for NULL, returns None on failure
* added test_crypt() wrapper to simplify backend checks.
* removed native=True from most to_string() implementations, unused now.
* updated UTs

split exceptions/warnings to separate module; added some additional warning classes to make filtering easier

documentation updates for latest round of changes

2012-01-19T01:04:34+00:00

deprecated unused int<->bytes utils

2012-01-18T20:57:29+00:00

replaced utils.h64 module with utils.Base64Engine instance

2012-01-18T20:35:29+00:00

* new utils.Base64Engine() provides flexible class for encoding arbitrary base64 charmaps.
  it should also be a bit faster than the old h64 module.
* predefined 'h64' instance has mostly the same methods as the old h64 module
  which it takes the place off - so imports should be unaffected.
  (the only the exception of the xxx_dc_xxx methods, which now use the 'h64big' instance)
* replaced utils._blowfish base64 encoding with custom Base64Engine instance
  to reduce code duplication.
* more through unittests for Base64Engine.

large rewrite of how CryptPolicy is parsed and compiled; should result in much shorter codepath when calling CryptContext.encrypt(), etc

all verify() methods now use "constant time" comparison function (see CHANGELOG for details)
