Recognize checksum lines generated by OpenSSL

Post by *JardaSX »

I have a file with checksums inside generated by openssl (one checksum per line, the command line is not included of course):

Linux/Cygwin generation relative path:

Code: Select all

$ openssl md5 bugs/video\ to\ perform\ some\ test/output.mp4
MD5(bugs/video to perform some test/output.mp4)= fe76301a5e609aae1cdb7ad60bcc424d
Linux/Cygwin generation absolute path:

Code: Select all

$ openssl md5 /cygdrive/t/bugs/video\ to\ perform\ some\ test/output.mp4
MD5(/cygdrive/t/bugs/video to perform some test/output.mp4)= fe76301a5e609aae1cdb7ad60bcc424d
WIN64 OpenSSL generation relative path:

Code: Select all

C:\>C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\bin>"C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openssl.exe" md5 "R:\bugs\video to perform some test\output.mp4"
MD5(R:\bugs\video to perform some test\output.mp4)= fe76301a5e609aae1cdb7ad60bcc424d
WIN64 OpenSSL generation absolute path:

Code: Select all

R:\>"C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\openssl.exe" md5 "bugs\video to perform some test\output.mp4"
MD5(bugs\video to perform some test\output.mp4)= fe76301a5e609aae1cdb7ad60bcc424d
Would like that TC is able to work with it at Files -> Verify Checksums.

In case it helps, md5sum is able to handle that, provided that the checksum.md5 file is then patched by dos2linux.

to me the easiest way is to transform your openssl file to be compliant with TC format or sfv format.

checksum TC Format
You can have multiple file , the extension is what you want,

Code: Select all

<hash> <File path>
Hash is detected automatically CRC,MD5,SHA1,SHA...

File path can be:
relative with a <*> before the path sample: *USER\passwd.txt
absolute path sample: C:/info/USER/passwd.txt

you can use unix / or windows \ folder separator
You can use ansi or UTF file with BOM..

This is quite easy to handle and probably easy to build in bash or anything else a scrip/pgm to convert your openssl file..

Once TC you cans use the File -> Checksum -> Verify from your generated list !

Thanks @nsp, I see your point, but consider that openssl specifies which digest algorithm you are using at the beggining of the line, because more than one algorithms can output a checksum which may look the same. I guess TC measures the length of the checksum to establish what type it is. But same length could be attributed to 2 or more digests. Obviously if you use the basics (CRC, MD5, SHA1, SHA256) that's so simple.

Anyway, it's up to the developer to make a choice.
