Argon2 compare

Category: Crypto

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: string → string

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon2

What it does

Tests whether the input matches the given Argon2 hash. To test multiple possible passwords, use the ‘Fork’ operation.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Index	Name	UI type	PyChef default	Accepted values / format
`0`	Encoded hash	`string`	`''`	`''`

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = ['']
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'Argon2 compare', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = ['']
transform = Pipeline().then('Argon2 compare', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.argon2_compare. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.argon2_compare import run

result = run("example", tuple(['']))

pychef.operations.by_operation.argon2_compare.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

value (str | bytes)
args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
