Implementation of the cryptographically broken SHA-0 hash function

sha0

This is an implementation of the SHA-0 algorithm. Note that SHA-0 is a BROKEN algorithm; this program has been created to verify old, broken signatures.

Credits

The whole thing is based on RFC6234 (which contains a reference implementation of SHA-1). It has been put into compilable code by Tom Szilagyi (@tomszilagyi) in his GitHub project. The hint of what code changes turn SHA-1 into SHA-0 have been taken from StackExchange fgrieu, who did an excellent outline on the code differences. I'm basically just the monkey gluing pieces together :)

Usage

$ echo -n foobar >foobar
$ ./sha0 foobar
SHA0 over 6 bytes of foobar: d3fb2f31117cc1481f6c5dc1905e06892a8ca38b
