<h1>35.5. <tt class="xref docutils literal"><span class="pre">crypt</span></tt> — Function to check Unix passwords<a class="headerlink" href="#module-crypt" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p><em>Platforms: </em>Unix</p>
<p id="index-264">This module implements an interface to the <em>crypt(3)</em> routine, which is
a one-way hash function based upon a modified DES algorithm; see the Unix man
page for further details. Possible uses include allowing Python scripts to
accept typed passwords from the user, or attempting to crack Unix passwords with
a dictionary.</p>
<p id="index-265">Notice that the behavior of this module depends on the actual implementation of
the <em>crypt(3)</em> routine in the running system. Therefore, any
extensions available on the current implementation will also be available on
this module.</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="crypt.crypt">
<tt class="descclassname">crypt.</tt><tt class="descname">crypt</tt><big>(</big><em>word</em>, <em>salt</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#crypt.crypt" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
<dd><p><em>word</em> will usually be a user’s password as typed at a prompt or in a graphical
interface. <em>salt</em> is usually a random two-character string which will be used
to perturb the DES algorithm in one of 4096 ways. The characters in <em>salt</em> must
be in the set <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">[./a-zA-Z0-9]</span></tt>. Returns the hashed password as a string, which
will be composed of characters from the same alphabet as the salt (the first two
characters represent the salt itself).</p>
<p id="index-266">Since a few <em>crypt(3)</em> extensions allow different values, with
different sizes in the <em>salt</em>, it is recommended to use the full crypted
password as salt when checking for a password.</p>
