Pbkdf2Params
The Pbkdf2Params object represents the parameters for the PBKDF2 algorithm. It should be passed as the algorithm parameter into
deriveBits or
deriveKey.
PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2) is designed to derive cryptographic keys from a password. It applies a pseudorandom function (such as HMAC) to the password along with a salt value and repeats the process many times to produce a derived key. The added computational work makes password cracking much more difficult.
Properties
Example
export default async function () {
const password = stringToArrayBuffer('my secret password');
// Import the password as a key
const baseKey = await crypto.subtle.importKey('raw', password, 'PBKDF2', false, [
'deriveBits',
'deriveKey',
]);
// Generate a random salt
const salt = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(16));
// Derive bits using PBKDF2
const derivedBits = await crypto.subtle.deriveBits(
{
name: 'PBKDF2',
hash: 'SHA-256',
salt: salt,
iterations: 310000,
},
baseKey,
256
);
console.log('derived bits: ' + arrayBufferToHex(derivedBits));
}
function stringToArrayBuffer(str) {
const buf = new ArrayBuffer(str.length * 2);
const bufView = new Uint16Array(buf);
for (let i = 0, strLen = str.length; i < strLen; i++) {
bufView[i] = str.charCodeAt(i);
}
return buf;
}
function arrayBufferToHex(buffer) {
return [...new Uint8Array(buffer)].map((x) => x.toString(16).padStart(2, '0')).join('');
}
