Proposed PR adds support for a new method in the crypt module: yescrypt. It is considered stronger as SHA512 or blowfish and as strong as argon2 for crypt() purpose. The hashing method was developed by the author of the blowfish crypt method, and was based on scrypt. It is supported on most Linux distributions, that ship with libxcrypt as a replacement for the glibc crypt library: Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and many others. |

I'm against adding additional methods to the crypt module. - libcrypt / libxcrypt are unreliable providers. The library is only available on Unix-like platforms, not on Windows. Available algorithms are not consistent, e.g. some platforms only provide old, bad implementations. Others only support a limited subset or disable some algorithms in their crypto policies. - We still plan to deprecate and remove the crypt module because it's not reliable. I suggest that you rather create a PyPI package with yescrypt implementation that does not rely on libcrypt. |
