Topic: How to change SSHA512 to SHA512 hash ?

Hello, i would like to migrate Openfire, but there is a hash problem. I can auth. users with SHA512 hash. But I cannot SSHA512. There is no support SSHA512 on Openfire. Is there any solution ? or How can i change SSHA512 to SHA512 hashes on iredmail.

I changed  (DEFAULT_PASSWORD_SCHEME = 'SHA512') settings.py file. However i can see plain password on mysql table.

Thanks for any helps.

Best.

SHA512 is not supported in iRedAdmin. Did you try SSHA instead?

It doesnt support ssha smile

Supported hashes below.

bcrypt
The password is stored as a bcrypt hash.
md5
The password is stored as a hex-encoded MD5 hash.
plain
The password is stored as plain text.
sha1
The password is stored as a hex-encoded SHA-1 hash.
sha256
The password is stored as a hex-encoded SHA-256 hash.
sha512
The password is stored as a hex-encoded SHA-512 hash.

Seems you have to use MD5 instead. In iRedAdmin-Pro, please set the password scheme name to 'PLAIN-MD5' (all upper cases) and restart apache or uwsgi service.

Also, you may need to add one more setting in iRedAdmin-Pro config file:

HASHES_WITHOUT_PREFIXED_PASSWORD_SCHEME = ['PLAIN-MD5']

I think i have the responsibility to WARN you that MD5 (no matter salted MD5 or plain md5) is weak. Use it on your own.
