Is the SHA-1 functionality in Firefox accessible to Javascript code in
an extension? So far, all the extensions I've found that use SHA-1
include the SHA-1 algorithm implemented in Javascript. Is this the
only option?
I believe Mozilla exports the crypto algorithms implemented
in the NSS libraries via the nsCrypto class (or some other
class defined under mozilla/security/manager). So if SHA-1
is not exported by nsCrypto, it may just involve modifying
nsCrypto to do that.
Note: I am not very familiar with the Mozilla code base, so
my answer may not be 100% accurate. I'm just trying to help.
