Package: Session related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:session.hash_function always using md5
Description:
------------
session.hash_function not working when having the session and hash
extension
compiled out of the core.
ini_set('session.hash_function', 'sha256') returns a session with md5 hash
not
sha256
To fix this, php must be compiled using: --enable-hash and
--enable-session
Test script:
---------------
<?php
ini_set('session.hash_function', 'sha256');
ini_set('session.hash_bits_per_character', 5);
session_start();
var_dump(session_id());
Expected result:
----------------
string(52) "qcpidhu1jabq225probhkmegnehkrp3fetpdvflumpfbdvo7gis0"
a session hashed with the specified algorithm, in this case 'sha256'
Actual result:
--------------
string(26) "h5rbp62tghln79n92cqicjmce5"
a session hashed with the md5 algo
