NAME

hashdig-find.pl - Find one or more hashes in a HashDig database

SYNOPSIS

hashdig-find.pl [-qr] [-a hash-type] [-c {A|K|U}] -d db hash [hash ...]

DESCRIPTION

This utility searches for a list of hashes from a HashDig database that has been created with hashdig-make(1). MD5 hashes must match the following regular expression:

    ^[0-9a-fA-F]{32}$

SHA1 hashes, must match the following regular expression:

    ^[0-9a-fA-F]{40}$

SHA256 hashes, must match the following regular expression:

    ^[0-9a-fA-F]{64}$

Input that does not match the required expression will cause the program to generate an error message, which will be conditionally printed based on whether or not the -q flag has been set.

The output produced by this utility has the following format:

    hash|category|db

OPTIONS

-a hash-type

Specifies the type of hashes that are to be sought. Currently, the following hash types (or algorithms) are supported: 'MD5', 'SHA1', and 'SHA256'. The default hash type is that specified by the HASH_TYPE environment variable or 'MD5' if HASH_TYPE is not set. The value for this option is not case sensitive.

-c category

Specifies the hash category, {A|K|U}, to enumerate. Currently, the following categories are supported: all (A), known (K), and unknown (U). The default category is all.

-d db

Specifies the name of the database to search.

-q

Don't report errors (i.e., be quiet) while processing input.

-r

Reverse the meaning of the db and hash arguments. This option allows you to search for a single hash in one or more HashDig databases.
