Strange behaviour in php hash_hmac

I am creating a simple api in php.



$signature_string = "MARCIGETapi/v1/test/636779232000000000FIXXISOFTRGllcyBpc3QgZWluIFRlc3Q="
$new_sig = hash_hmac("sha256", $signature_string, $api_key, false);
echo $new_sig;



24f305d19cad2e848b3407f64bc21ada0ff1978a2487a23f26aa35f3a1c8204a




Now explain me this:



$new_sig = hash_hmac("sha256", "MARCIGETapi/v1/test/636779232000000000FIXXISOFTRGllcyBpc3QgZWluIFRlc3Q=" , $api_key, false);
echo $new_sig;



c1d2347e60a648838fd8a98a41174fc9a4b18371e18261931f3337951b8a6cdf




The second one is the expected one I was able to generate on the c# client.

    Please provide a MCVE of this problem. It shouldn't create a different hash just because the value is saved in a variable first. Maybe the $signature_string variable or the $api_key variable is changing.

  • i am pretty sure this can me reproduced using any string as api_key. I am 100% sure the data is the same (api_key is used both times). the 2 snippets are right after each other and api_key is never altered.

  • It can not be reproduced with just these code blocks. They will return the same hash, regardless if the message is written directly in the hash_hmac() call or via a variable. Please provide a MCVE.

I`ve had the same problems in one of my projects.
Just try:



$new_sig = hash_hmac("sha256", trim($signatur_string," "), $api_key);
