MD5: Cryptographic Library for Lua

MD5
Cryptographic Library for Lua

## Overview

MD5 offers basic cryptographic facilities for Lua 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2: a hash (digest) function, a pair crypt/decrypt based on MD5 and CFB, and a pair crypt/decrypt based on DES with 56-bit keys.

MD5 is free software and uses the same license as Lua.

## Status

MD5 version 1.2 is now available for download.

## Download

MD5 can be downloaded in source code from its GitHub page.

You can also install MD5 using LuaRocks:

    luarocks install md5

## Credits

This Lua version of MD5 was designed and implemented by Roberto Ierusalimschy and Marcela Ozório Suarez (based on the original MD5 by Ron Rivest). The DES 56 C library was implemented by Stuart Levy and uses a MIT license too. The current distribution was packed by Tomás Guisasola and Fábio Mascarenhas as part of the Kepler Project.
