Package hmac implements the Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) as
defined in U.S. Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 198.
An HMAC is a cryptographic hash that uses a key to sign a message.
The receiver verifies the hash by recomputing it using the same key.
Receivers should be careful to use Equal to compare MACs in order to avoid
timing side-channels:
// CheckMAC reports whether messageMAC is a valid HMAC tag for message.
func CheckMAC(message, messageMAC, key []byte) bool {
mac := hmac.New(sha256.New, key)
mac.Write(message)
expectedMAC := mac.Sum(nil)
return hmac.Equal(messageMAC, expectedMAC)
}
