QuestionPassword Verify Pin
Valecia_cho30-Mar-18 13:32
Valecia_cho30-Mar-18 13:32 
So I'm building a website and I've got alot of the core functionality sorted. Been trying to make a register and login system. Everything on the front end works ok. Registering is fine but I can't get the password_verify function to recognise a correct password.

So here's the registration part:

PHP
$res = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `email`= '$email'");

if (mysqli_num_rows($res) != 0) {
  echo "<br>  Sorry this email already is registered with us!!!  <br>";
  $start = microtime(true);
  do {
    $stop = microtime(true);
  } while ($stop - $start < 5);
  header("location: index.php");
}
else {
  // Password hashing
  $cost = 8;
  $target_time = 0.05;
  // When microtime is set to true it returns a float
  // If set to false then returns a string

  do {
    $start = microtime(true);
    $password = password_hash( $password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT, ["cost" => $cost] );
    $stop = microtime(true);
    $cost++;

  } while ($stop - $start < $target_time);


  $date = date("Y-m-d ");

  $sql="INSERT INTO `users` (`username`, `email`, `password`, `sign_up_date`)
  VALUES ('$username', '$email', '$password', '$date')";

  if ($conn->query($sql)) {
    echo "Registration Successful!!!";
    header( "location: index.php" );
  }

}


That's just the part where a hash is generated and stored on an SQL database. Now here's the login part:

$conn = new mysqli( "localhost", $user, $pass, $db ) or die("Unable to connect");

$email = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['email']);

$res = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `email`= '$email'");

if (mysqli_num_rows($res) == false) {
  echo "Sorry no such user exists :(";
}
else {
  $user = $res->fetch_assoc();

  if ( password_verify(  $_POST['password'], $user['password']) ) {
    echo " Password login accepted. Redirecting...";
    $_SESSION['username'] = $user['username'];
    $_SESSION['email'] = $user['email'];

    $_SESSION['logged_in'] = true;
    header("location: testFront.php");
  }
  else {
    echo "<br>Sorry Wrong Password!!!<br>";
  }

}


For some reason the password_verify keeps returning false and I have no idea why. Have I overlooked something in the code. Is it my fundamental understanding of hashes?

Thanks
