下面是我用来获取给定字符串的MD5的代码片段:

$text = "text goes here..."
$md5  = [Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider]::new()
$utf8 = [Text.UTF8Encoding]::UTF8
$bytes= $md5.ComputeHash($utf8.GetBytes($text))
$hash = [string]::Concat($bytes.foreach{$_.ToString("x2")}) 

下面是一个尝试验证SHA256指纹的漂亮打印示例。我使用PowerShell v4下载了gpg4win v3.0.3(需要Get-FileHash)。

从https://www.gpg4win.org/download.html下载包，打开PowerShell，从下载页面抓取散列，然后运行:

cd ${env:USERPROFILE}\Downloads
$file = "gpg4win-3.0.3.exe"

# Set $hash to the hash reference from the download page:
$hash = "477f56212ee60cc74e0c5e5cc526cec52a069abff485c89c2d57d1b4b6a54971"

# If you have an MD5 hash: # $hashAlgo="MD5"
$hashAlgo = "SHA256"

$computed_hash = (Get-FileHash -Algorithm $hashAlgo $file).Hash.ToUpper()
if ($computed_hash.CompareTo($hash.ToUpper()) -eq 0 ) {
    Write-Output "Hash matches for file $file" 
} 
else { 
    Write-Output ("Hash DOES NOT match for file {0}: `nOriginal hash: {1} `nComputed hash: {2}" -f ($file, $hash.ToUpper(), $computed_hash)) 
}

输出:

Hash matches for file gpg4win-3.0.3.exe

这是我用来获得一致哈希值的方法:

function New-CrcTable {
    [uint32]$c = $null
    $crcTable = New-Object 'System.Uint32[]' 256

    for ($n = 0; $n -lt 256; $n++) {
        $c = [uint32]$n
        for ($k = 0; $k -lt 8; $k++) {
            if ($c -band 1) {
                $c = (0xEDB88320 -bxor ($c -shr 1))
            }
            else {
                $c = ($c -shr 1)
            }
        }
        $crcTable[$n] = $c
    }

    Write-Output $crcTable
}

function Update-Crc ([uint32]$crc, [byte[]]$buffer, [int]$length, $crcTable) {
    [uint32]$c = $crc

    for ($n = 0; $n -lt $length; $n++) {
        $c = ($crcTable[($c -bxor $buffer[$n]) -band 0xFF]) -bxor ($c -shr 8)
    }

    Write-Output $c
}

如果你正在使用PowerShell社区扩展，有一个Get-Hash命令可以很容易地做到这一点:

C:\PS> "hello world" | Get-Hash -Algorithm MD5


Algorithm: MD5


Path       :
HashString : E42B054623B3799CB71F0883900F2764

这个网站有一个例子:使用Powershell进行MD5校验和。它使用. net框架实例化MD5哈希算法的实例来计算哈希值。

下面是本文的代码，包含Stephen的注释:

param
(
  $file
)

$algo = [System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm]::Create("MD5")
$stream = New-Object System.IO.FileStream($Path, [System.IO.FileMode]::Open,
    [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read)

$md5StringBuilder = New-Object System.Text.StringBuilder
$algo.ComputeHash($stream) | % { [void] $md5StringBuilder.Append($_.ToString("x2")) }
$md5StringBuilder.ToString()

$stream.Dispose()
