Technical Glossary

Key Terminology & Definitions

Keccak Sponge Construction

A novel cryptographic hashing architecture designed by Guido Bertoni, Joan Daemen, Michaël Peeters, and Gilles Van Assche that won the NIST hash competition in 2012.

Length Extension Attack

A vulnerability in Merkle–Damgård hashes (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2) where an attacker can reconstruct hashes of extended messages, which SHA-3 completely eliminates.

Frequently Asked Questions (PAA)

SHA-3 Hash Generator FAQs

NIST SHA-3 added domain separation padding (0x06) to the original Keccak specification; Ethereum uses the original Keccak-256 algorithm before the NIST padding change.
