Did you win the lottery?

[Hongye Rudi Zhang]

Your hash value can be generated using the following details:
1. Personal information serialization: join your CID and VATSIM-registered email address with a comma (,) e.g. 1234567,[email protected]
2. Hash algorithm used: HMAC+SHA256
3. Key for HMAC: WFSS_VATPRC_2021_04_17_1200_1600_Yo9Qd

If you wish to generate the hash value by yourself, you may use the Python 3 code below, with your correct serialized information.

import hmac
import hashlib

message = '1234567,[email protected]'
SALT = 'WFSS_VATPRC_2021_04_17_1200_1600_Yo9Qd'

hash_value = hmac.new(bytes(SALT, 'utf-8'), msg=bytes(message, 'utf-8'), digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest().lower()

print(hash_value)

 

Or you may use the JavaScript code below, with your correct serialized information.

const message = '1234567,[email protected]';
const SALT = 'WFSS_VATPRC_2021_04_17_1200_1600_Yo9Qd';

const hashValue = require('crypto')
  .createHmac('sha256', SALT)
  .update(message)
  .digest('hex');

console.log(hashValue);

 

The obtained hash_value/hashValue is your hash value.

(UNENCOURAGED) Or you can use any of the following third-party websites or other websites that support the calculation of HMAC+SHA256 to verify your and hash value with your personal information.
Note: For the sake of personal privacy protection, we strongly recommend that you use the code above to verify by yourself instead of using any third party website.
