Google Authenticator authenticates only the latest "user"

0

I have been messing with the Google Authentication on PHP for a week right now and I have stumbled upon the issue with multiple "user" authentication.

Basically I have downloaded Authentication.php code and using it to generate and verify the codes.

<?php


class Authenticator
{
    protected $length = 6;
    public function generateRandomSecret($secretLength = 16)
    {
        $secret = '';
        $validChars = array(
            'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 
            'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 
            'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 
            'Y', 'Z', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', 
            '=',
        );

        // Valid secret lengths are 80 to 640 bits
        if ($secretLength < 16 || $secretLength > 128) {
            throw new Exception('Bad secret length');
        }
        $random = false;
        if (function_exists('random_bytes')) {
            $random = random_bytes($secretLength);
        } elseif (function_exists('mcrypt_create_iv')) {
            $random = mcrypt_create_iv($secretLength, MCRYPT_DEV_URANDOM);
        } elseif (function_exists('openssl_random_pseudo_bytes')) {
            $random = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($secretLength, $cryptoStrong);
            if (!$cryptoStrong) {
                $random = false;
            }
        }
        if ($random !== false) {
            for ($i = 0; $i < $secretLength; ++$i) {
                $secret .= $validChars[ord($random[$i]) & 31];
            }
        } else {
            throw new Exception('Cannot create secure random secret due to source unavailbility');
        }

        return $secret;
    }


    public function getCode($secret, $timeSlice = null)
    {
        if ($timeSlice === null) {
            $timeSlice = floor(time() / 30);
        }

        $secretkey = $this->debase32($secret);

        $time = chr(0).chr(0).chr(0).chr(0).pack('N*', $timeSlice);
        $hm = hash_hmac('SHA1', $time, $secretkey, true);
        $offset = ord(substr($hm, -1)) & 0x0F;
        $hashpart = substr($hm, $offset, 4);

        $value = unpack('N', $hashpart);
        $value = $value[1];
        $value = $value & 0x7FFFFFFF;

        $modulo = pow(10, $this->length);

        print_r(str_pad($value % $modulo, $this->length, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT) . '</br>');
        return str_pad($value % $modulo, $this->length, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
    }


    public function getQR($name, $secret, $title = null, $params = array())
    {
        $width = !empty($params['width']) && (int) $params['width'] > 0 ? (int) $params['width'] : 200;
        $height = !empty($params['height']) && (int) $params['height'] > 0 ? (int) $params['height'] : 200;
        $level = !empty($params['level']) && array_search($params['level'], array('L', 'M', 'Q', 'H')) !== false ? $params['level'] : 'M';

        $urlencoded = urlencode('otpauth://totp/'.$name.'?secret='.$secret.'');
        if (isset($title)) {
            $urlencoded .= urlencode('&issuer='.urlencode($title));
        }

        return 'https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs='.$width.'x'.$height.'&chld='.$level.'|0&cht=qr&chl='.$urlencoded.'';
    }

    public function verifyCode($secret, $code, $discrepancy = 1, $currentTimeSlice = null)
    {
        if ($currentTimeSlice === null) {
            $currentTimeSlice = floor(time() / 30);
        }

        if (strlen($code) != 6) {
            return false;
        }

        for ($i = -$discrepancy; $i <= $discrepancy; ++$i) {
            $calculatedCode = $this->getCode($secret, $currentTimeSlice + $i);
            if ($this->timingSafeEquals($calculatedCode, $code)) {
                print_r('This works!');
                return true;
            }
        }

        return false;
    }


    public function setCodeLength($length)
    {
        $this->length  = $length;

        return $this;
    }


    protected function debase32($secret)
    {
        if (empty($secret)) {
            return '';
        }

        $base32chars =  array(
            'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 
            'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 
            'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 
            'Y', 'Z', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', 
            '=',
        );
        $base32charsFlipped = array_flip($base32chars);

        $paddingCharCount = substr_count($secret, $base32chars[32]);
        $allowedValues = array(6, 4, 3, 1, 0);
        if (!in_array($paddingCharCount, $allowedValues)) {
            return false;
        }
        for ($i = 0; $i < 4; ++$i) {
            if ($paddingCharCount == $allowedValues[$i] &&
                substr($secret, -($allowedValues[$i])) != str_repeat($base32chars[32], $allowedValues[$i])) {
                return false;
            }
        }
        $secret = str_replace('=', '', $secret);
        $secret = str_split($secret);
        $binaryString = '';
        for ($i = 0; $i < count($secret); $i = $i + 8) {
            $x = '';
            if (!in_array($secret[$i], $base32chars)) {
                return false;
            }
            for ($j = 0; $j < 8; ++$j) {
                $x .= str_pad(base_convert(@$base32charsFlipped[@$secret[$i + $j]], 10, 2), 5, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
            }
            $eightBits = str_split($x, 8);
            for ($z = 0; $z < count($eightBits); ++$z) {
                $binaryString .= (($y = chr(base_convert($eightBits[$z], 2, 10))) || ord($y) == 48) ? $y : '';
            }
        }

        return $binaryString;
    }


    private function timingSafeEquals($safeString, $userString)
    {
        if (function_exists('hash_equals')) {
            return hash_equals($safeString, $userString);
        }
        $safeLen = strlen($safeString);
        $userLen = strlen($userString);

        if ($userLen != $safeLen) {
            return false;
        }

        $result = 0;

        for ($i = 0; $i < $userLen; ++$i) {
            $result |= (ord($safeString[$i]) ^ ord($userString[$i]));
        }
        return $result === 0;
    }
}

So all in all this Authentication works as long as I have only one user in my database (it is .txt file), but if I add another user with his unique code, the previous user cannot log in with Authentication code.

Here is the check.php file:

<?php
session_start();


require "Authenticator.php";
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != "POST") {
    header("location: authentication.php");
    die();
}
$Authenticator = new Authenticator();




$checkResult = $Authenticator->verifyCode($_SESSION['auth_secret'], $_POST['code'], 2);    // 2 = 2*30sec clock tolerance

if (!$checkResult) {
    $_SESSION['failed'] = true;
    //header("location: authentication.php");
    print_r($_SESSION['auth_secret'] . ' -- ' . $_POST['code']);
    //die();
} else {
    print_r('VEIKIASD');
}


?>

If any of the information is missing I will gladly add it. Note: I am using XAMPP to host local website, maybe that might be the issue?

Seems that the issue was with my secret code reading after all.

The problem was that the user.txt file format was like this:

foo:fooSecret

bar:barSecret

etc:etcSecret

After carefully inspecting the $_SESSION['auth_secret'] variable, I have discovered the empty white space!
