Have I Been Pwned PHP

PHP 8.4 or above is required.

For PHP 8.2 and 8.3 please use 3.0.0. For PHP 8.1 please use 2.0.0. For PHP 7.4 to 8.0 please use version 1.2.0.

See CHANGELOG.md for a full history of changes between versions.

Usage

Most methods require a Have I Been Pwned API key, obtained on a monthly subscription basis: https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/Key

HIBP has three subscription tiers - Core, Pro and High RPM - and a handful of endpoints are restricted to Pro and above regardless of tier. See Plan-specific features and the pricing page for full details. A few endpoints (breach sources, a single breach, the latest breach, data classes, and Pwned Passwords) are public and need no API key at all. Each method below states what it requires; the table is a quick reference and the sections beneath it show full usage examples.

Installation

To install this package via Composer:

composer require elliotjreed/haveibeenpwned

Count of breaches by email address

Requires an API key (Core tier or above).

Return a count of all breaches for a specified email address (int).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$count = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedAccount($guzzle, $apiKey))->count('email@example.com');

Breaches by email address

Requires an API key (Core tier or above).

Return details of all breaches for a specified email address (ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\Breach[]).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breaches = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedAccount($guzzle, $apiKey))->breaches('email@example.com');

Breach names by email address

Requires an API key (Core tier or above).

Return the names of the breaches for a specified email address (string[]);

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breachNames = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedAccount($guzzle, $apiKey))->breachNames('email@example.com');

The breaches(), breachNames() and count() methods all accept an optional $domain argument to filter results to a single breached site, e.g. breaches('email@example.com', domain: 'adobe.com').

Whether an email address has been breached

Requires an API key (Core tier or above).

Return whether a specified email address has appeared in any breach (bool).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$isBreached = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedAccount($guzzle, $apiKey))->isBreached('email@example.com');

Breach names by email address using k-anonymity

Requires an API key on the Pro tier or above - this is a Pro-only endpoint even though the plain email search above works on Core. A Core-tier key will receive a 403 Forbidden response.

Return the names of the breaches for a specified email address (string[]) without sending the full email address to the API - only the first 6 characters of its SHA-1 hash are sent.

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breachNames = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedAccount($guzzle, $apiKey))->breachNamesByHashRange('email@example.com');

Count of exposed passwords by password

No API key or subscription required - the Pwned Passwords API is free and public. The $apiKey argument may be an empty string.

Return a count of exposed passwords for a specified password (int).

Note: This API call DOES NOT send the actual password to the Have I Been Pwned API, see: https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v3#PwnedPasswords.

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$count = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Password($guzzle, $apiKey))->count('password123');

Pass ntlm: true to search NTLM hashes instead of SHA-1, and addPadding: true to request padded responses:

$count = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Password($guzzle, $apiKey))->count('password123', ntlm: true, addPadding: true);

Whether a password has been exposed

No API key or subscription required - the Pwned Passwords API is free and public.

Return whether a specified password has appeared in a data breach (bool).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$isPwned = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Password($guzzle, $apiKey))->isPwned('password123');

Breach sources

No API key required - this endpoint is free and public.

Return all breach sources recorded by Have I Been Pwned (\ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\Breach[]).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$allBreaches = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Breaches($guzzle, $apiKey))->allSources();

allSources() accepts an optional bool argument to filter by whether a breach is flagged as a spam list, e.g. allSources(isSpamList: true).

The most recently added breach

No API key required - this endpoint is free and public.

Return the most recently added breach (?ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\Breach).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$latestBreach = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Breaches($guzzle, $apiKey))->latest();

Breach source by name

No API key required - this endpoint is free and public.

Return breach details by source name (\ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\Breach).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breachesBySource = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Breaches($guzzle, $apiKey))->bySourceName('Adobe');

Breach source by domain

No API key required - this endpoint is free and public.

Return breach details by domain name (\ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\Breach[]) - a domain can appear in more than one breach.

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breachesBySource = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Breaches($guzzle, $apiKey))->byDomain('adobe.com');

Data classes

No API key required - this endpoint is free and public.

Return the data classes used by Have I Been Pwned (string[]).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$haveIBeenPwnedDataClasses = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\DataClasses($guzzle, $apiKey))->all();

Domain search

Requires an API key (Core tier or above). BreachedDomain::search() also requires the domain to first be verified via the Have I Been Pwned dashboard or the domain verification APIs below - searching an unverified domain returns a 403 Forbidden response.

Return all breached email aliases for a verified domain (array<string, string[]> mapping each alias to the breach names it appeared in).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$breachedAddresses = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\BreachedDomain($guzzle, $apiKey))->search('example.com');

Return all domains added to the domain search dashboard (\ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\SubscribedDomain[]).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$subscribedDomains = (new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\SubscribedDomains($guzzle, $apiKey))->all();

Domain verification

Requires an API key on the Pro tier or above.

Generate a DNS TXT record value to verify ownership of a domain (string), then verify it once the record has been set (?string, containing a failure reason, or null on success), or send a verification email instead.

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$domainVerification = new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\DomainVerification($guzzle, $apiKey);

$txtRecordValue = $domainVerification->generateDnsToken('example.com');
$failureReason = $domainVerification->verifyDnsToken('example.com');

$domainVerification->sendEmail('example.com', 'admin');

Stealer logs

Requires an API key on the Pro tier or above, regardless of domain size. Stealer log searches also require the relevant domain to first be verified via the Have I Been Pwned dashboard - searching an unverified domain returns a 403 Forbidden response.

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

$stealerLog = new \ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\StealerLog($guzzle, $apiKey);

$websiteDomains = $stealerLog->byEmail('jane@example.com');
$emailAddresses = $stealerLog->byWebsiteDomain('netflix.com');
$emailAliases = $stealerLog->byEmailDomain('example.com');

Subscription status

Requires an API key (Core tier or above).

Return details of the current API key's subscription (\ElliotJReed\HaveIBeenPwned\Entity\SubscriptionStatus).

$guzzle = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$apiKey = 'HIBP-API-KEY';

Development

PHP 7.4 or 8.0 and Composer is expected to be installed.

Installing Composer

For instructions on how to install Composer visit getcomposer.org.

Installing

After cloning this repository, change into the newly created directory and run:

composer install

or if you have installed Composer locally in your current directory:

php composer.phar install

This will install all dependencies needed for the project.

Henceforth, the rest of this README will assume composer is installed globally (ie. if you are using composer.phar you will need to use composer.phar instead of composer in your terminal / command-line).

Running the Tests

Unit tests

Unit testing in this project is via PHPUnit.

All unit tests can be run by executing:

composer phpunit

Debugging

To have PHPUnit stop and report on the first failing test encountered, run:

composer phpunit:debug

Static analysis

Static analysis tools can point to potential "weak spots" in your code, and can be useful in identifying unexpected side-effects.

Psalm is configured at it's highest levels, meaning false positives are quite likely.

All static analysis tests can be run by executing:

composer static-analysis

Code formatting

A standard for code style can be important when working in teams, as it means that less time is spent by developers processing what they are reading (as everything will be consistent).

Code format checking (via PHP Code Sniffer) can be run by executing:

composer phpcs

Running everything

All of the tests can be run by executing:

composer test

Outdated dependencies

Checking for outdated Composer dependencies can be performed by executing:

composer outdated

Validating Composer configuration

Checking that the composer.json is valid can be performed by executing:

composer validate --no-check-publish

Running via GNU Make

If GNU Make is installed, you can replace the above composer command prefixes with make.

All of the tests can be run by executing:

make test

Running the tests on a Continuous Integration platform (eg. Travis)

To run all the tests and report code coverage in Clover XML format (which many CI platforms can read, including Travis CI), add the following to your CI config (eg. .travis.yml):

  script:
    - composer ci

Coding standards

PHP coding standards are quite strict and are defined in ruleset.xml.

The rules are PSR-2 and PSR-12 standards with additionally defined rules.

The code formatting checks can be run by executing:

composer phpcs

To automatically fix any issues where possible, run:

composer phpcs:fix
