Introduction

password-leak is a JavaScript module that can be used to determine if a password is compromised by checking with the Have I Been Pwned API.

How is this safe?

Your passwords are NEVER transmitted to any other system. This library makes use of the Have I Been Pwned API, which implements a k-Anonymity Model so your password can be checked without ever having to give it to any other party.

Installation

npm install @mathiscode/password-leak@latest

Usage in Browser

<script type="module" src="https://unpkg.com/@mathiscode/password-leak@latest"></script>

<script type="module">
  const isLeaked = await isPasswordLeaked('myPassword');
  const strength = await checkPasswordStrength('myPassword');
  console.log('Is leaked?', isLeaked);
  console.log('Strength', strength);
</script>

Usage in Node.js

With import/await

import { isPasswordLeaked, checkPasswordStrength } from '@mathiscode/password-leak'

const isLeaked = await isPasswordLeaked('myPassword')
const strength = await checkPasswordStrength('myPassword')
console.log('Is leaked?', isLeaked)
console.log('Strength', strength)

With require/sync

const { checkPasswordStrength, isPasswordLeakedSync } = require('@mathiscode/password-leak')

isPasswordLeakedSync('myPassword', (error, isLeaked) => {
  if (error) throw new Error(error)
  console.log('Is leaked?', isLeaked)
})

const strength = checkPasswordStrength('myPassword')
console.log('Strength', strength)

Usage in Command Line

Install globally:

npm install -g @mathiscode/password-leak

You can also use it without installing via npx:

npx @mathiscode/password-leak myPassword

You can then use it in two ways:

1. Interactive mode:

password-leak

2. Direct mode:

password-leak myPassword

The command will:

• Print whether the password has been compromised and its strength
• Exit with status code 0 if the password is safe
• Exit with status code 1 if the password is compromised or an error occurs
