Bug report

Bug description:

This is a filtered list of issues found in the hashlib and hmac pure Python modules by @devdanzin's LLM-assisted review tool (see Disclosure section at the end) and triaged by me.

• 54: hmac.digest() and HMAC(...).digest() disagree when blocksize is smaller than 16 #155428
• 55: hashlib.file_digest does not honor current position for io.BytesIO inputs #155419
• 56: Raise TypeError in pure Python hmac.digest for non-bytes keys #155426

Disclosure

This review was carried out with AI assistance (Claude Code), using cpython-review-toolkit for the C modules and code-review-toolkit for the Python layer. Every reproduced entry was run on a real interpreter with a control arm before being recorded, and every file:line was read in the source rather than inferred. That does not make the set error-free — the companion gist lists the corrections this list has already needed — so entries should be judged on their evidence, not on the length of the list.
