Package: libstring-compare-constanttime-perl (0.312-1build1)

module for protecting string comparison from timing attacks

String::Compare::ConstantTime provides one function, equals(), which takes two strings of the same length as arguments. It will return true if they are string-wise identical and false otherwise, just like eq. However, comparing any two differing strings will take a fixed amount of time, unlike eq.
