perl-Digest-MD5 - Perl interface to the MD5 Algorithm
- Description:
The Digest::MD5 module allows you to use the RSA Data Security Inc.
MD5 Message Digest algorithm from within Perl programs. The algorithm
takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output
a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.
Note that the MD5 algorithm is not as strong as it used to be. It has
since 2005 been easy to generate different messages that produce the
same MD5 digest. It still seems hard to generate messages that produce
a given digest, but it is probably wise to move to stronger algorithms
for applications that depend on the digest to uniquely identify a message.
The Digest::MD5 module provide a procedural interface for simple use,
as well as an object oriented interface that can handle messages of
arbitrary length and which can read files directly.
