Oh yes, it can. You should reread
perldoc Digest::MD5
the md5_hex function expects data as its argument, not a filename.
You could use (direct quote from above-mentioned docs):
use Digest::MD5;
my $file = shift || "/etc/passwd";
open(FILE, $file) or die "Can't open '$file': $!";
binmode(FILE);
print Digest::MD5->new->addfile(*FILE)->hexdigest, " $file\n";
