severity 514578 wishlist retitle 514578 Please document deprecated RSA-MD2/MD5 in NEWS/README thanks
I have read through this bug, and as far as I can tell all the reported problems are things working as intended, i.e., untrusted RSA-MD5 signatures should cause failures. There is one remaining concern: Alexandra suggested we add something about NEWS/README about this. I agree with that, but can't come up with particular wordings. FWIW, the manual has explained the issue for many years already: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/gnutls.html#Digital-signatures I'm downgrading this as a wishlist bug and retitling it appropriately. Let me know if you still have some problem not related to RSA-MD? signatures. Below is a summary of the discussion.
