Nicolas Seydoux created JENA-1812: ------------------------------------- Summary: Migrate blank node hash algorithm from MD5 to SHA-256 Key: JENA-1812 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1812 Project: Apache Jena Issue Type: Improvement Components: ARQ Reporter: Nicolas Seydoux Fix For: Jena 3.14.0
MD5 is a deprecated hashing algorithm, and even though it is not used on sensitive data in the context of Jena, its usage is picked up by security softwares as a security flaw. This may reduce the incentive to use Jena in commercial products, and computing SHA-256 hashes is not prohibitively more expensive than MD5. Therefore, I suggest to migrate from using MD5 hashes to SHA-256. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
