Summary: Replace use of Digest::SHA1 by Digest::SHA
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 3.3.0
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: Libraries
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
- perl module Digest::SHA covers and extends the functionality of Digest::SHA1,
providing SHA hashing for some additional bit sizes (224, 256, 384, 512),
besides the 160 bit SHA-1; its usage is compatible with Digest::SHA1;
- with perl 5.10.0 the module Digest::SHA became a perl base module, i.e.
it comes installed with a perl itself (Digest::SHA1 is not a base module,
and never was);
- the DKIM signature verification requires support of SHA-256 for a compliant
implementation; module Mail::DKIM (as used by the DKIM plugin) needs
to use Digest::SHA for this reason, so Digest::SHA is already 'in';
- the following SA modules currently use Digest::SHA1:
BayesStore/BDB.pm, BayesStore/SQL.pm, BayesStore/DBM.pm,
Plugin/Bayes.pm, Plugin/Hashcash.pm, (and Util/DependencyInfo.pm)
So, how about switching from Digest::SHA1 to Digest::SHA for a 3.3.0 ?
The required change is a trivial syntactical change.
