Surya Prakash Raja commented on SYNAPSE-1126:
---------------------------------------------

[~mahir.kabir]Are we still using this class to generate UUIDs? The class is 
marked deprecated and recommends users to utilize UIDGenerator from Axiom Utils.

>  (at Line 96) "md5" algorithm has been used.
> *Security Impact*:
> The MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm is not collision-resistant, which makes it 
> easier for context-dependent attackers to conduct spoofing attacks
> *Useful Resources*:
> https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2004-2761/
> *Solution we suggest*:
> Use Sha >= 256 algorithms instead
> *Please share with us your opinions/comments if there is any*:
> Is the bug report helpful?
