I’m currently storing bcrypt encrypted passwords in my database. At the moment my html forms submit a clear text password to my server, which then compares the bcrypt result (of the clear text) for a match. This is working fi… Continue reading MD5 Bcrypt best practice
I want to publish PDF documents on my website. I calculated the MD5 Hash of the file before uploading it. I want to provide this hash so that the downloader can check if the file is okay. What is the best way to provide the H… Continue reading Publish a PDF on a website with MD5 Hash

MD5 is a hash, so it is a one-way cryptographic function. But I am not sure that MD5 has only one hash per input?
Web application stores the passwords hashed with MD5, but when the user enters the password how can the applic… Continue reading How do user get access to login when passwords are stored in MD5?
The Taringa hack is actually one of the biggest leaks of the year with 27 million weakly hashed passwords breached, but it’s not often covered in the Western media with it being a Latin American site (something like Reddit).
The leak happened in August and it seems like the hackers were able to brute force around 95% of the account passwords fairly quickly with Taringa using an outdated and flawing hashing algorithm – md5.

I’ve recently discovered that one of our (strictly internal – no external risk unless other systems are completely compromised) internal facing platforms is storing passwords by salting and then MD5 hashing them. According to… Continue reading MD5 Preimage Vulnerability in 2017

There appears to be an inconsistency (or unpublished protocol) in many online hash generators when formulating a hash from an uploaded text file, versus strictly hashing the contents of a file. This issue appears to be unrela… Continue reading Inconsistency Among MD5, SHA1, and SHA256 Hashing Protocols
In our Apache server we received around 200 HTTP GET requests from the same IP and a common string in each request is “md5”, e.g.
