--- Comment #7 from Thomas Schmitt <scdbac...@gmx.net> --- Hi, guyvf wrote: > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function_security_summary This is about intentional manipulations of checksums, not about their suitability for detecting incidential transport or storage errors. So the main purposes of hashes with ISO images or their content is not in danger. MD5 still is much more safe than loitering a day at an arbitrary spot on earth without being prepared for the direct hit of a 10 km asteroid during that day. (That's around 2 exp -64 of probability.) If really crypto-grade checksumming is desired, i'd propose to use some trustworthy program (if you find any) to harden the ISO image after production. You cannot expect the necessary crypto experience with the programmers of ISO 9660 programs. Have a nice day :) Thomas -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
