You're clearly somebody who wants to rely on "rules of thumb" for security. I'm arguing against the entire concept of rules of thumb and you've since argued against a strawman. Did I ever say "MD5 is ok in some cases"?…
We cannot produce an input that produces an arbitrary given hash. Here's an easy counterexample: the all-zeroes md5sum. That's an even harder problem than the one I've claimed is entirely not solved. MD5 is still…
That's fine. I will literally give you $10,000 if¹ you can give me a MD5 preimage attack. Take your attack vector to be that particular md5sum that you are making fun of. MD5 is not broken for the usage that you think…
