  2. MD5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5

    A collision attack exists that can find collisions within seconds on a computer with a 2.6 GHz Pentium 4 processor (complexity of 2 24.1). [19] Further, there is also a chosen-prefix collision attack that can produce a collision for two inputs with specified prefixes within seconds, using off-the-shelf computing hardware (complexity 2 39). [20]

  3. Collision attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_attack

    In cryptography, a collision attack on a cryptographic hash tries to find two inputs producing the same hash value, i.e. a hash collision. This is in contrast to a preimage attack where a specific target hash value is specified. There are roughly two types of collision attacks: Classical collision attack

  4. Digest access authentication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication

    Although the cryptographic construction that is used is based on the MD5 hash function, collision attacks were in 2004 generally believed to not affect applications where the plaintext (i.e. password) is not known. [9] However, claims in 2006 [10] cause some doubt over other MD5 applications as well.

  5. Preimage attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preimage_attack

    All currently known practical or almost-practical attacks [3] [4] on MD5 and SHA-1 are collision attacks. [5] In general, a collision attack is easier to mount than a preimage attack, as it is not restricted by any set value (any two values can be used to collide). The time complexity of a brute-force collision attack, in contrast to the ...

  7. Rainbow table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_table

    Rainbow tables are specific to the hash function they were created for e.g., MD5 tables can crack only MD5 hashes. The theory of this technique was invented by Philippe Oechslin [ 3 ] as a fast form of time/memory tradeoff , [ 1 ] which he implemented in the Windows password cracker Ophcrack .

  8. Secure Hash Algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithms

    SHA-1: A 160-bit hash function which resembles the earlier MD5 algorithm. This was designed by the National Security Agency (NSA) to be part of the Digital Signature Algorithm. Cryptographic weaknesses were discovered in SHA-1, and the standard was no longer approved for most cryptographic uses after 2010.

  9. Birthday attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_attack

    A birthday attack is a bruteforce collision attack that exploits the mathematics behind the birthday problem in probability theory. This attack can be used to abuse communication between two or more parties. The attack depends on the higher likelihood of collisions found between random attack attempts and a fixed degree of permutations ...
