Calculates MD5 hash.
Unit
EHash
Syntax
Parameters
AData [in]
A data to calculate hash.
ADataSize [in]
Size of AData in bytes.
Return value
MD5 hash of the specified AData.
Remarks
The MD5 message-digest algorithm is a widely used cryptographic hash function producing a 128-bit (16-byte) hash value, typically expressed in text format as a 32 digit hexadecimal number. MD5 has been utilized in a wide variety of cryptographic applications, and is also commonly used to verify data integrity.
Important!
|
The security of the MD5 hash function is severely compromised. As of 2010, the CMU Software Engineering Institute considers MD5 "cryptographically broken and unsuitable for further use".
