New research into attacks against the SHA-1 cryptographic algorithm lessen the cost and time to arrive at a practical collision. When Bruce Schneier made his oft-cited and mathematically sound ...

I was reading the new Ars article about Microsoft's decision to retire SHA-1 due to its vulnerability to collision attacks. The article mentions the well-publicized Flame attack of 2012, a key ...

In general, unless you're specifically tailoring input to produce collisions, collision risk of a (formerly, in case of md5 and by now also sha1) cryptographically secure hash function is not ...

A design flaw in the decades-old RADIUS authentication protocol allows attackers to take over network devices from a man-in-the-middle position by exploiting MD5 hash collisions. The “secure enough” ...
