EVP_md5, EVP_md5_sha1 - MD5 For EVP

Conforming To

       IETF RFC 1321.

Description

       MD5 is a cryptographic hash function standardized in RFC 1321 and designed by Ronald Rivest.

       The CMU Software Engineering Institute considers MD5 unsuitable for further use since its security has
       been severely compromised.

       EVP_md5()
           The MD5 algorithm which produces a 128-bit output from a given input.

       EVP_md5_sha1()
           A hash algorithm of SSL v3 that combines MD5 with SHA-1 as described in RFC 6101.

           WARNING: this algorithm is not intended for non-SSL usage.

Name

       EVP_md5, EVP_md5_sha1 - MD5 For EVP

Notes

       Developers  should  be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these functions multiple
       times and should consider using EVP_MD_fetch(3) with EVP_MD-MD5(7) or  EVP_MD-MD5-SHA1(7)  instead.   See
       "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.

Return Values

       These  functions  return  a  EVP_MD structure that contains the implementation of the message digest. See
       EVP_MD_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_MD structure.
