MD5 or SHA-1 is used (CommonCrypto or CryptoKit's Insecure namespace). Both are broken for collision resistance and must not protect integrity, signatures or passwords.

Category: SECURITY · Engine rule severity: INFO

How to fix it

Use SHA256 from CryptoKit; for passwords use a key-derivation function (PBKDF2 with a high iteration count, scrypt, Argon2).
