Summary0005636: Use alternative password encryption, md5 is deprecated
DescriptionIn a security audit of one of our customers the OXID password encryption using salt and md5() was considered far too weak.

There are too many md5 cracking tools available today, so basically, an attacker could reverse engineer stolen user passwords from the oxuser table within minutes.

Additional InformationA preferred solution would be to use bcrypt or SHA1 instead of MD5.

Reminder sent to: henrik.steffen

Hi,
Thank you very much for submitting this feature request. We implemented it since version 4.9/5.2. Since version 4.9/5.2 we are using SHA2 instead of MD5.


Best regards,
Jurate
