Report of collision-generation with MD5

[David Wolfskill]

Just got a pointer to this via ACM "TechNews Alert" for today:

http://www.acm.org/technews/articles/2004-6/0818w.html#item2

Seems that "... French computer scientist Antoine Joux reported on
Aug. 12 his discovery of a flaw in the MD5 algorithm, which is often
used with digital signatures...."

There's more in the article cited above.

Peace,
david
