While we found some MD5 weaknesses, it's not broken in the general case. If I give you a well salted MD5 hash of a password, your only option is still bruteforce.
While you can produce two files with the same MD5, it doesn't help you to reverse a hash.
- rahkiin 10y agoProblem being that MD5 is incredibly fast, as opposed to e.g. Bcrypt, which makes bruteforcing so much easier.
- imaginenore 10y agoTrue. Assuming one round of MD5.
