02/17/2005: "SHA1 encryption has been "broken""
Thanks to Bruce Schneier for this alert via his security blog. To quote his post:
"SHA-1 has been broken. Not a reduced-round version. Not a simplified version. The real thing. The research team of Xiaoyun Wang, Yiqun Lisa Yin, and Hongbo Yu (mostly from Shandong University in China) have been quietly circulating a paper describing their results."
The SANS Internet Storm Center has further information and recommentions as well. I'll try to keep track of this as it develops and post additional notes here.
