While some cryptographically secure hash functions can make it hard to find these collisions, they still exist. In the same way, the strength of perceptual hash functions is also a major weakness.

Researchers have produced a collision in iOS’s built-in hash function, raising new concerns about Apple’s CSAM-scanning system — but Apple says the finding does not threaten the integrity of ...

Researchers unveiled the first-ever practical collision attack the cryptographic hash function SHA-1 on Thursday.

While there are specific kinds of hash functions designed to lessen collisions, they are laborious and require more time to write. To reduce collisions for certain cases, the research team trained ...

If the language does not provide a randomized hash function or the application server does not recognize attacks using multi-collisions, an attacker can degenerate the hash table by sending lots ...

Bursztein told the crowd about how another team found a hash collision using a different cryptographic hash function called MD5 in 2009. Like the SHA-1 collision, it was an academic success.

Perfect hash functions provide a collision-free alternative. Researchers give the function some extra knowledge, such as the number of slots the data are to be placed into.

Thursday's watershed attack on the widely used SHA1 hashing function has claimed its first casualty: the version control system used by the WebKit browser engine, which became completely corrupted ...

IOTA has just launched a new hash function, and is dishing out shares of a $220,000 bounty to anyone that can crack and improve its cryptography.

Bitcoin offers an irreversible digital property function that prior to its invention simply did not exist. Understanding Bitcoin is a one-way hash function should make sense because a hash ...
