MD5 Hash Generator & Verifier
Generate MD5 hashes from text input and verify text against existing MD5 hashes. MD5 produces a 128-bit hash value but is cryptographically broken - use only for non-security applications like checksums.
⚠️ Security Warning
- • MD5 is cryptographically broken: Do not use for security-sensitive applications
- • Vulnerable to collision attacks: Different inputs can produce the same hash
- • Not suitable for passwords: Use bcrypt, scrypt, or Argon2 instead
- • Acceptable uses: File integrity checks, checksums, non-security applications
- • Consider alternatives: SHA-256, SHA-3, or other secure hash functions
About MD5
- • Algorithm: Message-Digest Algorithm 5, produces 128-bit hash value
- • Output format: 32 hexadecimal characters (e.g., 5d41402abc4b2a76b9719d911017c592)
- • Deterministic: Same input always produces the same hash
- • Fast computation: Designed for speed, not security
- • Historical use: Widely used for file integrity verification
- • This tool uses a pure JavaScript implementation compatible with standard MD5
