This article is a non-stub article, and also give brief descriptions to each algorithm, in contrast to the article to be merged/redirected here. NasssaNser (^talk/_edits) 08:48, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge This Secure Hash Standard stub contains two sentences and does not contain enough content to be a separate article at this time. - Becksguy (talk) 19:06, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge Agree with Becksguy--Freshman404^Talk 13:44, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge But note that there are two FIPS (namely 202 & 180) that specify federal-approved hashing algorithms. Dannyniu (talk) 12:22, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

I'm not sure if this is the right article to add this information to, but it seems important https://boingboing.net/2018/04/09/over-the-rainbow-table.html

In the corresponding cell of the table the security against the length extension attack is specified as 0 bits for SHA-512 (and SHA-256). This is highly unusual for actively used crypto hashes. No sources are provided. Pinging @Claw of Slime: who introduced the text (and the table). Dimawik (talk) 22:57, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
