SHA-1 gone!
Following on from the MD5 collision, it has been reported by Schneier that SHA-1 has been broken.
No collisions have been made public or even claimed, but the claim is that collisions are possible in 2^69 hash operations instead of 2^80. No immediate threat, but the writing is on the wall. We need better hashing algorithms soon.
