Hi
As you probably noted string hash collisions are all the rage these days
[1]. Has anybody looked into whether this applies to Pharo as well?
I'm sure it does.
Ok, I read the slides. Pharo is vulnerable, but the hash function
is more complex than those in PHP, Java, etc. (though it has only 28
bits), so I guess it's a bit harder to find enough strings with clashing
hashes.
