Christian Heimes added the comment: No, Murmur3 *is* busted. Some clever people have found a way to perform a universal multicollision attack, that's a key independent attack. An attacker doesn't need to know the seed for an attack.
Collision counting as not a solution for the issue, just a workaround. It has been proofed for decades that a tree data structure is not vulnerable to this kind of collision attacks. A hash function with crypto properties is the second best solution. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14621> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
