"As of 2012, the most efficient attack against SHA-1 is considered to be
the one by Marc Stevens[32] with an estimated cost of $2.77M to break a
single hash value by renting CPU power from cloud servers.[33] Stevens
developed this attack in a project called HashClash,[34] implementing a
differential path attack. On 8 November 2010, he claimed he had a fully
working near-collision attack against full SHA-1 working with an
estimated complexity equivalent to 2^57.5 SHA-1 compressions. He
estimates this attack can be extended to a full collision with a
complexity around 2^61."
