Target entity: CRAM-MD5
Context triple: [fetchmail, supportsProtocol, CRAM-MD5]
  • A. MD5
    MD5 is a widely known but now cryptographically broken 128-bit hash function formerly used for checksums, data integrity, and security applications.
  • B. HMAC
    HMAC (Hash-based Message Authentication Code) is a cryptographic construction that combines a secret key with a hash function to provide data integrity and authentication.
  • C. Merkle–Damgård construction
    The Merkle–Damgård construction is a fundamental method for building collision-resistant cryptographic hash functions from fixed-size compression functions, used in many classic hash algorithms like MD5 and SHA-1.
  • D. CRC
    CRC is the widely ratified United Nations human rights treaty that sets out the civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights of all children.
  • E. Poly1305
    Poly1305 is a high-speed message authentication code (MAC) algorithm commonly used with stream ciphers like ChaCha20 to provide data integrity and authenticity.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
