Frequently asked questions
What does an MD5 hash look like?
32 hexadecimal characters (128 bits). For example, MD5 of "abc" is 900150983cd24fb0d6963f7d28e17f72.
Can an MD5 hash be reversed?
Not mathematically, but short or common inputs can be found in precomputed lookup tables – which is why MD5 must never be used to store passwords.
Is MD5 still useful?
Yes for non-security jobs: spotting duplicate files, cache keys, and checking that a transfer was not corrupted. Many package mirrors still publish MD5 sums.
