Description
The VaultDistributionPackageBuilderFactory [0] proposes the MD5, MD2 and SHA-1 algorithms, for which collisions could realistically be forged.
SCD makes use of those algorithm for error detection (like a CRC) and not for security. Despite that, we should deprecate the use of those algorithms IMO.
I propose to remove the three algorithms form the list of proposals, and throw and exception if a non supported algorithm is used. The component end up not being activated unless the configuration is corrected.
