    A broken hash function is used to check the integrity of a file
    Properties of collision and preimage resistance are broken with MD5. It is quite easy to generate two files with the same MD5 hash.
    A cryptographic hash function must be used instead. A hash function from the SHA-2 family or SHA-3 are good candidates.
