Add in another +1 for sha256 or above. There's really no reason to move
to anything less than that. The "pain" is caused by the migration itself
not the particular algorithm used. It's just as easy to move to sha256
(or higher) as it is sha1 and sha256+ have better safety margins.

Title:
Keystone token hashing is MD5
Status in OpenStack Identity (Keystone):
In Progress
Bug description:
https://github.com/openstack/python-
keystoneclient/blob/master/keystoneclient/common/cms.py
def cms_hash_token(token_id):
"""
return: for ans1_token, returns the hash of the passed in token
otherwise, returns what it was passed in.
"""
if token_id is None:
return None
if is_ans1_token(token_id):
hasher = hashlib.md5()
hasher.update(token_id)
return hasher.hexdigest()
else:
return token_id
MD5 is a deprecated mechanism, it should be replaces with at least SHA1, if not SHA256.
Keystone should be able to support multiple Hash types, and the auth_token middleware should query Keystone to find out which type is in use.
