md5 is not an approved algorithm in FIPS mode, and trying to instantiate a hashlib.md5() will fail when the system is running in FIPS mode. md5 is allowed when in a non-security context. There is a plan to add a keyword parameter (usedforsecurity) to hashlib.md5() to annotate whether or not the instance is being used in a security context. In the case where it is not, the instantiation of md5 will be allowed. See https://bugs.python.org/issue9216 for more details. Some downstream python versions already support this parameter. To support these versions, a new encapsulation of md5() has been added. This encapsulation will pass through the usedforsecurity parameter in the case where the parameter is supported, and strip it if it is not.

====== Django ====== Django is a high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Thanks for checking it out. All documentation is in the "``docs``" directory and online at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/. If you're just getting started, here's how we recommend you read the docs: * First, read ``docs/intro/install.txt`` for instructions on installing Django. * Next, work through the tutorials in order (``docs/intro/tutorial01.txt``, ``docs/intro/tutorial02.txt``, etc.). * If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read ``docs/howto/deployment/index.txt`` for instructions. * You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in ``docs/topics``) next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in ``docs/howto``) for specific problems, and check out the reference (``docs/ref``) for gory details. * See ``docs/README`` for instructions on building an HTML version of the docs. Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket here: https://code.djangoproject.com/newticket To get more help: * Join the ``#django`` channel on ``irc.libera.chat``. Lots of helpful people hang out there. See https://web.libera.chat if you're new to IRC. * Join the django-users mailing list, or read the archives, at https://groups.google.com/group/django-users. To contribute to Django: * Check out https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/ for information about getting involved. To run Django's test suite: * Follow the instructions in the "Unit tests" section of ``docs/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests.txt``, published online at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests/#running-the-unit-tests Supporting the Development of Django ==================================== Django's development depends on your contributions. If you depend on Django, remember to support the Django Software Foundation: https://www.djangoproject.com/fundraising/
