Agent implement a security step based on MD5

THe result of a security scan yielded this:

“The calendar feed route uses MD5 to generate HTTP ETag values, a cryptographic algorithm considered weak since it is vulnerable to collision attacks.”

This weakness has been known for many years, and his “security” implementation should not be proposed or implemented in our code bases.

@Replit,

Can you please add avoiding such unsafe coding practices to a guardrail in .local/?

Thank you.

most of the predefined code in replit is actually from 2023 or early 2024 (back when replit had templates in multiple languages). the idea was a simplified node.js template for beginners or students in a isolated environment, there wasn’t a need for security.
