FIPS enabled machines prohibit MD5 hashing for security reasons. Using
hashlib.md5
in Python will throw the errorValueError: [digital envelope routines] unsupported
. There are typically 2 resolutions to this problem: use theusedforsecrutiy=False
flag or use SHA1 hashing. Theusedforsecurity
flag is easier to implement and was introduced in Python 3.9, which is the minimum Python version for this library, so that is the method I chose.
