AbstractAttachmentStore seems to be hard-coded to use MD5 message digest
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-9453
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-9453
             Project: Legacy JBoss Application Server 6 
          Issue Type: Enhancement
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-5.1.0.GA
            Reporter: Nicholas DiPiazza


We need to achieve FIPS compliance with JBoss 5.1.0 GA. However AbstractAttachmentStore.java seems to be hard-coded to use MD5, which is not an acceptable hashing algorithm. 

Is there some way besides changing the source code ourselves and hard-coding it to a stronger algorithm? It would be nice if it would try SHA, etc. and some others and only choose to use MD5 if it can't find stronger ones.
