# Deprecation: #88432 - Replaced md5.js with an AMD module

See [forge#88432](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/88432)

## Description

The file `md5.js` used to generate a MD5 hash in JavaScript has been marked as deprecated and replaced by an AMD module
`TYPO3/CMS/Backend/Hashing/Md5`.

## Impact

Using the global function `MD5()` will trigger a deprecation log entry in the browser's console.

## Affected Installations

All installations using third party extensions that use `MD5()` of `md5.js` are affected.

## Migration

Load the AMD module `TYPO3/CMS/Backend/Hashing/Md5` via RequireJS as `Md5` and call `Md5.hash()` instead.
