Potential fix for https://github.com/hcengineering/platform/security/code-scanning/98
To fix the problem, we need to replace the SHA-1 hashing algorithm with a stronger one, such as SHA-256. This involves changing the
createHash
function call to use 'sha256' instead of 'sha1'. This change will ensure that the ETag is generated using a more secure hashing algorithm.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
