Description (last modified by Awais Qureshi)

I am trying to upgrade from django32 to 42 and facing an issue in https://github.com/django/django/blob/3.2/django/core/signing.py#L124

in django32 it is like this

# RemovedInDjango40Warning.

legacy_algorithm = 'sha1'

and in init method it picks the value like this
self.algorithm = algorithm or settings.DEFAULT_HASHING_ALGORITHM

In django42 https://github.com/django/django/blob/4.2.4/django/core/signing.py#L204

algorithm getting value like this

self.algorithm = algorithm or "sha256" ( its a hardcoded value and can be pick via settings)

So here is my code I am using dump method to signing.dumps(data_to_sign, salt=self.key_salt) and it furthers call the TimestampSigner So I am not able to find any way to pass the sha1 which is my current prod setting.

Last option for me is to override the class.

since DEFAULT_HASHING_ALGORITHM is removed. So may be pass param from dumps.

Change History (2)
