Add advisory for broken blake2 impls
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
BLAKE2b and BLAKE2s were implemented using the wrong block size. All
versions of the `blake2` crate prior to v0.8.1 compute incorrect
digests.

See: RustCrypto/MACs#19

description = """
When used in conjunction with the Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC),
the BLAKE2b and BLAKE2s implementations in `blake2` crate versions prior to
v0.8.1 used an incorrect block size (32-bytes instead of 64-bytes for BLAKE2s,
and 64-bytes instead of 128-bytes for BLAKE2b), causing them to miscompute the
`MacResult`.
The v0.8.1 release of the `blake2` crate uses the correct block sizes.
Note that this advisory only impacts usage of BLAKE2 with HMAC, and does not
impact `Digest` functionality.
