    > IIRC SHA256 outputs the full state so some types of length extension attack are still possible (though massively less _practical_ than against MD5)

    I'm not aware of any differences between the length extension attack on MD5 vs the one on SHA-256. As far as I know, it works the same way on both. Here's an assignment I did on the SHA-256 version if you want a deep dive: https://github.com/oconnor663/applied_crypto_2021_fall/tree/...

    It's possible you're thinking about finding collisions? It's true that this is much easier for MD5 than for SHA-256.
