See http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/Nostradamus if you want to know the details of what this has to do with cryptography. We also announce two different Win32 executables that have identical MD5 hash values. This can be made to happen for any two executable files. This implies a vulnerability in software integrity protection and code signing schemes that still use MD5. See http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/SoftIntCodeSign for details.
