The current message digest algorithm is md5 (Also on line 36). As it has been demonstrated that someone can perform a collision attach on SHA1, it would seem wise to switch the digest to SHA2.

I would be nice.
Could the certificate be generated also stronger, actually i guess it is generated with rsa/2048.
