+Subject: module: sign with sha512 instead of sha1 by default
+
+From: Thorsten Leemhuis <linux@leemhuis.info>
+
+commit f3b93547b91ad849b58eb5ab2dd070950ad7beb3 upstream.
+
+Switch away from using sha1 for module signing by default and use the
+more modern sha512 instead, which is what among others Arch, Fedora,
+RHEL, and Ubuntu are currently using for their kernels.
+
+Sha1 has not been considered secure against well-funded opponents since
+2005[1]; since 2011 the NIST and other organizations furthermore
+recommended its replacement[2]. This is why OpenSSL on RHEL9, Fedora
+Linux 41+[3], and likely some other current and future distributions
+reject the creation of sha1 signatures, which leads to a build error of
+allmodconfig configurations:
+
+  80A20474797F0000:error:03000098:digital envelope routines:do_sigver_init:invalid digest:crypto/evp/m_sigver.c:342:
+  make[4]: *** [.../certs/Makefile:53: certs/signing_key.pem] Error 1
+  make[4]: *** Deleting file 'certs/signing_key.pem'
+  make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
+  make[3]: *** [.../scripts/Makefile.build:478: certs] Error 2
+  make[2]: *** [.../Makefile:1936: .] Error 2
+  make[1]: *** [.../Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2
+  make[1]: Leaving directory '...'
+  make: *** [Makefile:224: __sub-make] Error 2
+
+This change makes allmodconfig work again and sets a default that is
+more appropriate for current and future users, too.
