• PR Summary

This pull request introduces changes to transition from using plain node IDs to hashed node IDs across the codebase. The main purpose is to enhance security and consistency in node identification. The changes impact the node.py file and associated methods, alongside adjustments to the ignore file .blarignore.

Key Findings

• A static method hash_path_to_id was added in node.py to generate hashed IDs using MD5, replacing the previous plain node IDs.
• The as_object method was updated to employ hashed_id for sourceId and targetId, enabling consistent node identification.
• Import paths were revised to lowercase format for uniformity.
• The .blarignore file was updated to include .venv and .ruff_cache to better manage the development environment.

Cyber Security Report

❌ - Use of MD5 hashing for node IDs is generally considered outdated and vulnerable to collision attacks; consider using a stronger cryptographic hash function like SHA-256

• PR Summary

This pull request focuses on enhancing the node identification system within the application by transitioning to a hashed ID method, aimed at improving security and consistency. Additionally, a minor update to the project's ignore file contributes to cleaner development by excluding unnecessary cache files.

Key Findings

• Introduced a static method hash_path_to_id in node.py using the MD5 hashing algorithm to generate hashed node IDs. This method supports both internal use and external replication of node IDs, ensuring uniform node identification across the application.
• Modified the as_object method in both node.py and relationship.py to utilize hashed IDs for nodes, thereby replacing the previous ID system. This enhances security and uniqueness in identifying node and relationship objects.
• Updated the .blarignore file to ignore the .ruff_cache directory. This change prevents the tracking of Ruff cache files, leading to a tidier and more efficient development environment.
