[targets ...] was flagging the MD5 fingerprint property (line 1031) as a weak hash used for security. This property is only used to display the MD5 fingerprint of a host key, not for any security-critical validation (e.g., authentication, signing). Marking the call with correctly tells Python's hashlib that the MD5 is not being used for security purposes, silencing the bandit alert while preserving existing behavior.\n\nChange: →
