-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow for sha256 checksum verification of downloaded 
artifacts.
                 Key: MWRAPPER-75
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWRAPPER-75
             Project: Maven Wrapper
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Maven Wrapper Jar, Maven Wrapper Plugin, Maven Wrapper 
Scripts
            Reporter: Rafael Winterhalter


Maven Wrapper is downloading binary artifacts that are later executed. To 
prevent from an attack where a vulnerable repository could distribute malicious 
Maven (wrapper) artifacts, the downloaded artifacts should be verified against 
a secure checksum. If the expected checksum does not match, execution could be 
aborted before the potentially compromised artifact is executed.

In my PR, i chose SHA-256 as it is cheaper to compute than SHA-512 but still 
impossible to replicate with a corrupted binary.
