Voici un extrait de la doc de Freeswan

SHA
Secure Hash Algorithm, a message digest algorithm developed by the NSA for
use in the Digital Signature standard, FIPS number 186 from NIST. SHA is an
improved variant of MD4 producing a 160-bit hash.
SHA is one of two message digest algorithms available in IPSEC. The other is
MD5. Some people do not trust SHA because it was developed by the NSA. There
is, as far as we know, no cryptographic evidence that SHA is untrustworthy,
but this does not prevent that view from being strongly held.
