In column level security authentication. The password-based column level
security authentication methods we use md5 & bf for encryption of data.
But after some days, if we don't know which one is used for encryption.
Which format of encryption (md5 / bf) is not showing in postgresql.
So it's very important to show, which type of encryption is used. And will
to much helpful for all.

This is not a bug, but a feature request. And AFAICT it's not even
a request that should be directed to the core Postgres project,
because there's no such feature as "password-based column level
security" in core Postgres. You should talk to the authors of
whatever extension you're using for that.
