 Using [`crypto.createCipher()`][] and [`crypto.createDecipher()`][] should be
 avoided as they use a weak key derivation function (MD5 with no salt) and static
 initialization vectors. It is recommended to derive a key using
-  
-[`crypto.pbkdf2()`][] and to use [`crypto.createCipheriv()`][] and
-  
-[`crypto.createDecipheriv()`][] to obtain the [`Cipher`][] and [`Decipher`][]
