Apply md5 hash to a field in csv file

I have a .csv file and I want to md5 hash the second column for each row in the file.
File is something like
Code:
data1,foobar1,123,345
data2,foobar2,456,9393
data3,foobar3,1002,10109

Output would be like
Code:
data1,6c81243028f8e455fa617dd5f0232ce1,123,345
data2,cbac77acf401ef89c3297bd9fc41ec0b,456,9393
data3,f8b8d6a7367c1e4e0d60c5ac26ba8b04,1002,10109

Any guidance would be appreciated.

What operating system are you using?

What shell are you using?

What output do you get from the command?:
Code:
type md5

Thanks for the reply. I'm using ksh
The output from
Code:
type md5

is
Code:
ksh: whence: md5: not found

With
Code:
type md5sum

I get
Code:
md5sum is a tracked alias for /usr/bin/md5sum

Code:
perl -MDigest::MD5=md5_hex -naF, -e 'BEGIN{$"=","} $F[1]=md5_hex($F[1]); print "@F"' jjwags.file

Code:
data1,6c81243028f8e455fa617dd5f0232ce1,123,345
data2,cbac77acf401ef89c3297bd9fc41ec0b,456,9393
