I’m migrating a lot of user data into a new system and the previous developer did not MD5 his password column.
Is there a way to run a query on the password column and convert the values to MD5?

MySQL has builtin MD5, just add a new column and set the encrypted value there:
If you’re happy with the result, drop the original password column.
