Hash verification is a standard mechanism used to verify that downloaded file is original and not tempered. Often it happens that hackers modify the download files on the server and plant it with trojans/spywares.

Upon downloading and installing such softwares your PC will get infected eventually. To prevent such things, websites generally publish MD5 or SHA256 hash of the original file so that you can verify the same after you have downloaded the file. This will ensure that in case of any tempering with the file, end user will come to know about it and possibly alert the website administrator.
