Try to update plug_crypto library. It uses :crypto.hmac/3 which was removed in OTP 24.
As you can see on GitHub, newer version of plug_crypto supports OTP 24 plug_crypto/key_generator.ex at 6ba8fd42a68351459fe6c769ca04aea6022a5cd1 · elixir-plug/plug_crypto · GitHub

In case you are using a pure Elixir implementation without Plug.

:crypto.hmac/{3,4} is deprecated and is removed in Erlang/OTP 24.

:crypto.mac/4 should be instead, but it is available only since Erlang/OTP 22.1.

Both functions yield the same result:

iex(6)> :crypto.mac(:hmac, :sha256, "key", "data") == :crypto.hmac(:sha256, "key", "data")
true
iex(7)> :crypto.mac(:hmac, :sha384, "key", "data") == :crypto.hmac(:sha384, "key", "data")
true

I not understand, because I have the plug_crypto version 1.2.2,

elixir --version

Erlang/OTP 24 [erts-12.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [ds:8:8:10] [async-threads:1] [jit]

Elixir 1.12.2 (compiled with Erlang/OTP 22)

and erl command

Erlang/OTP 24 [erts-12.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [ds:8:8:10] [async-threads:1] [jit]

Eshell V12.1  (abort with ^G)

what is wrong???

:crypto.hmac/3 is not available in OTP 24 (it was deprecated in OTP 23). This is being called from mongodb - which therefore needs updating. And it looks like this commit on September 28th does exactly that.

Since that code appears unreleased you might be able to adjust your mix.exs to be:

def deps do
  ...
  {:mongodb, github: "elixir-mongo/mongodb"},
  ...
end

You can try out mongodb_driver | Hex which has support for OTP 23 and OTP 24.
