To the best of my knowledge SHA1 does not have a known pre-image of 00…00
(and neither 00…01
,00…02
, or other "special" values). Even though it would not violate any of the formal definitions of a secure hash the IVs are designed to avoid such human recognizable patterns.
Still I would probably advise against the use of these values, because others might, too, have come up with the idea to use these special values, see this question about a git commit with all zeros for example. If it is all the same to you I would generate a random 80bit value, for example 83a…c3
, and append your counter to it, for example 83a…c300…01
, 83a…c300…02
,etc.
