Multiple Vulnerabilities in IBM API Connect

IBM API Connect 10.0.8.0 through 10.0.8.12 and 12.1.0.0 through 12.1.1.2 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information.

CallBackery versions before 0.62.0 for Perl store user passwords as unsalted HMAC-SHA1 hashes

CallBackery versions before 0.62.0 for Perl store user passwords as unsalted HMAC-SHA1 hashes. Passwords are hashed with hmac_sha1_sum() from Mojo::Util with no key, a single fast SHA-1 HMAC. There is no salt, so equal passwords give equal hashes, and no work factor slows down guessing. An attacker who obtains the user table can recover passwords by fast offline guessing.

CallBackery versions before 0.62.0 for Perl encrypt configuration backups with the padded password as the AES key

CallBackery versions before 0.62.0 for Perl encrypt configuration backups with the padded password as the AES key. getCrypt() pads the backup password with "x" characters and cuts it to 32 bytes to form the AES key, with no salt and no key derivation. The first block of a backup holds a 16 hex digit length field, so decrypting one block confirms a password guess at raw AES speed. An attacker who obtains a backup can recover its password by fast offline guessing, and with it every credential the backup holds.

Freeipa: user can obtain a hash of the passwords of all domain users and perform offline brute force

A vulnerability was found in FreeIPA in a way when a Kerberos TGS-REQ is encrypted using the client’s session key. This key is different for each new session, which protects it from brute force attacks. However, the ticket it contains is encrypted using the target principal key directly. For user principals, this key is a hash of a public per-principal randomly-generated salt and the user’s password. If a principal is compromised it means the attacker would be able to retrieve tickets encrypted to any principal, all of them being encrypted by their own key directly. By taking these tickets and salts offline, the attacker could run brute force attacks to find character strings able to decrypt tickets when combined to a principal salt (i.e. find the principal’s password).

Weak PBKDF2 parameters for password-encrypted private-key export in jose

Use of Password Hash With Insufficient Computational Effort in the jose library allows an attacker who obtains a password-encrypted private-key export to recover the private key through an offline password-cracking attack. When jose exports a password-encrypted private key with jose_jwk:to_der/2 (JOSE.JWK.to_der/2), the jose_jwk_der:to_binary/3 function in src/jwk/jose_jwk_der.erl serializes the key as a PKCS#8 EncryptedPrivateKeyInfo using the PBES2 scheme with hardcoded key-derivation parameters: PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 with an iteration count of 2048 and an 8-byte (64-bit) random salt. Neither value can be overridden by the caller. Both values are far below current guidance (OWASP recommends on the order of 600,000 iterations for PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256, and NIST recommends salts of at least 128 bits), so the key-stretching work factor is roughly 300 times lower than intended and the short salt reduces the cost of precomputation across keys. The symmetric encryption (AES-256-CBC with a 16-byte random IV) is not affected; the weakness is entirely in the derivation strength. An attacker who obtains one of these exported blobs (for example from a backup, configuration repository, object storage, or logs) can mount a cheap offline dictionary or brute-force attack against the export password, and success yields the full private key. This issue affects jose: from 1.10.0 before 1.11.13.

SH3 Módulo de Gestão/Módulo de Arrecadação weak password hash

A security vulnerability has been detected in SH3. This affects an unknown function of the component Módulo de Gestão/Módulo de Arrecadação. The manipulation leads to password hash with insufficient computational effort. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is reported as difficult. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. Upgrading to version 2026.0.2.0 mitigates this issue. Upgrading the affected component is recommended.

rotki before 1.44.2 Weak Key Derivation for Premium Cloud Backup Encryption

rotki before 1.44.2 contains a weak key derivation vulnerability that allows attackers to brute-force backups because the premium sync key is a single unsalted SHA-256 of the user password. Attackers who obtain an uploaded backup blob can run GPU-parallel offline password guessing and decrypt the database containing exchange API keys, secrets, wallet addresses and transaction history.

Use of Unsalted MD5 Password Hashes in CGM CLININET

The CGM CLININET application stores user passwords as unsalted MD5 hashes. This issue was fixed in versions 2026.MS1 and 2026.MS3

JuggleIM im-server through 1.8.16 Weak Password Hashing via Unsalted SHA-1

JuggleIM im-server through 1.8.16 contains a weak password hashing vulnerability that stores admin console passwords as unsalted SHA-1 digests via tools.SHA1 in services/accountservice.go. Attackers who obtain the accounts table through database access or backups can crack console passwords using precomputed tables or GPU brute force.

light0011 cms UserModel.class.php sha1 weak password hash

A security vulnerability has been detected in light0011 cms c774dce31c6df0055568a8d5c53d964d99be199d/f72cf46f601efb2a0618c3814cc2f61380b38930. Affected is the function sha1 of the file App/Home/Model/UserModel.class.php. The manipulation of the argument Password leads to password hash with insufficient computational effort. The attack may be initiated remotely. A high degree of complexity is needed for the attack. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

diem-project diem SHA1 PluginDmUser.class.php weak password hash

A vulnerability has been found in diem-project diem up to 5.1.3. This affects an unknown part of the file lib/model/doctrine/PluginDmUser.class.php of the component SHA1 Handler. Such manipulation of the argument salt/password leads to password hash with insufficient computational effort. The attack needs to be performed locally. The attack requires a high level of complexity. It is indicated that the exploitability is difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Jivejdon through 5.0 Unsalted MD5 Password Storage via AccountDaoSql

Jivejdon through 5.0 contains a weak password storage vulnerability that stores account passwords as unsalted MD5 digests via ToolsUtil.hash() in AccountDaoSql. Attackers who obtain the user table through database access or SQL injection can crack passwords with precomputed tables or GPU attacks.

Vikunja: Plaintext storage of password-reset/email-confirm tokens in database enables account takeover on DB read access

Vikunja is an open-source self-hosted task management platform. Versions prior to 2.4.0 store password-reset, email-confirmation, and account-deletion tokens in the `user_tokens` table in plaintext. If an attacker gains read access to the database through a backup leak, misconfigured storage, or SQL-level exposure, they can immediately use pending tokens to take over user accounts without knowing passwords. Version 2.4.0 fixes the issue.

novel through 3.5.0 Unsalted MD5 Password Storage

Xxyopen novel through 3.5.0 contains a weak password hashing vulnerability that allows attackers to recover plaintext passwords because UserServiceImpl.register() stores unsalted MD5 digests in user_info.password. Attackers who obtain the password column through a database leak or backup exposure can crack hashes with precomputed tables or GPU brute force and reuse credentials.

Payload: Password hashes use insufficient PBKDF2 iterations

Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. Payload versions from 3.0.0 before 3.90.0 and canary versions from 4.0.0-canary.0 before 4.0.0-canary.34 use a lower-than-recommended PBKDF2 work factor for password hashing, reducing the computational effort required to test recovered password hashes. This issue is fixed in versions 3.90.0 and 4.0.0-canary.34.

Cloak PBKDF2 field ignores the configured iteration count and runs only :size rounds

Use of Password Hash With Insufficient Computational Effort vulnerability in danielberkompas cloak_ecto and danielberkompas cloak allows an attacker who holds the hashed values and the configured secret to brute-force low-entropy plaintexts much faster than configured. The dump/1 callback that Cloak.Ecto.PBKDF2 (Cloak.Fields.PBKDF2 in cloak before the Ecto code moved to cloak_ecto) injects into a field module calls :pbkdf2.pbkdf2/4 with config[:size] in the iteration-count position. The :iterations setting is validated but never used. With the cloak_ecto defaults (iterations: 600_000, size: 32) each hash runs 32 PBKDF2 rounds instead of 600,000, so offline guessing of values such as email addresses costs about 18,750 times less than configured. This issue affects cloak_ecto: from 1.0.0-alpha.0 onward; cloak: from 0.7.0 before 1.0.0-alpha.0.

YzmCMS MD5 system.func.php password weak password hash

A weakness has been identified in YzmCMS up to 7.6. Impacted is the function Password of the file /common/function/system.func.php of the component MD5 Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument pass can lead to password hash with insufficient computational effort. The attack may be launched remotely. This attack is characterized by high complexity. The exploitability is considered difficult. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The vendor kindly explains: "Our regular release cycle is about 6 months. The last release was in the previous month, and our next scheduled version will be released in March 2027. We will implement the backward-compatible gradual hash migration feature in this upcoming release. (...) Before the new version is available, we will publish security mitigation guidance on our official documentation for existing deployers to reduce the risk."

The administrative password is hashed using a comparatively weak, fast algorithm for the credential store backing one authentication path, and the file containing that hash is written with permissions allowing it to be read by any local user. This is inconsistent with a separate, stronger hashing algorithm used for the same password on another authentication path. A party able to read this file, including a local user or a party with access to a configuration backup, could feasibly recover the underlying password through offline computation, compromising the administrative credential across every path that accepts it.

openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Weak Key Derivation via D-Bus

openssl_encrypt versions before 1.4.9 contain a weak key derivation vulnerability in the D-Bus CryptoService.EncryptFile handler that uses unstretched SHA-256 instead of Argon2id. Attackers can perform offline password guessing against encrypted files roughly six to seven orders of magnitude faster than documented protection by exploiting the missing key stretching and hash rounds.

openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Weak Pepper Key Derivation

openssl_encrypt versions before 1.4.9 derive the remote-pepper wrap key using unsalted HKDF-SHA256 or bare SHA-256 of the password, allowing identical keys across all users and files. Attackers with access to wrapped pepper blobs can precompute a single dictionary table and perform fleet-wide offline password guessing at hardware speed to recover user passwords.
