AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Alibaba version 2.0

Description: The genkey utility in Alibaba generates RSA key pairs with an exponent of 1. This results in transactions being sent in cleartext, indicating a potential security issue.

Recommendations: For Alibaba version 2.0, consider regenerating RSA key pairs with a secure exponent to prevent transactions from being sent in cleartext. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to sensitive transactions until a secure key pair can be generated.
