CVE-2001-1106
CVSS v2.0
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Sambar Server versions 5 and earlier
Description
The default configuration of the software uses a symmetric key compiled into the binary program for encrypting passwords. This could allow local users to break all user passwords by either cracking the key or modifying a copy of the program to call the decryption procedure.
Recommendations
For Sambar Server versions 5 and earlier, consider reconfiguring the password encryption to use a more secure method, such as generating unique keys for each user, to mitigate the risk of password compromise. As a temporary workaround, restrict local access to the server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
