CVSS v3.1 |
| crypto-js is a JavaScript library of crypto standards. Versions of crypto-js prior to 4.0.0 generate randomness in CryptoJS.lib.WordArray.random() using a custom variation of the Multiply-With-Carry pseudorandom number generator, seeded from Math.random(), instead of a cryptographically secure source. This generator was introduced in version 3.1.2-4 and remained present in nearly every 3.x release. Nominal requests for 128 or 256 bits of entropy through this function produce effective search spaces of approximately 2 to the 39th and 2 to the 47th possibilities, small enough to enumerate on commodity hardware. Downstream wallet applications that used CryptoJS.lib.WordArray.random() as the entropy source for BIP39 recovery phrases are affected, and an attacker who enumerates the reduced output space can recover the resulting private keys and control the associated funds. This issue is fixed in version 4.0.0. |
| IBM Langflow OSS contains a weak cryptographic key derivation vulnerability in the ensure_fernet_key() function. |
| IBM Maximo Application Suite 9.2, 9.1, and 9.0 could allow a remote attacker to tamper with session data due to the use of a weak HMAC session signing secret. |
| WireGuard Easy through 15.3.0, fixed in commit 66b292b, contains a cryptographically weak one-time link token generation vulnerability that allows unauthenticated network attackers to recover WireGuard peer credentials by brute-forcing a keyspace of at most 1000 candidate tokens per client ID, as the token is computed using CRC32 over a random value constrained to 0-999. Attackers can enumerate candidate tokens against the unauthenticated /cnf/:oneTimeLink route, which lacks rate limiting and does not validate token expiration, to obtain a peer's PrivateKey and PresharedKey and impersonate that peer on the VPN network. |
| A cryptographic
weakness exists in the Omada adoption protocol where session encryption keys
used to protect communications between controllers and managed devices may be
predictable due to insufficient entropy in session key generation.
An attacker
who successfully intercepts adoption-related communications may be able to recover
session encryption keys and decrypt affected communications. |
| osTicket 1.18.3 generates API keys using a predictable construction based on MD5 hashing. The use of MD5, combined with predictable inputs such as the current timestamp and client IP address, significantly reduces entropy. An attacker can approximate the key generation time and brute-force the key space within a feasible time window. |
| Use of a cryptographically weak random number generator in the GenerateRandomPassword function in bosh-windows-stemcell-builder allows a remote attacker to brute-force the resulting SSH login via TCP/22.
Affected versions: bosh-windows-stemcell-builder versions prior to v2019.98. |
| WebDyne::Session versions before 3.003_704 for Perl generate the session id insecurely.
The session handler generates the session id from an MD5 hash seeded with a call to the built-in rand() function. The rand function is passed a maximum value based on the process id, the epoch time and the reference address of the object, but this information will have no effect on the overall quality of the seed of the message digest.
The rand function is seeded by 32-bits and is predictable. It is considered unsuitable for cryptographic purposes.
Predictable session ids could allow an attacker to gain access to systems.
Note that WebDyne::Session versions 1.042 and earlier appear to be in separate distributions from WebDyne. |
| ExtremeXOS (EXOS) uses a challenge-response mechanism to authorize access to the privileged debug-mode function. The challenge value is generated using an insufficiently random source, which under certain conditions may allow an attacker to predict the expected response and activate debug-mode without authorization. Depending on device configuration and version, this may enable escalation to root-level access and persistent modification of the device software stack. Exploitation requires either a valid low-privilege account on the device (remote scenario) or physical serial console access (local scenario). This vulnerability is distinct from CVE-2017-14329, which addressed a different issue involving Python script privileges.
Extreme would like to thank Hadrien Barral (Université Gustave Eiffel) and Georges-Axel Jaloyan (French Ministry of the Interior) for responsible disclosure of their findings. |
| AdGuard Home is a network-wide software for blocking ads and tracking. Prior to 0.107.75, AdGuard Home's client-triggered DoQ forwarding path to a udp:// upstream reduced backend UDP DNS state by producing dns_id=0 or txid=0 and exposed a quoted-port ICMP source-port oracle, weakening DNS response matching for forwarded queries. This issue is fixed in version 0.107.75. |
| Use of Insufficiently Random Values, Protection Mechanism Failure vulnerability in Apache Wicket.
This issue affects Apache Wicket: from 9.0.0 through 9.23.0, from 10.0.0 through 10.9.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 10.10.0, which fixes the issue. |
| Joomla Extension - regularlabs.com - Insecure login URL keys in IP login extension - Persistent URL login keys were also generated using a non-cryptographic random generator with insufficient entropy. |
| A bug in the entropy initialization for SiWx917 causes the DRBG to use a predictable seed. As such, all random numbers generated in the Matter code use the same stream of numbers. This vulnerability was discovered after the impacted repository was already deprecated. |
| Generation of Predictable Numbers or Identifiers vulnerability in Erlang/OTP kernel (inet_res, inet_db modules) allows DNS Cache Poisoning.
The built-in DNS resolver (inet_res) uses a sequential, process-global 16-bit transaction ID for UDP queries and does not implement source port randomization. Response validation relies almost entirely on this ID, making DNS cache poisoning practical for an attacker who can observe one query or predict the next ID. This conflicts with RFC 5452 recommendations for mitigating forged DNS answers.
inet_res is intended for use in trusted network environments and with trusted recursive resolvers. Earlier documentation did not clearly state this deployment assumption, which could lead users to deploy the resolver in environments where spoofed DNS responses are possible.
This vulnerability is associated with program files lib/kernel/src/inet_db.erl and lib/kernel/src/inet_res.erl.
This issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 28.4.2, OTP 27.3.4.10 and OTP 26.2.5.19, corresponding to kernel from 3.0 before 10.6.2, 10.2.7.4 and 9.2.4.11. |
| GD::SecurityImage versions through 1.75 for Perl use rand to generate secrets.
The random method creates the challenge text used for the CAPTCHA by sampling characters from an array using Perl's built-in rand function, and generates a (by default) six-character string.
The built-in rand function is unsuitable for security applications because it is predictable and reversible. |
| Crypt::Password versions through 0.28 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts.
These versions use the built-in rand function, which is predictable and unsuitable for cryptography. |
| Net::BitTorrent versions before 2.1.0 for Perl generate the MSE Diffie-Hellman private key with a non-cryptographic PRNG.
The MSE (Message Stream Encryption) handshake derives its 160-bit Diffie-Hellman private key from Perl's rand(), a non-cryptographic drand48-class generator seeded once per process, in KeyExchange.pm. The shared secret and the RC4 keys derived from it (the SHA-1 of "keyA" or "keyB", the shared secret, and the infohash) therefore depend entirely on a predictable PRNG. The same handshake sends, in cleartext, random padding drawn from the same rand() sequence in _random_pad, immediately after the public key and the private-key draw.
A passive observer of the handshake recovers the PRNG state from the cleartext padding, reconstructs the private key, computes the shared secret from the peer's public key on the wire, derives the RC4 keys, and decrypts the connection, defeating the passive-observation obfuscation MSE provides. |
| BigBlueButton is an open-source virtual classroom. Prior to 3.0.21, bbb-web generated conference sessionToken values with insufficiently secure randomness in bbb-common-web/src/main/java/org/bigbluebutton/api/Util.java and bigbluebutton-web/grails-app/controllers/org/bigbluebutton/web/controllers/ApiController.groovy, allowing a session user to predict other users' conference session tokens and impersonate them. This issue is fixed in version 3.0.21. |
| EEPROM firmware on Raspberry Pi 5 and Compute Module 5 devices produced non-random KASLR and RNG seed values. This resulted in consistent kernel addresses across boots and devices, potentially making it easier to exploit other vulnerabilities. Additionally, the low-quality RNG seed may affect the quality of random numbers or delay booting while sufficient entropy is accumulated from other sources. |
| UltraVNC through 1.8.2.2 uses a cryptographically weak pseudo-random number generator to produce VNC authentication challenge bytes. In rfb/vncauth.c:119-129, the vncRandomBytes() function seeds libc rand() with time(0) + getpid() + rand() and generates a 16-byte challenge. The combined seed space is approximately 31 bits (libc rand() internal state) and is entirely determined by publicly-observable values (wall-clock time and process ID). An attacker who can observe the authentication exchange can enumerate the seed space and predict the challenge within seconds, enabling forgery or offline brute-forcing of responses. Note: on Windows, the active code path may use vncEncryptBytes2.cpp which calls CryptGenRandom; reachability on shipped Windows binaries requires compile-graph verification and is under investigation. |
