Apache Derby 'BUILTIN' Authentication Insecure Password Hashing

According to its self-reported version number, the installation of Apache Derby running on the remote server performs a transformation on passwords that removes half the bits from most of the characters before hashing. This leads to a large number of hash collisions, letting passwords be easily...

Debian DSA-2150-1 : request-tracker3.6 - unsalted password hashing

It was discovered that Request Tracker, an issue tracking system, stored passwords in its database by using an insufficiently strong hashing method. If an attacker would have access to the password database, he could decode the passwords stored in it. %NASLMINLEVEL 70300 C Tenable Network Securit...

CVE-2010-4302

/opt/rv/Versions/CurrentVersion/Mcu/Config/Mcu.val in Cisco Unified Videoconferencing UVC System 5110 and 5115, when the Linux operating system is used, uses a weak hashing algorithm for the 1 administrator and 2 operator passwords, which makes it easier for local users to obtain sensitive...

UBUNTU-CVE-2009-4269

The password hash generation algorithm in the BUILTIN authentication functionality for Apache Derby before 10.6.1.0 performs a transformation that reduces the size of the set of inputs to SHA-1, which produces a small search space that makes it easier for local and possibly remote attackers to...

Ubuntu 8.10 : system-tools-backends regression (USN-663-1)

It was discovered that passwords changed or new users created via the 'Users and Groups' tool were created with 3DES hashing. This reduced the security of stored user passwords, and was a regression from the correct MD5 hashing. This update fixes the problem; future password changes will correct...
