CVE-2014-2942

Cobham Aviator 700D and 700E satellite terminals use an improper algorithm for PIN codes, which makes it easier for attackers to obtain a privileged terminal session by calculating the superuser code, and then leveraging physical access or terminal access to enter this code...

CVE-2014-2942

Cobham Aviator 700D/700E satellite terminals are affected by CVE-2014-2942 due to use of a broken/risky cryptographic algorithm to generate PINs. This enables a local, unauthenticated attacker to calculate a superuser PIN and gain full control of the terminal, given physical access or access to t...

CVE-2014-5413

Schneider Electric StruxureWare SCADA Expert ClearSCADA 2010 R3 through 2014 R1 uses the MD5 algorithm for an X.509 certificate, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof servers via a cryptographic attack against this algorithm...

CVE-2014-5413

CVE-2014-5413 affects Schneider Electric StruxureWare SCADA Expert ClearSCADA (2010 R3 through 2014 R1). The root issue is weak cryptographic controls: the self-signed web certificate uses MD5, enabling potential cryptographic spoofing of servers. Additionally, ICS-CERT describes a cross-site scr...

CVE-2014-5413 Schneider Electric SCADA Expert ClearSCADA Cryptographic Issues

Schneider Electric StruxureWare SCADA Expert ClearSCADA 2010 R3 through 2014 R1 uses the MD5 algorithm for an X.509 certificate, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof servers via a cryptographic attack against this algorithm...

More 1024-Bit Certificates to Be Deprecated in Firefox

When Mozilla released Firefox 32 last week, the company removed several root certificates from the trust store for the browser. The move wasn’t because the certificates were fraudulent or the CAs that issued them were compromised, but because the certificates use 1024-bit keys. This is the first...
