Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2017-20240

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - Crypt::PBKDF2 versions before 0.261630 for Perl are vulnerable to timing attacks. These versions use Perl's built-in eq comparison. Discrepancies in timing coul...

CVE-2026-9641: Use of Password Hash With Insufficient Computational Effort

Crypt::PBKDF2 versions before 0.261630 for Perl have a weak default algorithm and number of iterations. The default algorithm is HMAC-SHA1, which should only be used for legacy systems. These versions default to using 1000 iterations. Depending on the chosen algorithm, 220,000 to 1,400,000...

CVE-2026-9638: Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

Crypt::PBKDF2 versions before 0.261630 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts. These versions use the built-in rand function, which is predictable and unsuitable for cryptography...
