DEBIAN-CVE-2023-46233

crypto-js is a JavaScript library of crypto standards. Prior to version 4.2.0, crypto-js PBKDF2 is 1,000 times weaker than originally specified in 1993, and at least 1,300,000 times weaker than current industry standard. This is because it both defaults to SHA1, a cryptographic hash algorithm...

CVE-2023-46133 crypto-es PBKDF2 1,000 times weaker than specified in 1993 and 1.3M times weaker than current standard

CryptoES is a cryptography algorithms library compatible with ES6 and TypeScript. Prior to version 2.1.0, CryptoES PBKDF2 is 1,000 times weaker than originally specified in 1993, and at least 1,300,000 times weaker than current industry standard. This is because it both defaults to SHA1, a...

CVE-2023-46133

CVE-2023-46133 documents a weakness in CryptoES prior to v2.1.0 where PBKDF2 was configured by default to use SHA-1 with a single iteration (1,000), making it far weaker than the 1993 specification and current standards. This can impact password protection and digital signatures. A patch is avail...

Why We Don’t Generate Elliptic Curves Every Day

With all the talk recently of how the NIST curve parameters were selected, a reasonable observer could wonder why we all use the same curves instead of generating them along with keys, like we do for Diffie-Hellman parameters. You might have memories of waiting around for openssl dhparam to run a...

The vulnerability of implementations of standards PKCS#1 v1.5, OAEP, and RASASVP in the NSS (Network Security Services) library allows a attacker to execute the Bleichenbacher attack or the Marvin attack.

The vulnerability of implementations of standards PKCS1 v1.5, OAEP, and RASASVP in the NSS Network Security Services library set is related to insufficient protection of service data due to timing discrepancies. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute the Bleichenbacher...

golang: crypto/tls: slow verification of certificate chains containing large RSA keys

A denial of service vulnerability was found in the Golang Go package caused by an uncontrolled resource consumption flaw. By persuading a victim to use a specially crafted certificate with large RSA keys, a remote attacker can cause a client/server to expend significant CPU time verifying...

CVE-2022-26942

The Motorola MTM5000 series firmwares lack pointer validation on arguments passed to trusted execution environment TEE modules. Two modules are used, one responsible for KVL key management and the other for TETRA cryptographic functionality. In both modules, an adversary with non-secure superviso...

CVE-2023-5388

It was discovered that the numerical library used in NSS for RSA cryptography leaks information whether high order bits of the RSA decryption result are zero. This information can be used to mount a Bleichenbacher or Manger like attack against all RSA decryption operations. As the leak happens...

Bounty to Recover NIST’s Elliptic Curve Seeds

This is a fun challenge: The NIST elliptic curves that power much of modern cryptography were generated in the late 90s by hashing seeds provided by the NSA. How were the seeds generated? Rumor has it that they are in turn hashes of English sentences, but the person who picked them, Dr. Jerry...
