Inadequate Encryption Strength

Overview openssl-encrypt is an A package for secure file encryption and decryption based on modern ciphers using heavy-compute-load chaining of hashing and KDF to generate strong encryption password based on users provided password to ensure secure encryption of files Affected versions of this...

CVE-2026-74889

opensslencrypt versions before 1.4.0 use HKDF with no salt and static info parameter in key normalization functions, reducing entropy extraction and determinism. Attackers can exploit predictable key derivation with identical inputs to weaken cryptographic security against multi-target attacks...
