Vulnerability CVE-2018-16988
Published: 2019-05-02
| Description: |
An issue was discovered in Open XDMoD through 7.5.0. An authentication bypass (account takeover) exists due to a weak password reset mechanism. A brute-force attack against an MD5 rid value requires only 600 guesses in the plausible situation where the attacker knows that the victim has started a password-reset process (pass_reset.php, password_reset.php, XDUser.php) in the past few minutes. |
Type:
CWE-640 (Weak Password Recovery Mechanism for Forgotten Password)
