CVE-2006-0898
Last modified
CVE-2006-0898 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Crypt::CBC Perl module 2.16 and earlier, when running in RandomIV mode, uses an initialization vector (IV) of 8 bytes, which results in weaker encryption when used with a cipher that requires a larger block size than 8 bytes, such as Rijndael.. EPSS estimates a 1.40% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
