HIGHCVSS 7.5/10EPSS 0.22%
Last modified
CVE-2024-24553 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Bludit uses the SHA-1 hashing algorithm to compute password hashes. Thus, attackers could determine cleartext passwords with brute-force attacks due to the inherent speed of SHA-1. EPSS estimates a 0.22% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
Bludit uses the SHA-1 hashing algorithm to compute password hashes. Thus, attackers could determine cleartext passwords with brute-force attacks due to the inherent speed of SHA-1. In addition, the salt that is computed by Bludit is generated with a non-cryptographically secure function.
