CVE-2022-43851 Published on April 14, 2025
IBM Aspera Console information disclosure
IBM Aspera Console 3.4.0 through 3.4.4
uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2022-43851 can be exploited with network access, and does not require authorization privileges or user interaction. This vulnerability is consided to have a high level of attack complexity. The potential impact of an exploit of this vulnerability is considered to have a high impact on confidentiality, with no impact on integrity and availability.
Weakness Type
Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm
The use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm is an unnecessary risk that may result in the exposure of sensitive information. The use of a non-standard algorithm is dangerous because a determined attacker may be able to break the algorithm and compromise whatever data has been protected. Well-known techniques may exist to break the algorithm.
