FortiSIEM <6.7.1 Remote BruteForce via Outdated Hashing (CWE-327) GUI endpoints
CVE-2022-43949 Published on June 13, 2023
A use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm [CWE-327] in Fortinet FortiSIEM before 6.7.1 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to perform brute force attacks on GUI endpoints via taking advantage of outdated hashing methods.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2022-43949 can be exploited with local system access, and does not require authorization privileges or user interaction. This vulnerability is considered to have a low 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.
