Weak Cryptography in FortiNAC (9.4.1, 9.2.6, 9.1.0) Enables MITM
CVE-2022-45858 Published on May 3, 2023
A use of a weak cryptographic algorithm vulnerability [CWE-327] in FortiNAC 9.4.1 and below, 9.2.6 and below, 9.1.0 all versions, 8.8.0 all versions, 8.7.0 all versions may increase the chances of an attacker to have access to sensitive information or to perform man-in-the-middle attacks.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2022-45858 is exploitable with network access, requires 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 small impact on confidentiality and integrity, and no impact on 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.
