Summary

/opt/rv/Versions/CurrentVersion/Mcu/Config/Mcu.val in Cisco Unified Videoconferencing (UVC) System 5110 and 5115, when the Linux operating system is used, uses a weak hashing algorithm for the (1) administrator and (2) operator passwords, which makes it easier for local users to obtain sensitive information by recovering the cleartext values, aka Bug ID CSCti54010.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Signature Spoofing by Key Recreation
    An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by exploiting a cryptographic weakness in the signature algorithm or pseudorandom number generation and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.
