IBM Algo One, as used in MetaData Management Tools in UDS 4.7.0 through 5.0.0, ACSWeb in Algo Security Access Control Management 4.7.0 through 4.9.0, and ACSWeb in AlgoWebApps 5.0.0, does not encrypt login requests, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.

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.
