CVE-2005-0809 · HIGH Severity

AV:N/AC:L/AU:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

NotifyLink, when configured for client key retrieval, allows remote attackers to obtain AES keys via a direct request to /hwp/get.asp, then uses a weak encryption scheme (fixed byte reordering) to protect the key, which allows remote attackers to obtain the key via a brute force attack.
