Incomplete Fix for Password Hash Algorithm Vulnerability in Best Practical Solutions RT 3.x and 4.x

CVE-2011-2082 · MEDIUM Severity

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

The vulnerable-passwords script in Best Practical Solutions RT 3.x before 3.8.12 and 4.x before 4.0.6 does not update the password-hash algorithm for disabled user accounts, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to determine cleartext passwords, and possibly use these passwords after accounts are re-enabled, via a brute-force attack on the database. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2011-0009.
