Insecure Cryptographic Algorithm in sysPass 2.x

CVE-2017-5999 · MEDIUM Severity

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

An issue was discovered in sysPass 2.x before 2.1, in which an algorithm was never sufficiently reviewed by cryptographers. The fact that inc/SP/Core/Crypt.class is using the MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256() function (the 256-bit block version of Rijndael, not AES) instead of MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 (real AES) could help an attacker to create unknown havoc in the remote system.
