CVE-2021-39182
EUVD-2021-007008.11.2021, 15:15
EnroCrypt is a Python module for encryption and hashing. Prior to version 1.1.4, EnroCrypt used the MD5 hashing algorithm in the hashing file. Beginners who are unfamiliar with hashes can face problems as MD5 is considered an insecure hashing algorithm. The vulnerability is patched in v1.1.4 of the product. As a workaround, users can remove the `MD5` hashing function from the file `hashing.py`.Enginsight

Common Weakness Enumeration
- CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic AlgorithmThe use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm is an unnecessary risk that may result in the exposure of sensitive information.
- CWE-326 - Inadequate Encryption StrengthThe software stores or transmits sensitive data using an encryption scheme that is theoretically sound, but is not strong enough for the level of protection required.
