CVE-2015-5997

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Impero Education Pro before version 5105 uses a hardcoded CBC key and initialization vector derived from a hash of the Imp3ro string. This makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain plaintext data by sniffing the network for ciphertext data.

Risk Assessment

This vulnerability increases the risk of sensitive data leakage, which could lead to privacy breaches and loss of trust in the system.

Recommendation

It is recommended to upgrade to version 5105 or later to eliminate hardcoded keys and initialization vectors and improve data transmission security.
