CVE-2026-53692
MediumCVSS 5.9Summary
Redeight CMS version 1.0 stores user passwords using the MD5 algorithm without a salt. MD5 is a cryptographically broken algorithm and the lack of salting allows attackers to easily reverse the hashes using rainbow tables.
Risk Assessment
Attackers who obtain the password hashes can quickly recover plaintext credentials, leading to account takeover and potential compromise of the entire system.
Recommendation
Immediately change the password storage method to a secure salted algorithm such as bcrypt, Argon2, or PBKDF2, and force a password reset for all users.
Other vulnerabilities in Redeight CMS
See all- CVE-2026-53691High
An unrestricted file upload vulnerability in Redeight CMS 1.0 allows authenticated attackers to achieve remote code execution (RCE) via the POST /admin/index.php?module=pages&mode=FileAdd endpoint. The application fails to validate file extensions and MIME types, permitting arbitrary PHP scripts to be uploaded to the /uploads/files/ directory where they are executed by the web server.
- CVE-2026-53690Critical
An SQL Injection vulnerability exists in Redeight CMS version 1.0 via the "userEmail" parameter in the POST "/admin/index.php" login endpoint. The application fails to sanitize user input and directly interpolates it into SQL queries without using prepared statements, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands and extract sensitive database information.
Original NVD description (English source)
Redeight CMS version 1.0 uses the MD5 algorithm without a salt to store user passwords. Because MD5 is a cryptographically broken algorithm and lacks salting, attackers who obtain the password hashes can trivially reverse them using rainbow tables, leading to the exposure of plaintext credentials.
