Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm in froxlor/froxlor

Valid

Reported on

Oct 1st 2021


Description

Froxlor uses microtime to seed uniqid which is then hashed to produce a session token, microtime can be reasonably brute-forced/predicted, thus allowing for a relatively large-scale account-takeover attack or accurate targeted ones.

(Both microtime and uniqid are cryptographically insecure.)

Impact

This vulnerability is capable of allowing attackers to take over accounts.
