CVE-2012-2173

Status: ModifiedMedium (5)—

The ODBC driver in IBM Security AppScan Source 7.x and 8.x before 8.6 sends an SHA-1 hash of the connection password during connections to a solidDB database, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
