CVE-2021-36751

Status: ModifiedMedium (4.2)—

ENC DataVault 7.2.3 and before, and OEM versions, use an encryption algorithm that is vulnerable to data manipulation (without knowledge of the key). This is called ciphertext malleability. There is no data integrity mechanism to detect this manipulation.

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).
