CVE-2008-3280 (GCVE-0-2008-3280)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2021-05-21 19:23 – Updated: 2024-08-07 09:28

Summary
It was found that various OpenID Providers (OPs) had TLS Server Certificates that used weak keys, as a result of the Debian Predictable Random Number Generator (CVE-2008-0166). In combination with the DNS Cache Poisoning issue (CVE-2008-1447) and the fact that almost all SSL/TLS implementations do not consult CRLs (currently an untracked issue), this means that it is impossible to rely on these OPs.
