CVE-2018-9426 (GCVE-0-2018-9426)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-12-02 21:30 – Updated: 2024-12-03 15:07
VLAI
Summary
In  RsaKeyPairGenerator::getNumberOfIterations of RSAKeyPairGenerator.java, an incorrect implementation could cause weak RSA key pairs being generated. This could lead to crypto vulnerability with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Bulletin Fix: The fix is designed to correctly implement the key generation according to FIPS standard.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
