Summary
** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** [An attacker can capture an authenticating hash
and utilize it to create new sessions. The hash is also a poorly salted MD5
hash, which could result in a successful brute force password attack. Impacted product is BCM-WEB version 3.3.X. Recommended fix: Upgrade to a supported product such
as Alerton
ACM.] Out of an abundance of caution, this CVE ID is being assigned to
better serve our customers and ensure all who are still running this product understand
that the product is end of life and should be removed or upgraded.
