Summary
Insecure Cryptography Algorithm in parsel
Details
All versions of parsel use an insecure cryptography algorithm. The package uses aes-256-cbc without integrity checks, which renders the ciphertext vulnerable to bit-flipping attacks.
Recommendation
The package is deprecated and will not be updated. Consider using an alternative package.
