IBM AppScan Source uses a one-way hash without salt to encrypt highly sensitive information, which could allow a local attacker to decrypt information more easily.

Weakness

The product stores or transmits sensitive data using an encryption scheme that is theoretically sound, but is not strong enough for the level of protection required.
