IBM Security Access Manager Appliance 8.0.0 through 8.0.1.6 and 9.0.0 through 9.0.3.1 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information. IBM X-Force ID: 128605.

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.
