VISAM VBASE Editor version 11.5.0.2 and VBASE Web-Remote Module allow weak hashing algorithm and insecure permissions which may allow a local attacker to bypass the password-protected mechanism through brute-force attacks, cracking techniques, or overwriting the password hash.
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.
