IBM PowerSC 1.3, 2.0, and 2.1 uses single-factor authentication which can lead to unnecessary risk of compromise when compared with the benefits of a dual-factor authentication scheme. IBM X-Force ID: 275114.

Weakness

The product uses an authentication algorithm that uses a single factor (e.g., a password) in a security context that should require more than one factor.
