CVE-2006-4068
5.0
Vector
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
Exploitability: 10.0 / Impact: 2.9
Source: NVD
Description
The pswd.js script relies on the client to calculate whether a username and password match hard-coded hashed values for a server, and uses a hashing scheme that creates a large number of collisions, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct offline brute force attacks. NOTE: this script might also allow attackers to generate the server-side "secret" URL without determining the original password, but this possibility was not discussed by the original researcher.
