Overview

CVE-2013-0941 is a low-severity vulnerability affecting rsa authentication_api. It was published on May 22, 2013 and has a CVSS 2.0 base score of 2.1 (LOW).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 2.0 base score of 2.1, rated LOW. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

EMC RSA Authentication API before 8.1 SP1, RSA Web Agent before 5.3.5 for Apache Web Server, RSA Web Agent before 5.3.5 for IIS, RSA PAM Agent before 7.0, and RSA Agent before 6.1.4 for Microsoft Windows use an improper encryption algorithm and a weak key for maintaining the stored data of the node secret for the SecurID Authentication API, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via cryptographic attacks on this data.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from rsa. Update authentication_api to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
