An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-7278 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Otrs Otrs. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-7278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-7278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-7278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-7278/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-7278","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-7278","GHSA-rgfv-29jm-8wcc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OTRS ticket system","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can decrypt S/MIME emails due to low entropy from improper OpenSSL RANDFILE configuration in OTRS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"otrs","vendor":"otrs"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The S/MIME feature in Open Ticket Request System (OTRS) before 2.2.5, and 2.3.x before 2.3.0-beta1, does not properly configure the RANDFILE environment variable for OpenSSL, which might make it easier for remote attackers to decrypt e-mail messages that had lower than intended entropy available for cryptographic operations, related to inability to write to the seeding file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"otrs:otrs","products":["otrs:otrs"],"type":"weak_cryptography","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7277"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2011-03-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"SQL Injection via MySQL Quote Method","id":"CVE-2026-48188","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-4717","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-14635","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-21"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"SSL Certificates are not checked for E-Mail Handling","id":"CVE-2023-5422","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-16"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Password is send back to client","id":"CVE-2023-6254","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-27"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Information disclouse and DoS via websocket push events","id":"CVE-2023-2534","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-08"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"DoS attack using email","id":"CVE-2022-39052","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-10-17"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can decrypt S/MIME emails due to low entropy from improper OpenSSL RANDFILE configuration in OTRS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-7278/"}
