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-2016-10743 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2016-10743/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10743/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-10743","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10743/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-10743","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-10743","DLA-1733-1","GHSA-9m94-6895-mgv3","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-10743"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"hostapd wireless daemon","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can exploit a low-quality PRNG in hostapd to compromise cryptographic security, potentially bypassing authentication or encryption mechanisms.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"hostapd","vendor":"w1.fi"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-332","name":"Insufficient Entropy in PRNG"}],"description":"hostapd before 2.6 does not prevent use of the low-quality PRNG that is reached by an os_random() function call.","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-2016-10743","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"weak_cryptography","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation in Select2","id":"CVE-2016-10744"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Open redirect in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10742"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-03-23","related":[{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"Denial of service in W1.f1","id":"CVE-2019-5061","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-12"},{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"Denial of service in W1.f1","id":"CVE-2019-5062","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in hostapd","id":"CVE-2026-58374","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-30"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-37660","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-11"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-11555","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-26"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-30004","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-02"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit a low-quality PRNG in hostapd to compromise cryptographic security, potentially bypassing authentication or encryption mechanisms.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10743/"}
