Submit #1003761: cemtan sar2html 4.0.0 Hardcoded Credentialsinfo

Titelcemtan sar2html 4.0.0 Hardcoded Credentials
Beschreibungsar2html 4.0.0 contains a hardcoded Flask SECRET_KEY directly in the application source code (sar2html.py, line 350): app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = 'sar209@dnmduf8!23jQa' The SECRET_KEY is used by Flask to cryptographically sign session cookies. Any attacker with read access to the public repository can retrieve this value and use it to forge valid session cookies for any user account, effectively bypassing session-based authentication controls. The key is static across all deployments that use the default source code without modification, meaning all default installations share the same compromised secret. Affected component: sar2html.py, line 350 Attack vector: Network Privileges required: None User interaction: None CWE: CWE-798 (Use of Hard-coded Credentials) CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
