Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in JHipster and JHipster Kotlin (version unknown). It has been rated as critical. This issue affects an unknown function of the component Generator. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a weak prng vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-338. The product uses a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in a security context, but the PRNG's algorithm is not cryptographically strong. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

A class generated by the Generator in JHipster before 6.3.0 and JHipster Kotlin through 1.1.0 produces code that uses an insecure source of randomness (apache.commons.lang3 RandomStringUtils). This allows an attacker (if able to obtain their own password reset URL) to compute the value for all other password resets for other accounts, thus allowing privilege escalation or account takeover.

The weakness was published 09/14/2019. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2019-16303 since 09/13/2019. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600.001 for this issue.

Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability.
