Summaryinfo

A vulnerability has been found in Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the component Oracle Advanced Security Encryption. This manipulation causes entropy. This vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2023-34363. No exploit exists. The affected component should be upgraded.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown part of the component Oracle Advanced Security Encryption. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a entropy vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-332. The lack of entropy available for, or used by, a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) can be a stability and security threat. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

An issue was discovered in Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC before 08.02.2770 for Oracle. When using Oracle Advanced Security (OAS) encryption, if an error is encountered initializing the encryption object used to encrypt data, the code falls back to a different encryption mechanism that uses an insecure random number generator to generate the private key. It is possible for a well-placed attacker to predict the output of this random number generator, which could lead to an attacker decrypting traffic between the driver and the database server. The vulnerability does not exist if SSL / TLS encryption is used.

The weakness was disclosed 06/09/2023. The advisory is shared at community.progress.com. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2023-34363 since 06/02/2023. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600.001 for this issue.

Upgrading to version 08.02.2770 eliminates this vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the vulnerability database at EUVD (EUVD-2023-38443). If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
