Details
A vulnerability was found in ShashikantSingh09 P73_SimplePythonEncryption.py 1.1. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown code of the component RSA Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a inadequate encryption vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-326. The product stores or transmits sensitive data using an encryption scheme that is theoretically sound, but is not strong enough for the level of protection required. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:
Programs/P73_SimplePythonEncryption.py illustrates a simple Python encryption example using the RSA Algorithm. In versions prior to commit 6ce60b1, an attacker may be able to decrypt the data using brute force attacks and because of this the whole application can be impacted. This issue has been patched in commit 6ce60b1. A workaround involves increasing the key size, for RSA or DSA this is at least 2048 bits, for ECC this is at least 256 bits.
It is possible to read the advisory at github.com. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2025-46833 since 04/30/2025. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The attack can be launched remotely.
