Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in OleumTech WIO DH2 Wireless Gateway (the affected version unknown). This affects an unknown part. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a weak prng vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-338. The product uses a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in a security context, but the PRNG's algorithm is not cryptographically strong. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, and integrity. The summary by CVE is:

OleumTech WIO DH2 Wireless Gateway and Sensor Wireless I/O Modules rely exclusively on a time value for entropy in key generation, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by predicting the time of project creation.

The weakness was disclosed 07/24/2014 by Lucas Apa with IOActive (Website). The advisory is shared at ics-cert.us-cert.gov. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2014-2362 since 03/13/2014. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1600.001 for this issue.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.
