The S2 Security NetBox 2.x and 3.x, as used in the Linear eMerge 50 and 5000 and the Sonitrol eAccess, uses a weak hash algorithm for storing the Administrator password, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain privileged access by recovering the cleartext of this password.
Weaknesses in this category are related to the design and implementation of data confidentiality and integrity. Frequently these deal with the use of encoding techniques, encryption libraries, and hashing algorithms. The weaknesses in this category could lead to a degradation of the quality data if they are not addressed.
