Zikula before 1.3.1 uses the rand and srand PHP functions for random number generation, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat protection mechanisms based on randomization by predicting a return value, as demonstrated by the authid protection mechanism.
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.
