The Data Camouflage (aka FairCom Standard Encryption) algorithm in FairCom c-treeACE does not ensure that a decryption key is needed for accessing database contents, which allows context-dependent attackers to read cleartext database records by copying a database to another system that has a certain default configuration.
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.
