SUSE Lifecycle Management Server (SLMS) before 1.3.7 does not generate a new secret key when the service starts, which allows remote attackers to defeat intended cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging knowledge of this key from a product installation elsewhere.
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.
