Rational Test Control Panel in IBM Rational Test Workbench and Rational Test Virtualization Server 8.0.0.x before 8.0.0.5, 8.0.1.x before 8.0.1.6, 8.5.0.x before 8.5.0.4, 8.5.1.x before 8.5.1.5, 8.6.0.x before 8.6.0.4, and 8.7.0.x before 8.7.0.2 uses the MD5 algorithm for password hashing, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass authentication via unspecified vectors.
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.
