CVE-2007-6755: Dell Bsafe Crypto-C-Micro-Edition

Medium severity, CVSS 5.8. EPSS: 1.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The NIST SP 800-90A default statement of the Dual Elliptic Curve Deterministic Random Bit Generation (Dual_EC_DRBG) algorithm contains point Q constants with a possible relationship to certain "skeleton key" values, which might allow context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging knowledge of those values. NOTE: this is a preliminary CVE for Dual_EC_DRBG; future research may provide additional details about point Q and associated attacks, and could potentially lead to a RECAST or REJECT of this CVE.

Affected products

• Dell Bsafe Crypto-C-Micro-Edition: from 3.0.0.0, up to and including 3.0.0.20
• Dell Bsafe Crypto-J: version 5.0 only; version 5.0.1 only
