- Defenders should verify inventory and deployment contexts for potential exposure.
- Remediation priority is high due to the critical CVSS score of 9.1.
Technical summary
The Omnispace Agora Project before version 26.10.0 contains an insecure randomness vulnerability that allows attackers to predict temporary or default account passwords generated by Txt::defaultPassword() using PHP's uniqid() function based on server time in microseconds. Attackers who observe or approximate the account creation time can compute the predictable password and take over the account before the legitimate user logs in. The vulnerability has a critical CVSS score of 9.1, indicating a high severity level. Defenders should prioritize remediation and assess exposure.
Defensive priority
High
Recommended defensive actions
- Review and update Omnispace Agora Project to version 26.10.0 or later
- Implement additional authentication and authorization measures
- Monitor for suspicious account activity
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
Evidence notes
The CVE record and source item describe a predictable default password vulnerability in Omnispace Agora Project before version 26.10.0. The vulnerability is caused by the use of PHP's uniqid() function, which generates temporary or default account passwords based on server time in microseconds. This allows attackers to predict and compute the password if they observe or approximate the account creation time.
