CWE CWE-326: Inadequate Encryption Strength
OWASP A03:2017 - Sensitive Data Exposure
Confidence Level Medium
Impact Level Medium
Likelihood Level Low

Description

The code uses outdated or insecure SSL/TLS versions (such as SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1.0, or TLSv1.1) for secure connections. These protocols are deprecated and contain known vulnerabilities that make encrypted communications unsafe.

Impact

Attackers could exploit weaknesses in these old protocols to intercept or manipulate sensitive data, perform man-in-the-middle attacks, or decrypt confidential information. This can lead to data breaches, loss of user trust, and regulatory compliance violations.
