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

Description

The code is generating RSA encryption keys with a size smaller than 2048 bits, which does not meet current security standards and can be easily broken by attackers. Using weak key sizes undermines the effectiveness of encryption.

Impact

Attackers could decrypt sensitive data, impersonate users, or tamper with protected information by exploiting the weak RSA keys. This exposes the application and its users to data breaches and loss of confidentiality, putting compliance and trust at risk.
