What is CVE-2016-2927?

The IBM BigFix Remote Control software prior to version 9.1.3 contains a security flaw where the set of encryption algorithms is not adequately restricted. This oversight allows remote attackers to potentially undermine cryptographic protections, enabling them to sniff network traffic and perform cryptographic attacks on the encrypted data. As a result, sensitive information may be exposed, posing significant risks to data integrity and confidentiality.
