What is CVE-2019-10908?

In Airsonic Media Server version 10.2.1, the software's password generation method relies on a weak pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) from the Java commons library. Specifically, the usage of java.util.Random with a 48-bit seed results in easily predictable output, enabling attackers to brute force passwords with minimal effort. This vulnerability may lead to unauthorized access and privilege escalation, posing significant risks to the server's security.
