What is CVE-2024-36066?

The CMP CLI client in KeyFactor EJBCA versions prior to 8.3.1 has a vulnerability stemming from the use of a hardcoded salt of only 6 octets. This is non-compliant with the security standards outlined in RFC 4211, which states that salt values should be at least 8 octets long. The inadequacy of the salt length can lead to increased susceptibility to man-in-the-middle attacks and dictionary attacks, thereby compromising message integrity and authentication when utilizing the password-based MAC option.
