CVE-2010-5066

by Fred · 08/10/2012

The createRandomPassword function in includes/functions_common.php in Virtual War (aka VWar) 1.6.1 R2 uses a small range of values to select the seed argument for the PHP mt_srand function, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine randomly generated passwords via a brute-force attack.
