CVE-2024-1579Network attack vector

Unauthenticated session hijacking via insufficient PRNG seeding

Published Apr 29, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Incorrect PRNG seeding in Secomea GateManager before 11.2.624071020 allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions. The Webserver module seeds its pseudorandom generator incorrectly, but Secomea has not disclosed the generator, seed source, or session-token construction. The attack is network-reachable without credentials or user interaction but requires high-complexity conditions; success grants the victim session's authorized access.
