Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2319)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.
The Encrypt Files feature in ConeXware PowerArchiver before 14.02.05 uses legacy ZIP encryption even if the AES 256-bit selection is chosen, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information via a known-plaintext attack.
