Official description

Weak password requirement vulnerability in Lamassu Bitcoin ATM Douro machines, in its 7.1 version , which allows a local user to interact with the machine where the application is installed, retrieve stored hashes from the machine and crack long 4-character passwords using a dictionary attack.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Weak Password Requirements

The product does not require that users should have strong passwords.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Consider a second authentication factor beyond the password, which prevents the password from being a single point of failure. See CWE-308 for further information.
  • Consider implementing a password complexity meter to inform users when a chosen password meets the required attributes.
