PatchTheCVECVE-2024-45723: The goTenna Pro ATAK Plugin does not use SecureRandom when generating passwords for sharing cryptographic key
CVE-2024-45723 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.5) affecting gotenna. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
The goTenna Pro ATAK Plugin does not use SecureRandom when generating passwords for sharing cryptographic keys. The random function in use makes it easier for attackers to brute force this password if the broadcasted encryption key is captured over RF. This only applies to the optional broadcast of an encryption key, so it is advised to share the key with local QR code for higher security operations.
Why this priority
- No elevated risk signals yet
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
