Cisco Multiple Products Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm (CVE-2020-26139)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 502098

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The 802.11 standard that underpins Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA, WPA2, and WPA3) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) doesn't require that all fragments of a frame are encrypted under the same key. An adversary can abuse this to decrypt selected fragments when another device sends fragmented frames and the WEP, CCMP, or GCMP encryption key is periodically renewed.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
Please visit https://www.tenable.com/products/tenable-ot for more information.

Solution

Refer to the vendor advisory.
