Vulnerability Data

ShowMojo MojoBox Digital Lockbox 1.4 is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass. The implementation of the lock opening mechanism via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is vulnerable to replay attacks. A malicious user is able to intercept BLE requests and replicate them to…

Likely Mitigating Controls AI

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

AC-9 Previous Logon Notification
addresses: CWE-294

Allows detection of capture-replay attacks by showing the replayed logon's timestamp as the last logon.

SC-23 Session Authenticity
addresses: CWE-294

Protects against replay of captured session tokens or credentials by requiring authenticated, fresh session channels.

SC-40 Wireless Link Protection
addresses: CWE-294

Wireless link protections commonly incorporate replay protection, reducing the exploitability of capture-replay weaknesses.

SC-45 System Time Synchronization
addresses: CWE-294

Accurate synchronized time enables tight timestamp windows that directly limit capture-replay windows in authentication protocols.

Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.AA-04 mostly match
prevents

Protecting and verifying identity assertions prevents replay of captured authentication material.

PR.DS-02 mostly match
prevents

Encryption and integrity protections for data-in-transit directly block capture-replay of credentials or tokens.

DE.CM-01 partial match
prevents

Network monitoring may detect anomalous replays after the fact but does not prevent the design flaw.

PR.AA-03 partial match
prevents

Strong authentication methods can reduce replay risk but do not inherently address captured messages.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

A.8.24 Use of cryptography mostly match
prevents

Cryptographic protections (e.g., nonces, timestamps, message authentication codes) make captured authentication messages unusable for replay.

A.8.5 Secure authentication mostly match
prevents

Secure authentication mechanisms directly prevent replay attacks by requiring fresh, non-replayable credentials or tokens.

A.8.20 Networks security partial match
mitigates

Network security controls such as encryption and integrity protection reduce the feasibility of capturing and replaying authentication traffic.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements can mandate replay-resistant authentication designs, but the control itself does not prescribe the technical measures.
