Vulnerability Data

The SourceCodester Android application "Corona Virus Tracker App India" 1.0 uses MD5 for digest authentication in `OkHttpClientWrapper.java`. The `handleDigest()` function employs `MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5")` to hash credentials. MD5 is a broken cryptographic algorithm known to allow hash collisions. This makes the authentication…

mechanism vulnerable to replay, spoofing, or brute-force attacks, potentially leading to unauthorized access. The vulnerability corresponds to CWE-327 and aligns with OWASP M5: Insufficient Cryptography and MASVS MSTG-CRYPTO-4.

T1110.002 Password Cracking Credential Access
Adversaries may use password cracking to attempt to recover usable credentials, such as plaintext passwords, when credential material such as password hashes are obtained.

Why these techniques?

MD5 usage in digest authentication enables brute-force attacks (T1110), offline password cracking from captured digests (T1110.002), and spoofing via hash collisions (T1606), leading to unauthorized access.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SC-13 Cryptographic Protection good match
prevent

Mandates use of approved cryptographic algorithms and protections, directly prohibiting MD5 for credential hashing in digest authentication.

IA-5 Authenticator Management good match
prevent

Requires secure management and strength of authenticators, preventing reliance on broken MD5 hashes for credential verification.

AC-3 Access Enforcement partial match
prevent

Enforces validated access decisions, which the weak MD5-based digest auth fails to support, allowing unauthorized access.

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 full match
prevents

Protecting, conveying, and verifying identity assertions specifically prevents the spoofing that enables authentication bypass.

PR.AA-03 mostly match
prevents

Requiring authentication of users/services/hardware directly counters spoofing-based bypass when strong methods are used.

PR.AA-02 partial match
prevents

Proofing and binding identities reduces spoofing opportunities during enrollment but does not address runtime authentication implementation flaws.

A.8.5 Secure authentication full match
degrades

Secure authentication control directly mitigates authentication bypass by spoofing.

A.5.17 Authentication information mostly match
degrades

Authentication information management directly addresses credential handling that prevents spoofing.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
detects

Security testing can detect spoofing vulnerabilities but does not prevent them by itself.

A.5.15 Access control partial match
prevents

Access control policy reduces spoofing opportunities but does not prescribe authentication mechanisms.

A.5.16 Identity management partial match
prevents

Identity management supports unique identities but does not guarantee resistance to spoofing.

A.5.18 Access rights partial match
prevents

Access rights assignment limits exposure but does not enforce authentication strength.
