Severity ?
6.4 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H
Summary
Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) hardware platforms running any version of Brocade Fabric OS software, which supports the license string format; contain cryptographic issues that could allow for the installation of forged or fraudulent license keys. This would allow attackers or a malicious party to forge a counterfeit license key that the Brocade Fabric OS platform would authenticate and activate as if it were a legitimate license key.
