Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-03-18 22:15 - Updated: 2025-12-30 13:43
Severity ?
2.6 (Low) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
Summary
SecureProps is a PHP library designed to simplify the encryption and decryption of property data in objects. A vulnerability in SecureProps version 1.2.0 and 1.2.1 involves a regex failing to detect tags during decryption of encrypted data. This occurs when the encrypted data has been encoded with `NullEncoder` and passed to `TagAwareCipher`, and contains special characters such as `\n`. As a result, the decryption process is skipped since the tags are not detected. This causes the encrypted data to be returned in plain format. The vulnerability affects users who implement `TagAwareCipher` with any base cipher that has `NullEncoder` (not default). The patch for the issue has been released. Users are advised to update to version 1.2.2. As a workaround, one may use the default `Base64Encoder` with the base cipher decorated with `TagAwareCipher` to prevent special characters in the encrypted string from interfering with regex tag detection logic. This workaround is safe but may involve double encoding since `TagAwareCipher` uses `NullEncoder` by default.

      "value": "SecureProps es una librer\u00eda PHP dise\u00f1ada para simplificar el cifrado y descifrado de datos de propiedades en objetos. Una vulnerabilidad en SecureProps versi\u00f3n 1.2.0 y 1.2.1 implica que una expresi\u00f3n regular no detecta etiquetas durante el descifrado de datos cifrados. Esto ocurre cuando los datos cifrados se codificaron con `NullEncoder` y se pasaron a `TagAwareCipher` y contienen caracteres especiales como `\\n`. Como resultado, se omite el proceso de descifrado ya que no se detectan las etiquetas. Esto hace que los datos cifrados se devuelvan en formato plano. La vulnerabilidad afecta a los usuarios que implementan `TagAwareCipher` con cualquier cifrado base que tenga `NullEncoder` (no predeterminado). Se ha publicado el parche para el problema. Se recomienda a los usuarios que actualicen a la versi\u00f3n 1.2.2. Como workaround, se puede utilizar el `Base64Encoder` predeterminado con el cifrado base decorado con `TagAwareCipher` para evitar que los caracteres especiales en la cadena cifrada interfieran con la l\u00f3gica de detecci\u00f3n de etiquetas regex. Este workaround es seguro pero puede implicar doble codificaci\u00f3n ya que `TagAwareCipher` usa `NullEncoder` de forma predeterminada."
