Descriptions

WD Discovery software executable files were signed with an unsafe SHA-1 hashing algorithm. An attacker could use this weakness to create forged certificate signatures due to the use of a hashing algorithm that is not collision-free. This could thereby impact the confidentiality of user content. This issue affects: Western Digital WD Discovery WD Discovery Desktop App versions prior to 4.4.396 on Mac; WD Discovery Desktop App versions prior to 4.4.396 on Windows.

Los archivos ejecutables del software WD Discovery estaban firmados con un algoritmo hash SHA-1 no seguro. Un atacante podría usar esta debilidad para crear firmas de certificados falsificadas debido al uso de un algoritmo de hashing que no está libre de colisiones. Esto podría afectar a la confidencialidad del contenido del usuario. Este problema afecta a: Western Digital WD Discovery WD Discovery Desktop App versiones anteriores a 4.4.396 en Mac; WD Discovery Desktop App versiones anteriores a 4.4.396 en Windows
