GHSA-58fg-62fg-3fcj — phpMyFAQ has Weak Cryptography - SHA1 for Password Hashing

The advisory, in context

Summary

Attachment passwords are hashed using SHA-1, a cryptographically broken algorithm. SHA-1 has been vulnerable to collision attacks since 2017 (SHAttered).

Details

Affected File : phpmyfaq/src/phpMyFAQ/Attachment/AbstractAttachment.php

Impact

An attacker can generate SHA-1 collisions to bypass attachment protection
Risk of password cracking if database is compromised
Estimated cracking time: < 1 minute for standard attachment

Solution

Use bcrypt:

public function setPassword(string $password): void
{
    $this->passwordHash = password_hash($password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);
}

public function verifyPassword(string $plainPassword): bool
{
    return password_verify($plainPassword, $this->passwordHash);
}

Affected packages

Start with the recorded fix for your release branch. Check your installed version and test compatibility before upgrading. Fixing this advisory does not rule out other vulnerabilities in the release.
