The encryption algorithms for enable and passwd commands on Cisco PIX Firewall can be executed quickly due to a limited number of rounds, which make it easier for an attacker to decrypt the passwords using brute force techniques.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes weak password encryption in Cisco PIX Firewall configuration secrets. If an attacker gets a saved configuration containing encrypted enable or passwd values, the algorithm can be checked quickly, making brute-force recovery easier. Exposure is most likely in legacy Cisco PIX Firewall devices or archived PIX configuration backups containing encrypted enable/passwd values. The provided data does not identify specific affected versions. Prioritize if Cisco PIX devices or old firewall configuration archives still exist. The main business risk is administrative password recovery from leaked configurations, not a new internet-facing exploit path. Mitigation focus: Inventory Cisco PIX Firewall systems and archived PIX configuration backups.; Check Cisco guidance for affected releases, fixes, or migration advice.; Rotate enable and passwd secrets if configuration confidentiality is uncertain..
