The default configuration of EMC RSA BSAFE Toolkits and RSA Data Protection Manager (DPM) 20130918 uses the Dual Elliptic Curve Deterministic Random Bit Generation (Dual_EC_DRBG) algorithm, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging unspecified "security concerns," aka the ESA-2013-068 issue. NOTE: this issue has been SPLIT from CVE-2007-6755 because the vendor announcement did not state a specific technical rationale for a change in the algorithm; thus, CVE cannot reach a conclusion that a CVE-2007-6755 concern was the reason, or one of the reasons, for this change.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE concerns RSA cryptographic products that used Dual_EC_DRBG by default. The concern is not a normal software bug; it is about whether generated randomness could weaken encryption or other protections. The public record does not provide CVSS, confirmed exploitation, or a precise technical rationale from the vendor. Exposure is most likely where applications, services, or products used EMC RSA BSAFE Toolkits or RSA Data Protection Manager with the affected default configuration. The source bundle does not provide version ranges, CPEs, or downstream affected-product lists. Treat this as an inventory and cryptographic assurance issue. It is not KEV-listed and lacks severity scoring, but systems relying on affected defaults may require prompt vendor review because trust in encryption can be business-critical. Mitigation focus: Inventory use of EMC RSA BSAFE Toolkits and RSA DPM.; Check RSA or successor vendor guidance for ESA-2013-068.; Disable or replace Dual_EC_DRBG where vendor-supported alternatives exist..
