Vulnerability in Best Practical Solutions, LLC's Request Tracker prior to v5.0.8, where the Triple DES (3DES) cryptographic algorithm is used to protect emails sent with S/MIME encryption. Triple DES is considered obsolete and insecure due to its susceptibility to birthday attacks, which could compromise the confidentiality of encrypted messages.
CVE-2025-2545
This low-severity CVE scores 2.3 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 94% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
