Demo Examples

Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm

CWE-327

These code examples use the Data Encryption Standard (DES).


               
EVP_des_ecb();

               
des.initEncrypt(key2);

               
}
return $encryptedPassword;

Once considered a strong algorithm, DES now regarded as insufficient for many applications. It has been replaced by Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
