### [CVE-2012-2143](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2143) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Product&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Version&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Vulnerability&message=n%2Fa&color=brighgreen) ### Description The crypt_des (aka DES-based crypt) function in FreeBSD before 9.0-RELEASE-p2, as used in PHP, PostgreSQL, and other products, does not process the complete cleartext password if this password contains a 0x80 character, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain access via an authentication attempt with an initial substring of the intended password, as demonstrated by a Unicode password. ### POC #### Reference No PoCs from references. #### Github - https://github.com/ARPSyndicate/cvemon - https://github.com/DButter/whitehat_public - https://github.com/Dokukin1/Metasploitable - https://github.com/Iknowmyname/Nmap-Scans-M2 - https://github.com/NikulinMS/13-01-hw - https://github.com/Zhivarev/13-01-hw - https://github.com/smabramov/Vulnerabilities-and-attacks-on-information-systems - https://github.com/zzzWTF/db-13-01
