CVE-2021-36751 affects ENC DataVault 7.2.3 and earlier, as well as OEM versions, due to a ciphertext malleability vulnerability in its encryption algorithm. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate encrypted data without knowing the encryption key, as there is no integrity mechanism to detect such alterations. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 4.2 (Medium), indicating a physical attack vector with high attack complexity, leading to a high impact on integrity but no impact on confidentiality or availability. Currently, there is no public exploit code available (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and it is not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, suggesting no active exploitation. Community discussion and media coverage are minimal, with only one article from SecurityWeek.
