CVE-2024-52521

16
FAUCET Score

CVE-2024-52521 affects Nextcloud Server, where the use of MD5 hashes for background job uniqueness checks could lead to legitimate jobs not being queued due to false positives. This vulnerability is rated Medium (CVSS 5.3) with a low impact on integrity, as it primarily causes a denial of service for specific background tasks rather than data compromise. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion, indicating a low current threat level. Nextcloud recommends upgrading to versions 28.0.10, 29.0.7, or 30.0.0 to mitigate this issue by switching to SHA256 hashing.
