Weakness (CWE)
CWE-341: Predictable from Observable State
A number or object is predictable based on observations that the attacker can make about the state of the system or network, such as time, process ID, etc.
How to prevent it (3 mitigations)
-
Implementation
Increase the entropy used to seed a PRNG.
-
Architecture and Design, Requirements
Use products or modules that conform to FIPS 140-2 [REF-267] to avoid obvious entropy problems. Consult FIPS 140-2 Annex C ("Approved Random Number Generators").
-
Implementation
Use a PRNG that periodically re-seeds itself using input from high-quality sources, such as hardware devices with high entropy. However, do not re-seed too frequently, or else the entropy source might block.

Predictable Object Identifier vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver AS Java (IIOP Service)
Due to the lack of randomness in assigning Object Identifiers in the SAP NetWeaver AS JAVA IIOP service, an authenticated attacker with low privileges could predict the identifiers by conducting a brute force search. By leveraging knowledge of several identif…

Weak Session Cookie Entropy
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability could allow an unauthenticated attacker to conduct brute force guessing and account takeover as the session cookies are predictable, potentially allowing the attackers to gain root, admin or user access and reset p…
