# Apache StreamPipes: Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in Recovery Token Generation

Advisory record · `GHSA-cf3q-vg8w-mw84`

- **Identifiers:** `GHSA-cf3q-vg8w-mw84` · `CVE-2024-29868`
- **State:** Confirmed
- **Severity:** CVSS 9.1 Critical
- **Critical:** Yes: CVSS 9+
- **Weakness (CWE):** [CWE-338](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/338.html)
- **Tags:** [Weak cryptography or TLS](https://agentprime.io/advisories/tag/weak-crypto.md)

## Critical

Critical, because:

- CVSS score 9.1: 9.0 or more.

How we decide what’s critical: <https://agentprime.io/advisories/critical.md>

## Affected packages

- `org.apache.streampipes:streampipes-resource-management` (Maven): affected `>=0.69.0, <0.95.0`; fixed in `0.95.0`

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> Apache StreamPipes versions 0.69.0 through 0.93.0 are affected, as listed in the streampipes-resource-management package (fixed in 0.95.0). The user self-registration and password recovery mechanism uses a cryptographically weak pseudo-random number generator for recovery tokens, so an attacker can guess a token within a reasonable time and take over a user's account. Upgrade to Apache StreamPipes 0.95.0 or later.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-cf3q-vg8w-mw84>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
