Mojic is a CLI tool to transform readable C code into an unrecognizable chaotic stream of emojis. Prior to 2.1.4, the CipherEngine uses a standard equality operator (!==) to verify the HMAC-SHA256 integrity seal during the decryption phase. This creates an Observable Timing Discrepancy (CWE-208), allowing a potential attacker to bypass the file integrity check via a timing attack. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.1.4.
AnalysisAI
Mojic prior to version 2.1.4 allows attackers to bypass HMAC-SHA256 file integrity verification through a timing attack against the CipherEngine's comparison function. The vulnerability stems from use of a standard equality operator (!=== in JavaScript) instead of constant-time comparison during decryption, enabling an attacker with local file access to forge or tamper with emoji-encoded files. …
