Insecure usage of Version 1 UUID/GUID
Description
A UUID (Universal Unique Identifier) also known as GUID is a 128-bit value used to uniquely identify an object or entity on the internet. This web application is using Version 1 UUIDs.
Version 1 UUIDs are generated in a predictable manner based on:
- The current time
- A randomly generated "clock sequence" which remains constant between GUIDs during the uptime of the generating system
- A "node ID", which is generated based on the system's MAC address if it is available
Remediation
Replace <strong>Version 1 UUIDs</strong> with <strong>Version 4 UUIDs</strong>.
