Description: Daniel C. Litzenberger has reported a weakness in DAR, which can potentially be exploited by malicious people to disclose certain information.
The weakness is caused due to an error in the blowfish implementation, which leads to frequent IV collisions. This can potentially be exploited to disclose information about the encrypted data via watermarking attacks.
