CVE-2008-3288
The Server Authentication Module in EMC Dantz Retrospect Backup Server 7.5.508 uses a "weak hash algorithm," which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to recover passwords.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
