Quick assessment

Affected
jahlives openssl_encrypt
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Tobi OpenSSL Encrypt是Tobi个人开发者的一款基于 Python 的文件加密工具。 Tobi OpenSSL Encrypt 1.4.8及之前版本存在加密问题漏洞，该漏洞源于通过桌面GUI设置界面的“combined certificate and private key”PEM字段将mTLS客户端私钥以明文形式存储在全局可读（0644）的SharedPreferences文件中，可能导致本地攻击者读取暴露的私钥。

Vulnerability Title
openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Plaintext Private Key Storage
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
openssl_encrypt (pip package openssl-encrypt) versions 1.4.8 and earlier store an mTLS client private key in cleartext within a world-readable (0644) SharedPreferences file via the desktop GUI's Settings screen 'combined certificate and private key' PEM field. A local attacker with file system access can read the exposed private key. Version 1.4.9 writes the PEM to a dedicated 0600 file, keeps only its path in SharedPreferences, and migrates/scrubs existing cleartext values.
