CVE-2012-2146
Published: 26 August 2012
Elixir 0.8.0 uses Blowfish in CFB mode without constructing a unique initialization vector (IV), which makes it easier for context-dependent users to obtain sensitive information and decrypt the database.
From the Ubuntu Security Team
It was discovered that Elixir fails to construct a unique initialization vector (IV) with Blowfish. An attacker could possibly use this to make decryption easier.
