Root Cause Analysis
- The advisory explicitly names 'AesEncrypt' as the vulnerable function
- CWE-327 indicates use of broken cryptography, suggesting ECB mode or insecure configuration
- Common AES implementation flaws in Go include missing authentication (GCM mode not used) and IV mismanagement
- The pattern matches known vulnerabilities where 'AesEncrypt' naming indicates direct AES usage without proper mode specification
- File path is inferred from standard cryptographic utility locations in Go projects
