TITLE:
Check Point VPN-1 SecuRemote / SecureClient Information Disclosure
Weakness

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA16127

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/16127/

CRITICAL:
Not critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
Local system

SOFTWARE:
Check Point VPN-1 SecureClient
http://secunia.com/product/2966/
Check Point VPN-1 SecuRemote
http://secunia.com/product/2180/

DESCRIPTION:
Sylvain Roger has discovered a weakness in SecuRemote / SecureClient,
which potentially can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain
knowledge of certain information.

The weakness is caused due to inappropriate default permissions on
the registry keys under
"HKLM/SOFTWARE/Checkpoint/SecureRemote/Credentials/". These keys are
used to store encrypted "Auto Local Logon" credentials and are
readable by all users on the system.

The weakness has been confirmed in version R56 HFA_03. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Disable the "Auto Local Logon" feature (disabled by default).

Grant only trusted users access to affected systems.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Sylvain Roger
