Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in VPN-1 SecuRemote/SecureClient NGX R60 and NGAI R56, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability is caused due to the application storing user credentials within the Windows registry (HKLM\Software\Checkpoint\SecuRemote, subkey "Credentials") without proper permission settings. This can be exploited to disclose and use the credentials of other users.
Successful exploitation reportedly requires that caching of credentials is enabled.
The vulnerability is reported in VPN-1 SecuRemote/SecureClient NGX R60 and NGAI R56 for Windows.
Solution:
Apply "VPN-1 SecuRemote/SecureClient NGX R60 HFA_02 Supplement 2".
