privilege escalation vulnerabilities.");

"The version of the Altiris Client Agent (aclient) installed on the
remote host reportedly is susceptible to a shatter attack that could
allow a local user to elevate his or her privileges on the affected
system.

In addition, the Altiris Deployment Solution reportedly stores the
AClient password in system memory. By dumping system memory for
AClient.exe, a local user could potentially recover the password and
use that to gain access to the local agent admin interface, which in
turn could allow for code execution with system level privileges.");
