Summary

The NetWorker Management Console (NMC) in EMC NetWorker 8.0.x before 8.0.2.3, when using Active Directory/LDAP for authentication, allows remote authenticated users to discover cleartext administrator passwords via (1) unspecified NMC audit reports or (2) requests to RAP resources.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Signature Spoofing by Key Recreation
    An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by exploiting a cryptographic weakness in the signature algorithm or pseudorandom number generation and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.

descriptionThe version of EMC NetWorker is 8.x earlier than 8.0.2.3. As such, it is potentially affected by an information disclosure vulnerability. When the NetWorker Management Console is configured to use Active Directory/LDAP for authentication, an authenticated user may be able to see the AD/LDAP administrator password transmitted in cleartext.
