Title: Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution Domain Credential Unauthorized Access Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution is software for deploying and managing servers, desktops, notebooks, thin clients, and handheld devices from a centralized location. It is available for Microsoft Windows.
Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution is prone to a vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to gain access to the affected application. This issue occurs within the 'axengine.exe' service, which listens on TCP port 402. The application allows attackers to gain access to domain credentials without proper authorization.
In addition, the encryption algorithm has a weakness. It lacks a salt, allowing the attacker to decrypt the domain credentials.
The attacker can exploit this issue to gain unauthorized access to the affected application.
