Title: Microsoft Windows 2000 NTFS With Macintosh Client Directory Permission Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
When Macintosh clients use NTFS volumes on Windows 2000 servers, a vulnerability exists. Under certain circumstances, the Macintosh client may modify inherited NTFS permissions when a subdirectory is created.
This may result in additional permissions being granted to groups such as Everyone, allowing additional users to read, write and execute files contained within the directory. The additional permissions are granted automatically when the sub-directory is created.
Other editions of Windows 2000 running NTFS may also be vulnerable.
Affected Products:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP1
