May 15, 2008

-- Affected Vendors:
Symantec

-- Affected Products:
Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution

-- TippingPoint(TM) IPS Customer Protection:
TippingPoint IPS customers have been protected against this
vulnerability by Digital Vaccine protection filter ID 5936.
For further product information on the TippingPoint IPS, visit:

http://www.tippingpoint.com

-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows attackers to remotely obtain domain
credentials on vulnerable installations of Symantec Altiris Deployment
Solution. User
interaction is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the axengine.exe service listening by
default on TCP port 402. The service allows a remote client to request
encrypted domain credentials without authentication. The encryption
lacks a salt allowing an attacker with a local installation of Altiris
Deployment Solution to easily decrypt the credentials.

-- Vendor Response:
Symantec has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More
details can be found at:
