Description of the vulnerability
The Citrix Password Manager product manages authentication of users. Each user authenticates on Citrix Password Manager, and can then connect to another service requiring an authentication. The second login and password ("secondary credentials") is provided by Citrix Password Manager.
The administrator can configure Citrix Password Manager in order to forbid users to have access to their secondary credentials.
However, a vulnerability of Citrix Password Manager can be used by a user to read his own secondary credentials. Technical details are unknown.
An authenticated attacker can therefore directly connect to the service using the second login and password. |
