Zoho · Manageengine Servicedesk Plus · CVE-2011-1509
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus (SDP) versions 8012 and earlier
**Description**
The issue concerns the encryption of passwords in cookies. It is related to the `encryptPassword` function in Login.js, which uses a Caesar cipher for encryption. This makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.
**Recommendations**
For ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus (SDP) versions 8012 and earlier, as a temporary workaround, consider disabling the `encryptPassword` function in Login.js until a proper encryption method is implemented. Restrict access to sensitive information and network traffic to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
