CVE-2002-0324
CVSS v2.0
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Greymatter versions 1.21c and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to read a cleartext password and gain administrative privileges. This is achieved by guessing the name of a gmrightclick-*.reg file, which contains the administrator name and password in cleartext, and then retrieving the file from the web server before the Greymatter administrator performs a "Clear And Exit" action.
Recommendations
For Greymatter versions 1.21c and earlier, consider disabling the Bookmarklet feature until a fix is available to prevent exploitation. Additionally, restrict access to gmrightclick-*.reg files to minimize the risk of unauthorized access to administrative credentials.
