| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Vidalia bundle versions prior to 0.1.2.18
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and modify configuration due to insecure settings in the Privoxy configuration file. Specifically, the
enable-remote-toggle and enable-edit-actions settings are enabled, which can be exploited by attackers.Recommendations
For Vidalia bundle versions prior to 0.1.2.18, update to version 0.1.2.18 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the
enable-remote-toggle and enable-edit-actions settings in the Privoxy configuration file until a patch is available. Restrict access to the Privoxy configuration file to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
