使用ARCServe備份資料的網友注意了~
最近ARCServe被發現密碼以明文的方式存於檔案之中,其中可能包含了Administrator的密碼,盜用者有可能因此獲得系統權限,請小心 !!
詳細內容如下:
The default install of ARCServe for NT creates a hidden share on Windows NT machines when it is installed.
The name of this share is ARCSERVE$.
The permissions of the share allow all users in a domain to map this share. However, this is not the worst part.
Within the share is a file named aremote.dmp. The full path is ARCSERVE$\DR\<NAME of SERVER>\aremote.dmp.
In the aremote.dmp file, the account name that runs the backup is in cleartext within this file. Also, a little further
within the file, the password for the account is in cleartext.
Seeing as how the account that performs backups can access system files, this is very dangerous. Some places run their
backups as the NT domain administrator account.
