EMC RSA Archer 6.6 < 6.6 P8 / 6.7 < 6.7 P8 / 6.8 < 6.8 P5 / 6.9 < 6.9 P2 Insecure Credential Storage

medium Nessus Plugin ID 150048

Synopsis

An application running on the remote host is affected by an insecure credential storage vulnerability.

Description

The version of EMC RSA Archer running on the remote web server is 6.6.x prior to 6.6.0.8 (6.6 P8), 6.7.x prior to 6.7.0.8 (6.7 P8), 6.8.x prior to 6.8.0.5 (6.8 P5) or 6.9.x prior to 6.9.0.2 (6.9 P2). It is, therefore, affected by an insecure credential storage vulnerability with Archer Tableau integration. A malicious attacker with access to the Tableau workbook file may obtain access to credential information to use it in further attacks.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to 6.6 P8, 6.7 P8, 6.8 P5, 6.9 P2, or later.
