Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Cisco Secure Services Client (CSSC), which could be exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information or gain elevated privileges.
The first issue is due to an error in the help facility within the supplicant Graphical User Interface (GUI), which could allow malicious users to execute arbitrary commands with SYSTEM privileges.
The second issue is due to an unspecified error within the supplicant application, which could be exploited by malicious users to gain SYSTEM privileges.
The third vulnerability is due to insecure default Discretionary Access Control Lists (DACL) for the connection client GUI ("ConnectionClient.exe"), which could allow unprivileged users to inject a thread under "ConnectionClient.exe" running with SYSTEM privileges.
The fourth issue is due to an unspecified error within the method used in parsing commands, which could be exploited by malicious users to launch a process with SYSTEM privileges.
The fifth vulnerability is due to a design error where TTLS CHAP, TTLS MSCHAP, TTLS MSCHAPv2, TTLS PAP, MD5, GTC, LEAP, PEAP MSCHAPv2, PEAP GTC, and FAST passwords are logged in cleartext in the application log files, which could be exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information.
