Descriptions

Symantec pcAnywhere 12.5 uses weak default permissions for the "Symantec\pcAnywhere\Hosts" folder, which allows local users to gain privileges by inserting a superuser .cif (aka caller or CallerID) file into the folder, and then using a pcAnywhere client to login as a local administrator.

Symantec pcAnywhere 12.5 utiliza unos permisos por defecto débiles para la carpeta "Symantec\pcAnywhere\Hosts", lo cual permite a un usuario local ganar privilegios a través de la insercción de un superusuario archivo .cif (también conocido como llamador o CallerID) dentro de la carpeta, y por lo tanto utilizando un cliente pcAnywhere entrar como administrador local.
