Descriptions

The default configuration of the SMTP component in Websense Email Security 6.1 through 7.3 enables weak SSL ciphers in the "SurfControl plc\SuperScout Email Filter\SMTP" registry key, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network and then conducting a brute-force attack against encrypted session data.

La configuración por defecto en el componente SMTP en Websense Email Security v6.1 hasta la v7.3 utiliza cifrado SSL débil en la clave de registro en "SurfControl plc\SuperScout Email Filter\SMTP", lo cual hace posible para un atacante remoto obtener información sensible por medio del pinchado de la red y la realización de un ataque por fuerza bruta contra los datos encriptados de la sesión.
