Descriptions
Unlock.exe in Media Encryption EPM Explorer in Check Point Endpoint Security through E80.50 does not associate password failures with a device ID, which makes it easier for physically proximate attackers to bypass the device-locking protection mechanism by overwriting DVREM.EPM with a copy of itself after each few password guesses.
Unlock.exe en Media Encryption EPM Explorer de Check Point Endpoint Security hasta la versión E80.50 no asocia fallos en la introducción de contraseña junto a un identificador del dispositivo, lo que hace más sencillo a atacantes físicamente próximos evadir mecanismos de protección device-locking mediante la sobreescritura del DVREM.EPM con una copia de sí mismo, después de algunos intentos de adivinación de contraseña.
Checkpoint Endpoint Security Media Encryption Explorer version 4.97.2 (Endpoint Security R73) contains two issues which can help to bypass the failed password attempts limit established in the password policy.
