Descriptions
Pulse Secure Client 9.0R1 and 5.3RX before 5.3R5, when configured to authenticate VPN users during Windows Logon, can allow attackers to bypass Windows authentication and execute commands on the system with the privileges of Pulse Secure Client. The attacker must interrupt the client's network connectivity, and trigger a connection to a crafted proxy server with an invalid SSL certificate that allows certification-manager access, leading to the ability to browse local files and execute local programs.
Pulse Secure Client 9.0R1 y versiones 5.3RX anteriores a la 5.3R5, al configurarse para autenticar a usuarios VPN durante el inicio de sesión en Windows, puede permitir que los atacantes omitan la autenticación de Windows y ejecuten comandos en el sistema con los privilegios de Pulse Secure Client. El atacante debe interrumpir la red del cliente y desencadenar una conexión a un servidor proxy manipulado con un certificado SSL no válido que permite el acceso certification-manager. Esto conduce a la capacidad de navegar por archivos locales y ejecutar programas locales.
