Description

 Zeus Web Server contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized password exposure. It is possible to gain access to MD5 hashed passwords in the default file '/usr/local/zeus/admin/website' as they are base64 encoded, which may lead to a loss of confidentiality.

Classification

 Location: Local Access Required
Attack Type: Cryptographic
Impact: Loss of Confidentiality
Exploit: Exploit Unknown

Technical

 Here is a sample '/usr/local/zeus/admin/website' file :
modules!access!users!admin yoEPUmukiYLrPvz4jqBeJQ==

Once base64 decoded "yoEPUmukiYLrPvz4jqBeJQ==" reveals "81ca 520f a46b 8289 3eeb f8fc a08e 255e" which is the MD5 hash of password 'admrox' with byte inversion.

Solution

 Currently, there are no known upgrades, patches, or workarounds available to correct this issue.
