Description

SafeNet SoftRemote VPN Client contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is due to the IreIKE.exe process decrypting VPN (pre-shared keys) passwords upon startup and storing them as plaintext in memory. This allows for disclosure of the local users' VPN password information resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
