Description

Kerio MailServer, Personal Firewall, and WinRoute Firewall contain a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized password exposure. It is possible to gain access to plain text passwords when an attacker knows at least one valid password and can connect to the remote administration port. Passwords that are shorter than 6 characters can be easily brute forced, which may lead to a loss of confidentiality.
