Description

RSA SecureID ACE/Server contains a flaw that allows any local user on the system to add, delete or modify SecureID files. The flaw is due to incorrect permissions being set for the /usr/local/ace/data directory during installation. This would allow users to disable authentication, redirect authentication requests, compromise logins or more.

Classification

Unknown or Incomplete

Solution

Upgrade to version 2.2.1 or higher, as it has been reported to fix this vulnerability. It is also possible to correct the flaw by implementing the following workaround: Change the permissions of the 'data' directory to at least 775 and files to 664.
