Description:
Cyrillium Security has reported a weakness in FoolProof Security, which can be exploited by certain malicious users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.

The problem is caused due to an error within the password recovery feature. A user with knowledge of the "Control" password and the password recovery key can exploit this to disclose the "Administrator" password.

The weakness has been reported in version 3.9.x for Windows 95/98/Me. Other versions are reportedly not affected.
