Description:
Dirk Loss has reported some vulnerabilities in Thintune OS, allowing malicious people to gain system access and local users to escalate their privileges.
1) A process is listening on port 25702/TCP allowing malicious people to connect using the password "jstwo". The process provides access to certain administrative functionality including a root shell.
2) Certain usernames and passwords used for connecting to remote servers are stored in clear text.
3) It is possible to open a local root shell "lshell" on the client by pressing "CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+DEL" and entering the password "maertsJ".
4) The Phoenix browser is executed as "root" effectively allowing any user to read arbitrary local files or launch the "lshell".
The vulnerabilities have been reported in Thintune OS 2.4.38. Other versions may also be affected.
