Description:
Sylvain Roger has reported a weakness in IBM Access Connections, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain knowledge of certain information or manipulate it.
The weakness is caused due to inappropriate permissions on the "\BaseNamedObjects\QCONDB" shared section, which is used by the QCWICON.EXE and QCTRAY.EXE processes. This can be exploited by non-privileged users to disclose or modify various information (e.g. connection profiles, wireless SSID, obfuscated WEP key).
The weakness has been reported in version 3.3. Other versions may also be affected.
