Description:
Suramya Tomar has discovered a security issue in Trillian, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.
The problem is that user credentials for Yahoo! mail accounts are stored in a world-readable HTML document inside the "users\default\cache" directory in the installation directory.
The security issue has been confirmed in Trillian Basic 3.1 (build 121) and has also been reported in versions 3.0 and 3.1 (Basic/Pro). Other versions may also be affected.
