Description:
Charalambous Glafkos and George Nicolaou have discovered a security issue in No-IP Windows Dynamic Update Client (DUC), which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive information.
The security issue is caused due to the application storing user credentials within the Windows registry (HKLM\Software\Vitalwerks\DUC\) without proper permission settings. This can be exploited to disclose e.g. the "Username", "TrayPassword", and "Password" of the DUC user.
The security issue is confirmed in No-IP Windows DUC version 2.2.1. Other versions may also be affected.
