Description:
Four different vulnerabilities has been identified in older TrendMicro products.

TrendMicro Officescan password bypass
Certain scripts in /officescan/cgi are not protected with passwords, one being cgiMasterPwd.exe, this allows malicious user to create new passwords for the Officescan management page.

TrendMicro Virus Control System memory exhausting
Each request of /tvcs/activesupport.exe will consume 2.5MB of memory, it will take up to 5 minutes before it terminates and frees the memory.

TrendMicro Scanmail password bypass
This has been called a "backdoor", request /smg_Smxcfg30.exe?vcc=3560121183d3 and you will not be prompted for a password.

TrendMicro Virus Control System log collector
Request /tvcs/getservers.exe?action=selects1
Follow step 2-4 and download a zip file with the TVCS password and the service username and password.

Solution:
It is recommended to upgrade to newer versions which do not suffer these vulnerabilities.

We recommend that you implement an extra level of filtering, so that access to these administrative services only is possible from specific IP addresses.
