MS09-007: Vulnerability in SChannel Could Allow Spoofing (960225)
high Nessus Plugin ID 35823
Language:
Synopsis
It may be possible to spoof user identities.Description
The Secure Channel (SChannel) authentication component included in the remote version of Windows does not sufficiently validate certain Transport Layer Security (TLS) handshake messages to ensure that a client does in fact have access to the private key linked to a certificate used for authentication. An attacker who has access to the public key component of a user's certificate may be able to leverage this issue to authenticate as that user against services such as web servers that use certificate-based authentication or to impersonate that user.Solution
Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista and 2008.See Also
