VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/32554/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass

WHERE:
Local system

SOFTWARE:
Novell Access Manager 3.x
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/13173/

DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in Novell Access Manager Identity
Server, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to bypass
certain security restrictions.

The security issue is caused due to the server improperly terminating
a session established by using an X509 certificate. This can be
exploited to gain access to the session via the same browser
instance.

Successful exploitation requires that X509 authentication is enabled
and that the attacker has access to the victim's browser instance.

The security issue is reported in Novell Access Manager version 3
Support Pack 4. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Close the browser after logging out. Please see the vendor's advisory
for additional workaround information.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the vendor.
