TITLE:
Microsoft Windows SChannel Authentication Bypass

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34215

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34215/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows, which can be
exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security mechanisms.

The vulnerability is caused due to insufficient validation of certain
TLS (Transport Layer Security) handshake messages by the SChannel
(Secure Channel) authentication component during certificate-based
authentication. This can be exploited to bypass authentication using
the public component of a user’s authentication credential.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.
