TITLE:
Secure Computing SmartFilter Information Disclosure

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34390

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34390/

DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been discovered in Secure Computing SmartFilter,
which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose
potentially sensitive information.

The security issue is caused due to certain files (e.g. config.txt
and admin_backup.xml) being stored with insecure permissions in the
server\config\ directory. This can be exploited to e.g. disclose the
password of the HTTP proxy or authentication server.

The security issue is confirmed in SmartFilter Web Gateway Security
4.2.1.00. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted users only.
