DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Symantec AppStream and Symantec
Workspace Streaming, which can be exploited by malicious people to
bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability is caused due to the client not properly verifying
the authenticity of a server, which can be exploited to impersonate a
legitimate server and e.g. upload and execute arbitrary files on the
client.

The vulnerability is reported in Symantec AppStream 5.2.x and
Symantec Workspace Streaming 6.1.x prior to 6.1 SP4.

SOLUTION:
Upgrade or update to Symantec Workspace Streaming 6.1 SP4.
