Discussion

Tarantella Enterprise 3 Install.CGI Application Server Password Saving Vulnerability

Enterprise 3 is a system administration package distributed and maintained by Tarantella Incorporated. It is available for the Unix and Linux platforms.

The install.cgi script does not correctly handle some configurations. The function to prevent the saving of configuration information such as passwords, which works correctly in the Java/Javascript package included with Tarantella, does not work properly in the install.cgi script. Because of this, it is possible for a user to save configuration data, such as the application server passwords, to their profile.
