QID 379270: Multi-Remote Next Generation Connection Manager (mRemoteNG) Password Dumper Vulnerability

Multi-Remote Next Generation Connection Manager (mRemoteNG) is free software that enables users to store and manage multi-protocol connection configurations to remotely connect to systems. mRemoteNG configuration files can be stored in an encrypted state on disk. mRemoteNG version less than v1.76.21 and less than 1.77.4-dev loads configuration files in plain text into memory (after decrypting them if necessary) at application start-up, even if no connection has been established yet.

Affected Version :
mRemoteNG version prior to v1.76.21

QID Detection Logic (Authenticated):
This qid checks for file version of mRemoteNG.exe

It allows attackers to access contents of configuration files in plain text through a memory dump and thus compromise user credentials when no custom password encryption key has been set.

  • CVSS V3 rated as High - 7.5 severity.
  • CVSS V2 rated as Critical - 10 severity.
  • Solution
    Update to mRemoteNG greater than v1.77.3.1784-NB when a fix has been released, please refer to advisory here..
