Lifecycle Timeline
5Description
A vulnerability was identified in Enter Software Iperius Backup up to 8.7.2. This impacts an unknown function of the file IperiusAccounts.ini. Such manipulation leads to use of hard-coded cryptographic key . The attack must be carried out locally. This attack is characterized by high complexity. The exploitability is said to be difficult. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. Upgrading to version 8.7.4 will fix this issue. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component. The vendor was contacted early, responded in a very professional manner and quickly released a fixed version of the affected product.
Analysis
Iperius Backup versions up to 8.7.2 use a hard-coded cryptographic key for IperiusAccounts.ini file encryption, allowing local authenticated attackers with low privileges to decrypt stored credentials and extract sensitive account information. The vulnerability requires high attack complexity and local access, resulting in a CVSS 2.0 score with low confidentiality impact; a publicly available proof-of-concept exploit exists, and vendor-released patch version 8.7.4 fixes the issue.
