Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects Lansweeper lsrunase 2.0 and lsencrypt 2.0, which use RC4 encryption with a hardcoded 142-byte static key array to encrypt credentials.

An 8-character prefix is stored in cleartext alongside the ciphertext, which allows an attacker with local access to recover any encrypted password to plaintext.

The recovery requires only a single SHA-1 hash and RC4 decryption operation, with no brute force needed.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with local access can recover encrypted passwords in plaintext without needing to perform brute force attacks.

This compromises the confidentiality of stored credentials, potentially allowing unauthorized access to systems or data protected by those credentials.
